(Bandom lyrics for the win! Remember folks, Pete Wentz is not an emotional role model!)
While I'm having fun watching the downfall of Twitter - the shitposting going on is magnificent - I'm also really sad about it, because I found a great community of fannibals there and everyone is going to scatter to the winds.
I'm over on Mastodon, but it's not the same, not everyone is going to go (back) to Tumblr because of the porn ban, and while I desperately want everyone to come over here, I know that long-form blogging isn't how fandom works anymore.

Work is busy (ahahahaaha understatement) but good. I am evilly looking forward to budget conversations with the director of our largest software pillar: "I understand that you feel you don't need any additional writers. Here is the list of writing work projected for next year; please help me determine what 40% to cut from that list." Out of all the weirdness of being a manager, that's the part I really like; being polite and earnestly helpful while I point out how badly someone planned. Because at heart, I am kinda mean.
