    Spent forever tracking down this form in our Sharepoint site. Realized I needed to install Sharepoint Designer. Did that. Located the form. Opened it for editing in InfoPath.

    Can't edit it, even after saving a local copy to my PC.

    I feel as if some heart should be going into OPs these days

    I mean after Jan 20th we don't know what chat will be the last, be it nuclear fire, morality police, or just simply a mandate to be russian language only, we should really embrace the artisinal craft while we have a chance

    My secret idea for a Chat OP is a Chat that briefly talks about Red Line, the shitty live action movie, and then spends about a page describing how this chat isn't about Red Line, the awesome anime racing movie.

    But that wasn't the question they were being asked. It was specifically, how do they as filmmakers avoid it. They're doing exactly what people want by being more ethnically and culturally sensitive and explaining how they got to that point, and getting shit on for it.

    do they want a gold star or what?

    you're supposed to do that shit because its the right thing to do, not so people will fellate you about how great you are at presenting not-completely-racist material


    also, that doesn't at all address the fundamental point about how myopic it is to have that discussion without anyone who isn't a greying white guy present

    Changing the OP's we produce out of a sudden fear it might be the last is a tacit admission that we've been holding back or coasting, and an expressed shame in that admission. Fuck that. Low energy [chat] til I die.

    @Feral I worked at my university's help desk and helped do AD password resets and install it on machines, as well as helping with a rollover to a more google focused system. Obviously not an expert or even really that experienced with it. I've done a lot of troubleshooting and geek squad work as a repair person in the back. Some sort of "manage the IT stuff for a site" job would be nice, especially as pertains to schools if applicable. I hear networking is a good way to start down that path but I don't know it very well either, other than hating troubleshooting my parents' network and installing dd-wrt on my own router.

    So, sometimes the Japan office sends us special requests that they can't handle because they don't have many English speakers. This is fine, and I generally enjoy this work as it deviates from our usual normal day-to-day stuff. Today, without going into too much detail, they sent us a list of websites that we need to look up and do verification points on.

    Some of these are porn sites.

    Japan, please. :bigfrown:

    @p10 I am sorry to hear that therapy is not being ideal. I understand your... frustration, though I think that CBT + psychotherapy tends to be better than CBT on its own. But either way, that sucks.

    Why are you worried about people noticing you not being a functional human in January specifically? I also know the lazy feeling, since that's something I try to fight all the time. It has combined with grad school in me to make ridiculously weird guilt trips I give myself for going home before I've been here ten hours. It's kind of an issue. Also, yes, news is depressing. I try to ignore it and also not think too hard.

    I think I'm finally on the path (re: grad school) where results start coming in, but it's kind of frustrating that it's come as a result of me basically telling my PI that I didn't want to work on what he wanted me to because it was going nowhere. He's so bad about failing projects. I'm still on several of them and I've just stopped giving any fucks, which is not ideal. I only care about what's going to get me out of here, and so when I have something that works for that, I work on it obsessively until I'm depressed from not seeing the sun at any point during the day. Grad school is not a time for work balance, but that also just leads to depression soooo

    Anyway I know that that's whatever it is, so I just try not to think of it too much, and also am somewhat detachedly amused when I realize how much the last couple of years have ground me up. I basically give no fucks about anything except getting out, which is... not normal for me, but at least amusing. Character growthy, even.

    My relationship is fine, we see each other every weekend and chat at least via voice most nights, I'm just being whiny that I'm going to be separated from her for a bit longer than usual because of Christmas. It's not really a major thing, just human bonding neurochemistry hitting like addiction. And yeah, we're moving in together when my lease is up in late July, so that's exciting, though also far and there is a lot of stressful stuff I could ruminate on re: changes.

    Oh god. 2 and a half hours of meetings. And not really low stress meetings.

    I am spent.

    But more work to be done.

    I hate this time of year. Most government folks are winding down. My area is on full steam for the next week. Just because of how everything works out.

    I guess for me it depends on what the point of that interview is.

    If it's just a general question of how they, as show runners, work to ensure that minorities and other cultural groups are represented well, then it's fine to have them as they are show runners.

    Of course the answer would be hire a talented and diverse cast and crew (and listen to them), so it'll be a really short panel.
