A lot of feelings coming from multiple sources right now.
I'm an afab agender person trying to build a life and career in the world of rock and roll. I also find behavior that's been normalized because of the egregious amount of rockstars behaving those ways pretty disgusting and I will continue to find them disgusting as I always have.
I understand my rise will be long and difficult. I am a passing afab. I am agender/queer. I don't associate with people who cheat, lie, exploit, or otherwise harm anyone because they wanted to/by choice without force. The music industry has been built by people who do precisely those things to gain more money, more following, and more attention. Drama is business. And I don't like it.
I'm not sure what my path is going to look like, holding down my morals and exercising my backbone while sacrificing "opportunities" but I know I will reach the place I want to and be proud of myself for it.
I'm going to be queer and I'm going to grow old. I'm going to be afab and excel in rock. I'm going to be a musician and not accommodate those who hurt people. Those are my promises to me and to everyone I hope to touch with my music.
Hello staff why are you shortening my posts when I have that turned OFF
new my chemical romance single lobotomized me I am no longer mentally ill
hey uh- Im asking for advice for outfit designs with my oc, solar
I'm trying to do full body but I realise that I have no idea for the outfit design- and the color scheme also-
Its my first animatronic of that I liked when I drew them- so thats one thing-
Do you have any ideas?
Oh!! Well, do you have any kind of theme in mind? I know a lot of people are going for clown and jester adjacent designs, but I don't want to assume that's where you wanna go.
But, I like to derive colors from the thing I'm taking the theme from. So, if you've seen my fnaf oc Rummy Jack, they're black, white, and red because those tend to be the default colors for card decks. Might add blue later since I know that's pretty common. But space is nuts! You can kinda go anywhere with it.
Yeah quiet quitting is great and all but have you tried chaotic working?
Like. I remember back in my grocery store cashier days I did so much crazy shit.
When WIC (Women, infants, and children voucher program to help low income mothers/families with children) people were in my line I would pretty much know who they were. Before the cards they had to tell us upfront they were WIC and show us their vouchers for what they were allowed to get (it was awful some times. Like. 2 gallons of milk. $4 worth of vegetables etc etc). They’d always have items hanging back, waiting to see what the total was and if they would have to take it off the belt.
I began to place the fruits/vegetables a certain way on the register scale so that like 1/2lbs of grapes read as like .28lbs or something. Then act shocked when I said that they still had X amount of lbs left. They got all their fruit and vegetables.
I think it started to kinda? Catch on to the women? Because I would have the same moms in my line month after month. And even after they switched to the cards (they worked like food stamp cards?) I’d still do the same thing. They were able to get more produce for whatever shitty max amount Indiana gave them.
Anyways. Be chaotic. It’s more fun that way.
ooooo god what’s that feeling
