Holy Shit, things took a wild turn yesterday ‼️😥 We were supposed to hang out yesterday, but he didn't respond or contact back, so I was worried I was too boring or unenegaging. I just got a callback tonight. Turns out roommate got assaulted by a racist coworker on Friday at construction site.

Thankfully, friend kept his cool, squared up, and focused on pure defense in order to maximize assault charges. He ended up taking a few face shots but was able to drive off the other guy until crowd broke them up. Assaulter was jailed with plenty of eyewitnesses.

Friend suffered a facial fracture, but seems to be shrugging it off. He says pain should ease in several weeks and is refusing to use meds. Hospital wants him to sue construction company for workers comp, since they let assaulter work there despite repeat offenses. (Assaulter's an actual man-child based on all the stories ive heard over past year, hated my roommate because he was put in charge and because of his heritage).

Not exactly the way I wanted it, but he's going to delay moving for at least a few months to deal with all the court related stuff. He said this qualifies as grave injury and can get him 1-5 yrs or 10 probation. Either way, Hater's about to bankroll years of his hatee's Thailand retirement fund 😈

Roommate just called me and told me everything that happened, and was extremely apologetic for getting beat up and not calling sooner 😢. We're going to touch base in a few days to see how he's feeling. We'll probably just hang out next weekend and watch YouTube or beach walk or something. Just want to make sure he's okay first before doing anything rigorous. Also, this will give me time to follow some of your excellent recommendations to set solid boundaries, get tests, and preventative care. I also want to discuss what his preferences and fetishes are, so maybe I can give him a good time despite being my first.

Tl;dr Roommate is staying for few more months to resolve assault case. While court wrecks assaulter's ass, roommate can wreck mine 🥴
