i basically use it for 1 server, which is made up of a group of now-friends that met in ye olde days of twitter (ie 2010-2014ish). it's nice to have separate channels, so you can have a place to talk about serious things separate to pet photos (very important) or hobby stuff or stupid memes etc

Sad and fascinating in that lit fic "nothing really happens but you can't stop reading because you need to know what happens next" kind of way

September wrapped. Been a crazy month work-wise (aka lots of laptop time) and I leant a bit more heavily on audios so I could get some eye rest (although my top 3 were digital/digital/paperback 😅)

I normally listen to audiobooks at 1.2-1.5x speed, but occasionally there's a narrator that's too fond of pausing after every clause and it drives me nuts

I want to see people falling in love in my romance novel. I am delighted to get setting and/or secondary plots *in addition to* the above. If the romance could be removed without altering the progress and conclusion of the plot, it's not romancing!

I am reading my second m/m romance in a row where the romance isn't goddamn romancing and it's making me very cross. --they need to *talk* to each other! on page! --my interest in one character thinking the other is beautiful is inversely proportional to how soon they think it.

Unfortunately I will not be watching The Love Hypothesis because it was one of the worst book's I've read and, as someone with a PhD in chemistry, I wanted both characters to get disciplinary hearings and not a HEA 🤣 but I've been enjoying Lili Reinhart's outfits

Pro: manager is going to put me forward for the next promotion cycle! Con: because of how the company does that, pay raise will likely only come at end of Q4

Anyway, I have a meeting with my manager today for my performance review- please send all the good vibes because I want a dang pay raise!

Saw a smidge of the iced coffee/job interview discourse on tiktok and ngl stuff like this massively helps my imposter syndrome, like wow, no, apparently the average person could not walk in and do my corporate job
