thinking about how the very first impression of magus for many people is via my posts. and then they go and watch the show. it must be like when your friend gushes about their amazing hot new boyfriend and you meet the guy and he sucks so bad. except magus is literally cute and wonderful and lovely and
what is this. it's the stupidest phenomenon ever
I'M SCREAMING. wow magus you have such beautiful fur dangling face things
title of this is just ‘lesbian sex’
lot of terfs have been reblogging this so I may as well publicly state that the woman on the right is modeled with permission after my transfemme friend. if you relate to it as strongly as many of you claim in the tags I urge you to reflect upon that with empathy and compassion about the depth of experiences you truly do share with trans women.
otherwise fuck off I guess. my art is not fuel for your hatred.
Hitomi and Hitch !
btw,,, their height difference has me flustered
Honestly, Tvyek is pretty miraculous. It’s permeable to water vapor but not to water, it’s nearly impossible to tear, but can be easily cut. It’s cheap and made entirely without binding chemicals. In addition to being used for wristbands, it’s used to wrap construction sites to keep out water during construction, for tear-resistant envelopes at Fed-Ex, coveralls for mechanics, and my wallet, actually.
Fun tip, though it looks like paper, Tyvek is plastic, and cannot be recycled with paper.
holy fuc
I didn’t even know it had a name
Well it looks like the issue that our landlord refused to deal with last year has come to bite us in the ass and if he tries to blame this on us I will end up on the fucking news.
So when we moved in to this appartment within the first month we had to call and let our landlord know that the ceiling was leaking while it rained. He sent someone by the next day and they fixed it, but that was the first time it had rained since we moved in, and the unit had sat empty for a while before that, so we don't know how bad the leaks may have gotten before we showed up to notice them. All that to say, idk what water damage the roof could have, but at the time we assumed minmal to none and put it outta mind.
Then at the start of last winter we noticed that when we turned the heater on the whole house got sticky and gross and humid and there was a musty fish smell coming from the vent, and we told our landlord who sent like four different people over and while they all told us something different the main story turned to "the insulation around the split unit and vents is/was at one point soaked and that's causing the smell" and our landlord proceeded to blame it on us for using a humidifier sometimes bcs I have asthma and allergies. Apparently the humidifer was supposed to be able to soak the insulation, which every HVAC guy did tell us was impossible but they never contradicted the landlord when he said it was our fault even though again, I cannot stress enough, every HVAC guy said to our faces it was impossible for this to be our fault, up to stressing that we could be running three humidifiers 24/7 and it would STILL never do that. It's impossible for it to be us.
I assumed it was due to the leak from when we moved in bcs how could that possibly not be it? But nah, the humidifier is the problem, surely.
They replaced the split unit and said the insulation was all dried out, but the smell kept happening and tbh it was a warm winter and my POTs suddenly got a lot worse so we just stopped using the heater.
Last week I noticed a bit of a musty smell in the house, but the weather is changing and the monsoon is almost here so that wasn't that odd. I just assumed it would go away on it's own, but there was something about it that felt familiar in a way that bothered me.
Put it together yesterday when two fucking MASSIVE cockroaches crawled out of our ceiling!! In front of us!! That was the smell, our old place had a cockroach issue and had a similar stench. It was why when we moved we bought all new boxes and didn't bring any old ones with us.
Anyway, we killed them and threw them away and took the trash out, and then covered all the massive gaps between the rafters and wall with painter's tape and also have spent the last 24 hours cleaning in case it was us, but nah, it isn't. The few boxes we have currently have been out for a year, if it was us this would have happened a long time ago and it didn't, and while we have a lot of ADHD clutter I have lived with a hoarder before and I can assure you I do not leave fucking food trash laying around. None of the clutter is the kind of thing that attracts bugs. I am fucking meticulous about this.
What I am nearly fucking confident has happened, is that the first HVAC guy who told us the insulation in the split unit and around the vents was soaked and needed to be completely replaced because drying them would take days and the smell would still be stuck in the fiberglass anyway was right, and the water was from the LEAK and not our fucking dinky ass humidifier that we also stopped using and threw away. Our landlord did not like that idea, and as far as we know only replaced the split unit which did not get rid of the smell or the weird humidity issues we keep getting and now bugs are crawling out of the ceiling. He likely did not have his maintenance guys actually check for water pockets after the leak, he clearly is a "well it's fineee" kinda guy. Which tells me that whatever the fuck water has been up in there has just...stayed, and now started attracting insects, who are probably getting in through a hole somewhere the water caused, and all of this could have been avoided if he'd just done his fucking job last May and actually make sure the house is clean and undamaged and fit to fucking live in.
The thing that's scaring me is that he never backed down about the water being our fault for using the humidifier and again, the HVAC guys did not go to bat for us(though it's possible they had tried and he ignored them so they gave up and just tried to make it clear to us), so we know it wasn't us but he doesn't. And if he blames this on us, if there's like a lot of water damage, we could get evicted or something and idk how to prove this wasn't our fucking fault. We haven't used the humidifier since last year.
What I think needs to happen, based on the fact that this is not the only weird thing about this unit—the drain in the bathroom sink smells like ass every time we use it no matter how many times we clean, the dishwasher smells like gelatin or expired nailpolish and he replaced it and it still smells so bad we have to crack the window and point a fan at it when we open it so I don't get a migraine or throw up, there are huge gaps in between the rafters and ceiling, and tbh his idea of clean is not as good as it could be, he said he had the unit cleaned before we moved in after we saw it and no, nope the unit was still dirty and we had to clean everything ourselves, so fuck him for judging us if he does, he's clearly not got the kind of standards that allow for a high horse of that nature—but yeah I think he needs to put us up in a new unit/property of his and get some contractors down here to fix this place bcs I am like 90% convinced at this point that this place is not safe to live in and he has been ignoring signs of structural issues for a year if not almost certainly longer.
