  • I work in produce at a grocery store and we often have people ask us to cut roots for one reason or another. My coworkers absolutely hate dealing with customers sometimes and I don’t blame them.

    I had a woman shove a yellow yam on my chest and demanded (I think?) in broken english/creole to cut the bad parts off. I guess my autism/tolerance levels were through the roof because I just went and did it for her for some reason. When I got back to her with the yam, she clicked her tongue at me in disappointment and began ranting about how I cut the soul of the yam too deep. She didn’t even buy the damn thing lmao















  • ahhh fellow artist don’t despair!!!

    I feel the same way all the time when I read/watch things that just obliterate my best work. Sometimes I see something that inspires the shit out of me or it depresses me to all hell that I didn’t think of it first. Sometimes both, sometimes nothing like that. I’ll doubt myself or tell myself I’m not good enough. I promise you, even on Fromsoftware’s teams dedicated to world building (idk how they actually operate just speaking in general terms), there was more than likely a writer who wrote something really neat and interesting one day, then have someone from anywhere just come along and knock things out of the park right in front of them. Or it even just become forgotten :(

    idc if this is a platitude or feels like one. You’re probably a wonderful and brilliant world builder already. You just have to see it. There is no way I could honestly have a good go at writing a TTRPG because my writing style just doesn’t fit and I dislike writing that way. But YOU are here doing just that and I’m not and that’s so awesome.

    Writing whole ass RPGs is not easy and world building in one is just as difficult so don’t put yourself down so much!!
