Timelies all!
Not to be all "what they said", but if I have hurt or offended anyone here, I am sorry. Please forgive me.
Shh! I kinda wanna hear me talking right now!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I like these superhero-tinged swimsuits: [link] Dr. Doom's is the best, but I'd wear 1/3 of them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Those are super cool.

OMG. My project manager, who has always been difficult, has gone off the rails. Her last email to me I seriously want to respond with "fuck you, I am not an idiot for being unable to read your mind, and I won't do a shit ton of work hoping it might be what you wanted, if you won't give me actual directions"

Yikes, meara.
And yikes to everyone else, as well. I send you good ~ma, inasmuch as I have any to send.
As for me, the boss who mostly ignores me (and is the guy who LAID ME OFF last year, let us not forget) came by my office to inform me that they got permission to hire (the org. had been in a hiring freeze) for, basically, the position I am filling.
He made it very clear he wanted me to apply for it.
I am chronically incapable of confrontation, and was only able to boggle at him, and then say "Thanks for the heads-up!"
Please dear sweet jebuslug, let me get an awesome job before I have to decide whether to stay here forever. The work is getting some better, but this team is where careers go to die.

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
Oh 'suela, I hope you are in a fabulous job by the time the hiring period closes on this one. Job~ma to you by the bucketful.
meara, argh. There's not much more to say.
What new shows should I be watching this year? I'm hopelessly lost, and I trust you all to lead me in the right direction.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
The employer who asked if they could contact my references didn't do so. And they told me I didn't get the job. I guess that's better than talking to my references and then saying "Nope." I'd be all paranoid about my references then. Still, I'm a bit unhappy about it.

Apparently Amazon's Transparent is supposed to be brilliant. Me, I'm two seasons behind on TGW, and 3 eps behind on DW.
Are you a cartoon fan? Because Legend of Korra has been really good this year, and is just about to start its final season.

Ugh, Calli. I'm sorry. The job hunt is so demoralizing sometimes.
