update: it has applicants take an assessment and ranks them on how good they could be, if they get 50% or lower i have to review it.

it will not show me the questions or their responses. I just have to fucking guess???

my nightmare is that its racially profiling people based on name (it might be?)

my direct job is untouchable by ai (ai cannot hang up a poster or clean a building) but corporate changed our hiring systems from one that worked perfectly fine to an ai assisted one that conducts preliminary interviews with a chat bot and we haven't hired anyone since because it's broken to hell

family day out

a drawing of gastly, haunter, and gengar from pokemon. they are drawn with lots of looping, overlapping lines, with few colors underneath, using the resulting hatching as shading. its inspired by the pokemon tales books drawn by aya kusube that feature this pokemon evolution line.

perhaps ive too many plushies

a picture of my freshly made bed (got a duvet cover haha) featuring a giant crochet blanket at the foot of the bed and many, many plushies. here is the list:
Anya from mouthwashing, stitch pillow pet, life size stitch, both sam and max from their titular series, moomin, smiley bone from bone, a whale i got at the zoo, bites a lot bat the snughoul, a devil build a bear in a suit, Dingle from itemlabel, a koala webkinz and multiple crane game toys (a pumpkin head guy, a heart print bear, and a puppy with a heart). off camera are like 20 other plush items hanging in a crocheted net over the bed.

partially just posting because I have been like. really going through it the past 2 years and it's been uh. a year since I cleaned my bed actually. and im proud of myself for doing it finally :)

im normal im having a normal time

a screenshot of a forum post from 2015. the topic is "Rikki Don't Lose That Number: Lyrical Interpretations" for added context, in the top left corner you can see the Spotify (im using up the end of my subscription believe me it's canceled as of like. a week from now) bubble saying that the song Rikki Don't Lose That Number by Steely Dan is currently playing and that also it's 2:02 am. Anyway the text of the post reads:
This song is sung from the p.o.v. of a gay man who has had a sexual experience with a straight man. The straight man, horrified at what he has done, wants nothing more to do with the singer and the song is the singer's gentle way of urging him not to cut off all communication channels because of what happened, leaving the way open for at least a platonic relationship.

I'm not the only person who's interpreted the song this way, although Donald Fagen (understandably) prefers to leave things ambiguous.

There are other interpretations, but I think the one I've given is the strongest. Unless you know better...?

a reply to the previous forum post. note that the song playing now is Brian David Gilberts cover of Lay All Your Love On Me (in the styling of a vampire) anway. the forum post quotes the initial query and responds with: I agree, but I always thought the gay man was urging the other guy to try and accept himself and leave himself open to the idea of a sexual relationship.

img id: the first half of a crochet block of the counterfeit mini rudinns from mancountry in deltarune, the red/orange one and the green one. the background color is also green so that one is a bit indistinct. we love them still though

very sad that incorporating bits of dark crystal dialogue is not normal outside of my family and like 10 people online. the kids at work ask me a silly question and i say "dont know!" in an aughra voice and they call me things like "old" and "weird" as if they are insulting adjectives to have

a woman yelled at me because she wanted a receipt, did not ask for a receipt, and then walked away without a receipt, and claimed i should have psychically communicated with the person who rang her up (thats right. wasnt even me) that she needed the receipt so she could "write off" her 3 icee cups
