SISYPHUS GETS A 9 TO 5

Girls and their 🦔

The thing about being religious is you'll talk about your beliefs and/or experiences with non-religious people, and they'll sort of pat you on the head and say, "Yes, what a nice little idea, I'm glad that you have your beliefs to comfort you!" and every time you have to bite your tongue because your religion isn't just a "nice little idea" to you, it's a cosmic truth that underlies all things, and furthermore, although God Himself has comforted you, that doesn't mean that faith itself is comfortable, but if you put any of that into words, they'll look at you funny.

I've gotten a couple asks about this so I'll go ahead and address this stuff now,

Josh has never been anything but a gentleman towards me. He has never, in all the years I have known him, brought up anything inappropriate/sexual to me or made me feel uncomfortable.

I can understand why people may be concerned about my treatment in the fandom in hindsight, but the FireRose shipping stuff that we did intended as just a fun gag between our pony characters. In hindsight, we maybe should have been more careful with how we presented that gag, but, seriously, I was fully okay with it and none of it was sexual in nature or pressured me in any way. I was over 18, too.

Nothing about our friendship had a negative effect. Josh has always been a safe and kind person. Looking back as an adult on how grooming situations can occur, honestly I feel super grateful and glad that the people I hung out with at conventions, like Josh, Lightning Bliss, Dr Wolf, and SilverQuill, would make sure I was safe and comfortable. Nothing ever happened that was out of line or sexual.

Josh is a great friend and these grooming accusations are slanderous and untrue.

There is another way

By the Nine, keep your whore mouth shut

Pretty sure the other way involves keeping your whore mouth open

Hell yeah

GODZILLA MINUS ONE ゴジラ-1.0 (2023, Takashi Yamazaki) x

godzilla minus one is crazy because it's basically this incredibly serious and tragic story about a man that wasn't supposed to survive a horrible period in human history and the direct aftermath of it and then every once in a while godzilla shows up and it's one of the scariest things you've ever seen in your life

 aka: I’m fulfilling 10 year old me’s dream of wanting to draw this set of pictures because I thought this hidden cutscene was so damn cool and I’ve been holding off playing crisis core until I finished.

I finished up a rough animatic for my game's intro cutscene!

A couple job interview hacks from someone who has to give a job interview every single goddamn day: (disclaimer: this goes for my process and my company’s process, other companies and industries might be different)

1. There are a few things I check and a few questions I ask literally just to figure out if you can play the game and get along with others in a professional setting. Part of the job I interview for is talking to people, and we work in teams. So if you can’t “play the game” a tiny bit, it’s not going to work. Playing the game includes:

- Why do you want to work here? (just prove that you googled the company, tell me like 1 thing about us, I just want to know that you did SOME kind of preparation for this interview)

- Are you wearing professional clothing? I don’t need a suit just don’t show up in a ratty t-shirt and sweatpants.

- Are you able to speak respectfully and without dropping f-bombs all the time? Not because I’m offended but because I don’t want to be reported to HR if you wind up on my team.

- Can you follow simple directions in an interview?

2. Stop telling me protected information. I don’t want to know about what drugs or medications you’re on, I don’t want to know about you being sick, I don’t want to know if you’re planning to have children soon, I don’t want to know anything about your personal life other than “can you do the job?” 

3. When we ask, “What questions do you have for me?” here are my favorites I’ve heard: - What does the day-to-day look like for a member of your team?

- If one of your team members was not performing up to his usual standard, what steps would you take to correct that?

- What can I start doing now to accelerate my learning process in this job?

- What are some reservations you have about me as a candidate? (be ready for this emotionally….it will REALLY help you in the future, and I’ve had people save themselves from a No after this, but can be hard to hear)

- In your opinion, what skills and qualities does the ideal candidate for this job possess?

- What advice would you give to a new hire in this position/someone who wanted to break into this industry, as someone who has worked here for a while?

Those are just my tips off-the-cuff. I work in sales in marketing/SAAS, so these can be very different depending on the industry, but I wish the people I interview could read this before they show up. 

Yes STOP TELLING PEOPLE PROTECTED INFORMATION IN INTERVIEWS. do not volunteer anything including “I’m currently pregnant.”
