That I do like about this new layout. Its still rather silly, and they put the adds in the most obnoxious place as if to go 'Hey douchebag, you really want these? BUY US OFF YOUR SCREEN' The submit journal entry is a lot easier though..
So, you know that picture I drew of myself with my pokemon?
I showed it to my mom, cause I was in a good mood. Cause the picture of it made me happy, and having drawn it made me happy.
And upon seeing it she looked it over... and went...
'Now. What could this possibly do for society?'
Normally, I woulda blown something like that off, but only one real thought crossed my mind. 'Wow. What a bitch.'
Everything in the last couple of weeks has been about what I do, and how it will make an impact on others. The art that got me a scholarship at college is now pointless, unless its going to do something for others. With something like this, I personally don't give a shit, but I told her honestly that I drew it to make myself happy. It was for my own good. She gave me an 'oh' as if she sort of understood, but really didn't get it, or the point of it.
She spent her entire day being 'productive' for society.
I spent most of my day doing art.
At the end of the day, I was happy with the items I have done, and she went around complaining about how much she fucking hates her job.
Also, I have no motivation to go job hunting anymore. I've applied to 60+ places within the last 2 months. I've been verbally declined to by 20+. I get nagged 20+ times daily about job hunting, and see 2+ reports every day about how the unemployment rate is still increasing and how college students are fucked.
I wish people believed in the Tao and just took shit easy. I like floating down river calmly without feeling so stressed. I'm sick of people in their motor boats chewing up manatees.
