TL Emmet: -reads that the Unicosm original Timeline was destroyed -
I...i didn’t do that did i?.....( remembering his early days as TimeLord and the one or two timelines he destroyed by accident-then fixed-)
M-must be a naturally occurring destruction haha ! So wasn’t me i don’t remember this !!!!
-nervous chuckles and checks his data base-
::Note: So like i found the Unicosm blog and read that pin and thought it be funny my TimeLord Boy freaking out on if he actually fucked up or not on this timeline , though most likely he just never seen or heard of this place till now )
I’m just gonna put this entirely useless medical freakout under a cut because it is about an irrelevant skin infection and is also gross. no pictures though, we’re fine there. (it is basically a zit, but, I have Trauma here.)
sighhhh i had a lil MRSA infection on one finger like TEN Years ago and today I have a little weird blister RIGHT NEXT TO THE SCAR and i can't stop freaking out because like am i going to go to urgent care for what is essentially a zit?? but if it's mrsa it will eat me. AUGH.
fun note: the previous experience with MRSA is what made me develop/discover my sulfa allergy. why yes, i had full-body hives, it was so great!
well at this point it is just a very slightly swollen red area that’s sensitive, so I guess I will just monitor it. It began the exact same way, too-- too much time with wet hands from doing dishes and washing hands gave me a tiny eczema flare and blistered the skin and then one of those tiny blisters between my fingers got infected! Maybe if I cover it in neosporin and put a band-aid on it’ll go away???
HILARIOUS that an extended era of over-strenuous handwashing in a time of paranoia about microbes should have set me up for this, but it just goes to show you that bacteria have no time for your shit. TAKE CARE OF THE SKIN OF YOUR HANDS, my friends. Take CARE of it. Your skin is a really really really important barrier.
I suppose I am glad that the finger I tore a hunk out of with a serrated bread knife two weeks ago is on the same hand but apparently impervious to bacteria, because if that enormous gouge had gotten infected I’d probably be dead by now. It’s nicely closed-up, and will be a permanent scar-- it healed with a divot because I really tore actual flesh out of there that’s gone now-- but it’s closed, and that’s what I care about.
Well ladies and gents I might be on "Customer vs Employee breakouts" on YouTube tonight... LOL Some fucking customer was recording me While working Lols. So if you guys see "Xanax Boy Worker cussed me out" that'll be me.
Dear AD, what happens if an artist, who you, trust have an art block/insecurity issues that affects the work, right after he/she gets a job from you?
Everyone has problems sometime. The most important thing is to stay in communication with your art director. Artists get into trouble and wait until the deadline (or even worse - after the deadline) to let the AD know and then it’s crisis time. That bridge is afire. You need to work with your AD to solve any problems that may come up. And you want to give them as much time as possible to find alternative solutions if it comes to that.
Artists are scared to speak up because it might make them look bad…but NOTHING is going to make you look worse than blowing deadlines without communicating.
As far as insecurity and creative blocks go: you’re a professional, and you should have a toolbox full of ways to get around these issues when they come up. Being creative on demand is part of the job. Sure, some jobs are going to be harder than others, but remember your head work is as important as your art work. Train your mind just like you train your hand. Don’t just practice when you feel like it. Practice especially when you don’t feel like it, and that will be much more useful to you on professional jobs.
