< wonders what your work involves? < is quickly running out of <'s excess student loan and will soon have to find <'s first job. < has been applying for teaching assistant roles which < is half excited for and half dreading...

Not to mention all the new fangames and other works that are popping up!
Looks cool! < has to admit that <'s never actually played any of the Rabbids games, so < might not be able to fully appreciate the additions. That showcase video did summon up some nostalgia though.
< used to tell people <'s work involved running simulations, designing devices, coordinating getting them made and packaged at subcons, getting them into the lab, and then either testing them myself or being present when they're being tested. But yeah, clearly < doesn't do that last bit anymore, and <'s enthusiasm for the rest of it suffers as a result. Really, < can sum up what < does as a lot of data analysis and documentation these days, plus ringing/texting people that < used to be able to walk over to. But there's still some excitement to be found!
< hadn't played the first Rabbids game for years, until the whole leaderboard thing came up and < went to work reverse-engineering it. < stopped playing after a few rounds of minigames because < had enough to figure out the code system, but this thing is giving some motivation to play again!
< is also genuinely looking forward to and simultaneously dreading Chris Pratt's Mario. No matter how hard < tries < can't imagine Mario with Chris Pratt's voice, and < can't imagine a possible voice Chris Pratt could affect that would fit Mario...
But <'s sure at the end of the day the movie will be good.
< wonders where ^ is holidaying?
< recently secured <'s first job as a teaching assistant at a local secondary school. < is half looking forward to it, half dreading it. Not too unlike <'s opinions on Chris Pratt's Mario in fact...
Ooh, exciting! < wonders what will come of it.
After reading the first Discworld book a few years ago now, < has finally picked up the second in the series. < loves Terry Pratchett's writing.
< read through <'s last few posts and realised < said < is "half excited for and half dreading" things three times in a row...
And < noticed < uses an awful lot of ellipses...
It's odd because < almost never uses ellipses in any other context than posts on this forum.
< wonders if you'll take into account that some use three dots while others use actual Unicode ellipses, and some use both depending on whether they're on phone or desktop!
