    When my big idiot was a baby and there were pantry moths everywhere in my new apartment I would pick her up when I saw a moth and lift her to it. At the same time I did a particular whistle. Always the same.

    Now when I do the whistle she’ll come running over looking to kill.

    I would love to see one of those sankey diagrams about job applications except it’s some dude walking into local businesses everyday to do the firm handshake and insist that he would be the greatest employee they will ever have.

    And then, because I am a scientist, repeat the experiment with the same dude but dressed like a slob, with a woman, same lady except dressed like a slob, etc

    And then do a small paper on the sociology of the interactions and how hiring managers innate biases might impact getting hired.

    A while back I was playing a Blades in the Dark campaign. I made my usual sword lady but wanted to add a bit of an odd spin on it so I delved into the optional bits of the book and got approval from the GM to have a character beholden to the tentacle god.

    The campaign ended just as I became and adept, so I never got to unleash tentacled horrors on posh urbanites :(
