What about MP and Spacedaisy? Will they be gone? Is one of them staying? Both? They should both stay.

I know for a fact Daisy is staying. I haven't talked to Alex about that but it's hard to believe he would leave. I agree they should both stay.

#4053

To the best of my knowledge Alex is staying. But I can’t say that with 100% confidence because I’m not him and I don’t know what his plans are. I am definitely staying. We both love this community and will not let our personal issues manifest in The Syndicate. No one will be asked to choose between us or anything. So fret not, neither of us is being forced out.

#4054

I apologize that I have been absent in the midst of this. Sometimes you have to be able to step back and take care of your own emotional well being. I am now in Waco with my sister, and in the next couple weeks you will start to see me here more consistently.

#4055

ya'll take all the time you need. your wellbeing is certainly the priority and this website isn't going anywhere.

#4056

No, take only a bit of time, and get your butt back here for A World Asunder!

#4057

Well Daisy, you once told me to make a Greater Idea run for whenever you started playing mafia again.

The game is there in the Basement, waiting for when you are ready to come back!

#4058

Oooo that sounds fun.

#4059

I’m waiting to get a CT scan.

If I knew what was amiss, then I wouldn’t need the CT scan.

Actually, I meant is it your head, your lungs, digestive system, legs, etc. but thats probably TMI. I hope they don't find anything or they find something small that can be treated easily.

Ongoing abdominal weirdness from almost a year ago. The contrast dye I’ve been nursing over the last 100 minutes tastes like poorly-prepared lemonade, which is better than I expected. They still have to put an IV in my arm yet, so we’ll see how that goes.

#4065

-> abdominal weirdness.

Sounds familiar. I had something like that in 2015.

I did a bunch of exams and found nothing. Then I did a blood test and found I was gluten-intolerant.

6 months and a gluten-free diet later, I go to another doctor, who looks at the original blood test and says "wait, only one of the two indicators for gluten is showing a positive result, this could be wrong". He asks for another test and this time I get a negative on both indicators. Went to eat a pizza in the same week.

The belly pain disappears a few months later on its own. Turns out it was a mix of genetics (my father's side has very sensible stomachs) and anxiety from not getting an internship in college.

I have a newfound respect for people who can't eat gluten, though. It sucks.

#4066

Stomach pains from anxiety is something I've lived with for the past 15 years. Not fun. I would prefer to just stop eating gluten

#4067

They're making more and more gluten-free food products recently, but a few years ago there was nothing that didn't taste like soggy cardboard

Did I just say something embarassing without noticing

#4070

Actually it should be sensitive not sensible (damn false cognates). Otherwise I'm lost.

Yeah, I figured you meant sensitive... "sensible stomachs" made me laugh. I'd like to have a sensible stomach... mine likes cookies too much.

#4072

Hah I didn't even catch that typo.

"Yes, quite so my dear Earl of Tummy. Shall we away to the veranda?"

^ Hmm don't think Mr. Gallbladder is responsible for burps.

Hey, I walked without a cane today which was a major breakthrough. My physical therapist is torturing me though to get me to bend my knee at a sharper angle (meaning he forces my knee to the sharpest angle he can get by pushing my heel toward my hamstrings while I'm lying on my back). Passed my one year anniversary of the break back in October. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Divided further down the road to 'after after'?

Life is a three-act play but you have to choose your own act breaks

I'm also thankful that your knee has improved and you didn't end up needing a knee replacement <3 well done, jules.

Well I was walking out of Old Navy with a new pair of pants when I saw the firefighters dousing my car. Everything under the hood was a pile of ash, windshield shattered and melted. no idea what caused it, the car was parked and turned off

#4093

What kind of car was it?

#4094

A 2007 Hyundai Elantra.

This is an article from last month about random Hyundais (and Kias) catching on fire. This is apparently a "thing" that has been happening.

Holy shit...

#4097

Yeah, if you Google "Hyundais on fire" you will get quite a few results. You would think if there was a problem the manufacturer can isolate that they would have done something by now, so if I were you, I would do some deeper research on this, see if they have found anything., and keep following it.

Is there any kind of insurance payout for "random blaze" in your state?

#4098

Thats just wild - why would a car catch on fire?

#4099

Someone said that "he had a bot watch over 1,000 hours of Hallmark Christmas movies and write its own Christmas movie."

I don't know to what extent this is true, but the script is gold.
