So how does that lead to so then there’s only negative things to say? It is, once again, not out yet. I’m starting to dislike being in any community around games, because everyone appears to just hate games. It’s exhausting.

Why are y’all so damn negative? Every thread I’ve seen on here about Starfield has been like this. It’s not even out yet, god damn

Re-reading Hyperion by Dan Simmons. I read it as a teenager the first time, and I wonder if I’ll get something different out of it in my 30s now. I’m also reading Heart of Dominance by Anton Fulmen along with my wife. More of a book for them than me, but it still has good information to glean regardless. If I want to include graphic novels, I also just finished Sunstone. It was sweet and entertaining.

I just got my rejection email for the job at the beginning of the week. Thank you, by the way! I’m proud of myself too for getting through several rounds of interviews despite my brain screaming to not step outside. I’ll try again when they do another hiring round in November, I suppose. Maybe I’ll get lucky the second try?

That’s incredibly sweet of you, alas I am in Canada and also would feel guilty because I don’t know how to accept gifts or kindness lol

It’s been pretty awful, sadly. As Neil Gaiman says, “Events are cowards. They come in packs.” It’s been one blow after another all week, and I don’t think I can handle any more bad news.

While this is awful, I feel like I’m missing something? This article was published August 25, 2022. Did something change for this to be making the rounds again almost a year later?

It’s the Latin version of my name (which is just a tree), and vox for voice. So, Juniper’s Voice. Rather on the nose, but I like it.

I read it in a bad sci fi book when I was about 14, and it just stuck in my head until I finally came out. Also I like trees and gin.

I applied for a great job that I’m definitely not qualified for, and I’m through the first two rounds of interviews. I didn’t even think I’d go to the first interview purely because of my agoraphobia, so I’m proud of myself for pushing through it.

I just started leathercrafting! Working on my first wallet this week, but I forgot to get an edge beveler. So it is delayed for a bit before finishing. First project ever though.

I’m excited to see a leather working community start up here on Lemmy.

New West could be made into such a lovely area with this. Hopefully it would encourage Surrey to lean into it heavily as well over the next decade before they become the main population centre.

Yes please! I love a place with people sharing their writings, and audio can be overstimulating at times.
