Rereading Soul Eater cause it's been a decade. I completely forgot Maka had a mom. And that she apparently has gone completely unnamed for two fuckin decades???? Despite doing pretty big things???? Get that bum Spirit outta here

I love getting unaccompanied minors (kids flying alone) who so clearly just. Don't want to be here lol. Sometimes I get to know a little of their story, like their parents are divorced, or a family member died and they're heading to the funeral, but usually they just don't want to talk about it and that's fine. But I always treat the flight like it's a challenge to make them smile. I offer them snacks and soda but that's never enough, that's whatever, they could get those from an airport vending machine. Chump change. So then I tell the worst jokes. Just the most embarrassing, kindergarten teacher, annoying dad jokes you can think of. And those always get a groan, or a "Seriously??" And that's my in! Now I can say "Why, what's your idea of a good joke? No, come on hotshot, make your best joke, let's see it." And they hem and they haw but of course they eventually tell me their very best joke because kids are little competitive comedy goldmines. And it's always super funny, so I laugh, and that's where they slip up. Because you know what you almost always do when your joke successfully makes someone laugh? You smile. And I'm like. Gotcha. Rookie move. Now you're going to end up having a good time in spite of yourself. I win.

Did this with an 11yo u.m. today and he said "What did the ghost say to the other ghost?" And I said "What?" "Nothing. Ghosts aren't real."

Reading Rice Shoulder. I appreciate that the artist can draw women with androgynous and even masculine faces. And any "hrm"-isms I have about the treatment of some of the characters I will chalk up to it being written in 2007 and the general dehumanization of competitive sports. It's kind of progressive for that era even

Had an epiphany. This is a manga about someone with the backstory of a main character but the stats of an obstacle. The one that would typically teach a weaker protag "strength isn't everything"

The mild colorism is unnecessary but I guess the crowd has never been the most respectful audience

LESBIANS???

Can't believe I caught up already. This is a real hidden gem

this is going to sound like such a little sibling ass take but i genuinely believe that being a little bit annoying is actually a greater sign of maturity and self awareness than being universally likeable and on good terms with everyone

if some people find me annoying and can't stand me because of how i think and act then that means i'm a fully realized human being with my own personality and opinions and free will and not just a reflective surface for other people's desires, which is in fact a good thing despite what people who want you to just be a reflection of their own opinions and desires will tell you, and why being considered "cringe" or whatever doesn't bother me at all

also it's really funny when you're confident enough in yourself to know that people not liking you isn't always a sign that you're the problem. like there's something undeniably hilarious about being aware your mere existence has the power to piss someone off and ruin their day and i recommend embracing it.

Oh fucking thissss

I want to say Oblivion Battery is presenting itself as fujobait but idk how it would have reached nearly 200 chapters if that were all it was. Guess I'll keep reading

Yeah alright it's pretty good. Also the main battery should divorce and then reunite

I love my job, but reblogging employment jelly for someone else I love.
