Solace


My name is Lynzie and I am fucking fabulous. Yes, this blog is named after Schala from Chrono Trigger, thx.

27; Bakersfield, CA, USA; cisfemale; white; asexual and panromantic; extremely liberal; feminist.

This blog is full of nerdiness and social justice and food and cats. Mostly I reblog stuff, but sometimes I post pictures of my cats, sometimes I post what I made for dinner because I fucking love food, and every once in a while I rant about something or other.

People often ask me what my fandoms are; I don't really get into fandoms, but I'm a big fan of The Legend of Zelda series, RENT, El Hazard, most of Squaresoft's games from its Super Nintendo era, and I have a love-hate relationship with Glee and Ragnarok Online.

Not Homophobic, But...

lol it’s so obvious when people haven’t worked in any retail or restaurant jobs. like the assholeishness that people subject retail and restaurant workers to BLOWS MY MIND. i have to lecture my parents to not be assholes every time i go eat w/them.

tbh I’m still not convinced he wasn’t faking it.  He was just so over the top.  I’ve worked…  a lot of retail/restaurant jobs, and no one has ever come close to this dude, lmao.  I just can’t.

But yes, it is absolutely true that you can totally tell, and it’s not even just with those jobs.  It’s basically with everything.  I used to be a bagger at a grocery store, and part of my job was to collect the shopping carts from the parking lot…  and now I always make a point of grabbing carts from the parking lot - especially ones that are blocking parking spaces - to bring into the store rather than taking one from the “normal” place.  I always tip generously, I’m always polite, I’m always understanding even when things get royally fucked up, etc etc…  and there is nothing more embarrassing than going somewhere with someone who doesn’t follow the same rules.

I went to the Salvation Army with a friend a few months ago and she was picking up clothes, holding them up to her body, and then just tossing them back over the racks as though it was no biggie, and when I went to pick them up and hang them back up she was like, “Why are you doing that?  It’s their job to clean up after us.” and I just about lost it on her.  :(

SO UH
POINT IS
BE NICE TO PEOPLE GUYS
THEY ARE JUST DOING THEIR JOBS TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITIES
DON’T MAKE IT HARDER ON THEM THX
