Huskybots (OC please don't steal) 

The combined form of 5 Axiom class huskbots is called AXIOS, which means "I am worthy" AXIOS can be piloted by 1 (giant robot style), 2 (Pacific Rim Jaeger style) or 5 (Voltron style) Beta huskybot platforms, but it is not required, since AXIOS can function autonomusy under KA's control. KA just pilots AXIOS cause she's a dork and c'mon, who wouldn't want to pilot a giant combining robot?

Don't get me wrong, I love Burn Notice as a show, but sometimes the characters communicate worse than people in anime.

My name is Michael Westen… 

Michael Westen. I used to be a spy. But instead of always compartmentalizing compulsively, I have interpersonal communication skills so I can talk openly with the people I care about and I trust them to be able to handle the events of my life maturely, so they are reliable resources instead of liabilities I have to spend time worrying about.

I went on a wonderful high velocity, long distance burn to Weed tonight. And when I was there, I heard a very beautiful piece of music, that I'd like to share, since, @neonNeptunian was kind enough to record its coordinates as I was too busy at the time. youtu.be/w1Z-V2xey-Q

Free time (- - +) 

Anyone want to hang out tomorrow afternoon? I've had a massive sudden opening in my schedule. On the other paw, I can hang up my orthosona in the closet for a little bit and don't have to wake up as early in the morning anymore.

Mood snapshot (+ + _) 

Feeling much better after a visit to weed last night.

@literorrery And its not like I don't realize that fixing a broken company isn't a worthwhile job (orthosona-ly speaking) but i mean, spreadsheet wrangling and process creation is so far outside my comfort zone and I'm feeling really out of my depth and priorites change on me it seems weekly and there is apparently lots of feedback that is going to managment with only pressure getting down to us instead of details and, and, and...

Headspace snapshot (- - -) 

So, work is, well,
It's been weeks since I've fixed a computer. I've been eyes deep in spreadsheets. I've had more meetings with the CIO than my manager. Each meeting feels like I'm getting away from my competencies and being pushed into things i feel like I'm not prepared to do. So that's been really hard to deal with. I really feel strong fixing technology, not fixing the company. Even though fixing the company is a huge opportunity.

It's not me.

Retirement Goals 

1) Buy a 2-axle city transit bus.
2) Gut the bus interior
3) Convert bus shell into kickass RV for me and my person, with shower, kitchen, lounge/guest sleeping area, solar panels, exterior awning, 5G wireless gateway for mobile Internet and murder the thing with RBG leds.
4) Explore, discover, create joy and reduce pain.

@irisjaycomics It was an absolute blast, not just cause of getting the school to pay for plane tickets and park passes to DisneyWorld, but it was one of the few times i really had a feeling of social acceptance and was willingly part of a group that was wanting to have me around. It was good shit for someone with chronic isolation.

@irisjaycomics Oh man, I haven't thought about it years. Getting nostalgia bombed right now. I got in trouble when I was down at the championships cause I went to DisneyQuest alone instead of with 2 other kids from my team like the rules said I had to, so I got my driving privileges revoked. But it was still so much fun. My senior year, i was finally able to convince some friends to come with me and we all had a blast!

@irisjaycomics FIRST, not, the first. For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology. It's a brain-child of Dean Kamen (the Segway guy) to get kids interested in Tech. It was one of my best memories of high school, hanging out with a bunch of other geeks and nerds like me and doing geek nerdy shit like building a robot to compete in robot games. I was a member of one of the oldest teams in the league; Team #6, the CogSquad.

@irisjaycomics I fucking loved DisneyQuest! I went to the one in Chicago with my family and I went to the one in WDW twice when I went to the FIRST Robotics national championships when I was in high school. I made the best roller coaster and I still have the MP3 of the song i made with their song maker room.

@LexYeen which makes sense. Especially if they tried the non-violent approach already and got smacked down for being evangelical techlust zombies. So they got radicalized in self-defense and it just went too far. Cause you know, that's not something that /ever/ happens.

@LexYeen It's not like I disagree that they could improve their interaction model, but we don't have the whole story. The directive to be as openly hostile about assimilation could have come from somewhere deep in the Borg's origin. No organization is immune to inertia.

@LexYeen But, at that point, they aren't really the Borg, are they? the whole point is the "erasure of individuality, being droned, and turned into a terminal of a centralized hive mind" which, don't get me wrong, 🥃 🥃 🥃 , but making it pretty and voluntary violates the Borg's hat.
