Best wishes for your brother, Consuela.
I graduated high school in 1980 and law school in 1988. So far, only Toddson is getting much sympathy from me.
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Is he in a situation where he'd get some sort of package?
They laid off 25% of the staff, and he'd been there less than 2 years. So I'm not sure what he's getting. So frustrating.

Because books.
Anyone know what our career breakdown is? We have to more lawyers than anything else, even teachers. Or librarians!

I was going to refrain from noting that Toddson would have gone to college with my mother, if my mother hadn't dropped out in her junior year, before Toddson got there. But hey, I know a couple of '75ers - have we talked about this? You did archaeology, right? Did you know Naomi Norman?

Well, I meant what people are trained to do. But I definitely agree. Sadly.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I went to college on a radio scholarship. I was the first woman general manager of my college radio station.
I did not go into radio. But that's what I trained to do. I have pretty good pipes, but am rusty as hell at reading copy. I tried with Drew to do a recording of Vampire People, and he had to coach the hell out of me, bless him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
they have an array now: a luminizing, a skin tone evenness, and a color correcting.
Well, is the clear one luminising? Does the clear one do something the colour correction one doesn't?
Oy. I have more clothes. I wanted something specific. I wanted a non-transparent white top that wasn't a button down shirt. Four stores, and no. Two of them I asked, and they agreed they didn't have it. So I ended up buying a white tank top, hoping it will address the thinness issue with my existing white top.
And somehow also acquired a silver ring, rocking statement multi-shade grey natural stone necklace, grey top with ruffles (I had a bet with myself that I couldn't wear ruffles. We'll see), and a grey-blue v-neck sweater. I think the portacath is making me self conscious, and it's coming out in v-necks and necklaces. I've worn one every day this week. Which really ends up drawing attention to and then kinda hiding the vein scar.
These requirements people are annoying. You don't assume the requirement is to meet the existing process if you don't know the existing process. Work out what you need, and then on the back end find out if the existing process meets it. It's about WHAT YOU NEED. That's what requirements are. Don't talk snippy to me because I try to drill down to that. Question mark is good enough is not good enough.
And people are giving me shit about how I've worked on this project. Bite me.
