𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐄 @duelcafe - Tumblr Blog

Hello, welcome to duelcafé — a trading card game & hobby centric role-play hub!

I am your hostess, Fusiera! Firstly, I wanted to mention that as a hub — a primary blog that has role-playing accounts connected to it as secondaries — you need to follow the sideblogs of the muses you want to interact with, not just duelcafe alone. Exclusively following the hub does not grant mutuality to any of my characters; if you want engagement from a specific muse of mine, you must follow their respective sideblog. You can of course find all my characters and their accounts in the muselist, read what a hub all entails more in-depth in my overview, and even learn about me personally in this profile! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel more than welcome to reach out to me. ♥

As you all may have seen, my mother passed away on September 3rd in a very sudden way. We held a funeral service for her on the 10th and laid her remains to rest on the 11th. Needless to say, I am still grieving, and a lot of changes are happening in my life currently on top of that. For one, I lived with my mother as her caretaker, and am now moving in with my grandparents for the time being. Admittedly, I may find myself leaning on my role-play blogs to get through this difficult period in my life if and when I can find the time for myself, but at the same time, there are still various things me and my family still need to take care of and that takes priority naturally. I'm sorry to have to say again that I will not be around or even in messages much, at least in the beginning, but I hope you guys can understand. Thank you.

CONTENT WARNING: death, irl death.

My mother passed away yesterday. I know I haven't been the most active as of late, and I can firmly say I won't be online for the next while, either. This has been incredibly hard to get through, so thank you all for understanding.

CONTENT WARNING: fire, house fire, pyrophobia ( actual images show under the read more, so don't view them if you feel the pictures would be triggering for you. )

Let me start this off by saying this first: I am fine, and so is my mother. The fire did not start in the place we're renting, but instead my grandma's house where I previously lived and have most of my stuff still. My dad was the only one home when the house caught fire late last night due to a lightning strike as my grandmother is visiting some of her friends in Tennessee, but he is okay and alive. The fire was mostly contained in the kitchen, and apart from it being unsalvageable, most of the other rooms are okay. There's still a ton of smoke and water damage, but this fire could've been a lot worse, especially considering that the house uses gas. I'm still reeling from it, along with waiting on the insurance company for news on what to do ( I don't think we can go through things and move what we want to save out of the house until they've come down and assess the damage ), but the most important thing was that not one was severely hurt. And while I know I'm not the most active person here, I was actually getting stuff done in the background, but I wouldn't expect too much from me at this time. Thank you guys for being as patient and as understanding as you have been with me.

UPDATE BELOW: same warnings apply.

The insurance company won't be able to assess the house for a couple of days. However, the fire department has deemed the house unlivable and because of that no one can stay in the house. I moved what valuable stuff I could out ( my dad was super stressed about our stuff getting stolen overnight ) and took pictures of what I couldn't. The good news is that my dad was able to get some aid from the Red Cross. My old boss at a hotel I used to work at also gave my dad the friends and family discount, so we got him a room for cheap for a couple of nights. From how I understand it, the insurance company should pick things up from there once the place is assessed, but definitely isn't going to be a quick fix — it's going to take months to rebuild the house. Given how it was explained to me by my dad ( by what he was told by the fire department ), it has to be gutted. All things considered, and I've been saying this all day, this fire could have been much worse. There's a ton to do and the smoke and water damage are still pretty bad, but I consider it fairly lucky that the fire was as well contained as it was.

EDITED — Got to talk with an assessor today. He'll be coming down Monday, because apparently the one that covers our area is on vacation for a couple of weeks, so he's more far out. And unfortunately, because my dad isn't listed specifically on the insurance policy, any assisted living coverage has to be done through my grandma's name. I'm not sure what this exactly means for him, but we're gonna figure it out. ( Another edit, it all worked out in the end! )

MORE UPDATES: same warnings apply.

Things seem to finally be falling into place. The fire investigator came last week, along with the insurance adjuster, and they've assessed the house and begun their reports ( the investigation period is still in process though I guess bleh. ) It was ultimately determined to be because of a lightning strike, and one of the arc points behind the stove being what actually caught fire as a result. This Sunday though, they'll be packing up things in the house to clean / store. The estimated time they gave for the house to be rebuilt ( according to the adjuster and how "motivated" the contractor my grandma picks to work with is or isn't ) 6-9 months. Because of how long it will take, they'll actually be putting my grandma and dad into a temporary house. As I've said before, it's going to be a long process, and admittedly I'm still anxious and a little restless about the whole situation, but hopefully now that things are finally moving forward, everything will fall into place like they seem to have had so far.

