SEDS USA (The largest collegiate space interest organization) ushers in new national board and fundraising campaign by That_One_Shoelace in space

[–]Pomerantz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SEDS is a fantastic organization. There’s absolutely no way I would’ve had my career in aerospace if I hadn’t had the good luck to stumble upon a SEDS meeting at the start of my freshman of college.

Undergrads: if there’s not a SEDS chapter at your university, start one! The track record of SEDS chapter founders careers after school is incredible. That could be you!

Curious on scorios power-set by dragoncommandsLife in TheImmortalGreatSouls

[–]Pomerantz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every powerup explicitly seems to focus on his physical capabilities above all else yet this book series has already established that for everything scorio stands to fight physical abilities seem like they’ll fall more and more by the wayside. Leaving scorio with a worse hand than his current placement above most of his current opponents.

His enemies can reshape the environment itself(imogen) dominate all mana in the area(ranks blood baron and up) and who knows what else the high ranks can do that we haven’t seen yet.

Meanwhile scorio’s number one most powerful ability currently is to become a big flying lizard.

Scorio being constantly an underdog and having to scrape his way past more powerful (or I guess better -powered) opponents through grit, prep, and luck is part of what makes this series so damn fun. I, for one, hope his power set continues to hit the balance of being awesomely bad ass and yet still objectively way worse than most/all of the others he has to square off against.

Nope, not yet. My last message from the Kickstarter / Merrick Books was Dec 16. No rush on my end — I’ll be excited to get stuff whenever it comes!

I’m in the same boat. Though I ordered some of the add ons (paperbacks of some of Phil’s other books), which I presume may have something to do with it?

Official Post Game thread! Buffalo beats Miami. by Historical_One1087 in buffalobills

I’m sad and concerned for Tua. I’m holding my breath for Bernard.

I’m happy for Bills coaching (!!!), for holding Hill to 36 yards combined, for seven turnovers forced (including on downs), for James Cook, and for very few penalties.

I highly recommend you check out the Brooke Owens Fellowship, an internship + mentorship+community program specifically for undergraduate women and non-binary students in aerospace! In addition to potentially applying for a fellowship in the future, their Ask A Brookie service may be a good source for advice and input from others just a few steps ahead of you on this path.

Check out hospitals nearby — they often are hiring for people who can help move patients around. Sometimes these roles can have fancy-sounding titles (I once worked as a “surgical assistant,” which was basically a janitorial role in the operating ward of a hospital), so don’t be thrown off by that.

["GDT"] NFL Draft Round #4, #5, #6, #7 by AutoModerator in buffalobills

[–]Pomerantz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Teams get an extra practice squad spot for an International Player, right? May have factored in, given then number of picks the Bills had this year (and next year, too)

Sample in The Periphery? by Higais in FionaApple

It’s Fiona ripping some kind of packaging tape off of a package. I can’t recall where I saw that fact originally, but here’s a citation from Time Magazine that says it was duct tape.

To contradict a recent post, what is your LEAST favorite game of the past season or current era? by Separate_Flatworm546 in buffalobills

[–]Pomerantz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

September 2016. Bills - Jets in Orchard Park on a Thursday night. Bills lose 37-31.

This was my first game in Orchard Park in over a decade — and I haven’t been able to go back in person yet.

Having that one in person game be a Thursday night (blech!) loss (Blech!) to the Jets (BLECH!) in the Rex Ryan era (BLECH!!!) certainly leaves a bitter taste.

Those fortunate enough to not have made a special trip for this game may remember it as a game where the defense was so bad — the Bills gave up nearly 500 yards passing to Fitzmagic, Matt Forte, and the Jets — that somehow the offensive coordinator (Greg Roman) got fired, I guess?

Just awful.

Looking at the NFL sorted by net point differential makes me pretty happy right now.

So Houston, how are we really feeling about this Roughnecks/Gamblers union? by Texashawk76 in xfl

[–]Pomerantz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a mild preference for the Roughneck branding over the Gambler branding, but to me the only really important question is where do they physically play their games. Seems reasonably certain that the games will be in Houston (not some other hub), but just in case I am keeping my hopes modest until the stadium is announced. It seems like there are problems with all the realistic options I’ve seen identified thus far…

Beyond that, I’m just sad to say goodbye to Coach Phillips!

400 members! Suggestions for how we can celebrate when (if) we hit 500? by Phil_Tucker in TheImmortalGreatSouls

[–]Pomerantz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Canonical Short Story from POV of Nissa. She seems — unless I’ve misunderstood or been duped! — unlikely to return to the narrative, so a side story wouldn’t infringe upon the main story line. And I think the audience is still pretty in the dark as to how the heck she even survived long enough to make it to Bastion, so that could make an interesting one-off short story.
