#why engineers? don't ask

[kairithemang0]

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!

#spies are forever #idk #i really dont #why engineers? don't ask #<3 #tin can bros #tin can brothers

I made these silly images of the mercs holding MLP figures, so do with them what you will

#team fortress 2 #tf2 #tf2 scout #tf2 medic #tf2 engineer #tf2 pyro #tf2 demoman #tf2 heavy #tf2 spy #tf2 soldier #tf2 sniper #mlp #my little pony #friendship is magic #mlp fim #don't ask me why i made this #i wanted to be silly goofy #also i hc that pyro was the first of all of them to watch the show and the rest accidentally got hooked while watching pyro #they share headcanons with each other

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

#shedinja #now THIS is what i'm talkin' about! i love shedinja. i think it's a very unique pokémon and wonder guard is very *cool* if only it were ever #y'know. relevant. this thing is weak to way too many types for it to be relevant but like it's still cool in concept i think #you kinda can't tell what it is from this angle but that's why you have me here to tag it so you do know what it is #so. bit of a life update for you all. i accidentally deleted some semi-important files i needed for work. like two weeks ago #and i didn't realize i did‚ bc they were inside a folder that i deleted. but i didn't need the files at the time and i hadn't for months #i hadn't used those files since like last year. but now i need them again and i just realized that i deleted them two weeks ago #by accident? and now i need them again. to be able to do my work. so i'm actually queueing this guy and the next guy up #while i'm supposed to be working. as i've just sent an email to my boss being like Haha Hey. Do you Have a Backup of tHese Files……… PLease #and i'm hoping DESPERATELY that she does. if she doesn't i'll have to fucking reverse engineer them which i am not excited for #if it comes to fruition. so i'm just hoping she has a copy of them. feelin like shedinja against a fire-type rn fr i swear #i'll let you all know what she says when i get her response. if i get it before i'm done queuing up shedinja and whismur #spoilers. whismur is next but you could just look up the natdex numbers. and know that whismur is next #also don't tell me to look in the trash. on my computer. i know they're not there. for one i checked and for two they couldn't be there #because i rm -r'd the folder. i didn't just right-click delete that shit. i killed that shit. it's GONE #you might be asking me… why would you do that! and i would say? i did not know these files were in there #you didn't ask for all this information so i'm cutting it off here

[leqclerc]

#i am once again asking what the fuck happened between february and the first week of may #this is why i don't get how people can say 'oh im sure charles knew ahead of time he just didn't know when xavi would leave exactly' #when nothing he's said today suggests he knew? or agreed to it? #and the timing is bizarre like if this was the plan all along why not do it before the season started #and not 6 races in with no explanation #charles even defended him in front of the press yet again when they were fishing for information #asking if this will mean communication will improve which...... lol fuck off #they didnt even have any major communication issues this year and the stuff that happened before was a result #of general pitwall fuckery - especially in 2022 when the mismanagement and chaos was egregious under mattia #feel like im just yelling into the void but this is seriously pissing me off #say what you want about xavi but this was objectively handled very poorly on fred/ferrari's part #not discussing the issue with the driver is already pretty bad but not even informing him prior to/during the miami weekend..... #that's just fucked up #i can't see mercedes or red bull blindsiding lewis or max like that #even mclaren like afaik whenever someone else has to step in as race engineer for the weekend the driver is aware in advance #like they literally just cut xavi off at the knees to do? what exactly? shove him in some dusty corner back at the factory or wherever? #never to be seen again? yeah fuck them ugh

Fucked Up 3D Henry: I am not Percy.

Fucked Up 3D James: Eew. Henry, why do you look like that? You're even uglier than I remember you, which is saying something.

Fucked Up 3D Henry: I humbly request that you to stop acting so impolite, James. Furthermore, I will also request you look at yourself. *Hands James a mirror*

*Without any warning, Edward, Toby and Emily all arrive to meet with James and Henry*

Fucked Up 3D Emily, Toby and Edward: *In text-to-speech voices* Dear L&YR Class 28, have you any conception of what is happening right now?

Fucked Up 3D James: Warmest greetings, GNR 1003 Stirling Single, GER Class C53/LNER J70 and FR 21/K2 class. I, like you three, have no conception of what is happening right now.

