Good luck kid you're in a reverse beauty and beast situation. Do not let that princely motherfucker fall in love with your inner humanity or the spell will fail and you'll turn human again
honestly I hate “can you pet the dog?!?” not for any of the common reasons but because it was initially interesting as a proposition of “can you interact with the world in a way that is not within the primary mechanical loop” and that very quickly fell away to being “well now any indie developer making a game has to have a pet the dog button or they’re going to get letters”
One of my dream projects has an NPC with a dog, and if you try to pet it, the owner tells you not to do that. If you try again, it bites you and you take damage. I want to do this entirely because I genuinely believe that this would make me feel way more grounded in the world than any “click button to see cute animation” would ever do, and also it would be really funny to have a game where people lose their runs because they tried to pet a dog they were told not to pet
I and some colleagues were talking about how we wish everyone could see the safety videos that our company was showing us, because I don’t think most people understand how traffic works in a truck. So here’s some things we wish everyone on the road knew.
- we’re not kidding about tailgating. If you’re right behind us on a straight highway? Chances are we have NO IDEA you’re there, which means we can’t anticipate any of your movements. Plus slowing down takes multiple downshifts, so we might start decreasing speed way earlier than you expect.
- We’re not kidding about any of our blind spots. WE CAN’T SEE YOU, GUYS.
- That bit about slowing down taking a while? The same goes for when you’re in front of us. Don’t cut off a truck. Oh god, PLEASE don’t cut off a truck. If you cut me off, I’m not irritated, I’m terrified. For YOU. It can take 7 to 9 seconds for us to stop. DON’T CUT OFF TRUCKS.
- Before you get mad about how slow we’re going on the highway, keep in mind that many companies govern their vehicles so they literally CAN’T go over 60 or 65. This is a good thing, I promise. Because…
- Do you know what happens when a car meets a truck in an accident? The car gets totaled and the truck needs a new coat of paint. You will not win this fight. I know nobody likes getting stuck behind a big dumb truck, but it’s not worth your life.
We are trying our best to protect you from our 80,000 pound death machines. Please help us out.
If anyone can help, I'd appreciate you reading this message. I'm Black, queer, trans, and disabled. My situation is always dire as social support and familial support are not enough to keep me and my immediately family from going without. Further details below.
I manage the finances in my household for myself and 3 other adults. Two of whom are autistic with low-support needs. The other is a parent struggling to find a work from home job, given the wear and tear from being a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) for nearly 40 years. She helps take care of me given my limited physical mobility.
We attempted to get her paid through Medicaid, but I don't meet their strict guidelines for long-term support. The part-time support through social services is unavailable. (The waiting list only moves when someone leaves/ends their services. And the waiting list is long, so-)
We live in public housing with my son's SSI income. But it's limited when it comes to paying for transportation, delivery (since my neighborhood is so dangerous only DoorDash will deliver), and household items, including laundry. Laundry which hasn't been done in months.
Fortunately, me and my brother's SNAP benefits haven't been interrupted. However, due to the sudden stomach ulcer (I only realized I had when drinking cold water made my stomach cramp for 30 mins and my mom took stock of my symptoms), I have to be on a very restrictive diet without becoming incredibly sick. Which is pretty expensive. I also am getting over a really bad dental infection which sent me to the hospital past midnight on Saturday and I don't know if Medicaid will cover or how much they will cover a dentist.
This is ignoring my environmental factors. I have no control over the temperature of my home. People frequently smoke weed under my window, the apartment underneath mind and in the stairwells of the building. This place isn't gated. It not only can give me a migraine, it makes me too nauseous to function. I end up wearing a mask and spraying air freshener in my room. The constant yelling and fights are loud and can carry on for hours. The gun violence goes from early morning to late night, often during broad daylight too. There's more, but the environment is always stressful and anxiety inducing.
It's always hard for me, always has been. I always need help. The most helpful things would be:
Gift Cards for:
Lyft (would help A LOT)
Food Lion
Kroger
Any major chains in Richmond, VA
Walmart
Amazon
You can also send money through:
CashApp: AcePeets
Paypal: (on request, DM me)
Venmo: (on request, DM me)
For any other questions, feel free to DM me. Or make a fic request. I can't say when it'd be done, given everything, but it'd be on the list.
It's my birthday tomorrow, which is usually the hardest day of the year for me. Thank you for those who read and share. 🤎
