The clicky-test said I was 31. Ha!
Now I want a cupcake. Or a Twinkie.
Nobody can tell Marmaduke what to do. That's my kind of dog.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
and I just looked up what that is. Strix has some company this week
Heh, I was all "I KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!"
ION, I am drinking Harney & Sons Holiday tea (a black tea with citrus, almond, vanilla and clove) and while it is not as as my True Love (H&S Tower of London) it is quite nice on this chilly but bright day.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I used to stuff my face on those brownie cupcakes (the ones without frosting, natch) and I haven't eaten one in months. One day they were too sweet too. My mouth makes stuff up. But I don't mind going off sweet as much as I hate my stomach not handling hot.

Our wings are not tired.
Our best guess is that you are 34. Is it close?
Woo! I am 59 with the mouse dexterity of a 34 year old.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
ita !, no, the Miami pre-teens one.
I am a 39 year old with the dexterity of someone who's 53. I am looking sideways at these tests.

I feel awkward trying to reduce the number of colours in this presentation, but we can't depend on red-green-yellow-grey to convey information because a) black and white printers and b) I definitely know of one red-green colour blind person in the eventual audience.
But I thought I'd made that point before, and I pointedly encoded the information in writing and colours, and now the writing part is gone.
How much do I argue with a director?

Ah...Miami New Times? I call it oppression by The Man, then. It's really definitely worth reading, though. Beautiful and sad. And kind of inspiring, even to a heart-dead person like myself.

How likely are people to print it, and how much do you need to enable that? I.e., is the intent for them to be viewed on screen?
We have an official color palette we're supposed to use, and when it first came out someone went through and recolored all of our standard graphics.
Nice, but less than helpful on the ones that show a performance scoreboard - red and green are pretty instantly recongizable as indicating a project on or off track. Various shades of pink and grey, less so.
