Challenge #03784-J131: Learn or...

CEO -- "It's not FAIR!"

"It's that or you go to prison"

CEO -- "Then how in the name of hell am I supposed to control them this way?"

"You could always try being fair and giving them what you promised."

CEO -- "THAT is blackmail!"

"You have your two choices, so choose."

The CEO is ordered by the CRC to either have all of their interactions live-streamed 24 / 7, including board room meetings, work in the office, and so forth, along with auditors working at all hours to make sure CRC law is upheld. Though they do get privacy for sleep and for using the washroom. -- Anon Guest

Control. Manipulation. Deceit. These were the key ingredients to success. And the namby-pamby Galactic Alliance insisted that they were also criminal. Dungal Baebiana thought that they would at least allow some accommodations because he called them in.

He never expected to be treated like a criminal. Having his assets seized and put under new management as they trained him in their ways.

"This is no way to control a workforce," he complained. "I asked you to help me, not to lock me up."

Thursday, Game Night and Dunwannas

The mood is "flop around and whine about everything" today. I took an abundance of time to haul myself out of a nice comfy bed.

I'm feeling "heavy" today and that generally means that I'm having a stealth asthma attack and can't get enough oxygen. Usually, the humidifier is a good option for making that go away.

If that fails, it's up the meds and hope for the best.

Or I figure out where the hair up my butt is and work

Challenge #03783-J130: We Lucky Crew

I'm a Lucker. I had the fantastic idea of only hiring other Luckers to crew my ship, so we could hunt pirates and collect the bounties on them. We're all Luckers, bad news for Pirates. But man, this is getting boring! -- DaniAndShali

Testing your luck isn't fun when you know it's certain. It's even less fun when there's like fifty people exactly like you manning a ship.

It's just... too easy.

No challenge. We're the luckiest bunch of bounty hunters in

Wednesday, Wordpress, Date Night, and Movie Day

Taking Mayhem out to see the D&D movie. So the usual offerings will be later than normal.

I can hope to get the Wordpress out.

It takes me longer to write a whole story from prompt than it does to copy/pasta stuff.

Updates if necessary, much later. We're going to have some fun rn.

...I also have no idea what we're doing for Date Night, but I am for sure paying for it.

Challenge #03782-J129: They Do That For Fun

Humans scare the hell out of the others around them playing a Dungeons and Dragons tabletop game. -- Anon Guest

"Fireball. Just fireball. Only fireball," recited Human Lars. Ze was doing a funny voice.

"I'll take 'memes from the dawn of time' for five hundred, Alex," quipped Human Oish. He was evidently playing with several oddly-shaped solid objects.

"Just flakkin' roll an attack," sighed Human George. Ze had hir head on the table. "I wanna get something flakkin' DONE this sesh. Powers

Tuesday PLNs

I'm doing a support run for MeMum today, so my PLNs are thus:

  • Coffee, soup, and meds (in progress
  • This blog (doy)
  • Nick off across the countryside
  • Help MeMum with thing at place
  • Back home and do all the offerings

Yay.

I'm bringing the iPad with me for incidental inspirations and the hope that I hit literary zoomies at some point.

Chapter count: still crawling along in chapter 272

All right. I must kiss my Beloved and toddle offski.

Challenge #03781-J128: Crickey, What a Beauty

A planet is found to be a near duplicate of the nation on Earth known as Australia. Its indigenous plants and wildlife are nearly duplicate of that nation, except here, animals that humans drove into extinction still live. Convergent evolution at its finest. The N'Ozzies LOVE it! -- Anon Guest

If there were any further proof needed that Humans are "space orcs" as they put it, they usually look no further than N'Oz. A planet terraformed to be a copy of the

Monday, Tale Foundry Reads

I am on call to read for a friend, so that's going to take up most of the day.

Tomorrow, I go do a Tech Day for MeMum, and the day after that, I'm taking Mayhem to see the D&D movie.

I expect not a lot to get done behind the curtain this week.

Chapter count: Made a start into Chapter 272

We're out of moneys for the meanwhile, so now we're using my cash reserves for frivolous things like.

Sunday, Streams and Dubious PLNs

Beloved and I were going to go out and acquire activewear that was relatively winter-proof.

Alas, we have run out of moneys. Or rather, Beloved has run out of moneys. So I shall be using my cash funds to do anything until payday.

So I might have to limit myself to just the leggings for the meanwhile.

I do not wish for my knees to freeze.

On the positive side, I now have enough Keto-snacks to keep me happy for quite some

Challenge #03779-J126: Just One Little Snag

The human, expending almost the last of their energy, gets the cave set up so they, and their Havenworlder crew, manages to have at least basic food/water/shelter until help arrives, then collapses. Now it is up to the Havenworlders to keep their friend alive, for they have a massive and dangerous concussion, with only the most basic of basic equipment left. Until help shows. -- Anon Guest

Companion Xuan dug his claws into the soft fabric of Human Nol's work

Saturday, Parkrun & Hairdo's

Started the day at 5AM, getting the whole self-maintenance regime done and going to parkrun of course.

Managed the 5K in under an hour, and then it was off to-- SHENANIGANS!

Helping KIABIL get some parcels. Going with Friendo Awesome to get all our hair did. With meals between destinations.

I am a very tired bean because I haven't had my post-walk nap.

Nevertheless, I must to get the daily offerings done. At which point I shall be free to messing around

Challenge #03778-J125: Listen to the Echoes

The definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over again, and expect a different result. Dereggers have that layer of insanity down in spades. These dereggers keep trying to find out why dereg empires keep falling. And then absolutely refuse to accept the results. -- Anon Guest

[AN: Because doubling down on bad decisions and ignoring replicable data is what that side of the political spectrum does best]

"Obviously our brothers in righteousness allowed themselves to become soft

Friday, Unwanted Shenanigans

I dunwanna go fetch the parcel that just arrived via the post.
I dunwanna go fetch olives so I can make The Bikkie with olives like I like it.

Because going out means getting dressed, which means getting out of my comfy clothes and into less comfy clothes and going to place and doing thing.

...ugh.

I barely wanna do my daily tale and meme combo today. I wanna stay at home

Challenge #03777-J124: Promises, Promises

You helped me when I needed it most. You may be a killer, but if you ever loose strength, to where you think you can't go on, I will be there for you. If you cannot walk, I will be your legs. This I promise you. -- Anon Guest

They were all poor, weak, and struggling masses yearning to break free. The typical Deregger escapees. The fact that their pilot was a jump-and-dump mass murderer for profit, and the fact that she
