The conflict between "this is fanfic I can do what I want" and "if I cannot reasonably reconcile this discrepancy in canon to the satisfaction of the most pedantic fan, I will have to leave the entire fandom in shame"

It's like there is not a SINGLE real thought in their damn head. It's always about money and not about, oh, maybe I should plan for human nature. AKA, I overwork people, they won't come in. 🙄

Nothin else for it

Two panel comic of a person with glasses looking down at an open book. First panel reads: I think I might be bad at this.

In the second panel they are scribbling in the book with a pencil. Text reads: I’m gonna do it anyway

Lol I'm so annoyed with myself, because I was further north yesterday for a work event & could have totally added 15mins to pop past on the way home, but I didn't think about it until I was on the road & there was nowhere to safely pull over 🤦

I mean, getting there is about the same time as it takes me to get home, on public transit (1 to 1.5hrs). The problem is the transit from there to home is another, I think it was just under 1.5hrs, and then accounting for time spent at the shop...
Yeah, there's a reason I haven't gone yet.

(By out of the way, I mean it would add almost 2hrs to my commute by public transit, & maybe 45mins with the car. Poss more, depending what traffic is doing 😅 Why must driving in a major city suck so much?
Also, why can't I have delicious Asian sweet treats shops closer? Boba is out of the way too.)

Should I side-track for taiyaki on my way home today?

Coworker let me know of a taiyaki shop closer to us & I wanna try them, but they're out of the way. But I have the car today & don't need groceries, so this would be the day to do it.
But...I forgot the library book I was supposed to return. 😅🤦

She let him make himself coffee and slide into the booth across from her, before asking, “What are we going to do?”

Ren didn’t bother asking what she meant; there was no way this wasn’t about his and Makoto’s conversation. “I don’t know,” he admitted. “Talk to him. Keep moving forward, no matter what.” He rubbed tiredly at his eyes, then looked across the table, meeting her gaze over the top of her laptop screen. “What other choice do we have?”

She shrugged. “Change our names and escape to another country. How’s your English?”

Ren snorted, amused by the sheer absurdity of either of them jumping ship at this point. For them, Shido had always been personal, and there was no taking Shido down without also gutting the rest of the conspiracy; they had learnt that lesson the hard way.

She ducked her head back down, behind her screen. “Want to do something useful?”

“What did you have in mind?”

“Stealing from the gremlins.”

Ren eyed her for a moment, did her the favour of not asking if that would be safe, or if she thought poking that hornet’s nest was the best use of their time. Instead, he asked, “We’re still using that word for them?”

She shrugged and pointed out, “It’s a little more crowd-friendly.”

That…was not a terrible point. It also had the benefit of obfuscating what sort of target they were discussing. “Fair,” he allowed, and didn’t have to see her smile to know she was pleased that he’d conceded the point. “What are we doing with their money?”

“Uh, hadn’t got that far,” Futaba admitted. “Using it to buy Inari a month’s supply of ramen probably isn’t the best use, huh?”

Ren snorted. “Doesn’t make it any less tempting,” he admitted, and she straightened to flash him a sharp grin over the top of her screen.

If you’re in a creative field and you don’t lift up the work of your peers, you can’t expect people to care about your stuff

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

A big lesson of the civil rights movement was that everyone has their own activism and we support each other. If you're a radical activist, you can draw fire away from peaceful protestors. If you're a pacifist and you see radicals fucking shit up, no you didn't. You didn't see a damn thing.

Jonathan M. Katz @katz.theracket.news · 2d

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.
