03:43 * Filly_Nightmares snugglies into Cepheid

03:46 <Cepheid> If anything, I feel really hungry now.

03:47 <Cepheid> And cold.  I'm shivering.

03:48 <RazorSharpFang> Well. Better take care of that.

03:49 * Filly_Nightmares yawnskrees

03:50 <Cepheid> Hunger can be taken care of by food.  Cold by warm food and blankets.  I'll solve the first and part of the second problem with the spaghetti sauce my dad made.  Heat some up, eat with bread.

03:53 * Ali cuddles on Cepheid?

03:55 * Cepheid absorbs the heat from Ali

03:57 * Cepheid takes some boiling hot water, adds the juice of half a lemon to it, and then a block of chiseled-out honey and mixes it all together.

04:01 <Cepheid> Heh, that cat.

04:01 <Cepheid> When I'm in the kitchen, I'm able to get him to come up to me so I can pet him.  Clearly I was too close to the living room.  He didn't budge, so I approached him to pet him.  He immediately turns around and runs off to The Spot in the living room.

04:01 <Cepheid> He wanted petting, but of a much rougher variety.

04:05 <Cepheid> Hi, my name is Cepheid, and I have Gaming Disorder.  *Gets shot by random gamer in the distance*

04:10 * Ali cries about that

04:11 <Cepheid> It's technically supposed to be a disorder that characterizes self-destructive behaviour influenced by an addiction to games.

04:11 <Cepheid> For example, not eating food, drinking water, taking showers over excessively long(>1 day) periods repeatedly.

04:12 <Cepheid> It is a legitimate issue.  People have died because they were so focused on a game.

04:13 <Cepheid> Either because they refused to deal with basic physical needs for health, or because they opted to avoid sleep by consuming dangerous levels of caffiene.  Among others.

04:13 <Cepheid> That said, the label of the disorder is...  discouraging.

04:14 <Cepheid> A more accurate label might be "self-destructive game addiction."

04:14 * Ali will just add another discouraging tag to her so that more will hate her.

04:16 <Cepheid> Oh for the love of-

04:16 <Cepheid> Ali, my advice at the moment?  Go see a counselor or something.  Talk about whatever bugs you, no matter how insignificant.  You'd be amazed at what it can do for your self-confidence and personal image view.

04:17 <Cepheid> I'm only advising this because that's what I've been doing for the last two months now, and I feel considerably better than I did three months ago when I thought I was useless and wanted to do certain things.

04:17 *** Joins: The_Nostalgia_Mare (Nossy@Pony-o73sar.fl.comcast.net)

04:18 <Cepheid> I actually went on for 30 minutes to my counselor about how a small sound that Simba made on his deathbed FOUR YEARS AGO still bothered me to this day.  And because I vented about it, I don't feel as bad it anymore.

04:20 <Cepheid> It's one of those weird things that I can't understand why it's so different to talk to a person face-to-face as opposed to online.

04:24 <PinkieShy> having to troubleshoot linux lol

04:29 <Saerydoth> gaming disorder...and yet noone says anything about couch potatoes that do nothing but watch football and get into physical fights with people that don't support their team :P

04:29 <Cepheid> That's just called laziness.

04:30 <Saerydoth> I don't believe in "gaming disorder", it's just another scapegoat

04:30 <KooK> yawnage

04:30 <Saerydoth> yes, people can get addicted to things

04:30 <Saerydoth> if they didn't have games they'd just be addicted to something else

04:30 <Saerydoth> games are not the problem

04:30 <Cepheid> True.  They're more indicative of something deeper.

04:30 <Saerydoth> yep

04:30 <Cepheid> Most of these behaviours can be attributed to a compulsive disorder.

04:30 <Saerydoth> if not for games, they'd be off gambling

04:31 <Saerydoth> obsessive compulsive disorder is real

04:31 <Saerydoth> but it has nothing to do with gaming

04:31 <Cepheid> I wasn't sure if OCD qualified in this case.

04:31 <Cepheid> That's why I mentioned "a compulsive disorder."  There are a few compulsive disorders.

04:31 <Saerydoth> it's just that SOME of them use gaming as an outlet.  If htey didn't have gaming they'd be doing something else

04:31 <Saerydoth> like gambling

04:31 <Cepheid> Which ones would lead a person to forgo any common sense about taking care of themselves, I don't know.

04:32 <Cepheid> You do realize you're kind of ranting about something, and I agreed with you earlier, right? :P

04:32 <Saerydoth> true, guess I'm preaching to the choir huh :P

04:32 <Cepheid> Stop being so compulsive.

