What if I told you Spies Are Forever is actually about engineers?
I would be a liar, but I could tell you that
Engineers Are Forever <3 it's a musicallllllll it's not about spies!

Two weeks of straight studying made this cathartic
#tf2#team fortress 2#tf2 engineer#my art#sketch#I honest to god have a perm that’s why my hair isn’t straight#my random thoughts: whenever I ask a question in thr tags of my reblog someone always answers me#I think that’s so kind of them. but they’re like always anons and I cannot thank them for relieving me of my ignorance like bro 😭#come back. I’m really grateful bc it clears stuff up to me caus I touch grass a lot and don't really know anything online

What are you guys' headcanons for what the foxes' majors would be? (as in alternative majors that you think they would take, not their canon ones)
#I'm actually just curious#personally I'm an english lit andrew truther tho I can also see him doing law#aaron seems like a civil engineering type of guy or pharmaceutical science maybe#I'd say physics for neil#history suits kevin too well so idk but perhaps archeology????#social work for renee? or maybe anthropology#wait actually neil also fits linguistics#I genuinely think allison would major in art history or architecture#dan: education#matt: geology (don't ask why)#nicky: philosophy or communications#I forgot katelyn#anyway I think she would do forensics tbh#aftg#all for the game

my deep dark secret headcanon is that in modern times alucard would be a special ed teacher (or would at the very least be really good at it if he tried)
(the reasoning behind it is that working in special ed classes takes (among other things) compassion, the ability to read people and an endless well of patience, all of which alucard has in spades especially for children)
oh that makes sm sense 😭 tho if i gotta be honest with you alucard would be great teaching children, he probably wouldn't have the patience to teach teenagers/adults... i feel that teenagers tire him very quickly and he wouldn't have the patience if they didn't get it at the first try (did you see how easily he was pissed at richter 😭) he DOES have a huge soft spot for children however, so he would be super patient with them!
#anon#ask#alucard#castlevania#to be honest i feel that alucard is that type of person that makes you feel dumb#but not intentionally yk he's not trying to be mean#he just knows too much stuff#and when he talks about something super niche you don't know about he's confused at you like. why wouldn't you know that#because to him stuff like high magic or fucking nuclear engineering isn't all that special or complicated

Planning a 911 (ABC) fanart
This is going to be a small patchwork wall-hanging. It started with some upcycled fabric - and perhaps you get why I thought it had to be used in a 911 project?

I thought I could use other upcycled scraps in a kind of sound wave pattern, in homage to the "what's your emergency?" clip often used in the show. (No doubt this is a very unoriginal idea but yay two cakes!)

(It always makes me think of our JLH but of course also used with other great dispatch voices [Abby, Josh, Linda, Grace, May])
Here's a sound wave of *my* voice (I make podfics and this is what I see when I'm editing)

I wanted the iconic red colour on a black-ish background though, so I twiddled with colour settings in Canva and was happy at this:

Several quilt patterns are available that have this kind of design of a sound wave... and I especially like a concept behind this one, it's the soundwave made when someone says "Love". So now I should let you know that the word I'm saying for the audio file seen up there is... "Buddie". [Listen to all of it, click here]
So now I pull strips of red and very dark fabrics from my stash(es) and focus on solids or dense patterns. I'll "wave" my magic wand (and probably have to get out the inch and three quarter hose, maybe even the saws and jaws) and achieve a pleasing effect eventually. There may be some subtle effects to be achieved with the quilting stitches / embroidery, we shall see.
Btw I'll use the OG teal fabric to frame the piece. Determined to crowbar it in there somewhere lol.
#buddie#911 abc#911 fanart#fibre craft#toughpaperround reads#my fanart#i don't have a tag for that yet lol#lexis audio editor#quilting WIP#quilt in progress#quilt as fanart#scrappy quilt#upcycled fabrics#if only i had a piece of kiddy print with fire engines on i would make it the backing that never gets seen 😉#911 fibre crafts#create b4 u consume#this will get finished after my break#why yes i am an empty nester why do you ask?!#911 fibre craft#toughpaperround makes#now complete - check out the notes for the progress images!

