how am i supposed to think as a woman in STEM when I grew up in a household where my engineer dad implied I couldn't be anything but an engineer, while at the same time only sharing his most visceral criticism towards the woman engineers at his company, then saying to me "but you're different, Amy."

i don't know what I'll find here, but if there are any engineers who design molds/dies/mandrels on this website, was it easy for you to pick up or did it take time? Designing a device for manufacturability felt so much easier than designing a mold for manufacturability. I feel so dumb. #engineer

i s2g whatever neurosis I have prevents me from accepting when coworkers say it's ok and I'm doing fine. Cuz then I just assume they are saying that just to make me feel better and don't really mean it.

Designing molds for tipping catheters is hard. All the other engineers say it's hard and it takes a lot of time to really get a grip on it compared to just designing a device on SolidWorks, but I can't help but feel dumb since I'm a senior level engineer.

I feel a certain anxious nostalgia when I see the kids all going back to school. Yeah, the kids may get Summer break, but I don't envy being back at that age when my future was so undefined and I worked 8+ hours for free. Also, realizing I masked all of high school and had undiagnosed ADHD.

no I will not play TS4. They've had over 10 years to fix it and it's still a downgrade.

dude Sims 2 is better than I remember. TS3 is still bae but playing TS2 rotation style gives me what I loved about TS3 in the first place - a world that evolves. I used to just play one family forever and get mad that 6 generations of kids had the same high school sweetheart.

I get so paranoid that people will think my partner and I broke up, when in reality, I take my ring off a lot to work with my hands and forget to put it back on about 50% of the time (tho I still love that obstructive opal I asked for so it's my bad). Ringless at work today.

and somehow me trying to keep the peace and argue that "God made man in his image, so god probably feels love when any human shows love and gratitude towards humanity, even if the person isn't Christian" was like saying a slur.

My partner even had a fight with his parents about the level of recruitment at the funeral service when it should've been ppl sharing memories about Memaw. His parents don't even go to church. They blew a gasket when my partner argued good actions please god more than saying you're a Christian.

I was skeptical too & pleasantly surprised! I was worried Nolan would try to make the story "realistic" but he definitely leaned into Greek Mythology. Tbh, if someone told me Guillermo Del Toro helped on this movie, I'd believe it. It felt like Pan's Labeynth at times.

Stitching Starlight @stitchingstarlight.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
KY pastors treat funeral services like an army recuitment center - spend more time saying how ur never gonna see Memaw again if you only believe in God & don't go to church. Who gon' tell him that the Memaw my partner knew never went to church either & that she believed there was good in everyone.

ya'll two funeral services in Kentucky these last 2 years - lemme say something - Protestants are fucked, and that's comng from an agnostic person who was raised Catholic (but my mom agreed a lot with JW doctrine so we had JW lessons weekly as kids with a family friend).

If a woman looks tired while doing her work, don't fuckin approach her. Don't waste your breath so you can say she looks angry or tired so you can chuckle. Just fuck off into the ether instead.

Family emergencies, sudden trips to Kentucky, funerals, awful cold I have that somehow isn't COVID, haven't had a weekend where I've rested in a month. No, I will not be masking pleasantries today at work. You get mega cunt Amy who doesn't want to hear anything from anybody who isn't my partner.

lol got my hopes up too much that CONCACAF rep would get farther in the cup. I should be happy that the US, Mexico, and Canada got as far as they did (maybe I had higher expectations for Mexico ;_;)

Oh FIFA is suddenly corrupt now? Not before today? Suspending Balogun's red card is the first corrupt thing FIFA has ever done ever? That's the thing that is tainting the World Cup? No other action FIFA has done before or ever will do could be worse than this? #fifa #worldcup

I have intentionally acquired these vintage Barbies for the purpose of fixing them and turning the left one into Princess Serenity and the right one into me so I can make matching outfits with her (specifically a matching wedding dress). Mod era barbie is ❤️.

and sometimes you find out you're demisexual. Which makes people just assume you're straight if your partner is the opposite sex. But I'm not straight! Let me tell you, I triedddd. Dating other men did not go well At ALL.
