This might sound really dumb when I say it out loud but boy have I been surprised by how much of "engineering effectiveness" in a huge company is just finding the really good humans in other teams, building personal relationships with them, and helping each other out.

@amdusias@snouts.online Oof. I feel you 100% on that one. My therapist and I actually talked about how I've not been taking care of myself and doing the heavy work in sessions I need to be re: the same. >.<

@Leucrotta I call stuff like that my Bardic Knowledge. Kind of an "I only remember the most useless shit, but when it comes in handy..."

@Veladynee IT IS SO GOOD. Like, little bit of butter and just NOMNOMNOM.

So I kinda messed myself up with work this week (work did it's bit, but I let it, really), and ended up waking up at 1AM (basically Dublin TZ) last night. That turned really really happy this morning though, because I got fresh baked french bread right out of the oven and I HAVE BEEN EATING IT ALL DAY AND I AM SO HAPPY.

re: uspol, violence 

@rey I mean, that's litterally what they called it. XD

re: uspol, violence 

@rey I'm really a very non-violent person, but shaving a few of these folks with the national razor appeals more every day.

Commission for @twofold_fgc who asked me to draw a character I designed for them a while back.

"We wish to speak with your seventh son."
"I only have six sons."
"Impossible! Are you not, yourself, a seventh son?"
"I am."
"But you have only six offspring?"
"No, Merle, my daughter-"
"Dad," Merle said, "they speak truth. I... I haven't told you, but... I am your seventh son."

re: Support ask for today. :boost_ok: 

@kelseyhusky No worries. I'm up at 2AM supporting a site in Europe that can't get its act together on top of everything else, so I feel you.

Support ask for today. :boost_ok: 

If you can spare, I could use a little loud love and support today. Good vibes, good things you think about me. Just... Tell me you remember me and like me, please?

re: Support ask for today. :boost_ok: 

@kelseyhusky *hugs so, so tight* I'm feeling rotten too, but I've got you all the same. <3

@Leucrotta Yeah, fair. I thought about whether I should be linking that, but decided that one was pretty safe. <3

MH, middle of the night technical bullshit 

Me, up at 2:30AM configuring MPD on my server because of an anxiety attack earlier that had me pass out mid-day? What, you kidding? That would neeeever...

@rey I feel like I'm laughing way harder at this than I should. XD
