Hi all,

What are directions I could go as a civil/geotechnical engineer where there would be less focus on work being quantified through billable hours?

I've got interest in code and data visualization. I love getting outside. I'm about 5 years into my career with a master's degree.

Any thoughts/opinions/experiences to share?

I don't even know if it's 'churning' yet until I've cancelled and gotten the bonus again in a few years.

But I had the 60k miles post to my united account and it felt like magic! Almost done with the spend on a second chase card and working to get my fiance his united card. It's been a frustrating application process because they made him go through some Identity checking procedures and he's been not very excited about the whole thing unlike me.

I can't wait to pull my dress out and try them together.

Also grateful that she purchased them for me <3

Now I need to not wear them for an entire year so I don't ruin them!!!

(Also, forgive my toe nails. My backcountry ski boots did not treat my toes well this past spring.)

I didn't think this would make me so happy but my sister and fiance were chatting in our family chat and he was talking about joining her to watch some violin videos on YouTube of her favorite violinist.

And she texted in there with my parents and him "Sis, marry this person! He's pretty cool."

And it means a lot to me that my little sister approves of my boo.

She was giving me some serious attitude. I decided I'd crack open the door even if it meant heating up the apartment a little. I assume she's come back in before actually getting heat stroke?

Why are they like this every time!

I miss this guy. I hope he's doing well and finally 100% healthy across the rainbow bridge.

(You can see his sniffles on his left side... Despite the multiple rounds of antibiotics we tried.)

I'm super excited for him and want to share it with at least one other person.

So far: Oh Baby and Cyanide are my favorites.

Now get back into bed hooman. You must go bring home the cilantro.

I'm aiming for one a day to get this corner of the internet started. But I looked up from scrolling on my phone and there's...

The One The Only THE BUN.

All hail the princess blossom butt.

They are just vegetarian cats after all.

She kneels down like this if I approach her face to take a photo. Such a little beggar.

An old photo of Blossom from during the bonding process of her and Teddy (RIP Teddy).

I'm excited. SO I HAVE TO SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS.

Landing as I do at the boundary of millenial and Gen Z... I've never been so impressed by the internet as I have stumbling across the Fediverse at this late stage.

Okay. I'm done. Time to subscribe to some communities... or start some if I can't find equivalents to my favorites!
