Someone at work told me that going into freelance creative work is “not serious.”

I didn’t even know how to respond.

I keep thinking about what people mean when they say “serious.”

Is it stability? Money? Routine? Or just something that looks acceptable from the outside?

Because creating something — writing, drawing, building your own path — doesn’t feel unserious to me at all.

It feels terrifying. And real. And important.

Maybe it’s not the safest path. But it’s the only one that feels like mine.

Boring facts (in my head) about parent David Hollander:

New people at work when introduced to him go "oh, like Shane Hollander" and he BEAMS at that and says "Yep!"

Has a picture of Shane on his desk and the same new people think its a joke until an old timer who probably met Shane at a bring your kid to work day clued them in

Would not let Yuna touch the college fund they set up for Shane until he was out of his rookie contract. What if Shane changed his mind about hockey? What if he got injured and needed a good education? Only conceeded when his son was a multi-millionaire

Only time he has ever gone to HR was when someone stole the baby Shane picture off his desk after he got famous. That's his baby!!! Give it back!!! There were so many memos and all staff emails that it did get returned one night, but a picture of it circulated online so now David only has PR photos at work

His lawyer is an old college friend who he catches up with at least once a year and who reviews the Hollander's will and life insurance policy each year with specific instructions to look after Shane. This annual tradition continues to this day. The lawyer buddy is going to be there for that grown celebrity professional sportsman no matter what

Was so excited when Shane started The Cottage project, and helped him with everything, including liaising with the builders etc. Was delighted to have the first a joint project with his son since school (he helped with art/science/show and tell)

Is really bad with technology but the nice young people at the office help (is not fully cognizant of the fact half the office is in love with him but does correctly suspect the other half want to marry his son)

Always knew he wanted to be a dad, and was devastated when it seemed like that wasn't going to happen, but didn't want to put that on Yuna who was already struggling with it

Sent congratulation cards and presents to all his buddies when they had kids anf was genuinely happy for then but it also killed him a bit. Unfortunately the conversation around men struggling because they wanted kids was not happening in the 80s/early 90s so he kept quiet (and passed that trait on to Shane)

Thought Shane was perfect from the moment he was born, and still thinks that. Can't concieve of why Shane thought he could let them down, he's literally always been Yuna and David's perfect baby

Gets out the good vodka again when he tells Ilya this one day and Ilya starts crying

Goodbye Samira Mohan

[v1enna-wr1tes]

bring her back we all chant in unison

[milanesa42]

“The employees need a larger salary” “hmmmm large celery”

[trashcanniballecter]

Ilya: Troy is my Work Husband

Shane: I'm your Actual Husband and we work together, shouldn't I be your Work Husband?

Ilya: Actual Husband can't be Work Husband. Is against the rules

Shane: fine. Who should be my Work Husband then?

Ilya: I hear Harris is Work Single

perlah and duke’s conversation reminds me how perlah is underrated as fuck, what a woman, what a NURSE

This also works as a review of the emergency department of PTMC on July 4, 2026.

[v1enna-wr1tes]

rocket raccoon means so much to me you guys don’t even understand

[samirasystole]

al hashimi, coming in wanting to improve the department. al hashimi wanting to get to know the students the second she comes in. al hashimi wanting to learn from robby so she can do his department justice. al hashimi who worked through warzones and feels more than confident to be able to handle this department, but doesn’t get the vote of confidence. al hashimi who knows what it’s like to not have medical advancements in afghanistan and wants to give the AI app a chance. al hashimi who is kept in the dark about major conflicts between residents, and even a crime. al hashimi who has had a seizure disorder for most of her life and was able to become a doctor despite it all. al hashimi noticing a symptom and immediately asking for help. al hashimi who is honest with robby about what’s going on to make him respect her. al hashimi presenting her own case as a last resort. al hashimi who wants him to understand her and to feel confident in her leadership. al hashimi who’s plan backfires and gets told she’s incapable of leading the department. al hashimi who is handed a department that’s in shambles and is now responsible for fixing it. al hashimi who works twice as hard and gets nothing in return

[v1enna-wr1tes]

UGHHHHH guys please keep telling robby he is actually loved and needed but also tell him he needs to fucking check himself!!!!! like duke is doing the right thing by telling him he’s needed, and dana and abbot are doing the right thing by telling him to rest and to pull his head out of his ass. NOW CAN WE COMBINE THEM AND GET THIS GUY A GOOD THERAPIST?!

[zipadeea]

it kills me how fucking gentle ilya is with his father when he can't remember things. like, that man treated ilya like dogshit, he was cruel and abusive and made ilya and his mother miserable for years. Yet when his father is sick, ilya is kind. he is gentle to the man who never was with him.

[v1enna-wr1tes]

ugh i wanna do a niche reference on my grad cap but idk what. like i wanna reference something so specific from adventure time lore or something that even if no one gets it i’m still so happy

[v1enna-wr1tes]

the writing that will eventually come from this unrelenting agony will be fire, trust (i’m trying to trust, gang)

[possessable]

it's fine i don't even need to be part of social groups or friend groups anyway (giant hole appears in my chest spontaneously) ? what's that

[paperplateprose]

"eventually it will be perfect" is some zeno's paradox bullshit. sure you're gonna get closer to being perfect every day, but you will never get there. nobody can and nobody has. you're not wasting an idea by making it when you aren't good enough, but you will waste it by putting it away until you're perfect.