Fucked Up 3D Toby: *In a text-to-speech voice* That is sorrowful news. I would like to alert you the combustion happening near me is at a temperature far above my comfort level.

Fucked Up 3D Edward: *In a normal voice* Toby's saying that we all got yeeted into a black hole after somebody blew up our spaceship up and that's how we got here. I don't know why you're all talking like that but I'm not going to do it.

Does anyone know where I can find the good quality version of this image? It's so frustrating because when cross searching on google it'll tell me the original quality is 850x478, but I can't find a way to download it in that quality. This is another version of the image (I'm guessing it's Mayoi promo art):

But I liked the clean white background one...

#It's cute... #It's got Akutagawa stealing glances at Atsushi #Thought asking was worth a try ;;;;;; #Google cross image search has changed and as someone who used it as I use breathing it's been absolutely heartbreaking. #It makes cross searching images so much harder it's awful #Because before when you looked up an image it suggested you the best quality avaible of that image. #And the search got worse every year but it was still functional you know?? #But now there's not that anymore. There's no “large” “medium” “small” and instead it only gives you “find image source” #Dude I don't want to find the image source. I've downloaded the image I KNOW the source. What I want is ANOTHER SOURCE with better quality #And I used to get it when I was 10 and I used to get it when I was 15 and I sued to get it when I was 20 #And now I don't have it anymore?? It stripes away one of the most powerful search tools on the internet from the public???? #It drives me insane. Like why does internet get worse every year that's not how humanity is supposed to work #Sorry. I needed to rant. This makes every quality-freak media archivist (like me) job harder beyond comparison #Btw if you're looking for an alternative Yandex images still does the work... It's not as powerful search engine as google #and it's often going to miss the particular hidden media (y'know- super niche Akutagawa merch from 2018 and stuff) #But for the rest it does a pretty good job. If anything there's still the best quality avaible option #But seriously looking up stuff for aktgw-daily has gotten so much harder ever since this fucked up change to google lens #and it makes me hate the world. I haven't been able to find a way to reverse it but if anyone more tech savy than me who has any idea- #what I'm talking about can help me. Please please hmu I'll be grateful forever #Sorry for the rant I have a lot of pent up rage over this. Stop making broke people's lives harder challenge #random rambles

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)

as someone who doesn't know or understand absolutely anything about mechanics or engineering, engines look like AI-generated art to me:

like I take a look at this and I might as well be looking at one of those pictures with eight fingers and unidentifiable blobs. Who knows what any of all this shit does? Not me. I'm not sure anyone understands it either, but if some people say they do I'll trust them.

#cosas mias #that's why my engineer characters just do stuff and never talk about how it works #I don't know how it works and they don't know how it works it just works you know? no need to ask more. rude.

[ranger-kellyn]

being "good" at your job is such a fucking crock what do you mean i get even MORE WORK AS A RESULT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#FINALLY finished the 130+ sections of inventory for one of the other engineers #only to be asked to do yet another engineer's inventory #like!!!!!!!! at least the first engineer's assistant doesn't do inventory so of course i was the natural choice to help #but now i'm helping another engineer with his even though HIS ASSISTANT ALREADY CAN DO INVENTORY #WHAT'S HE DOING WHY AREN'T YOU ASKING HIM TO DO IT WHY ME?????? #and WHY!!!!!!!!!!! if the inventory deadline is fuckiNG TOMORROW!!!!! DID THEY ALL GO ON A TRIP THIS WEEK #IT'S A SYMPOSIUM THEY'RE NOT /THAT/ IMPORTANT #why did they all LEAVE on the week of a very important deadline!!!!!!!! why did our supervisor approve that!!!!!! #i wanted to be done with inventory so i could stop stressing about it but!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fuck me i guess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #i'm not even TRYING to actively be a good employee up until last week i was sure i was gonna get a bad mark for me midyear #i dont WANT any of this extra work!!!!!!!!!! #i'd have to look at my original job description but i'm still pretty sure inventory was never technically a part of my official duties #ugh #i hate this i'm so tired i don't want to do MORE #do all this fucking inventory then spend 20 hours across the next two days in the fucking office i'm so sick of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #negative

Merry Christmas to you 🎄🎁😊

30+38 :)

30: What I hate the most about work/school

There is far more administrative busywork at this school than there ever was at my school - stuff that does not contribute to the teaching of children (which is kind of the point). It drags on me.

