Wobbly One Of Myriads @wobblewuffess@awoo.space

Getting real tired of being the only person that cleans the kitchen, does dishes in addition to being /the person/ who cooks and provides the groceries..

My only work this sprint....

Break a bunch of stuff in pre-production environments and document how to fix it (secretly) in preparation for next sprint..
It which we are going to put engineering through simulated oncall and break shit without telling them.

CHAOS REIGNS!

Blah.. been having bunch of shoulder-bicep problems lately with my right shoulder (the one that was put back together 17 years ago.. worried I detached the bicep tendon again) my doctor ordered an x-ray but because of Covid numbers locally I haven't actually been able to go in to get it done.

So fucking tired of this shit.

@Draekos And yes.. raptorbot because she was an AGI who was almost always sleeved into a heavily modified Opteryx.

@Draekos Literally been there with EP1.

Had a character spend a week literally cobbling together a SLOTV from the shot up remains of a half dozen SLOTV, LLOTVs and suborbital transports on an exo-planet to get to one of it's larger moons. (In her defense, prior to the campaign she'd spent the last 5 years as a ship breaker in a scum swarm and had the skillset and tools to pull something like that off)

GM ran it as a skill challenge sort of deal.. and ended up with an 11, 2 and 99 over the course of the week.

So party and survivors all pile into this thing.. which she is the only person in the group with Piloting at all (in this case it was spacecraft and skimmers) so she has to fly it.

Launch goes okay and then a couple of km up the mains lose power and this very not aerodynamic brick starts to do what you can expect..

Queue screaming because there is nobody left on planet to run the resleeving facility in the wreckage of the base they just left.. and our poor raptor-bot ends up having to exit the the SLOTV while it is tumbling in atmosphere (on an earthlike planet no less) to make emergency repairs (and burn some Moxie) while spinning up a fork in her multi-tasker implant to fly the SLOTV while the rest of the party struggles with securing shit that came lose during a high-g spin and themselves.

She managed to make repairs, arrest the spin and get the SLOTV back under control but burned a ton of fuel in the process and fried most of the life support's batteries so the 3 biomorphs onboard have to suit up, have a whole scramble for life support resources and then blow the last of the onboard air as propellant for landing deceleration which is just enough for our crash to become a crash landing.

But for the rest of the campaign (ended up running for 2 years, this was in the first month) the party never lets her live down the fact that they ran out of life support and crashed on the moon (even if they survived and surviving the all of that is basically miraculous in itself).

It made for an extremely memorable series of scenes.. because we rolled for stuff that needed to happen to push the plot forward.

@lhos They showed up like 20 minutes ago, thankfully.

Update:

USPS delivered my meds today.

Love the tracking info reporting it delivered yesterday at a specific time.

@mawr Possibly.. fingers crossed.. pharmacy seems to think they'll show up today.

And the saga continues... according to Kaiser's Pharmacy department.. their tracking says it was not delivered yet and it is out for delivery between 1:30pm and 4:30pm today

I can't even report a problem or complain to the USPS because the package has a special service tag (I guess it has something to do with how KP mails them out). Only Kaiser can file a complaint about it. :/

For reference, in typical california fashion.. our mailbox is not at the street but literally next to our front door, bolted to the wall.

Fuck me.. for the second time in.. 5 years someone has stolen my fucking ADHD meds out of my mailbox. (First time was at a different address)

The thing is.. like.. I'm on off label modafinil and kaiser ships it in a very generic bag. The worst part is.. it was dropped off at 4:30, mail was checked at 5pm.

Annnnd "totally not in a covid wave" but there is a 2 hour wait time to talk to a pharmacy rep in the middle of the day on a Wed... fucking hell.

Like.. I vaguely feel shitty about this but.. seriously... DO NOT FUCKING STEAL MEDS FROM PEOPLE'S DOORS, MAILBOXES AND SHIT!

You aren't stealing from a big corp. You are causing a bunch of fucking trouble for someone and honestly.. dealing with shit like this.. is hard. It gives me a bunch of anxiety.. because I'm a fucking mess without my meds.

I don't like.. want to through shade at the post office.. but it feels really suspect that my meds disappeared the day my med was shipped and in a very short time between delivery and checking. Also none of the other mail or packages that arrived at the same time went missing.. including razors.

@mawr Fair! It just.. really strange for the bay area xD

@mawr Even with central AC... it's undersized for the volume of our current place.. and well.. there is literally no insulation. You can touch exterior face walls and they will be hot to the touch on days like today.... we couldn't keep it below ~27 in the living spaces..

I am very much looking forward to living somewhere cooler.

Also last week we had hot muggy rain.. like wtf.
