Happy October! Has Billie Joe Armstrong received his annual wake-up call?

The director of one of the programs I work with is super into AI; I rarely have a meeting with him where he doesn't mention having done something in Claude, etc Today he said he'd wait for me to put an analysis of something together vs asking Claude because he trusts me more

Times are getting a bit tough on my end, and having some work lined up would help immensely. If you have any need of editing or sensitivity reading, please keep me in mind!

weirdly the book that feels like a blend of the goblin emperor and the hands of the emperor doesn't have an emperor (there is a sultan, tbf)

oh absolutely 100% in the disappointed column though to be fair i'm not overly impressed with my 20-year-old self; not many good decisions happening (and none that even resulted in good stories)

If God is gonna convert a person then God is gonna convert a person. What hubris of us to think we should go about harassing people into a faith. A person's relationship with the divine is between them and the divine and unless they ask you to get involved, you stay the hell out of it.

The idea that I have been at the same job for 13 years is very wow where did time go 2013 was a different reality (I'm on my 4th employer and 5th role, but the employer changed around me (and kept promoting me lol); still work with the person who hired me and in the same building!)

In related storytelling news, I'm deep cleaning as much as I can in my bedroom and wondering how much of my need to hold onto tangible reminders of things is because so many people around me in my formative years tried to deny my lived experience and remember only the bits they approved

why some people be mad at me sometimes

they ask me to remember mine.
but they want me to remember
their memories
and i keep on remembering

This (and thread ⬆️) I was contemplating a decision on a bunny last night and wondering who I could ask about how folks would react to a specific decision Then I read this thread and remembered that folks don't get a say in my storytelling. Many thanks to Chuck for the needed reminder 💙

Did a lot of sorting through old, messily stored belongings today and wow am I glad to have tabs upon tabs of unread HR fic to apply to my emotions Also I accidentally reframed some past happenings in a healthy and productive way, which somehow was harder than the 4 hours of physical labor

Actual text I just sent: At some point I will stop having SO MANY FEELINGS about Paul Gross being in Heated Rivalry but I don't expect to reach that point until 2030 at the soonest

Busily reccing Paul Gross must-see works to HR-fan coworker It does feel a little odd reccing dS to someone who wasn't born when the show started but needs must

omg there was something realistic on the tv show Outer Banks because dismissing a category 1 as beneath concern and deciding to stay on a barrier island during a category 5 during a mandatory evacuation is absolutely what these 20-year-olds would do
