I was trying to explain that my name is pronounced "Cody" today and instead of just saying that, I said "The T is silent." My name is Coy, I guess?

I use a captioning app for therapy that also summarizes the conversation and today I talked about Dragon's Dogma 2, as one does in therapy. The summary: Speaker 1 had to throw their partner in the sea after they became sick with a virus. Speaker 1 feels badly about this.

I thought the best part about having a job again would be getting a paycheck again but it turns out the best part is not having to spend any time on LinkedIn.

Modeling your Pawn in Dragon's Dogma 2 after your significant other seems like a great idea until you realize they follow you around calling you "master" for dozens of hours.

Congratulations, friends, you made it to the last day of this dumpster fire turned landfill fire of a year. The year where all things unprecedented became precedented. You did it. Most important mission accomplished. I hope you can take some time to be proud of that.

I applied for a job at a nonprofit. They did not give me the job. They did not even give me an interview. But they took the liberty of signing me up for their mailing list and now they email to ask me for money every week. Bold choice.

This girl is stressing me out. She cracked a tooth but can't have regular dental procedures because of her heart. So if it needs to be surgically removed it'll have to be at the hospital which will be like $3000 which is problematic on account of me being laid off.

Friends! I'm looking for a couple people with deep knowledge of game and narrative content for the CoD and Persona franchises, from older to current releases, for the game trigger database project.

I'm working with some lovely people to create a content warning / trigger database for games in which people will be able to search by trigger or game. It's still very early stage and I'd love to launch it with as little bias as possible, so if you'd like to contribute, let me know!

I applied for a PM role at Xbox for Game Pass and if any of my Microsoft friends would like to tell the hiring manager what a marvel of a person I am, I'd be forever indebted 😅 Xbox has been THE career goal for me for a long time now.

My partner and I took our hijabi neighbors grocery shopping today so nobody would bother them & we were given baklava in return. There are lots of ways you can offer allyship and safety right now, being an escorts is a good one if your friends and neighbors are feeling unsafe

Took a new "I'm a nice boy, please hire me" photo for LinkedIn and I think I do indeed look like a nice boy worthy of being hired.
