it's not the pollution and plagiarism and feeding private info to government surveillance, although those are all v bad. it's the sense of cheapness and lack of care for accuracy and professionalism. the one person i don't want to cut corners is the doctor! am i crazy for wanting that????

i could be working on my sewing and costuming that i said i'd work on in March, but instead my time is spent apparently napping for 2 hours after work (sleeping). i go to bed 2 hours after i'm supposed to so that's all on me. but i feel like i do better artwork late at night, that's my reasoning

If all the worst people can live without shame for their destruction, then the good people should have no shame for creating.

If I, a pharmacist, call a doctor's office and they use AI to answer the phones, not even a regular voice phone tree system like in the olden days, just straight up AI with its chest out, I hang up immediately and send a fax.

Not even doom scrolling on purpose but things are so bad everywhere it bleeds into everyone's normal posting... Just gonna lie back down for a bit

hey man can you just walk into my suspiciously boss-arena sized room. don't worry about the save point outside that's just to give you a break haha. just walk in. walk into this room right now

Do you celebrate mother's Day or Father's Day with every person who is a parent in your extended family? Or celebrate just your side? Or the ones closest to you? Do you switch which parents you see every year? How many ppl claim their pets as children and say they're too busy now?

training at work today and tomorrow, not a great start to the month. i'm also not feeling great physically (most of that my fault though). taking the devil's nap after work is the only thing that makes me feel better though 😏

I've also been watching Witch Hat Academia (bought the first volume of the manga years ago and never read it lol) anime, and it's so pretty and well done but also I don't really care about children's problems anymore. Give me a protagonist on the wrong side of 40. I want to hear joints creaking

sunday was busy! I had book club for "if cats disappeared from the world" which I really enjoyed and my brother came over to finish my lawn so I gave him the book. we yapped a lot as always, then i went to enjoy the sunshine a bit. in the evening did a watch club i started via discord. social day! 😆

Finished April's wrap up on my ko-fi! I need to remember to post my art there lol, but I don't think anyone actively follows my ko-fi since I don't offer rewards. Anyway here's the link. ko-fi.com/post/April-2...

Jokes on you, I can't remember enough of anything I love to populate a top ten list off the top of my head. The second you ask I will forget I ever even watched a tv show or listened to a song

i like how the millennial “we drank from the hose” is “we made websites” lmfao

A class at my kids’ school put up little statements about the good they want to do in the world and I was over the moon about this one - then I learned they meant to say “teach people in jail” which is also good!

Forgot yesterday was union/strike day bc I was at work for meetings, but I logged off afterwards and did some much needed relaxing and catching up. Then finished it off this morning with my car getting checked out for a recall part. Everyone's good now! Or as much as we can be in this hell world

some outfit designs from last year! (i just feel this year confident enough to post) #AvatarTheLastAirbender #zukka #zuko #sokka #atla

#art I technically finished this on time! My third piece for April, Ramjet trading card from... #transformers figure studio series. I feel bad he looks so ugly whenever I draw him but then I remember he's actually uggo so I feel a little better.

This is coming from a place of warmth and acceptance… -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It’s ‘one fell swoop’ -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’

I've just been too sleepy to wake up before noon these past 2 days off, the rain is just white noise. Doesn't help that my appointment is at 1pm. So obviously nothing gets done lol.

Today I had to take pto for a dentist appt (I'm running low on pto gdit). It was fine but the dentist asked if I ate any food that could have damaged the inside of my mouth and I said, baguette and pizza? So no more baguette or pizza, my favorite foods, until it heals. 🥹

She is very lonely

The tags on this Tumblr post really sum up how I feel as a writer about the current state of fandom, and my increasing lack of motivation to write & share fics

So sick of basic guy x beautiful goth girl even irl.. back in the day a beautiful emo girl wouldnt even look at a guy without spiky hair fringe paired with a mullet.. our species are dying

I have the next 2 days off for medical appointments, though I actually can't do much while preparing for the appointment. But at least I don't have to work! Today was rough as well lol.

As predicted, had a really bad day at work today. Prime chance to work on other bad stuff but I just want to lie down first. 🫠

約1年ぶりにアルカードらくがき。実年齢のわりにスレていないというか、良い意味で青くて善性が見えるところが好きです。あとちょいちょい奇行に走るところ。 Alucard (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night) #fanart

i have something extremely unpleasant to deal with that i said i'd deal with when i'm in a good mood but i haven't been in a good mood in several years...

stop harassing artists who aren't hurting anybody, please use that vitriol for your government members and billionaires like please you would be so good at it

I am queuing up a few blog posts on various topics, but I really need to finish the 3 arts I owe this month (very unlikely goal, it's the 26th already lol) and my fic writing. And the old blog topics I promised 2 months ago. But hey, I accomplished some things.

Back home after a half day at the ren faire, after spending the night at a hotel suite room. It started getting really hot and humid by noon, but I had a good time people watching and shopping. Bought 3 beautiful leather scraps and 2 pieces of gold-tone chainmail jewelry so I'm pleased.

Somebody posted this on a Discord server I frequent. Possibly the most Edwardian feline gentleman I have ever seen. #caturday

had to return the creams and get a refund, so i redid the purchase at the other store, they better not mess up! we don't have much time on this earth to be rebuying stuff that could have been done right the first time!

WELCOME TO TOMODACHI LIFE CUNO

Even though I've been going to bed earlier I am so full of rage at this world that I have to live in I'm still awake at 3am. I cannot sleep because I'm so mad lmao

This is not wrong.

today i ordered some stuff from the pharmacy for my brother, but they gave me someone else's order (2 wrinkle creams) so i hope that other person who got my order was okay with umm... baby tylenol and wart remover.

Happy Earth Day.

I was already physically feeling not great, then I get to be mentally unwell and so work is not going great this week. I can't wait to for this flesh prison to be over with.

Another one of my coworkers has died.

sw - rough Monday as usual because work, but surprisingly i'm not in as much pain as i thought i'd be. maybe the full-body soreness will return tomorrow lol. still taking it easy though, no heavy duty cleaning or exercising, catching up on other easy tasks first.

Now that the Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to refund companies what they paid in tariffs, yet there are still tariffs in place, what's the plan? Consumers continue to fork money over to corporations who will later get another refund?

this looks like a damn zine fair flyer

In the end I couldn't fall asleep for 2 hours lol, body aching and mind racing. Stayed in bed all day and then worked a couple of hours in the yard since it was sunny and dry. Definitely going to feel it tomorrow and the yard doesn't even look that much better. But at least I touched grass I guess

✨generative ai is shit✨ get the sticker here: mcapriglione.art

I've only been awake for 12 hours but I'm exhausted. Not sure what I even did that was so tiring, but at least a lot of minor tidying up tasks were done. Time to turn on the heater in mid-April and cuddle under 2 quilts I guess! 🥲

Hey, this is worth taking like 60 seconds to fill out. Its not a commitment towards anything, its just to help the Free Speech Coalition gauge interest in such a credit union Please share this around! This could end up being huge!

went to 2 of the 3 art markets going today, send off to the anime voice actor one, i'll go back to buy from their store closing sale. the other market was strawberry themed w/ drinks and flowers, very cute, i was like a medici supporting artists i haven't seen before, though many i've seen before

this was a rough week at work and a rough week mentally. looks like a cold front may be coming through after the rain. i dunno how it happened, but i'm feeling burnt out even after an entire week off for staycation. what am i hanging in there for?
