One of the phrases that can make me throw out pretty everything you say is "I use ChatGPT every day." If you're outsourcing your thinking to the environment destroying word predictor, why should I trust any resulting information from you?
To say they missed the boat on this is an understatement. I loved Firefly way back when and now I am full "yikes."
Is there a person out there that actually likes and uses the "removable" feature of removable pads in workout bras or was this a feature designed to annoy specifically me?
I love being an animator, but the two wolves warring in me are the one with an impatient streak that can never fully rest until the task is done and the one that chose a profession with large amounts of careful fiddly work.
Happy Birthday!! 🎉 🎂 I hope you felt well enough to at least carve out some time to celebrate!

Thanks to my friend with that coveted platinum trophy on Ghost of Yotei, I was able to update my portfolio. Admire my fish, show your friends, come back tomorrow when my upload limit resets & I can post more, tell your studios to hire me, smooch me on the forehead idk

The memeification of the government genuinely makes me feel crazy. My brain can not square it with reality, that this is a real way people with an official gov platform choose to act on the world stage. I know it's been more than a year, but every new thing still gives me insane mental damage.
:( don't let her fool you!
Cat sitting in a cat tree by a desk, looking smug and unapologetic, her natural expression
Boo this cat. Sissel bit me during my 1 on 1 and you can tell she regrets it none.
Picking up my cat like a baby and explaining to her this is different from the other times I pick her up and cuddle her, this is punishment baby jail for her actions and she should not be currently purring.
I cooked a gochujang based dish while wearing a white shirt AMA
Cat curled up in a pile of reusable shopping bags on a small stool in the entryway.
Morgana loves reusable shopping bags more than she loves following me around to lodge her complaints from the day, so whenever I pass her here, she does her best by giving an indignant meow.
It's funny never having played Resident Evil and seeing all the thirsty Leon posts and not knowing if they're canon or mods/fanart. I'm choosing to believe it's all content actually in the game.
Cat curled up on couch, both front legs stretched out in front of her, one stretched out a little further to be lightly held by a human hand
Watching movies, holding hands/paws
This bit in the From Russia With Love game made me laugh out loud. You've got a fairly grounded, low key fight based on the one in the movie, then the most video game looking fucker of all time slides into frame.
Finally, a visual representation of the inside of my mind
When things are bad, my fingers get snip happy, and I've been idly wondering if I can pull off a hime cut.
No, I just used that to not dirty the pan. The other instructions were, you cut off both ends before you put it in and just make sure it's in the oven on the top rack.
A half-peeled korean sweet potato, showing soft fluffy interior
The Korean sweet potato hack (375° for 30 minutes. Ice bath for 2min, 425° for 30min) is legit. Perfectly cooked and fluffy.
This is typically my amount as well, though I'll confess before I had to worry about my caffeine intake, I would occasionally drink three, but max it was 48g.
Every single time Polymarket pops up in the news, it deepens my innate response to boo and hiss whenever it is brought up in normal conversation. So many things suck now and online betting on everything is definitely one of them.
"Hey!" I reprimand my cat as she knocks over a salt and pepper shaker while trying to get as close as possible to the area I'm scooping out the food. "You're supposed to be a graceful creature," I tell her as she missteps and tumbles right over the edge of the counter.
JFC. Can I please log on for some good news
That said- I’m immediately looking for my next role! I am:

- expert systems designer, esp gear, progression, economy, skills
- easygoing, skilled communicator
The wildness of just how online you have to be to understand all the errant posts is too much. I frequently sign onto here with no context and spend my time going "wait, what happened?" until it's time to leave.
Eye doctors seriously tell you in the most neutral conversational tone "so if you ever see a black curtain, that would be your retina detaching and you should treat that as an emergency" and it's like yeah, thanks for the heads up, but I probably would have done so w/o the warning anyways????
From a purely human level, the Trump likes Mamdani thing isn't mystifying. Mamdani has insanely high charisma and the good sense to not be baited into anger. & Trump has the most odious people around him, so it's probably nice to talk to someone who is an actual pleasure to interact with.
As I get older, I fully believe I will shrink even smaller and be overtaken by my glasses which will get bigger.
I am in my yealy "damm, girl. You blind" appointment. 😭
This is a Nazi move. Stripping people of rights, invalidating their IDs, setting them up for criminalization and imprisonment.
If you don't support trans rights, you support fascism.
