Aaaand generator ded.
 
I am immersed in darkness ^%@___@%

Ooooojeh, I forgot why muh foot feels a teeny bit sore still.
 
I stepped on a rusted nail poking thru a broken bit of fence board. It went thru the bottom of my shoe even, tho it only stuck into my foot a teeny bit. Disinfected it n’stuff, so it ok now.
 
still tho, Le N A I L ;___;

Reminds me of what ppl said about games like fallout too, where one thing the player can’t experience is the horrid stenches.
 
I mention this, because besides the roadside garbage not getting picked up (which, miraculously so far hasn’t been torn into by strays, vermin, & coyotes), there’s also a septic odor pervading all throughout the other side of the river, where all the supermarkets and restaurants are located…
 
wew, lad that can’t be gud for public health. ^%B)%
 
~~muv over covid, mother nature sez it’s medieval plamgue tiem~~

@Coriolanus  
hurricane: exists  
literally just normal southerners: welp, guess it’s the damn apocalypse now

Goddamn
 
The next, next street over has a small convenience store, where someone spray painted a penis along its sidewall. Likely the same person who played tictactoe on the facade of my neighbor’s house.
 
It like,
 
>Power’s gone  
>Muraled into walls, all the sudden:
 
XOO  
OXX  
OXO
 
8=D<—
 
It’s like the walls all became grade/high school textbooks over a few nights.
 
Ppl aren’t following traffic safety either lately. Not even stopping to active stoplights.
 
That must be why one outstate electrician/father of three kids was killed by a car.
 
Complete, effing, goddamn sociopaths. ^%<-<%

@Coriolanus  
Shorg wif a lizzo & catt  
shizzle
 
you gotta strip n you gotta keep someplace coooooooooooool  
fuuuuuuuuuug brb gonna go pick up shorg

The tidbit about the “business” side of the river being repaired over the “residential” side I’m on do kinda remind me of this innaways.  
(Tho a nuke’s certainly a whole different thing than a hurricane)
 
Tho I do see the “business” side is more important in the long term. There not many jobs keeping people here in this region. :P

I still have muh two books (for reading during daytime generator cool-off & gas conserving hours), tho since I was counting on having power back today (my local area is surrounded by lit streets and buildings now today, especially across the river on the “business” side, and my street is next to two of the region’s natural gas powerplants) I have to keep my fridge powered on to keep the perishable stuff I have fresh. (Most everything else powered by the generator is using the ample spare load; it burns the same amount of fuel regardless)
 
Muh sister was also supposed to arrive today with a bunch of pet food to feed the cat and lizard she left with me. She says now she’ll arrive Sunday.
 
Weather also says it’ll be extremely hot tomorrow, oboi… .___.

@Coriolanus  
ratt gonna make power you by running in one o’ them wheels for rodents
 
 
I get what you’re sayin’. Fuuuuuuuug  
Cut down on that power usage >.> use the candles n shiz  
How’re you on them books?

this no third-world hellhoel, I want me power bacc naooooooo D:<
 
No more effing non-perishables, or having to take cold showers with unclean water. Power shouldn’t be a luxury bought with expensive-as-fug gasoline. >:(
 
The neighboring streets are even getting tended to before mine, tho watching them they don’t seem to be doing anything. It’s like when you’re looking out the window while riding in a car, and you see ppl, but they’re all eerily frozen still in place like catatonic statues.

@Coriolanus  
You gotta be tha ooonnneee  
That shiz is wack. I’m sure things will be back soon, though. Maybe not today, maybe not even tomorrow, but soon, buddy.
 
A good amount of that sounds like stuff I could actually do. I wish I were over there >:/
 
Stay safe, buddy

No power today, gasoline for generator getting stretched thin.
 
Called power company on relavent matters, apparently no one else on my street did. Between this and having to find the fire department idly waiting in their homes to clear the roads, I’m getting reminded alot of how people in the region I live in are sheepishly polite to the point of their own detriment. (Or mabbeh they all think it’s “someone else’s” problem, even tho it affects every house on this street… .-.)
 
There’s a tree entangled in cables at one end of my street still obstructing tall vehicles, including garbage pickup; the streetsides are inundated with collected debris and about two weeks worth of bagged garbage.
 
Might make a call to the parish tomorrow as well to see about getting that wire-ridden tree removed (along with a few others further down the road). The dood who owns the property that mess is on just left his house a few days ago and hasn’t returned.
 
It’s like, everyone where I live expects someone else will make the phonecalls or handle the fucc-heuj trees topped over the roads and cable lines that everyone needs to use. >->

@Coriolanus  
engineer ratt en route  
ratte en route
 
It should be soon, buddy. Maybe a little later than expected, but soon.  
ratte ready for return of shorggle

Supposed to get power today. Yesterday I saw repair trucks go down the street but the stoobid “invest” storm’s rain and lightning made them have to hold off on fixing things, I think.
 
I swatigawd, if I don’t get power (with cable line internet access to muh compooter too) after all this time, imma be ver angery.
 
Might just suck it up and RP where & when I can on this clunky tablet I’m using, tho I’d reeeely prefer meh pc. (Touch-keypad be uncomfortably teenytiny, shitty battery, & wireless connection is poor atm)

Nyanta: Pilots!….Benko! T minus 30 seconds! I want all titans forming a defensive barrier as soon as we touch down!
 
Midnight you get hooked up with all of them when he slam down

@Cerebrate  
Nyanta: big ol cannons this I am excited to see! You get used to their thundering boom?

@Cerebrate  
(This is why ratt will always pet & snuggle the snek before it can be nommed)  
(I’ll work on the sheet when I get home)

@Cerebrate  
He’ll receive a notification- a futuristic equivalent of an email filled with different specs. “Anything from about two-thirds of these or more would be appreciated. If it’s too tall an order I can knock it down. Specifically, though, as long as it can think too fast and move quick, it should do the trick for a while.”
 
(On “thinking too fast”, she referencing something kinda like this tho if that’s not allow’d, that’s chill)

(i am kind awaiting on everyone, i am better at reacting than starting stuff.)

@Cerebrate  
(fug, I hope you haven’t been waiting on me __ good chance of it, ye)

@NyantaStarhunt  
Amy: “glad you think so, i’d never give up Sada for anything, or anyone. i hope you two will get along great.”
 
 
@EclecticInspiration  
he shows her the sea serpent body that had been prepped in her image, a few additional fins and microthrusters as well as… reduced padding(huehuehue) making it a natural hydrodynamic piece.
 
“any mods in specific i should add?”

@NyantaStarhunt  
“comes with being good enough to grow old in a place folks die young. so this is the new alliance eh?”
 
Chaser: “in a way, we get the matter of the Uruk settled and bring the forest prince over there to Matt.”
 
“hmhmm, and then it’ll be up to our esteemed leader and the little sprout to figure this out. alright then, we’ll get the cannons ready to move.”

@NyantaStarhunt  
Midnight: “impact imminent… we lucked out an empty side is gonna scrape the ground.”

@EclecticInspiration  
(so, going ahead with that or nah?)
