The squad of all time has arrived on scene.

Had to give a presentation for a work seminar the other day.

Didnt have much planned and I usually wing it so I got up there and opened with, "Hello, my name is [redacted]. I'm the security specialist assigned to [redacted]- I talk a lot when I'm nervous, so you're gonna hear me talk a lot in the next five minutes"

This got a few laughs as expected, but then one of my superiors cut in like "I had no idea you had a fear of public speaking, you're always so calm and confident"

so I got to say out loud in front of like 20 people twice my age that "Oh, yeah, no, I'm faking it super hard. Like, all the time." (Gestures at face) "This is fake. I'm always freaking out, all of the time."

Anyhow it went well and I'm getting a raise so like. Be yourself and lean into it I guess is what I'm getting to

still ruminating over Lost In the Book With Spooky Skeletons Part 1, so here's a selection of some of my favorite little bits! (...some more loosely paraphrased than others) (I just feel like Idia has no room to criticize in general, okay)

anyway, I'm sure we're just going to have a fun time celebrating Halloween and nothing bad is going to happen whatsoever! :)

I think one of the funniest things about the Sabzeruz event is that the devs choose to go with Candace, Traveler, and Paimon having a whole "Ooh, two mysterious men are going into an alley to have a 'private' conversation; they must be bad guys!" only to then go "Oh just kidding, it was only Alhaitham and Kaveh doing typical Alhaitham and Kaveh things."

Except the "Alhaitham and Kaveh" thing in question this time was talking about Mehrak, a sentient robot that Kaveh built using absolutely forbidden technology, and which he then whole-heartedly willed would develop a consciousness of its own, violating one of the central taboos of his nation's governing agency, committing what amounts to an inherent and extreme felony punishable by law.

Alhaitham and Kaveh: Listen, we're not bad guys discussing illegal activity here. We're just two men having a private, personal conversation. Happens all the time.

Paimon, Candace, and Traveler: Oh cool, they're not doing a crime; they're just gay.

But they were, in fact, doing a crime.

It's insanely sad to read post after post of gentiles talking about how at least we all have each other and all we can do now is draw strength from our queer and leftist communities bc Jews literally cannot do this. Like you all completely and so utterly turned your backs on Jews this year and we have no one. Except other Jews. Who make up 2% of the American population. It's so great for you all that you can hold hands and sing Kumbaya but you made supporting Hamas and retweeting twitter funny men with literal terrorist hate symbols in their usernames normal. So no some of us cannot draw strength from the queer and leftist communities. Some of us just have to sit here and take it as you all reassure each other that none of this is your fault even though it so obviously is.

ben affleck casually bringing up an affair between succession's kendall and stewy who have known each other since childhood and were bonded like brothers from the beginning even though they rose into their industry as individuals and always have each others' backs as adults because they understand each other better than anyone. i said oh i'm sure

Love spotting an author I know and love in the kudos or comments section of a totally separate fic. It's like looking behind you in the movie theatre and seeing a local celebrity munching on popcorn right there with you.

You need to make art that nobody else likes. You need to make art that speaks to you alone. You need to cradle a serpent that eats its own tail and you need to love it until it loves you back
