I should have bought more storage before the AI boom. I thought 8 TB of storage was enough but somehow it wasn’t (due to the inherent nature of creative file sizes) and now one SSD costs ten million dollars

Kakashi’s life is so funny actually cuz all he wants to do is read his little books but then he’s subjected to innumerable horrors. And then if you ask about his students it’s like “yes my students became a candidate for hokage, a doctor with PhD, and an internationally wanted terrorist”

Le sigh I got undiagnosed by a male doctor at one point bc I’m not overweight and now no one believes that I have it 🙃 I hate doctors tho so I guess I’ll just run some tests on my own and follow up if I can’t fix it myself

010

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

I think they’ve done A1C and I’ve done the fasting blood sugar test a couple times? But yeah they probably aren’t running the right tests bc they usually aren’t lol 😭 Like they’ve never done the one where you drink the juice (which I feel would probably be more useful?)

Makes sense, I guess I’ll start keeping a journal or something… Ik that due to being Asian + having mild PCOS/PMOS I’m genetically prone to insulin resistance, idk if that factors into this at all

I love conducting medical experiments on myself. First I self Dx my severe TMJ (correctly after 10,000 doctors call me crazy) then I self Dx my iron deficiency (correctly after 10,000 doctors call me crazy) and now I have to test my blood sugar like I’m Victor Frankenstein what is my life even

I guess I maybe get a little jittery? (As if I had too much coffee). But I don’t get proper shakes or shivering

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

Yessss I’ve noticed that eating more protein helps a lot! Interesting, so I’m not totally crazy 😭 It’s odd tho bc I typically eat really healthy so I’m wondering if I just don’t eat enough or something overall? Very mysterious

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

For a while we thought I had POTS or something but my symptoms improved a lot with iron, so I was probably just anemic, however I still get this sudden death sensation of fatigue + lightheadedness + increased heart rate + weakness and it seems to be correlated with diet somehow

120

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

I may just buy a blood sugar meter if it’s only $15 😭 For a while I didn’t notice the correlation but it seems like every time I eat a carb that’s quickly digested (like mochi) I get rly dizzy/weak/hungry and have to lie down. According to Dr. Google this is called “reactive hypoglycemia”?

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

odd question but are any of yall diabetic? I’m wondering if what I’m experiencing is related to low blood sugar, but it’s odd bc I definitely don’t have diabetes (tested negative every single time) and I’ve also tested negative for every single thyroid thing or anything that causes hypoglycemia

Thankfully the mute button works and I've only had one bootlicker try to mansplain the animation industry to me (I literally work in the industry) but there are a concerning number of PQRTs

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

I went viral on twt for being based again and now people who claim to be "animation fans" but are just corporate bootlickers are showing up in my notifications

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

i think it's more of a mental age thing but also bc i'm like a professional animator now my mindset is very different from most fandom ppl and so it gets grating seeing very opinionated takes from "fans" that have zero basis in the reality of how the entertainment industry or the real world works

hot take maybe but it's harder to read japanese without kanji than it is with kanji... if there's no kanji all the hiragana kinda blurs together

I haven't gotten to this part in Shippuden yet but I imagine when they put Kakashi's face on the mountain it was kinda like this (ft my narutosona)

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

I really like the way grief is handled in this show overall tho. Like they really let us sit with the characters (or their absence) and even let us mourn them ahead of time (if you're a manga reader and know what happens next). Like you really feel the weight of death

020

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

Shippuden is really one of the series of all time because episode 82 is extremely arthouse and incredibly well directed and then several hundred episodes later they give us the Robot Naruto Filler

120

tmtortellini 🐯🐾 @tmtortellini.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

Episode 81 of Naruto Shippuden when Kakashi says "I'm really starting to take a liking to you!" and Naruto thinks he's coming on to him... Why on Earth would Naruto think that... I guess I see the logic but it's kind of an odd gag

anki cards are kinda goated... i studied 40 new vocab words and it only took me 13 minutes... altho as predicted i'm getting mixed up between simplified and traditional characters, but in general it's easy to guess the meaning cuz i just read it w the mandarin pronunciation. my head hurts now tho

The language departments at uni are nice because they’re like “Yes!!! Come learn my language!!! All are welcome!!!” and the music school is like “If you’re a non-major and you even LOOK at us we’ll kill you to death”

my vocabulary is also all over the place because i learned from otaku stuff so i don't know how to say anything that's actually relevant to normal conversations

why does 言 have a hat in chinese but not japanese. also the fact that it's "言語" instead of "語言" is killing me... it's the same thing but backwards... this is like when i first started learning and was like "you mean the japanese word for 'cake' is just 'cake' in a japanese accent"
