Amber is the color of my energy

Post by az_vede » Wed Aug 05, 2020 7:40 am

Hi all,

I'm Amber... happened upon the comic a few times back in the day (dear lord that was way longer ago than I'm comfortable recalling).... saw the recent series linked on a freenode IRC channel a few days after recognizing my dysphoria for what it was and have been binging through the backlog because webcomics are a great thing that I've missed.

Decided forums would be worth joining because how can I not Join forums where the head mod is Martin Blank?!

Y'all're handsome devils, what're your names?

Having never seen the film it was years before I first realised his name wasn't actually Martin. :P

I still refuse to believe it.

Welcome, Amber. Hope you have fun here. I read your topic title with a bit of a Donovan melody in my head, which can never be a bad thing.

Welcome Amber!

There's several of us that had very similar reactions to the Epiphany storyline.
When all is said and done, more is generally said than is done.
Ask me anything - no, really - but be warned: I will answer. If you didn't want to know... don't ask.

Which cert?
If I show up at your door, chances are you did something to bring me there.

I think you made the better choice.

it was a solid choice, but my DGAF levels at work in my current job are reaching dangerous levels.... my filter about upper management's policy of chasing it's own tail with pet projects while clients walk out the door.... well I'm growing rather outspoken in a way that may start to represent a threat to my continued employment there (exacerbated by declining revenue from said clients walking out the door).
