Job hunting done. I feel like shit *but*, I feel like I put in for more jobs in slightly less time than I would have trying to clear through email, so that's a useful little bit of information. There's PROBABLY more responsible adulthood I need to do with no spoons because always there is, BUT it can wait till after I get stuff to cook with for a pagany thing.
alternate version of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade in which Henry Sr. did, in fact, mail his Grail diary to the Marx Brothers. Assuming the actual Brothers and not their stage personae, there's a fair chance that they'd successfully sabotage the German war effort, though this assumes Chico doesn't completely spill the beans while trying to schtupp Ilsa.
*sigh* The secret to being successful is actually having enough money and power that everyone wants to play along. I'm sorry, I guess that means "confidence," the egomaniacal certainty that whatever you want is actually the right thing, or that G-d is personally on your side no matter what you do. Great, little job personality quiz thing. Just great.
movie quote, Nazis, long
"Good evening... heh heh, Fraulein."
"The bar's closed."
"Ve... heh heh... are not thirsty."
"Whatta you want?"
"The same thing your friend Doctor Jones vanted. Surely he told you there vould be other interested parties."
"Must'a slipped his mind."
"The man is... heh heh... nefarious. I hope for your sake he has not yet ackvired it."
"Why, are you willing to pay more?"
"Ohh, almost certainly."
"I don't have it. But I know where it is! How about a drink for you and your men?"
"Your fire, it is dying. Vhy don't you tell me vhere it is now and be reasonable?"
"Listen, Herr Mack. I don't know who you are or what kinda people you're used to dealing with, but nobody tells me what to do in my place."

I don't mean to yuck anyone's yum and I'm as vindictive as anyone else but
even assuming Trump actually goes to trial, gets convicted, etc, that frees up the GOP nomination to DeSantis who I actually think is potentially a lot more murderous, it won't undo Trump's SCOTUS nominations, it won't undo Boebert and MTG and all the other more-fashy-than-thou competitors, it won't undo the tax revisions, etc. It will probably allow the Republicans to wash their hands and claim they're the good guys again. It certainly won't do anything about the environment or the shitty inequalities whitewashed by the Democrats as usual as how we're enjoying unprecedented prosperity.
It's fixing the barn door after the cows come home, and the barn door may as well be on the moon and the cows may as well be Iron Age bones dug up in a midden.
I’m tired of living, I’m tired of being me, and I’m ESPECIALLY tired of living in Seattle. If I were elsewhere maybe I’d have fursuits, cons, an Aeldari army and frequent games, a train layout, something. But nope, because it’s very important my landlords get $75 more monthly from an apartment and neighborhood not visibly different from when I moved in.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
