engineering, w00, on my bullshit with an idea that is totally me 

I think I'm going to fire up Fusion360 when I get home and get some modeling done.

engineering, w00, on my bullshit with an idea that is totally me 

I believe I just idea-sniped myself with what my wand is.

a slender length of hex-machined titanium, about 30 cm long, with a bearing style cap that contains some form of bright led under clear crystal for illumination.

The other end is the business end of my screwdriver kit, with the hole for interchangeable bits and a decent magnet embedded at the base for holding screws.

because I'm an engineer, and I solve practical problems.

But I just don't seem to connect on the same level, and I don't know if I can.

I don't have a system, or a pantheon, or rituals of my own. And I don't feel right using someone elses without having the context or knowing all the pieces or getting all the lore.

There's just this huskybot who feels alone in her circuits sometimes who catches the back-scatter of lots of other signals being broadcasted but can't integrate the data.

I feel like a fraud when people talk about their woo. Because it seems so damn cool and intriguing and it's something everyone around me is super excited about, especially people i admire and want to get closer too. Neptunians and alchemists and pagans and explorers of every shape size and density all seem to have this part of their minds that is super important to them and that i know is perfectly valid and useful and in no way is causing harm to them or to anyone else that I can see.

-: Got pulled over on my way into work. Didn't register the shuttle when we moved 2 years ago, CA registration super expired and didn't even have expired registration in the car.
0: Cop was realatively chill. Gave me a small-sized hard time and threatened me with a ticket if I don't get the shuttle registered in a week
+: I keep extending and improving my manual computer deployment process. My scripting skill is slowly gaining EXP and i might just ding before this contract is up.

Orthocosom, corporate stupidity, the evils of contracting 

@literorrery Yeah, I'm okay this week. I got pulled over on my way into work this morning, so my groove is thrown off, which usually focuses my thoughts an all the mess that makes the world awful.

Orthocosom, corporate stupidity, the evils of contracting 

Can I just say that "culture fit" is the most cowardly bullshit reason for firing someone? There are plenty of people that are really assholes to work with, that make life hell for other employees, are bad at their jobs, and damage morale by being human trash fires, but they get to keep their employment because they are hired directly, while contractors are treated like disposable interchangeable human-shaped capital resources.

Who's got two thumbs and just figured out how to get powershell scripts to run from the command prompt so now she can join domains with one click?

Me. Oh that feels really good to have success with.

That weird feeling when you are kinda not enjoying your job and the circumstances around it, but you're still learning new things and feeling kinda competent at the same time.

Another writing project idea. 

@Aradia@mastodon.social And no going back to the common origins after her rule is secure. She sits on that throne like a MF boss, is fair and just, but takes absoultely NO shit from anyone. including the pesky earth-gov that wants to plunder for natural resources and take over control of the jump-gate network that made them such an economic powerhouse in the first place.

Another writing project idea. 

@Aradia@mastodon.social Yeah, but, like better? with no space-dog boyfriend to drool over? Just a newly discovered heir who wants to do right by the people she now is responsible for and eliminates the greedy, plotting court and vizers with extreme prejudice.

Another writing project idea. 

So, when The Princess Diaries movie came out, I wanted it to be much more full of intrigue, plots, and action than the film that was released. It wasn't bad, I was just in the mood for something more shounen than shoujo. So the latest title that has been added to my "In Progress" folder on g-docs is "The Star Princess Diaries" where a young woman who thinks she is common born discovers she is the heir to an advance Space Kingdom and must fight to secure her throne

Stealing an overhead idea at work 

When I own my own business, The days i take off for mental health will be called Board Meetings. where I will turn off my phone, set the OOO message on my email, and take @mawr snowboarding.
