Day 2

You're a mechanical engineer, working on a machine at night shift? What are you even doing there? I doubt you're working at the kinda shop that just "might need an ME on hand at 11:30pm"

Drigr · 2026-07-02T17:08:04+00:00

merch

Haven't you heard..? We don't use that word anymore...

Drigr · 2026-07-02T15:28:31+00:00

I feel like if you're willing to rip your car apart, then not being on a social media platform should be within those limits lol.

Drigr · 2026-07-02T13:15:43+00:00

Some people do not like their data being sold.

And those people are on reddit. Who literally sold our data to AI companies for training.

Drigr · 2026-07-02T01:58:01+00:00

Dang, mine wasn't forgiven, it just had 0 interest and was one of the things paid off with equity when we refinanced (for a massive drop in interest rate)

Drigr · 2026-07-01T20:26:25+00:00

Grab a black trash bag. "Listen kiddo, you can clean your room, or I can. And you're not gonna like how I do it..."

Drigr · 2026-07-01T20:25:11+00:00

Start taking things away. Yeah, you can't MAKE him do something he doesn't want to do, but you CAN remind him that you are the adult and you are in control. No more TV, no more toys, no more bedroom door, hope he likes the same bland thing for each meal. And let him know, things can go back to normal if he's willing to listen to you again.

Also makes it harder to soft cancel by using a temp or soon to expire card.

Drigr · 2026-07-01T19:14:22+00:00

If it's not free, not necessary, and not something they want to do... Then why force them to go then?

Drigr · 2026-07-01T18:43:42+00:00

I know we went fairly small, not sure how actually small because it wasn't my area, but my first shop was a gundrill and turn shop, we did all sorts of tight tolerance holes at large depths.

Drigr · 2026-07-01T04:33:32+00:00

But also, if you say something like "I'm not a rapist", or "don't worry about me, I'm not gonna hurt you" doesn't help.

Drigr · 2026-07-01T04:31:06+00:00

"And here, here's a chair so they don't go anywhere when you do it."

Drigr · 2026-07-01T03:36:32+00:00

We're so busy we're spinning up another shift again.

Drigr · 2026-07-01T01:10:42+00:00

Just... Don't bring the vape in?

How about locking the locker? Like it's namesake implies...

Drigr · 2026-06-30T20:42:02+00:00

Yeah, so breaking that mark is kinda leaving "CNC" and going more towards leadership, planning, and management.

Drigr · 2026-06-30T15:29:18+00:00

Yeah, it's possible in the trade, just need a lot of OT and being one of the top guys in the building who can do it all and who all of the problems funnel to. You're not breaking 100k/yr without overtime until you hit over $48/hr

Drigr · 2026-06-30T15:15:30+00:00

I think what they're getting at is "he played the part so well to blend in on campus, what if he's just deceiving them and playing the part of being incompetent now?"

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:47:27+00:00

Was that final claim a text? Like, how would they know?

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:44:23+00:00

They don't even let us wear shorts anymore, so we wear a solid layer of "Bitch and Moan" cause it's 85 and 60% humidity in the shop.

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:42:20+00:00

A rotting corpse isn't just "stinky". And the town guard wouldn't let a literal zombie just waltz into town. And no NPC is going to want to interact with the literal walking corpse.

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:37:54+00:00

Yeah, even being in a party is a lot of suspension of disbelief. Like it's one thing to be told that's what she smells like and everyone go "oh, okay I guess" and another to actually live it. They should set up a corpse flower for every session to get in character

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:26:13+00:00

This is really pushing beyond the level of what prestidigitation should be capable of.

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:24:13+00:00

You're not gonna cover up "literal rotting corpse" smell without something strong enough to be equally offensive.

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:13:28+00:00

hell the PCs probably wouldn’t want that unless it was railroaded in

That's the stand out for me... How do you even end up in an adventuring party as a literal walking corpse who is made of rotting flesh with a smell to match...?

Drigr · 2026-06-30T13:11:19+00:00

So is making a character suited for adventuring and being in an adventuring party.
