Really fucked up that you can just inherit complexes from your mother and be fully aware that they're complexes from your mother but still do all that shit

Love this village that Tumblr truly is because it's just us sticking our heads out the window and yelling across the street, "hey, is AO3 down!?"

friend across the street yelled back, "No, it's fine!"

Someone else yells, "Maybe it's your 400+ open tabs!"

Sebastian Stan attending the “Thunderbolts*” premiere in Los Angeles | April 18, 2025

Two days of finals left to go.

Honestly, I'm going to go scream off a cliff as soon as this is over.

What part of "this is the hard deadline" repeated for three weeks, written on the board, posted online, in the Goddamn syllabus, do people not understand?

I can't be any clearer. Yes, I take late work up to this specific date.

No, I don't take any afterwards because the SEMESTER IS OVER.

"I didn't know." (did you not read the board, listen to the announcements, read the syllabus, look online????)

"Can't I have an extension?" (It's already six weeks late)

"But I meant to get it done" (But you didn't)

"Can't you give me some points for this thing that's 8 weeks late?" (No)

"Okay, then some extra credit?" (WTF? Classes are over!)

Literally, the final is in and graded and that's when they respond.

It winds me up something awful, sends me into a panic attack because I am now the bad guy who failed them since I have to say no.

Okay, how petty can I be?

Need Advice here.

So I get an email that there's going to be a little get together for one of my colleague's who's retiring. It's on study day when I usually don't go into the office; it's my grading day. Now, normally I'd make the effort to drive in, but I'm not feeling it. This colleague didn't come to the farewell party last year for my work BFF who was fired, and there's a long history of him not coming to anything I have organized, even the ones for the students. It's been so very noticeable over the years; I've asked to make sure he got the invitation, circled around to remind him the students where hoping he'd be there, but most of the time (say 90%) he never shows. (he says he forgets or "was that today?" or "Did you tell me about it?" or "Oh I was home and it was too late to drive back"). And blanking out on my work BFF's was the worst of the worst because it was supposed to be a show of support for her and a finger to the administration's stupidity.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'm not going to go to this thing, but I'm feeling a bit like an asshole because other people will be there and probably notice I'm not. Yeah, I'm not really worried about what he'll think. Is it too petty to blow it off?

So I didn't go. Didn't say anything to anyone, just did what I had planned to do, stay home and graded like a maniac. I have no regrets

my dream as a fanfic writer is for one day, one of my fics to be someones comfort fic. like the fic that they reread when they don't feel good and want to be happy. i want my words to comfort someone one day
