@Leucrotta Honestly, I doubt MCA would want to do anything with a loan processing company. Doesn't seem like it would've been his thing.

Birthdays (CW: Parents, extended family, +) 

Hay my birthday Zoom call with my family yesterday. Wasn't intending to have the coming out/name+ pronoun fight, and I didn't.

The call went well, though I don't know that it had to be on Zoom. Probably could've been an email.

But I got some encouraging text from my cousin and his husband, so that's good.

Uptime Anniversary Milestone 

36 Solar orbits completed. Still waiting for the future I was promised. (Yes, I know I wasn't "promised" one. Not the point). My friends care about me. My plush loves me. My boyfriend loves me too. Could be worse, I guess. Love you all. Thanks for being my friends.

This high. (CW: Drugs) 

I've only been there a few times, but damn its nice when I get to visit.

re: Working with the river tribe [UPDATE] 

The cluster manager who "led" us through the past few months has been banished from the River Tribe.

The Regional manager is stepping in to lead us directly.

During the call today, I got to unload my 2 talking points

-Web Services makes amazon over 50% of their /profit/ and are considered "essential", but not essential enough to be compensated for being forced to accept the risks of working during the pandemic

-Being told frequently by leadership that they don't have a plan, or can't talk about their plans does not build trust.

re: Working with the river tribe [UPDATE] 

Back at work after 2 days of being sick. We sent a message that has apparently been heard.

But I'm not holding my breath. Spend the start of yesterday kinda freaked out, thinking that if the RT sees me not being at work and not noticing much change in the numbers, then they might start questioning if they really need me around. That was a un-fun thing to think about. But I have just trained 3 new contractors in a 4 week period, and I got each one mostly ready to go.

So we'll see what happens. Meanwhile, I'm gonna keep doing my best.

re: Working with the river tribe [UPDATE] 

So, now apparently all Essential Workers for the River Tribe are going to get actual hazard pay.

But not me. The River Tribe Web services make the tribe more than half of its profit, but we aren't considered worthy of care.

So a bunch of us are gonna just gonna be sick tomorrow.

re: CW: Father's Day, coming out. UPDATE! 

So, I was supposed to call dad yesterday. The anxiety of waiting got the better of me. So I text him and say "Hey. I know I said i was gonna call you, but I don't know how busy i'm gonna be today. Nothing big, I'm just trans. Been on HRT almost 2 years. Thought you should know" Just so I could deal with the familiar anxiety of waiting for a response rather than dreading having a difficult real-time conversation.

He never responded, but mom texted me, saying that I was courageous and still loved.

Me (texting back): Yay!

macro furry trash posting 

@LexYeen@snouts.online the clumping helps pull out fur when we need to shed. If your fur is more sensitive, water immersion is usually more gentle

@anthracite valid! I'd recommend the non-cgi, non special edition if you still haven't seen it.

@anthracite Pretty sure Rafiki counts as magical, and he's not a villain.

@dandelion@snouts.online Depends on which fursonal we 're talking about. and which aspect of which fursona.

@marlfuchs@snouts.online @witchfynder_finder It is disgusting that Legislative capture is a viable business strat.

re: art wip, slutty link I guess, bunny 

@fluxom_alt I'd join that onlyfans.
