Finished a short horror tale yesterday. Is there a spot on lemmy that would get it read and criticized?
She had interviewed and met both remotely and in person, this guy was merely an HR drone confirming her documentation. I was a little bent when she told me he had asked her to remove her blur filter "to have a look at her working environment, make sure it's not cluttered" (something along those lines). No one else at this company requested such. Was he way out of line?
I should note, this is my PC in our living room and not where she will be working from. And this guy wants a look around our home?! Told my wife to bring this up once she's settled in, ask HR if this is policy. She started today!
She thinks it's a racism thing. I'm not so sure, but I don't have any other explanation.
Where do I begin to even see if I'm interested?
I'm wanting something to run around the hood and offroad, mostly in deep sand. An electric version of this: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/coleman-mini-bike-bt200x-g
What else do I need to be concerned about?

Got a couple of acres in a NW Florida swamp. Been hearing Barred Owls for years.
How do I spot one? And tricks other than sitting still and being quiet? They seem to come pretty close. Can I "bait" them somehow with a box or something they would like to visit?
Funny story: First night I camped, three were doing their call/response thing. Every time they called, closer, and closer. Freaky sounding, one of the calls sounds almost like a child crying out.
For some reason, my idiot self thought coyotes were closing in. (Yes, I know well what coyotes sound like.)
Got a little freaked, grabbed my .410 (tiny shotgun) and decided to take the fight to them, scare 'em off (didn't want them rooting around my site). Again, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, promptly got lost.
Got home, "Hey Google! What do coyotes sound like?" Oh FFS. I am not a clever man.
Saw a Pileated Woodpecker the other day though! Super cool and way bigger than I thought.
Probably just not feasible, but I have many pistols and the 1911 is what I'm best at. I carry an LCP MAX and some other .380s, but I'm not so hot with those. Also have a slightly larger Ruger 9MM that works great. Just about can't miss with the Colt Government Model.
I suppose the answer is to practice, practice, practice with the smaller guns?
