Hi! o/ welcome!
First, you should probably know the posts on this blog are like 95% queued. I might appear online when in fact itās been days.
Lastly (and most importantly) the pfp by @thisislifenao !!! go check her stuff out she's amazing!!
Welcome to my little corner on this website! Hope you enjoy your stay :p
Honestly? I'm regblogging whatever i feel like. Currently there will be Legends of Avantris things on here, long with the usual Hermitcraft & trafficblr that Iāve been up to the most in the past. Be assured there will be bunch of other things as well from time to time (multifandom n tumblr things in general).
Do not at all feel scared to like or reblog or dive into old, old posts btw, i just think it's fun whenever i see someone take a deep dive in my (mainly) reposts
Tags n other things under the cut:
This is mainly for me to help keep track of things, finding things, but does gives a good idea of the type of stuff you can expect from here too, so ye :p
* Note this is not even close to perfect or anything, but I'm making an attempt at making my blog navigatable somewhat at least xp
I explained the concept of "blorbo from my shows" to my 71 year old immigrant grandfather because I referenced it in passing and I thought nothing of it, until today when he said "I think I'll watch peaky blinders tonight and see my blorbo from my shows" referring, of course, to Cillian Murphy playing Tommy Shelby
English isn't his first language so he's not super in touch with modern slang, so I've been accidentally teaching him to talk like a tumblr user. His favorite thing to say lately is "me when I'm a little hater" when he's like talking shit about the neighbor's son
I explained the āx before gta6ā meme to my immigrant father and he, in turn, explained to me how back in his day in Romania, they had the same type of joke, except instead of it being gta6, it was about the imminent death of a singer named GicÄ Petrescu, who everyone was continuously shocked by because he refused to die. Every time a momentous event happened people would say, in essence: āThis happened and GicÄ Petrescu hasnāt even died yet?!?ā
So. He understood the gta6 meme immediately because they apparently had the same thing in Romania when he was young, except way, way more morbid
It bothers me so much that the healthcare system relies so much on the patient's ability to advocate for themselves, organize their history, and be so persistent against every medical āprofessionalā who says thereās nothing wrong/they can do. But so many struggle with fatigue, brain fog, and face such ingrained systemic barriers, that the people who need and deserve help and support canāt access it.
I saw something recently that resonated with me: āAccess shouldn't depend on who has the energy to fight for it.ā And Iāve never agreed with anything more.
All these industries with shortages of workers and they canāt figure out why.
Im proposing the hypothesis that the reason we donāt have enough doctors/pilots/bus drivers/etc is that maybe, just maybe, having your entire industry function as a lifelong hazing ritual isnāt the best recruiting strategy.
Doctors are subject to 8 years of post-secondary education and are forced to work 48 hour shifts.
Pilots and other transportation workers have absurd hours of service requirements that start your rest period as āthe moment you shut the vehicle downā and can be as short as 9 hours in some cases.
Railroad workers have to be available on-call 6 days a week and be ready within two hours notice. They donāt get sick time.
Retail workers have to keep a veneer of politeness against any and all abuse or they can be fired.
Truck drivers get paid by mileage and rarely see pay for shipper or receiver delays.
Work should not be designed to make you a miserable burnout and yet here we are.
I passed a flower shop next to a tattoo shop and at first I laughed because I thought it was ironic and then i freaked because IMAGINE YOUR OTP IN A FLORIST/TATTOO ARTIST AU
jkr is literally posting upskirt photos to her social media. when will it finally get through to harry potter fans that their support makes her feel confident and correct enough to do things like this
If the holocaust denialism SOMEHOW wasn't enough for you to shut up about your favourite kids book as an adult; JK Rowling just committed a sex crime IRL against a transgender woman.
