He’s like, “Optimus, how could you???” 😭

Two job-hunting resources that changed my life:

This cover letter post on askamanger.com.
A job interview guide written by Alison Green, who runs askamanager.

Shout-out to @ms-demeanor for putting these on my dash again, I’d like to add this exceptional interview question “answer guide” that explains traps and “the best” way to answer over 64 common questions. I don’t know who to attribute it to, but here it is: PDF from tri valley one-stop career center.

I made a short RPG Maker Visual Novel for Winter VN Jam

BE UNMADE, BEAST

FROM THE ASHES..

THE PHEONIX SHALL RISE

IT’S NOT ‘PEEKED’ MY INTEREST

OR ‘PEAKED’

BUT PIQUED

‘PIQUED MY INTEREST’

THIS HAS BEEN A CAPSLOCK PSA

THIS IS ACTUALLY REALLY USEFUL THANK YOU

ADDITIONALLY:

YOU ARE NOT ‘PHASED’. YOU ARE ‘FAZED.’

IF IT HAS BEEN A VERY LONG DAY, YOU ARE ‘WEARY’. IF SOMEONE IS ACTING IN A WAY THAT MAKES YOU SUSPICIOUS, YOU ARE ‘WARY’.

ALL IN ‘DUE’ TIME, NOT ‘DO’ TIME

‘PER SE’ NOT ‘PER SAY’

THANK YOU

BREATHE - THE VERB FORM IN PRESENT TENSE

YOU CANNOT “BALL” YOUR EYES OUT

THANK YOU.

IT’S ‘MIGHT AS WELL’. ‘MIND AS WELL’ DOES NOT MAKE GRAMMATICAL SENSE.

Me thinking that this is child’s play and that I know it all already:

Me realising there are some things I didn’t already know:

TO- GOING ONE PLACE TOWARDS ANOTHER

TWO- 2, A NUMBER BETWEEN 1 AND 3

TOO- A DESCRIPTIVE WORD, THE MUSIC IS TOO LOUD, THE SHIRT IS TOO LOOSE.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

I’m gonna add

ROGUE: CRIMINAL/REBEL/VAGRANT/ETC

ROUGE: RED MAKEUP

it’s rogues gallery, guys. Not rouge gallery. You’re making me think batman has an extensive lipstick collection.

If you’re talking about a weapons CACHE, it’s pronounced cash.

If you say cashay, that’s how CACHET is pronounced which means prestige and does not mean a collection of items stored together in a hidden/inaccessible place.

NO ONE IS ‘PREJUDICE"

PEOPLE ARE “PREJUDICED”

If he’s not moving, he’s STATIONARY.

If he’s a fucking space pencil, then carry on with STATIONERY.

If it’s wet precipitation falling out of the sky, it’s RAIN

If it’s someone ruling over people, it’s REIGN

If it’s holding back someone from (or getting someone to stop doing) something, that’s to REIN [them] IN (…as if you were using REINS on a horse)

(and oh yeah)

If you’re telling someone they’re going to have to reconsider an opinion or course of action, then they have ANOTHER THINK COMING

(because “another thing coming” makes no damn sense whatsoever unless they’re in some kind of monster movie, ffs)

And to add to the rein-y bit, it’s FREE REIN, not FREE REIGN.

It’s a horsemanship term, not a statesmanship term.

BARE = EXPOSED // TO EXPOSE

BEAR = TO CARRY

BEAR = SHITS IN THE WOODS

Words that are pronounced and spelled the same in the present tense but are conjugated differently:

Oh and this is the one I see ppl fuck up the most.

It is WREAK (to bring about) havoc (chaos), not “wreck” (destroy) havoc.

You can also wreak vengeance.

Those are the only two expressions people still use the word wreak for, I think.

Who else up jealous of Rungs capacity for expression
