I’ve been very fortunate to have known trans people for most of my life.

I grew up with a trans friend, my college thesis advisor was trans, and I have watched several good friends go through that journey of self-discovery.

My life is so much richer having known so many trans folks <3

Now I have to figure out the best way to tell my boss he fucked up, and do it in a way that won’t put any heat on the jr. staff person.

Dealing with a tricky situation at work. My project manager completely disregarded the (very good) work one of my more junior colleagues me did on a project, which understandably left the jr. staff person very upset.

I offered to speak to the project manager on her behalf, and she accepted the help

Love when I have to wait weeks for a client to send critical data for me to do my job, and what they finally send is not at all what we asked for 🙃

Made croissants from scratch with my mom <3

Did a full puff pastry over 3 days!

Yeah, that’s what initially drew me to it, but it ended up just being a fantastic guitar on top of that!

2022 American Original 60s! This thing is my baby <3

I’ve been working on a guitar arrangement of Kraid’s Theme from Metroid, and I LOVE this riff from the original version (which often gets left out of other versions of the theme).

It’s so much fun to play! 🎸🎸🎸

(Still working on phrasing and playing it smoother)

I was not expecting two of my media obsessions to come together here!

Fucking hell, I was thinking of you when I saw news about the layoffs. I’m really sorry you have to go through this, and I really hope you find a place that treats you right.

Can’t have any of that gay tofu shit. I only put MEAT in me.

HAPPY 30th THRESHOLD DAY!

I would have intuitively put the Akira under the miranda style, but you’re totally right that it has a secondary hull!

Another pattern - miranda styles tend to not have a deflector dish (with some exceptions, like the NX and Bellerophon)
