A response to an application for work stating, "Thank you for submitting your resume and information. We appreciate your interest."

I've been in the application trenches for some time now and, see, I've gotten some interesting responses to a submitted resume.
But this is just eerie and a reads as a little #dystopian ...

... maybe I'm watching & reading too much cyberpunk media. 😅

Plus two back-to-back Friday the 13ths

No one said "give." No one said we'd be asking nicely either.
That didn't work in either France or Haiti. But you know what did?

Then again it's not like most people even own their property, the house maybe, but the land itself is all owned by the state.
With the right legislation it can be done.

There is also a future where we stop saying things like, "Well what happened happened, let's all move past it," because that's the excuse of ashamed cowards.
Instead we can actively work to repair bridges, mend wounds, and make sacrifices to support those who have suffered silently for generations.

Were he in any other tax bracket, he'd have been charged with major malfeasance, corporate malpractice, and would have gotten 60 to life for the - again - thousands who have died because of him and his deathly ilk.

Plus proving that their prices were artificially over-inflated, just so that the company can drain as much as money they can from its dying, dependent customers.

But to save the C-Suite's asses, just as Russian, French, and Roman elites when their subjects made it apparent that more heads would roll if substantial change wasn't made.

Tell that to the thousands who have died due to his neglect, apathy, and particularly his greed.
As soon as the bastardly was killed, the company dropped select drug prices. Not out to save face, or to do something in their CEO's name, or even to be kind.

Yet the death penalty was just dropped, after having only been brought up because of the ridiculous claims of terrorism.

Because his bag and his completely legal gun were searched by police before he was even arrested. Meaning they illegally seized someone's property without a warrant, which in any other case would be completely in the dependent's right to have such faulty evidence thrown out.

Says the man siding with the government who's trying to kill an American they aren't sure did the crime and are using propaganda to make silly lil guys like yourself to bow down to the might of our corporate oligarchs ...
Self-awareness is a real two-sided blade.

Why should he face the death penalty, even if he were guilty?
Of the thousand Americans who were murdered that very week, those killers only got 20 yrs, plus probation, probably less with good behavior.
But just because the victim was in a particular tax bracket, the crime counts as terrorism?

In Lunarpunk, the City by the Sea holds the Storm Races, where young citizens with suped-up hover shuttles (think a toboggan w/ vertical jets) race across the sky in the middle of a lightning storm while scoring points according to the amount of lightning they capture in the shuttle's shock battery.

Five jobs I've had, in no particular order:

• Baker & Barista
• Baby/Pet/House sitter
• Lead Cook
• Butler
• Voice Actor Liason

Hey Ginny, do you have any advice for lighting a green/bluescreen photoshoot that'll depict an outdoor setting? I would guess that a singule, harsh light would look too ... indoorsy?
Multiple lights? Light grading/hue change?

My PC, a Minotaur Druid named Gordo, remembers most of his childhood & early adulthood when he was enslaved by Humans in Theros and forcibly taken from his home and family to Faerun.
He wishes he didn't remember the feeling of his father's blood on his face, when he was shot helping Gordo to escape.

Have you maybe read her previous novel, An Enchantment of Ravens? It's been in my TBR list for a while and was hoping to start by the end of Spring.
Thanks for the solid, concise review! ❤️

The titular Tyrantess must charm and slice her way through the small fish in this sandy sea before she can get to her big catches at the heart of the Palace City.
The POV characters, however, will only find out a fraction of the subterfuge she'll have embroiled herself within after each banishment.

In Rise of the Emerald Tyrantess, the entire continent has been taken over by the empire. But there remain several principalities and duchies under the God King's rule, as they're an essential part to segregating the subcultures and maintaining an iron grip on those born "blessed."

Abolishing ICE is the bare minimum.

We need to dismantle DHS. We need restitution. And we need trials.

Good job making plenty of baseless, shallow presumption about someone you know nothing.
You keep riding that high horse until it buckles.
When it does so, and you need someone to dust you off, I gladly would while initiating a conversation that hasn't been prescripted by a king three centuries ago.

Sir or Ma'am,
Thank you for your kind words.
I have read the Bible three times, the Torah & Talmud, the Quaran, the Esoterica & the Apocrypha, the Vedas, Eight-fold Path, several myths and morality tales from all over the ancient world.
Were there a god, yours wouldn't be what I want for the world.

An all-loving god would step in and end this kind of abuse.
An ambivalent and uncaring one just sits by and lets the kings and emperors play chess with his "children."
Which one do you see happening?

And what do you think angels are, if not the literal messengers and servants of a deity's will? 😆

Congrats! 🎉
Now on to the fun part, drafting & edits 😁
But first, make sure to take some time to step back and enjoy the accomplishment! You deserve it.

You're just being honest

I'm calling Factor Fexcectorn, because I find my legs phasing through my seat while sitting idly extremely relatable.
And who doesn't love alliteration?

Because it has nothing to do with them and that's the "problem" with everything they hate, secretly or openly.

In Emerald Tyrantess, there are three primary POV's & three secondary, each with their own allotted chapters focusing on the eponymous Biana the Bloodless.
Maliah, Vi, and Keth all experience drastically different facets of Her Grace.
The fun part: Their stories only over lap three times by the end.