hearing about how many students/peers my age actually use chatgpt is terrifying
#📜.qi texts#I was talking to a couple friends from one of my classes and we were discussing about studying for an upcoming final quiz#and one said “oh if I don't know how to get the answer for one of the questions (in the final quiz practice papers) I just chatgpt it”#and another went “oh yeah same me too!”#and I was so stunned because ?????? why ask chatgpt when looking for actual accurate information and treat it like a search engine?????????#why use chatgpt to begin with????#the day I actually use chatgpt of my own accord is the day I'm no longer me and I've lost it all#I'll end up forgetting how to write if I just rely on generating ai garbage#(I'll feel like some hound with their teeth and claws filed down something something)#+ the environmental consequences....

If you dare to make fun of percyfan94's thomas fanart, then i hope tashalovesduncney harasses you and doxxed you
In fact, your an awful piece of shit for not having the same interests as him you twisted girly bossy bitch
Bruh what???
Who are you talking about I don't even know who that person you're talking about about me "making fun of their fanart"???
Also, you're threatening me WHILE having the anon option on.
If you were brave enough, you could have just sent me that ask with your account.
Thanks to you, I now have to turn off the anon asks after this.
#ttte#thomas and friends#thomas the tank engine#ask#send asks#harrassment#doxxing#Hey does anybody know who that person that anon is talking about?!?#I don't know who or why I was apparently “making fun of their fanart”

why is everything engineering now. I'm doing my homework and one question is "What is the wavelength of a microwave with the frequency of 900 MHz? Include reasoning." bitch I'm studying HORTICULTURE
#before you try to explain an answer to me I need you to understand I don't fucking care. i dont want to know the answer to this.#i walked out of lab today bc they were showing us how to do remote soil sensing and it was literally just fucking coding.#if i cant even garden without having to enter console commands then what's the point of being alive#im so so so so so sorry engineers but I'm going to have to kill you all for making your field the only one left on planet earth#doesn't help theres AI images used in the course modules. i didnt need to see even a real image of a drone over a corn field but thx.#a friend in the class also asked why I left bc it was easy. so now i feel stupid too which is great. god im so sick of computers

americans being unable to say that there are people who are certifiably smarter than you and better than you at many things is why we got to this place in the first place. like no the "research" you did on the covid vaccine is not better than the research done by the scientists that have degrees in the field. you are actually dumber than them in this area because they have spent far more time in it. you have so little knowledge on the subject that you don't even know what you don't know. obviously
#this is the same for like every field btw. i’m not as good of a writer as people who went to school for writing. or art. or architecture#or physics or etc etc etc#i AM a better chemical engineer than people who didn't go to school for it#american individualism ruining everyones life once again#this isn't to say you can’t be intelligent or know anything if you didn't go to school for it. but you have to be able to acknowledge that#there are some things you are dumb about!! regardless of education level#and there are ways to study up on topics in a non-academic setting (and you should do this!!) but those methods need to be reputable#and not joe rogan.com#like there are WAYS science is verified for example. and if you don't know those and you go into reading a paper or a “study” you can VERY#easily be lead astray because you simply don't know what you don't know you are not always the smartest person in the room#MOST of the time you're not actually#and no one can admit that anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!! so they just believe and do whatever they think they know instead of asking questions#and learning things#they just blindly believe they are right and they like the people who don't challenge them so now trump is in power#(this is why they want to dismantle the doe by the way)