But that's still the scary part, because if the damage is that bad and he tries to blame it on us we're basically fucked, right? Like it wasn't us, it was NOT but I just. Hmm.
He has also completely ignored the original text and two follow up ones we sent about this trying to clarify that we will discuss this when he comes by and that's just freaking me out more. Idk if it's just old people brain or what but I don't know what to do if he blames this on us, especially since it could not be more obvious that this is NOT our fault.
But yeah. Uh. I'm going to go finish panic cleaning the last two things that are dirty and pray that this is easy and nothing awful happens. And also wonder if part of the reason my health has gotten this bad is bcs the house isn't safe to live in and our landlord did nothing about it for a year. And wish that things could just be simple and normal for once jesus christ.
WELP
Guess it could have gone worse, he didn't blame us at least, but he did say it's no big deal and that he'll call a guy this time but it's "the last time" <- his words, and next time if we have a bug issue we can call ourselves which is not how any of this works, and it is in fact his fucking job to deal with the bugs.
If I could be sure it was just two I wouldn't be worried but I KNOW that smell. Lived in it for seven years, and I also know I'm immune compromised and based on how I've been feeling sick every time I smell that I do also think I'm one of those folks who's allergic to cockroaches so like??? No??? You need to make sure there's not a fucking infestation???
Like what the fuck about "A year ago there was a massive leak when it rained and then the heater smelled like rot all winter even after you replaced it and now two HUGE FUCKASS COCKROACHES crawled out of the ceiling right where that crawlspace you just told us exists apparently is" does not scream get a person here now to do a full inspection????
He is sending someone just to spray and that's good bcs we are fucking talkikg to whoever comes, but after? Well, we're gonna make him hate us because we have decided enough shit is weird here that while our landlord is snowbirding we're calling the city and getting someone down here to make sure we're not living in a biohazard that this landlord has been ignoring all year while I'm in the throws of being diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder.
Ugh I am so fucking sick of this guy, he legit just doesn't ever want to do anything about anything and always says "Oh I've been a landlord here since the 90s had thousands of tenants no one ever complains we've only had a real cockroach infestation once in 30 years and it was due to a slob" as if that means ANYTHING. Climate change is crazy man!! You should ask chatGPT about it, it's humid all summer and hot all winter now!! You can't be acting like it's still the 90s!!! It's verifiably not!!!! I SHOULD KNOW I WAS BORN DURING THEM!!!
And no complaints doesn't mean shit. Just means no one thought they were worth bringing up to you.
Dude is just pissing me off. Wasted a whole day stressed behind "you complain to much" well bucko. Maybe you've never had neurodivergent tenants before but when it says in the lease "call me the second you notice a bug or you've violated our agreement" I'm going to assume if I don't call you when I see a bug I'm getting evicted. He seemed confused that I was following the lease that closely but rules is rules!!! RULES IS RULES!!! (I wanna test the put something up outside rule now tho to help those poor mourning doves who still have not successfully kept an egg alive for more than a day on my front porch rafters, like okay how much wiggle is there??)
And we're absolutely going to be buying a portable washing machine bcs I am not continuing to give him money for laundry if this is what he's gonna be like when I raise a very fucking serious concern like "this property is showing real signs of having habitability issues and you should do something about that maybe". It is possible to live here in Southern AZ and not have cockroaches, a dishwasher that doesn't smell like a migrane, and a bathroom sink that doesn't reek of sulphur. I've done it. This is not an inevitably.
At least the house is cleaner than it's been in a long time, not that it was really dirty but ya know. Cleaning nice.
(also this doesn't matter but least surprising 30 year old wife with an european accent ever)
Whenever I hear someone say "the woke mob" I have to stop myself from laughing because even today all I can think of is this fucking tweet

i hate it when game devs put “fixed several issues” in patch notes
no. tell me what you fixed. i wanna know what the glitch was.
you know those patch notes that are like “fixed an issue where if the player sat in a bush for too long, they’d become the size of a skyscraper”
i wanna read those. tell me those.
Adjusted value of Bees. Now that was a special one… because every item in the game had a minimum value, and a beehive was a container for bees, which each had a minimum value… which meant the moment one of your dwarves picked up a beehive, your entire fortress’ net worth skyrocketed… a value used in determining how powerful the foes that visit and try to murder you are.
Reblogging for the explanation of what “adjusted value of bees” actually means, because I know several folks following this blog have been wondering.
Okay but you’ve all forgotten the best Dwarf Fortress bug of all “Flying creatures give birth in midair, leading to tragedy”
Actually I lied it’s the one where after a major update werewolves and vampires started climbing the nearest tree and refusing to come down. It turned out that he’d given evil creatures the ability to sense each other, but forgotten to set a maximum range on it, so werewolves were aware Hell was underground and trying to flee by climbing
This has to be my favorite patch note ever
My fave dwarf fortress patch note is “i think i made fish too hardcore”. IIRC dwarf fortress has universal skills so everything that can swin has the swim skill. physical skills train strength, so increasing swimming will have a knock on positive effect for all physical skills. since fish are swimming all the time this meant fish were constantly raising strength and became unstoppable killing machines
do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets
her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.
remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.
thank you, Marsha. we remember you.
someone being a jerk: i have depression okay????
me, who also has depression:
The fine balance of being understanding of when someone’s going through a hard time, and calling them on their bullshit when they use it as an excuse to treat everyone around them like shit.
