Wow. That's rough. You must be caring for your parents/relatives then?

Haha, no apologies necessary. Females are rare in the computer science realm. Innovative companies are taking a very different approach to hiring now where they don't care much about education and specifically look for traits that denote work ethic and creativity. Apparently even companies like Google are not happy with their "most PhD per capita" employees and are now hiring people who've never gone to college. They're now willing to train. I think it's a positive step forward and probably the most realistic way to climb out of the economic hole we're in. There's plenty of talent out there but it's wrapped up in poverty and minimum wage jobs.

Woah, DC to Atlanta? That's a long drive. Did you make it? What kind of job were you applying for? What do you do for work now?

Thanks. I'm already going through their HTML course and putting what I'm learning to work with a text editor I obtained. pirate I taught myself a little HTML when I was 13 (for my Neopets profile) so I know a lot of the tags and language already. I never got to learn the technical side of really understanding what they do or how they function so that's a big improvement.

It means the number 1 magical girl in my heart. heart

Anger doesn't intimidate me like it does some people when I understand where it's directed. I don't take it personally when someone gets mad at injustice no matter what my relationship is with who they're mad at. I'm pissed off at them too. My ego has no desire to come forth and some how makes any of that about me like how some white people get butthurt as soon as racism becomes the topic and have to create s**t like reverse racism to feel better about themselves. But when it comes to LGBTQ, I am queer and I love the community.

I took a test in a psychology class that revealed I have a male brain. Trust me, I didn't need that test to tell me and I'm no Nick Offerman (though sometimes I wish) but I stand some where near Eddie Izzard and I could really use his make-up tips. When I use to intentionally present as male when I was a teenager and go out to movies with friends, my friends would get asked what boy they went on a date with that night and I'd get some looks in the bathroom. But I must've been some nerdy perverted scholar who got really lucky in a past life because damn I love the female form and I'm not trading down even if I don't always recognize my own reflection sometimes. Every day is kind of like playing dress up. I don't get the full experience of being trans by a long shot because I decided I wasn't interested in transitioning but I do know what it feels like to have your brain and your body be completely unmatched.

Captcha: dark horse - Funny because I rocked a job interview today for a local technology company. The owner of the company asked me why I wasn't applying as a developer when I know barely any HTML for coding. I guarantee you he did not foresee a child sized woman who looks like Caroline Jones (complete with modern Morticia get-up and black painted nails) to sashay in to his office with a laptop and a power point presentation explaining how I fit in to his company on the first interview. I was also only given 27 hours of notification that I was even going to have an interview and I didn't even own a nice pair of shoes or any corporate goth clothing. I sold mine last year. Yeah, that was a hard hussle but it paid off majorly. Company access to expensive coding online courses and I'm not even an employee yet.

I agree with you about the LGBTQ community. I don't think a cishet person can entirely understand simply through way of personal experience. And keep being weary of cisgay people too. I don't think many of them entirely understand how trans community members feel either.

Keep kicking a** and taking names. I support you. And with that I have a special title for you: 一番魔法少女で私の心

Woolly might not be a bad way to describe me at the moment. Completely out of it. Three easy work days followed by busting my a** on the first job followed by a big, long, relaxing lunch. I can't cope.

Gaia wants my post to incorporate the phrase wild and woolly.

Yeah, that's generally been my expereince as well :/ I use the disabled toilets as much as possible, better than worrying about being scared or beaten... Bizarrely, sometimes its easier for me to use women's bathrooms, most don't notice I'm male as long as I keep my mouth shut, whereas guys either freak out, proposition me, or threaten me (and worse) once they realise I'm male...

No chance of you actually writing a story to go with your avatar description (as in from the Arena)? So want to read it gonk

I've been watching Next Generation on Netflix and there are way too many alien races whose only physical difference from humanity are ugly forehead creases or pig noses. It's kind of a joke, really. Considering how much of the gaming industry is hung up on high fantasy aesthetics, I'm surprised there aren't more mermaids in games. They'd fit right in.

"Mer-sea Killer" xd Now that you mention it, The Little Mermaid is just about the only fiction I can think of that centers on mer-people. Their depiction in Pirates was pretty cool too. I've always liked the murderous siren idea.

Pfft, what's that about? Send me a link to your entry and I'll uprate you. I would expect people to find a non-cosplay entry to be refreshing. xp
