good morning it is 2 am and i can NOT fall back asleep somehow

good morning & happy 2026 everyone my goals are to do some wanikani daily even if only a little, post a fic+a chapter monthly, and see a lot of birds. aiming for 350 species on my life list (currently at 217) which i dont think will be difficult given the 4 birding trips this year LOL

#umineko hi guys

ラフ〜

good morning all, ik i dont use bluesky that much but i feel like i have nothing to talk about that i dont already say in practically every discord server im in 😭

I love spending time with Scarlet Macaws. They're such entertaining, funny birds. They form very tight pair bonds; you never see a single macaw fly over, you always see two. Before bedtime, they perch next to each other and preen one another. #CostaRica #osapeninsula #birds #macaws

me when i work the holiday and then get flexed the next day i work so i dont even get the overtime pay

Been a bit time poor lately so had to do this in pieces over a few days. I think they’re more of a classic 90s boy band rather than a goth band.

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

“they’ll never know i’m reading gay fics on my phone” jokes on you i can spot a fellow fujoshi with my eyes closed

This might be an unpopular opinion but what this baby seal is doing is very special to me, personally.

ほっぺたモチモチにしすぎたリア一ネもあげるね

i used to live with a lot of guilt but this basically cured me

work asked me if i wanted to come in today but i decided to enjoy life instead and have been cuddling kitties and kissing their tiny foreheads and feeling warm under blankets instead

it baffles me how few people value authenticity nowadays.. wanting nothing but fake as long as it's "good" without it ever occurring to them that there is no love inside and love is what's most important of all

my patients drove me so insane yesterday that i too was about to need a bed so i called off today 🤩

“the fandom is dying” maybe to you 🫵, i’m delusional enough to keep this thing running without any help

"there is always room for you in my armsl"

if you ever feel empty inside consider birding

Massive win and beginning of the end for generative ai

Ranulf for @meltypancake.bsky.social for the FE Artscuffle mini Halloween event!

select pay is insane, wtf kind of work environment are they putting these poor nurses in to be doing $10k sign on bonuses and $51/hour 🤨 the other crown of "what the fuck guys" goes to cleveland clinic's $53 AN HOUR for new grads like ??? WHAT are you putting them through

honestly i think im pretty normal, all things considered

I want genAI to die. I want this AI trend to die. I want features like photo filters to go back to being called what they are and not AI. I want real art to feel valuable and real artists to be valued. I want photography and filmmaking and art and design and I want voice acting and editing. Not bots

it seems that my impulsive ass will never sit still for more than 3 months at a time

twice added another day which means cheaper tickets which means I CAN GO NOW

anyway, moral of the story is i love umineko

i love writing it feels so good just listening to music and humming and typing and Loving. by the way speaking of music, a lot of my songs are very inspired by songs whether being the title (sorry lmao) or the song i had on loop while listening. at this point i could probably make a playlist lol

sometimes my patients will be like "i bet YOU dont have to take these meds!" i love saying "actually i can tell you everything i take if you want?" then we have an open conversation about meds, side effects, efficacy, and personal experiences from then on. i dont think its oversharing personally

Uh-oh... #FireEmblem #ファイアーエムブレム #art

my friend called me a yaoi wizard for making raitii romantic the other day, i cant stop thinking about it

super duper happy rutipad day to those who celebrate #宝石の国

i fully plotted a friends birthday fic and did most of my wanikani yesterday so it's not like i did NOTHING but i definitely took some time to recover from work too lol

i ended up going out for dinner with my mom yesterday instead of working on a lot of stuff in the afternoon lol... well it's okay though

thinking about that post thats like "born too late to explore the world and too early to explore the universe. born just in time to post memes on tumblr dot com." actually it makes me happy because memes on tumblr dot com are very funny

it is truly such a blessed thing that i could live in an age where i have so many things i want to do at once that i dont even know where to start ☺️💕 like i could be dying of the plague in the 1200s but instead i am here joyfully reading and writing on archiveofourown dot org

speaking of things i wanted to do today, i wanted to play a little bit of the new pokemon game too... i made lucile lol

OMG I HAVE READING TO DO TOOOO i have so much to do today it's great

the crazy thing about my works on ao3 is that they are not always indicative of my personal tastes. like what is this. what in the hell is siorai doing up there with raitii and cluke (my #2 and #3 ships of all time). unreal

anyway i have today off! i have a few things i plan on doing this next 5 days. 1. studying kanji (i have 496 wanikani reviews LOL) 2. translating sion note 3. writing a bday fic for a dear friend 4. getting my liz lisa sweater fixed cuz when i got it, it had a HOLE!!! rahhh 5. mailing internationaly

i get so happy when people honestly like my works >u< i do put a lot of effort and love into creating them so it's nice to hear that others can see that and appreciate it

ehehe
