Before I get into anything, BIG shout out to everyone at Walgreens who is participating in this week’s walkout/strike. It was getting bad when I left three years ago, and I’ve seen the company continue to drag its pharmacy staff through the dirt since. I’ve watched from the sidelines for while y’all tried to get this off the ground over the last few vaccine cycles. I’m so, so fucking proud of you. Shit needs to change.
I played some No Man’s Sky yesterday. Holy fuck, that inventory system cursor is fucking annoying. I managed to build my little shed with a stargate, and I made it to the off-planet space station. I’m enjoying it so far. It feels like a cross between Subnautica and Skyrim to me, but set in space. All the gathering and building of Subnautica, but set in an endless universe instead of an oceanic volcano crater. Shawshank accidentally started a dogfight with some sentinels, Top Gun style.
Thanksgiving went off without a hitch. Mostly. The turkey ended up on the floor during some post-oven transport. We were sent home with a container of leftovers for lunch this week. I also brought home some flannel sheets for pants, and another white set for backdrops or another attempt at my “holey ghost” photo shoot.
Today is Sloth Day. Shawshank will stuff us full of brunch, and we’ll spend the day on the couch, playing games.
