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

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.

Inspiration

The screen lit on my face like some half assed light at the end of the tunnel.
I wondered when it would tell me all the words to write down,
what great epiphanies it would reveal to me.
I found out that the glare stings after a while,
and that the words will only come with a sacrifice of
blood and tears
onto my 101-keyed altar.
I never did get any beautiful, flowing words or heartfelt confessions though.

All I got were these.
