Spinda's posts

@ChiffonOrange: I got called, but I think the situation is as handled as it can be for now. Tomorrow / Monday might be interesting. :P
Ah, if you're in the afternoon you're either a good few hours ahead or behind me lol.

@ChiffonOrange: my day is OK! I'm on-call for work which means I'm sitting in my living room with the window cracked, listening to students party outside and praying I don't get called for emergency response lmao. How was your day?


@Whimsy: What groups / soloists do you like? My ult group is BTS but I listen to a little bit of most of the bigger groups, both guys and girls, and I love a lot of soloists, especially ones on the K-RNB / K-HipHop side of things!! And I've just began buying pieces. My first one just came in the other day as a second-hand piece from an indie brand, and I have one in the mail right now that's a TaoBao brand collabing with US sellers to offer some western plus sizes!

@GoblinsAndTea: hello hello!!


@ChiffonOrange: I recognize your username-- hello! <3

i do!

i joke that i have three and a half.

in order:
"gentle" in script on my left inner elbow. this is my "half"-- i'm supposed to have "stay" on the right ("stay gentle") but just...... never remembered to make a second appointment! i got it in dec 2015 and still keep meaning to make a second appointment.

a dog in a party hat with a balloon tied to his tail! from a poem about good things in life and why they're reasons to stick around. may 2016 i think?

the ASL sign for i love you (like ImI/) in my friend's handwriting. he signs letters / notes in books with it and it reminds me that i am loved and to love others. dec 2018 i think?

a heart-shaped love potion that says "bottled up" -- a valentines flash. definitely not my favorite / I do not support the artist anymore-- have lightly been thinking of getting it covered, but the tattoo is covered 90% of the time so i don't think about it much / am not that concerned about it. it was a cool idea at the time but wasn't really what i wanted and was pretty impulsive. feb 2019.


I have a ton of others I'd like to get, including floral half-sleeves!

hello voltra!!!

i took a kind of weird / unintended extended hiatus at the end of 2020 ^^;; I'm not sure how active I'll end up being but I wanted to reintroduce myself!

my name is kody but spinda is a-ok too! i'm 23 and from the US midwest/great lakes. i work in higher education and am... perpetually exhausted lmao.

i really love kpop, alt fashion (esp. egl/lolita and mori), playing switch games, cooking, and playing ukulele very badly lol.

anyways, hello!

oh im gonna have to try

i know it's not like, a good quality, but i love starbucks matcha lattes and the instant mix i have right now from kroger is ok, but doesn't mix very well

No. I was gonna check out some digital sales and see if I could find some good deals for my parents' Christmas presents, but I finally got bullied into getting my Macbook battery serviced / repaired and that's eating a pretty penny out of my pocket, so I'm on team can't-spend-anything until I get paid Friday.

hi, please ignore/lock if this is a repeat, or doesn't belong here, but i couldn't find a thread similar to this??

in this thread, either equipped or as a screengrab, show me your favorite voltra avatars you've made.


this one isn't the most color coherent but i like trying to make all the event items fit together!! there's definitely a few i had to exclude, but i'm pretty proud of the work i did especially being a newer player?

It's throwing a 404 error when I try to start today's chapter : anyone else experiencing this?

EDIT: from the landing page clicking on the image-- the link in this thread works!

@Totalanimefan: i'm an hourly 35-40!
about two or three times a semester i'm on call, which goes from like 5pm to 8am-ish, and is just me carrying around a phone that our campus safety dispatch can call me on to ask me to take care of different things -- so like, (in a normal year) they call and tell me a student has gone to the hospital, i go to the hospital to check in, make sure they're ok, and help get in touch with parents (due to COVID i just get in touch with the students unless something is super wrong); called to respond to & coordinate responses to things like carbon monoxide alarms and authorizing use of emergency rooms if students are displaced due to building issues, etc. -- there's some potential for overtime there, but they're pretty good about letting me flex my time in case something wild happens

@Totalanimefan: pretty busy lol. i came into this role at the tail end of july! i trained for about two weeks and then we brought the student staff in to train for a few days (heavily shortened because of COVID) and move students in.
we move the majority of them back out next weekend, with about 80 (out of 1800) staying until early december to complete finals while on campus, mostly because either they're international students and due to COVID or other restrictions can't go home, or can go they can go home, but not until after online finals are over because of technology access.
i enjoy working with college students a lot, though i'm looking forward to when i can stop being part of an on call rotation lol.

@Totalanimefan: No, haha. I'm a live-on professional staff member for the university. I live in an apartment built into a hall so that I can be part of the 24/7 on-call response & do support programming for the students, and my 9-5 part of the job includes doing roommate mediation, supporting students when we get reports of mental health, family, personal, etc. concerns, and doing some campus community work with the Counseling Center, as well as other day-to-day tasks.

Basically, I'm like a house mom, or like an RA but already graduated.

@MoodyB: it works, it's really pretty and looks nice!
i never know what to do in my signature lol

@Totalanimefan: ehh, sort of? there's not a ton of local delivery, but instacart and doordash do things from the two larger cities near us, with a few local places peppered in.


@Amber Lynne: it's really fun! i appreciate that you can go back and do previous days, as that's always been a sore spot on other sites.


@MoodyB: thank you! i haven't seen it in a long time, but knew i had seen it -somewhere-
