Yeah, my first thought was the advertisement probably didn’t include anything that was actually food.

Of course, the definition of food seems to keep changing as the decades pass by.

Donated and became a member for legal protection in a very red state.

I’ve grown differently from Satanism into other areas, but being able to produce a membership card for a legally recognized religion that isn’t Christian has its perks in some work places.

Mainly, the group is LITIGIOUS as fuck. They will go to court for a person’s employee rights. It wouldn’t be the first time.

I’ve never hit the end game goal.

After picking easier biomes to begin with, and a couple QOL mods, I’ve enjoyed every second.

Ever pissed off a turtle? Their bite hurts, even for the smaller ones.

As a born US citizen, yeah, our shit is fucked. Especially if the GOP stays in power. Back to the puritan days of Plymouth.

If my wife didn’t have such a fear of flying, we’d leave the country.

I use proton pass currently.

My life is changing in less than two weeks.

I have an enterprise grade server that I can’t run for a variety of home reasons.

When me and the wife… for lack of a better term, escape, our situation, I’ll be able to self host. I know its gonna be a struggle, I have things to learn, and that is why I’m so excited.

My first job was in a nursing home. I lasted three weeks.

First let me say, the place was horrible and the state shut it down a week after I left, so my experiences tend to the dramatic.

I’ve worked Medical IT for a long time and I have to say, even in IT, patient care is a priority.

I’ve told a president of the company they can go fuck themselves because a patient needed assistance. Thankfully, they saw my point (this was not the nursing home)

All that said, this nursing home was awful. I washed dishes. That was it. I didn’t have to bus trays, or any of it, it all got dumped on my sink and I washed it. I got paid minimum wage, and had difficulty with things like taking a state mandated lunch break. Yeah.

I got dishes back from both the lunch room and the guest rooms.

The stuff that came back from guest rooms haunted me.

We’re talking about a person who has lost the plot, so to speak, and is not sensible; stuffing mashed potatoes and napkins into a cup and it festered. I don’t mean like, it was room temperature and gross - thats whatever. The shit that came from their rooms was a biohazard.

Medical work is gross, and grueling, but at the end of the day, maybe you helped someone. I wasn’t clinical, but I spent enough time in patient rooms fixing stuff to get to know a few.

I didn’t cure their condition, but when a child wakes up screaming in a hospital bed, sometimes its just an IT guy who is there to calm them down, let them know their situation (as best you can, I don’t have their medical info) so they stop freaking and pulling out IVs and sensors and shit.

I know this type of information from an IT help desk job. Medical IT. Shit gets weird in hospitals.

Oh fuck me, I’m still studying to red team basic computing.

I take it you’ve never had to log into a printer with an AD account before?

Yeah, I went out to 32 characters once. Until I needed to work on a printer.

Yeah, as someone who doesn’t get paid to do security, but does it anyway because it is their passion…

Dad is on the right side of things. Hijacking a phone connection like that is fucking HARD. I’ve been studying hacking since Zork.

While spelling out your email and password phonetically is a pain, its fairly secure.

To pedants: I said fairly, no one under observation from a three letter agency should use this.

I’d like to report that the more specialized a medical doctor is, the less common sense they have.

Had a doctor chew me out because he couldn’t be bothered to simply turn the computer on.

That was the issue. Pushing a button was beneath him. Cool man, I’m the only one here at this hour and the phones have to be manned constantly. That ticket can go to another department and wait until they come in morning.

Also, low priority and I noted that the doctor refused to simply turn it on.

I think that ticket sat there for over a month.

Blatant fascism from the GOP nominee? Who would have guessed?

Yes, Trump is a problem. But the problem runs deeper.

If not Trump, another useful idiot.

Black Isle Studios.

Hands down, no contest.

If you’re looking for a name, Chris Avallone. Planescape: Torment and fucking New Vegas.

I only have one tattoo, and it is the Rune of Torment. That piece of art touched me.

As a Texan, in a purple area, this doesn’t surprise me from Oklahoma.

I had the displeasure of driving through OK to get to my late father in law’s hospital bed before he passed.

I ended up blowing through a toll entry because they didn’t accept paper money or cards. Just coins. I went to the little building to try to pay my way, and it appeared to be abandoned.

Mother fuckers, I can buy a legal variant of weed with my fucking watch. Coins? Join this century please.

My expectations of Bethesda, since Oblivion, has been as a mod platform.

Gimme a new engine with updated graphics and great mod support and let the community does what it does best.

Front Right: Keys, wireless earbuds, active nicotine packet container.

Front Left: Eckster Wallet, spare nicotine packet container, phone.

Back Right and Left: Utility Spots, used as needed.

Right Pocket Watch Pocket: CRKT CEO knife, if off the clock, THCa pen (legal in my area)

I don’t find myself “engaged,” I find myself wanting to spend money for something that will bore me the next week.

There is a reason I’ve mostly played single player games for the past decade.

I was tired of the “seasons” and micro transactions when I just wanted a story. If the story was good, I’d be ok with purchasing an expansion upon it. I remember my first expansion pack, Warcraft 2, played over a phone line. It felt worth it.

For more modern games, The Witcher 3 DLC felt like proper expansion packs. I have no bad feelings about those.

But just adding a few cosmetic items? Fuck off.

This does not apply to electronics. You want that 99% to leave as little moisture as possible.

After being told we would never, as a generation, be able to own a home - We bought a fucking new house.

Its currently still being built.
