Quick Thoughts on Microsoft P⚙️wer Aut⚙️mate: A Review

Microsoft Power Automate and AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude are reshaping productivity. Dive into this practical review for insights and real-world examples!

What’s On My Mind Today? Automation has become more than a buzzword—it’s a necessity. Microsoft Power Automate is a standout tool in this landscape, offering a way to design workflows that not only boost productivity but also serve as a foundation for more advanced automation down the line. After a brief dive into its interface and features, I’m struck by both its potential and its challenges.…

(separating this into its own post bc I need the validation of the radiostatic enjoyers)

Alastor absolutely believes that everyone else ALSO thinks that Vox is the most charming and attractive demon in hell, it's just an objective fact - just like how Vox is an annoying clout-chaser constantly trying to upgrade himself towards more and more validation

--

Like imagine, for whatever reason, Vox is at the hotel and he's bitching about Valentino, and Alastor is nearby because he doesn't like or trust Vox alone in HIS hotel.

Vox: And then the fucker said that he only sleeps with 10s AND Vox! That absolute bitch, how DARE he?! After everything we've built!

Alastor, confused: The distinction makes sense. I fail to see how THIS is the thing you take fault with, considering everything else lacking in the moth.

Vox, mortally offended that his rival-crush ALSO thinks he's ugly and trying to pretend he doesn't care about it: uh, FUCK YOU?!

Alastor, now both confused and offended: If he included you in the scale, no one else would rate a 10? Although I suppose it is true about what they say about television rotting the brain, if your offense is taken at a rare show of consideration and NOT the publicized and continuous cheating. Ha ha!

Vox is so caught off guard that his screen immediately glitches, and it's not until he does a full system reboot that he can even RESPOND to what Alastor just said.

Alastor is making fun of his flimsy technology when Vox comes to.

Angel is cracking up in the background, watching this entire thing go down.

Vox has no idea where to go from here.

Opinions on US elections? What could this mean for the relationship with Car?

...Wish I could give a proper answer to this but I'm not sure what you mean by "Car"?

EDIT: OH RIGHT THAT'S HOW I NAMED MY PARTNER PUBLICLY HERE ONCE AND I FORGOT I'M A DUMBASS (I used false names for that comic project about our story, so as not to reveal overly personal details TwT Sorry I didn't even keep up with my own stuff TwT)

...OK so... For me personally it doesn't change anything to my plans. The main reason I want to marry them is because in 2020 Trump called a travel ban on people from my country to the US, and the democrats didn't get us out of that one either for a year after that. I think most people forgot anyway. I've lived in fear of such a travel ban coming back ever since because it was horrible to bear with, so now that the guy who put up the travel ban on my country is back, if anything, I'm more determined than ever to marry them and join them over there, so we can be reunited and protected against any such form of separation before he fucks up any chances for that again.

That said... That's one very specific part of the picture and I have yet to discuss it with THEM properly yet. So I don't wanna project my own choices on them. I don't wanna get them stuck in a situation they'd rather not be in. So we'll see I guess. But as far as I'm concerned I'm still down to head to that dumpster fire anyway and face it with them if it must be so. To be honest, even if I stick to my position in France, the US has an art of making what happens in their country everyone's business, with consequences all over the world, and I'm expecting it to be even more the case with him, so I don't think other countries will be particularly safe either.

the number one thing i noticed working at the law firm and also just being alive is that everyone digs themselves some shitty holes sometimes, and occasionally even dig their heels in for a bit, but a lot of people love to enthusiastically keep fucking digging no matter what. and that is the definition of an idiot if you were curious

Controversial take?

I think Gelis is my favourite.

Like, in the whole House of Niccolo.

Artist Ask Challenge!

Number 18! 👀

Humans. Hands down. Ever noticed how I never draw em? It's in part because to me furries and anthros are just. So much more interesting. But also because I find humans IMPOSSIBLE to draw. The few times I have, it's ended up... okay. Not my greatest work.

This is also why I never really make gijinkas. Like ever. It's always bugs and monsters and such. If I have the choice, I can and will make creatures out of humans.

Someday I gotta work more on em. That day is not today lmao.

im getting real sick of 'intelligence'

who decided reading books and writing counted as intelligence? who decided that getting high scores on a strict, unfeeling system meant you were better than everybody? who decided that people should be turned into numbers, tie their worth in society into numbers, to compare people on a scale that ultimately does not matter, so that the people who didn't dump everything to perform for it are berated and the people who did end up with nothing?

who decided not reading or writing was a lack of intelligence? who decided that living differently to them was a sign of lower 'societal worth' than those who conformed?

Nicholas viewed him. His face, gleaming fawn under his hat, was fretted, Godscalc saw, by the loops and rings of brown hair stuck to fresh, dimpled cheeks whose innocence seemed as always in harmony with the large open eyes, their whites and irises so distinct that they seemed to reflect heaven and earth in their soft, rounded expanse. Innocence echoed by the full, relaxed lips and profound voice. Innocence belied only a little by the curious, fastidious nose, and the set, perhaps merely stoical, of the chin and the jaw. Innocence wholly belied by long acquaintance, which taught that the features so assembled were the outer manifestation and cloak of a man few people knew – perhaps none.

one of my favourite things in house of niccolò is when a character describes nicholas and makes him sound like an absolute dreamboat even though technically he isn't conventionally attractive
