star trek nerd stuff 

@LexYeen I love the Steamrunner. It is just so much of a mashup of the defiant and the NX Enterprise and it looks so weird.

I ROCKED IT! Nile wants me to show up to their in-person job fest in early June.

This is doing wonders for my mood since I learned that my current contract isn't getting extended.

-: And there's the anxiety spike, right on schedule.

@emanate And now i need to watch Iron Giant again.

@emanate It does look good in a certain way, I guess. But the trailer gave me a really big "I've seen this done before" and i'm pretty sure this isn't going to do anything new/different. Which, I mean, can be okay, there are kids now who haven't learned why they should be scared of the government/military yet.

-: Obsessively refreshing my email hoping to get a positive response from Danube is not helping my calm.

0: Feeling kinda blank about flying to Cleveland for my little cousin's graduation. Happy for her, but at the same time, it stings that another family member succeeded where I failed

+: There is a huskybot movie coming out this summer. It's a "child and his X" movie complete with "protect X from government that can't understand the specialness youtube.com/watch?v=--8nr2kt4u

I wish i understood circuit schematics more than I do. They are currently very, very difficult for me to decode and comprehend.

Oh spark. That was possible the easiest phone screen I've ever had. I was both super prepared for what actually happened, and way under prepared for what I thought was going to happen. I didn't get any questions on my past successes or failures, how I handled emergencies or difficult users, and nothing about counting manhole covers or piano repair people per capita.

I don't know if I rocked it or tanked it.

If anyone has any prayers, blessings, or cycles to spare, I could use some good vibes sent to my node today.

@Leucrotta I'd draw my own stuff and compare it to the stuff that i've already drawn to really know that I was learning.

-: Really not wanting to stay at my current job means i'm putting pressure and hope on this interview going well, which likely means i will tank it. I'd feel better if I thought studying or flash carding would help.

+/0: Flying out this weekend for my little cousins graduation. She's graduating from the same college i got kicked out of 10 years ago, which is its own brand of family drama that I've kind of ignored cause i'm doing okay now, but history is a still a thing.

+: First round phone screen with Danube tomorrow. Direct hire position, with a semi-decent company that seems to treat their employees with decently hidden contempt.

0: Nervous/anxious about first round phone interview tomorrow. Pretty sure I can knock a passing percentage of the technical questions, but I'm really worried about the social portion of the interview. I can't answer "why do you want to work here?" with "cause it's not a contrract and i like not starving"

@starkatt Carbon. It has so many forms and is used i so many different ways and is very versatile. Keeping to itself but always willing to jump in and bond with anything.

@confusedcharlot Bad timing and an audience that wasn't ready for it. I always thought that Speed Racer the movie would've been much better received if an episode of Speed Racer the cartoon was shown in front of it, just to get the audience into the right "this is a live action version of this cheesy anime import" mindset.

Randomly rating fantasy-ish movies for tabletop nerds; 

@emanate @starkatt @Leucrotta @Oneironott All of the xXx and Fast and Furious movies are physie-adept shadowrun campaigns that started as one-shots, but the players and the GM had so much fun getting up to ridiculous shit that they just kept going and getting more OTT.

Gross (CW: Slurs) 

@literorrery Ugh. That sucks. *sends hugs*

Emotionally Compromised ( + + ) 

I just found these two things again and I am not okay. In a good way.
