#it is infuriating

[bookishbrigitta]

Client just emailed very concerned that "her version" of the slide deck we'd helped her update to our new (actually readable, standards-having) style suddenly "looked different" and she had been under the impression that when she shares a file via OneDrive, it sends a separate copy (but doesn't change the name, apparently) and leaves the original on the sender's desktop.

Uh, that is anathema to the whole point of OneDrive. Which we've been using as an organization for 5 years (she's been here longer than I have). We have no desktop file storage; it is all in OneDrive. Our org's standard operating procedure is to not share separate files/copies, but to share a OneDrive link for live editing.

If you wanted to keep a copy separate, you needed to either have made a copy of the original and send it to us, clearly labeled, OR have made a copy and kept it for yourself. IT has 2 resource pages, a self-paced learning module, monthly webinars, and a help chat available for OneDrive.

Luckily, we have versioning! But, ma'am. If you didn't want to share the new slide deck yet, why did you put us on a super tight deadline???

Character regression is not really liking Vere and then one fine morning you wake up and realize you have crush on him.

unstable plasma take but. this book has its good points, especially on a conceptual level. Lestat using Quin and Mona to play dolls house trying to game his way through a scenario where he got it right with Claudia and Louis is actually so fun and good. what if he hadn't made Louis at all? what if someone else made Louis, and that someone (not Lestat) hurt him terribly so Lestat could just waltz in and pick up the pieces, and be heroic and magnificent? and what if Claudia had been dying for a long time through no fault of Louis'? what if she knew enough to ask to be a vampire, so when he killed her it was wrong, but not that wrong. And what if making the girl a vampire wasn't trapping someone you care for closer, but setting him free with a perfect companion. She's older, of course. She won't be trapped either. And you loved them both, and they loved you, and admired you and thought you were wonderful. Also one of them was raised by a really milfy cousin who you want to take you apart and study you like a bug. and her husband is also hot. but not as hot as you. but he looks a lot older than you and has very broad shoulders and they both also kill people. what then???? would the emptiness subside? Unfortunately signs point to no.

tell me he is not pointedly avoiding thinking about Claudia the whole time.

It's been 2 articles from industry magazines about FITFWT that praise the tour and the people behind the scenes (who all have high praises for Louis), yet there hasn't been any coverage of the tour itself as a major music event where we get to hear Louis talk about his vision and his work as an artist. In case you were wondering.

i hate online book communities because the convo is either just about the romance in the book or some other stupid analysis