38: My childhood career choice

I don't know that I ever really had anything beyond the cliché dreams of being a professional athlete (baseball first, I would think, segueing into basketball) as an actual child... by teenage years, I was leaning toward architecture or something with computers.

#I originally went to college for computer engineering #(and had applied to another college for architecture) #wound up enjoying my humanities courses much more than the engineering ones #and the rest is history #so to speak 🤭 #lesson planning is just such a waste of time to me #why am I documenting what I'm planning to do #and even more uselessly what 'objectives' it meets #rather than - you know - ACTUALLY getting ready to do it? #every minute I spend doing administrative tasks is one I don't spend prepping for classes or grading things #(and there is a LOT more grading to do) #oh - having to keep attendance is annoying too #including 'tardies' 🙄 #which lead to detentions #public-school level bullshit #and it's not even a public school! #thank you for the questions! 😊 #asks

A style of clickbait headline I keep seeing recently involves a medical term- often literally in quotation marks- implied to be some new scientific discovery, only for it to be the technical term for something already known to every human alive and mundane as hell simply being used because it’s unfamiliar and so people will click the Thing to see what it means. Actual examples I’ve seen are the technical terms for a sore throat and runny nose being portrayed as new Covid and flu breakthrough discoveries.

#I can't quite articulate why but this type of headline annoys me so much #but. hhhhhhh #they annoy me like little else #please don't click on these lol #if you're unfamiliar with the term just ask your nearest search engine #please don't let this format well and truly catch on #stuff

Oh boy my cringe fail fantroll from like 5 years ago for a defunct fan comic I was making with a group that never went anywhere past trolls.

What a perfectly normal guy I don't have to draw in any other way.

Your name is ARETIS MEGIDO and you are an EXPERT CODER and HEAVY MACHINERY REPAIRTROLL.

You are on the UPPER END of your EIGHTH SWEEP which means that you are being set up to be the FIRST of your TENUOUS AT BEST ACQUAINTANCE GROUP to be CONSCRIPTED.

This would actually be GREAT FOR YOU in regards to getting OFF BEFORUS where you will be worlds more likely to actually be allowed to work with CODE and CIRCUITS. Because Condesce forbid you want to pursue a field even just two castes above your station you uppity rusty. You want your whole neighborhood drone struck?

So you keep your more inventive pursuits to yourself. All kinds of scrap materials from your job no one notices you taking.

Yes, you would have no problems EXCEPT being the RESIDENT IT TROLL of your group has brought YOUR ONE ACTUAL FRIEND to your DMs begging you to FIX A GAME for him and ALSO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLAY IT WITH EVERYONE BEFORE YOU GET CONSCRIPTED PLEASE?!?! <:33

And who are you to say no to the one troll you can actually stand who is also the only thread keeping you attached to your TENUOUS AT BEST ACQUAINTANCE GROUP who you are still DESPERATELY HANGING ONTO because you will have ZERO FRIENDS otherwise?

#homestuck #fantroll #fan descendant #ig? #man who smells so bad all the time because he consistently smells vaguely burnt #man who half the player base had no idea was playing until the third pr fourth meeting when he's finally dragged out of wherever #half asleep rust blood whos like 5'5 and built like a brick shithouse who smells like burnt hair shuffles up to a meeting #adds nothing gets asked who he is refuses to elaborate and leaves and this is the last time most of you see him until he gets the tiger #the one thing is that you all can tell him that ANYTHING computer relates is broken and he can fix it no questions asked #unrelated to the above rambling but ALL of the Beforan descendants except Porrims (bc all jade bloods afab) were genderbent for reasons #and i don't remember why but yeah Damara's grumpy engineering son in the loosest sense of son #I pulled his name from Arietis the group designation for stars that make up Aries (name pronounced Air-eh-tis) #fancy tier #fancy dreamer #man who accidentally grabs a soldering iron and just drops it and says ow 0_0
