Me: "This training is required for access to the system" everyday for the final week before go-live.
A week of silence from managers of the hold-outs
Go-live.
Managers: OMG WHY NO ACCES?!?!??
Me: *drinks tea calmly*

I strive to achieve this level of happiness and contentment.

You know what music players need? A "thumbs up today" button - as in this music matches my mood NOW. And a thumbs down "Not today/not now"

Last night we had to send Kawaii back to Genkii across the rainbow bridge. It was rather sudden - she's had kidney disease for a few years but it was only in the past day there was a sudden change.

I would love to say it's just ignorance, but I'm fairly certain it's idiocy attempting malice.

If you observe April Fools, remember it should be funny. Not mean.

if you thought H. Clinton should go to jail for having her email server - where are you now?

New Theory - they don't want to share the Signal group chat because of all the sexting.

You need to remember the poem "First They Came" and even if you despise them, whether the person currently being detained, tortured, deported, harassed, silenced - are you going to speak up for them or are you going to wait until no one is left to speak up for you??

I am a wallflower in a new group or when I'm still figuring out how my character behaves. It sometimes takes me a few sessions to really roll in. OR I am feeling uncomfortable because of another player - and if I don't trust the table to stand with me if I defend my personhood. It has happened.

Browsing a game sub on Reddit, see this conversation. We should make this mockery viral.

with a battleaxe!!!!

As a writer, I often think up random things going on in a character's world which they may or may not know anything about. I like to let the reader know in some way, so they feel the immersion of the world.

All cats are just cats. I didn't know how or why. They just are

he might have bought me my own because I kept "borrowing" his. Ironically, he did the random option and we got this one!

To clarify this is my "small drill" for quick projects 😂

Real men aren't threatened when their women love power tools.

I mean.... Tears are a difficult thing to argue against

I have been on a "throw out all the stuff" binge. Like Kondo-on-steroids feeling. Hard to do with a 5-year-old though.... he wants to keep every piece of paper and every rock and every bottle cap. It's less a pendulum and more a wall I keep flinging myself.

Dinotopia was one of those formative books in my childhood. It hit right at my dino-craze phase and I STILL have my copy and love it.

Think of it as the Upside Down but more... minimalist. Pls share so we can behold your genius (or judge you, lovingly) 😘

It isn't Schadenfreude because there is **NO** joy. There is only anger that people are getting hurt. But damn it people... we told you this would happen. Stop doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

I definitely needed this smile tody.

You think they just need some self-hugs and bouncy rooms?

I figure 6/10 is either showing glaring errors but generally good, OR very well made but a niche crowd will be the ones who enjoy it (Planet Crafter).

This thing about using all-caps instead of learning how to use sentence casing needs to stop. There is a reason we have double the characters to communicate. We need you to use them.

On the one hand, it is impossible to schedule a meeting with you if you use block time and your calendar shows 100% unavailable. On the other hand, I understand people need block time to get important tasks completed on time. There is no win here.
