@PencilearsArt yeah when you work for a paint company the horror of “oh god we fucked up the customer’s massive paint job and it’s an entire project that we have to comp” encourages proactively steering customers away from disaster, and it’s good compatibility with visual art!

@LibrarySmaz exactly, me also
@PencilearsArt tbh you gotta find a workplace like mine that’s “oh thank god, you talked them out of buying $1,000 of product that doesn’t match their needs and prevented a pissed-off customer situation for the customer service bottom by ensuring the customer gets the actual right thing”
western narratives: only the One True Quirk may succeed
eastern narratives: everyone has a quirk! and the goal is to go hard into your own power and be the best you you can be! cultivation will lead to success!!!!
autistic & ADHD ppl: hmm why is anime so relatable
me watching kurapika being like “I studied the chains… listened to them, smelled them, even tasted them, I kept playing with them until I could conjure them” and thinking “ah, stimming with your obsession, standard stepping stone on the anime bildungsroman”
@clifton_r oh god, I am so sorry 😂
western media: autistic special interests are Weird
anime and wuxia: what do you think “I studied the blade” even means. singular-minded special interest obsession until you are the master. that is the basic building block of being an expert
I’m excited for my boyfriend to come over tomorrow and see how much progress I’ve made and how I put together a little basket with a name tag on it for all the stuff he’s left at my place so he has it in one place 🥺
for the past several months it’s been just sort of controlled chaos shuffling things around but I’m starting to finally throw extra things away and find homes for things that need homes 😭
y’all I’m almost done wrangling my room, I just have a few more small junk boxes before there’s some semblance of order again 😭 and I’m only 1.5 hours past my bedtime at 9:30, I thought it was like 11 already