So I have some good news regarding my mother — she should finally be able to come home soon! Naturally, this means I will be moving in with her soon as that's always been the plan, and I've been preparing for that and making sure we have everything we'll need for our place. I'll be a bit scarce and slow to get to things, but it's all falling into place at last! I'll still be working in the background when I can both here and on my other hub, but don't expect too much at this time haha.

EDIT: The official day is Tuesday the 27th!

Still settling in, but things have been going well for the most part! I haven't had much free time unfortunately, but I'm hoping to get a rhythm and pace going so I can be fully active on both my hubs. Regardless, I hope everyone is doing well!

Hello everyone! I am once again here to say that I am still around despite being quiet due to the... matters affecting me in real life. On a lighter note, I’ve also been quiet because I’ve been working on a super secret project and I wanted to finally unveil it all to you this Christmas as a sort of gift! So say hello to my newest hub, @ovenmade! A place for Cookie Run muses! While I never expected to pick up any characters from this franchise ( or against my better judgement pick up more muses in general whoops ), I’ve fallen in love with Kingdom especially and found myself working on some muses before I even knew it. For the moment though, I won’t be advertising my CRKO hub anymore than just here to my mutuals. I want to take it slow and just vibe there for the time being while I get affairs here on duelcafe in order — the holidays are still busy for me, after all, and there are still a few things I need to get down there before I fully open the doors there.

I also want to say that this doesn’t mean that my TCG hub will be abandoned. I obviously have big plans for @duelcafe as implied, and some of you might’ve noticed some changes already! In short, I will be working on various things across my blogs here, but the major items on my list to complete are updating my themes to work with the new text editor ( this is the most important one ), revamping certain pages of mine ( both information and coding-wise – progress has been made here ), and just general overall organization. Like I said earlier though, the holiday season is busy for me, and I have family down visiting us. When I do have the time, know that I am focusing on getting these things done and crossed off my to-do list. I also have decided against setting up my queue here until I am more active again, so while my blogs here look inactive, please don’t worry — I’m still here in the background when I can be! And like I said, I’ll be musing on @ovenmade from time to time!

Anyways, I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season! Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it! I’ll probably see you all here sometime in 2024. ♥

READMORE TRIGGER WARNINGS: hospitals, medical, mother mention, terminal illness.

My mother, along with everything else she had fighting against her, was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. So if the osteomyelitis doesn't kill her first, this absolutely will. Every time I've tried to get an answer from the nursing staff about what stage of heart failure she is in ( she had heart surgery in April, I don't see how they could've missed it at that time, so maybe it isn't that far along — I don't know how it works ), they know fuck all about it and kept telling me the doctor will get in contact with me. I've been hearing that for days, and now that my mom is back in the skilled nursing facility ( her vitals were stable, there was nothing more they could do for her supposedly, and all her antibiotics can be given to her there ), I doubt I will get a call. This was also a different medical staff that we were dealing with ( she transferred hospitals ), so it wasn't her usual team, and they honestly were awful. I'm hoping I can get some answers from the social worker. I just want to know how much time we have together and to get her out of there and back home so she doesn't end up dying there...

Admittedly, my depression is killing me on top of all this, it's been horrible lately along with my chest pain, and even now I've been trying to cut out my emotions in this post and just state the facts, but things have been really hard. This has been one of the worst years of my life for me and my family and I'm just tired and beaten down. Usually, in the past, I would have run into the arms of rp to help me cope, but I've just been so frustrated with my writing that it's hard actually to write anything — it's like I have no confidence left. And worst of all, I know I can't continue like this. I have to do something for myself. When my mother was on life support back in April, her surgeon told us one of the most important things we needed to do was take care of ourselves, now more than ever. If this year has taught me anything, it's how true that is, and I've been failing at it. I'm going to try to pull myself up by my bootstraps, reach out to people, take care of my own heart, slowly get back to writing again, etc. It's going to be hard, things aren't exactly going to be easier from here on out, but I'm going to make an effort to do so. Sorry again guys, and thank you for sticking with me this far with all of this happening.

