But did they really brake the wheel?
If you are like me and always need to be working on something to keep your anxiety under control, during this quarentine why not helping scientists by looking at pictures of some neat penguins? or even galaxies? There’s this site call Zooniverse, where you can help on scientific projects by analyzing pictures and data! Right now my favorite project has returned, called Penguin Watch (where yeah, you get to watch penguins, it’s amazing)
you basically have to analyse photos looking for penguins, their chicks, eggs or even predators and human interaction But there are lots of interesting projects you can help in areas such as biology, physics, history or even art:
Oh and the best part, some institutions even accept it as volunteering/service hour requirements for graduation and scholarships!! It’s helping me a lot during this time, so I thought it was worth sharing

-Samuel “Lowkey Gay For Wordsworth” Coleridge
Ardeth Bay is the only man I will ever love and frankly I'm alright with that
I wasn’t asked to a single dance in high school and didn’t have a serious romantic relationship until I was 22. And like, yeah that shit hurt when I was younger. I had a lot of fears that I was unlovable and that I didn’t deserve to be happy. And every time I would try to talk to anyone about it, the conversation became, “you’ll find someone”, when it should have been, “you don’t need a relationship or a date, you’re lovable & complete & beautiful on your own”.
So yeah, please normalize young people not dating, and please stop shaming them for it. There’s more to life than romance, despite what the media wants us to think.
Some people : DA2 sucks because it wasn't as dark as DAO.
Me : *was traumatized by the death of my sister/brother in the beginning of DA2. And put on PLS by the psycho blood mage trying to fuck a zombie made with severals dead ladies, including my mom*
Blake: The old guy on the first floor who covers all his windows with newspaper and paints all his terra cotta pots bright red. He’s never spoken to me or anyone else, to my knowledge, but he’s been there longer than anyone. On a different level entirely.
Wordsworth: The next door neighbor with the most beautiful patio in the complex. He’s got all kinds of beautiful plants that are healthy, no matter how much everyone else’s are dying. Very chill, but don’t cross him. Has been here forever and has been known to get salty with the management when a repair takes too long.
Coleridge: That one guy a couple years back who we all thought had died because his mail was piling up outside his door, but as it turned out, he was really just asleep for two whole days (?????) and felt really bad for making everyone worry. Wherever he is, I hope he’s alive.
Byron: That young professional guy who broadly hinted that he had had sex on top of one of the washing machines in the laundry area, but wouldn’t say which one. (He may or may not have been messing with me.) Never seemed to work, but dressed really well and took Ubers everywhere. Actually pretty funny, but I wouldn’t want to go on a trip with him or anything. Sat on the balcony smoking a hookah.
Shelley: The friendly, yet constantly disheveled upstairs neighbor who worked for a local nonprofit and was always playing records at weird hours of the night. Walked very loudly and sang in the shower. Every night at approximately eight o’clock he’d laugh a singular laugh at something (”HA!”) and then he’d go to bed. He was pretty cool, just odd. Down for Nazi-punching.
Keats: That male nurse on the far side of the complex who snuck in a cat a couple years ago and probably has like a squillion of them now. Has one plant that is struggling for survival, but he’s doing his best with it. Always seems nice, but is low key intimidating. Has names for all the raccoons who forage in the dumpsters, and can be seen checking out the furniture that people discard.
Okay, so do vampires drink from arteries or veins or both? Asking for a friend.
Seems to me the problem with Uk’otoa is that he isn’t a great hirer. Like we’ve seen/know of 4 warlocks so far (including Vandren) out of whom 50% didn’t plan on releasing him at all and 75% are dead
Hi anon,
You are very right. Here are a number of issues with Uk’otoa’s business practices:
1. Offered the job to various drowning randoms on the spot without an interview.
2. Sets very unclear expectations (provoke? consume? how does one achieve those metrics in a meaningful way?)
3. Highly passive-aggressive - cutting off all access to benefits when employees don’t achieve quarterly goals? You didn’t even try a Performance Improvement Plan? OK snea snake.
4. Didn’t address the lingering resentment after a fling between coworkers went sour. Technically that resentment lasted only a few hours after which one of them was murdered by a pirate king, but a good manager would have intervened early on.
5. When an employee quits with minimal notice consider it a time for reflection. It’s an opportunity to understand why - it might just be them, but you might have made an environment where they don’t feel safe giving the typical notice for your industry.
6. Once an employee has left you should move on and not send a team of sea spawn and deep scions onto their ship in the dead of night to cut a fucking hole in their chest.
A lil bit of this, a lil bit of that. Brought to you by a queer, drama/Kpop obsessed, dnd loving, health sci uni student who should really be trying to study 😅