ive never had such an emotional rollercoaster of a day what the fuck
#a good thing made me lose it this time jhbvhdhj#i got a worrying text from my dad just before my lecture started so i left#cue minor breakdown in the corridor#professor definitely saw me leave because i was at the front in the middle#i just emailed him to apologise - he doesn't know me but i wanted to say i didn't mean to be rude#also said i enjoyed his lectures#he replied and his email says-#'I shouldn't say this but going by your coursework you are doing very well indeed'#then well done and 'i didnt just say that' dfjhbjhdfvgh#that's. nice#for context- he always jokes about awkward silences in his lectures because he asks questions and insists on an answer#i said i enjoyed the lectures despite any awkward silences#and he was saying i can talk to him privately if i have questions (bc he knows people don't like to talk sometimes)#hence . led on to the coursework comment#idk why i'm sharing this i'm just trying to bask in a win for once#marks aren't released yet so that's very good news#because it was a mechanical engineering report#and i don't do mechanical engineering#so i struggled#apparently the struggle paid off#thinking about how hard i would smash this degree if i didnt have parents acting up ffs#i will thank my professor for the news i definitely didn't just hear from him#and i won't tell him he just kind of handed me the strength to maybe survive the rest of today#thank u professor martin#i will rate your module so well in the end of module survey

#Stressing because my 1 on 1 meeting with my boss is Tuesday afternoon#when he'll most likely tell me I need to come into the office more days each week#and I'll have to fight to be reclassified as a remote employee so I can keep my same work schedule#(which they should've just done 3 years ago when we had this battle originally)#And I'm scared they'll argue with me and make me come in anyway#And I'm willing to (and in a position where I can) quit over this but I don't want to because change is scary#😬#So basically I'm trying to keep myself calm and confident by telling myself it would be sooooo embarrassing for them to lose me#simply because they're trying to force me back into the office#Like that'd just be the most embarrassing reason for losing me as an employee#Because - you guys remember that post talking abt how there's always one woman at your job that no one can say exactly what her position is#but she knows everything about how the office runs and you have to go to her for everything?#Yeah that's me in the engineering department at my company#That is absolutely me and my work is aware of that and knows they'd be screwed if they lose me#So again I ask WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY TRYING TO SCREW WITH MY WORK SCHEDULE THEN?????#😭#Just leave me the fuck alone and let me do my job! Damn!#I've been here for nearly 13 years and am a good employee who doesn't cause trouble!#This shouldn't even be a conversation let alone a battle!#for fuck's sake

not me going to digital tech sector job events and every company rep being like "you can scan our QR code to learn more" and me going "my phone can't do that" and taking a picture of their name instead to google them later like the tech-averse old man that I am
#(phone probably can do it I just refuse to figure out how)#apprenticeship search is going well why do you ask#they don't even have the urls under the QR codes anymore smh#I swear I know how to use a computer and do coding and stuff#I just dislike my phone connecting to the internet and paying with anything other than cash#I'm a normal 26 y/o looking for jobs in data and software stuff I swear#(oh yeah Idr if I posted on here but I'm gonna do a apprenticeship cause media industry can go fuck itself for the time being#I need job that will pay me money that I can rely on so we're becoming like a data analyst or an engineer or smth)

I wish I was like a god at cars and just able to fix that shit in my yard with ease and say yeah the shitbox 4th plug just needs a bit more elbow grease but I ain't letting this fucker die yet, yet here I am kicking its damn stationary wheel for the 50th time
#i speak#my car has every issue known to man and it pisses me off to no end that I dont know /enough/ to just force it to work forever#because no fucker around her deals with my brand of car and won't admit they're also tilting their head sideways because#brother don't ask me why they put that there i know it's fucking stupid but just. work with me here#a battery for a car SHOULD NOT BE NEXT TO THE WHEEL EVER AGAIN#cc and olguita my car didn't blow up a secondary time while its been living life rotting in my drive way#im just watching people getting 60s cars running perfectly and I'm mad again about my princess baby >:(#amd buying cars in this economy... oy vey#anyways if you read this far: william is good at working on cars far more than henry#while Henry can make an animatronic. hydraulic engineering isnt the same as a hunk of metal that purposely explodes itself to move#also will is British french and we know how french weirdos are about cars okay have you seen a French car ?#i don't think he's obsessed with cars like most people hc him to be but he def lived out of his car for a long time in his early 20s#and thus had to learn fast on keepjng his literal home moving
