very specific :tm: rp moment where: "oh hey, i find it really easy to write drayton (pokemon)" only to realise he exhibits an extremely key part of my life when all of his songs on the playlist i made for him are made up of 2010s "school/life pessimism vocaloid songs" + more recent syudou and well.

it's probably just them being polite but a student teacher telling me "i'm excited to teach english with you again" after a year and a half since i last taught w them during their placement is so warming

we actually just had to do this on ours because I was getting super overwhelmed with everything and wasn't quite happy in my admin space. There are other projects that I want to work on and write in more than the major one we're doing, and it took a lot out of me to do as much as I have been, on top of all of the irl stresses. Moving forward though, the rest of the staff team has picked back up on the slack a little and I'm getting back into writing rather than planning which is nice.
Normalize staff taking breaks!

Normalize staff vacations! I know when I'd used to admin, I'd felt a little guilty when there were things to process piling up and questions that needed to be answered and I would just not publicly tag my thread partners because I didn't want to look like I was slacking on my job. But really, the people that should be writing the most are staff, who did the work because they wanted to RP!

Normalize not being scared to approach staff to plot! Yes there's something a little bit intimidating about messaging a staff member, but they're RPers too, looking to RP. No one staffs because they just want to staff, they do it because they want to help make the site run smoothly.

as a certified staffer who also writes too much but also a member who can and WILL be in staff dms to be a nuisance about plotting - agreed on every single moment!!

i am a fool who often doesn't take breaks despite burnout when it came to staffing and that nearly fucked me over so bad back in november. the break was needed. felt bad because i'm the most active bc of how much time work gives me but i also just want to plot too! it's ok to take breaks!