READMORE TRIGGER WARNINGS: hospitals, hospice, infections, terminal illness, medical, mother mention.

Hey guys... I, uh, got some bombshell news regarding my mother today. Recently, she had to go back to the hospital due to chest pain and some concerning vitals. As far as we knew at the time, she only had a RSV infection, and was still on track for hopefully being able to come home soon. Today, they told us that she has osteomyelitis — an infection of the bone, and that she will need to be on antibiotics for a minimum of six weeks in order to treat it. Both the infectious disease doctor and heart doctor saw her and agreed that she could NOT be put through anymore surgeries, they fear it would just make it worse that this point, so if these antibiotics don't end up working, hospice is her only option. I don't know what's going to happen, my feelings are everywhere and I haven't exactly been feeling too great myself either lately, so I'm sorry again I'm not around and not exactly being talkative, but... thank you all for continuing to understand. I can say I have a lot of confidence in the doctors that have been helping my mom, and hopefully I'll have good news to tell you all soon.

your replies will not be perfect, and that's okay. you don't need to use ten thousand words from the thesaurus. you don't have to be shakespeare. you don't have to put pressure on yourself to put out a perfect, novella-length reply every time you sit down at your computer. this is a hobby you do for fun, not a classroom where your words are being graded at every turn - be gentle with yourself. you are doing your best. applaud yourself for your own passion and creativity. applaud yourself for trying. applaud yourself for every one liner you do, every small paragraph. applaud yourself on the days you only get one thing done - you wrote something beautiful. you did something fun. really try to love this hobby again. no one cares about word count. no one cares about the thesaurus. people follow your blog because they want to write with you. don't forget that.

lack of interaction ≠ lack of interest. sometimes, life gets in the way, or my muse doesn't cooperate with me the way i want, or i'm simply too anxious to take the first step. but just because we currently don't have any interactions going, doesn't mean that i'm not interested in writing with you and your muse(s). maybe the perfect opportunity hasn't presented itself yet, or i couldn't think of a good enough plot but that never ever has anything to do with you. after all, we're mutuals for a reason and that's usually because i enjoy seeing you on my dash and would love to write with you ― whenever that may happen.

psa - - if you rp a character that - was only in one episode or a movie little known - is hated - a female muse - no one knows bc the fandom is small or nonexistent - an oc continue !!!! writing !!! your !! character !! there is a reason you love them like you do and if you feel like no one wants to write with you or other wise i can assure you !! that people love your writing and that they enjoy seeing you on your dash and that they love screaming about plots and branching out your character !!

Dashboard Unfucker v3.3.0!

As I first discovered today from the massive surge of people reblogging my previous update posts, the shitty new layout is now universal despite widespread protest, since us existing users are now apparently backseat to a Tumblr's hypothetical endless stream of high-revenue new users who are allergic to using social media sites that don't look like every other site. Well, thankfully at least for the time being, reverting the update via userscript is still as easy as ever!

Version 3.3.0 even fixes the new server-side bug where avatars next to posts disappear, because apparently I spend more time reviewing my commits than a multimillion dollar social media platform.

Installation Guide:

A userscript extension is required to run the script. Currently, the only tested extensions are Tampermonkey and Violentmonkey, but you might have still have luck with a different extension if you already use it.

Once you have the userscript extension installed, simply click this link to open the install page. This also works for updating, but make sure the version listed near the top is up to date, since it only fetches the script from GitHub every so often.

And of course, it's all open-source! Contributions, bug reports, and general insights are all appreciated.

do what makes you happy, not what you think would make others happy. want to make a new blog even though you haven't been active on your current one(s)? do it. want to reply to one thread immediately ― even though others have been sitting in your drafts way longer ― because it's the only one you currently have muse for? do it. want to reblog another meme despite your inbox being full of unanswered ones already? do it. want to take some time off to focus on other stuff? do it. no one but you can tell you what to do; if it's something you want, just go for it. this is your blog and your decision on how you want to handle things. because at the end of the day, it matters only that you're happy with it, not what others may think about it.