04:32 <Cepheid> Myself, I just didn't think to consider the symptoms as a sign of another disorder that actually does exist.

04:32 * Saerydoth nods

04:33 <Saerydoth> but gaming isn't any more dangerous than...watching TV, or reading books

04:33 <Cepheid> The other issue is whether or not a person actually suffers a compulsive disorder, or is just insane.

04:33 <Cepheid> Like that raiding group that tried to take down that one FFXI boss.

04:33 <Saerydoth> if someone has a compulsive disorder they have a compulsive disorder, and THEY are the ones that have the issue, nothing to do with gaming

04:33 *** Joins: Thelema5 (Thelema5@is.a.curious.pone)

04:34 <Thelema5> Hello everypony

04:34 <Cepheid> A group of players fought Absolue Virtue, a boss in FFXI, for 18 hours.

04:35 <Cepheid> Pandemonium Warden also has a similar battle length.  Longer than it, actually.

04:35 <Saerydoth> yeah but people constantly rotated in and out

04:35 <Cepheid> That's true.

04:35 <DashedRainbows> Hey Thelema5

04:35 <Saerydoth> the group as a whole fought for 18 hours

04:35 <Cepheid> But people were getting sick over time.

04:35 <Saerydoth> individual people didn't

04:36 <Cepheid> The guild that fought Absolute Virtue commented that players were vomiting at one point.

04:36 <Cepheid> They opted to stop before they became a grisly story of video games ruining lives.

04:36 <Saerydoth> sounds like a small number of people with pre-existing mental disorders

04:37 <Cepheid> https://imgur.com/gallery/JlOmx

04:37 <Cepheid> Saerydoth:  Truth told, not taking care of yourself or consuming too much of something can cause symptoms like that.  Particularly if they were drinking lots of caffiene or energy drinks.

04:37 * Saerydoth hmms

04:37 * Saerydoth doesn't really like incense, is allergic to almost all of it

04:37 * Saerydoth nods

04:37 <Cepheid> My mother has witnessed what too much caffiene can do to someone at least once.

04:38 <Saerydoth> people have been known to make themselves sick studying that way

04:38 * Saerydoth saw a coworker have to get hospitalized for caffeine addiction

04:38 <Saerydoth> 10-12+ 24-packs of Mt Dew/day

04:38 <Cepheid> A 13-year-old kid was supposed to go with his parents to the NRC one morning.  THe kid decided it'd be a good idea the night before to stay up, and drink FIVE ENERGY DRINKS in rapid succession before he left to the NRC.

04:38 <Saerydoth> I couldn't drink that much water

04:38 <Saerydoth> let alone soda

04:38 <Cepheid> Cue the ambulance showing up as he passes out.

04:40 <Saerydoth> if you have any cardiac problems you can give yourself a heart attack too

04:41 <Saerydoth> reading

04:42 <Cepheid> 30 hours coding.

04:43 <DashedRainbows> ...

04:43 <Saerydoth> yep, coding too

04:43 <Cepheid> I ate food at regular intervals, used the bathroom, and took a shower, so I guess not consecutive, but yeah.

04:43 * Saerydoth nods

04:43 <Saerydoth> then you're fine

04:46 <Cepheid> My laptop is not designed to run some of the more modern games, so it's limited in what it can do.

04:50 * Filly_Nightmares flap flappies

04:51 <Saerydoth> Look up Penny Arcade GIFT

04:51 <Saerydoth> that pretty much covers it

04:52 <Cepheid> Ah yes, that.

04:53 <DashedRainbows> People range from indifferent to raging jerks

04:53 <DashedRainbows> Every now and then things go well

04:54 <PinkieShy> DashedRainbows i feel like doing something that is almost like the world stopping for me..

04:55 <PinkieShy> me stop being the nice person and turn into the deeper darker emo version of me.

04:56 <DashedRainbows> I can't even articulate a response to that today

04:56 <DashedRainbows> I'm out of it

04:57 <Cepheid> My advice, PinkieShy?  Don't.

04:57 <DashedRainbows> Well yeah :p

04:57 <DashedRainbows> I meant with a reason

04:57 <PinkieShy> If i were to let me just say.. uhh

04:57 <PinkieShy> Most of you might be worried/scared to talk to me anymore..

04:58 <PinkieShy> don't want to do it :3

04:58 <DashedRainbows> Not at all

04:58 <Cepheid> Actually I'm more likely to *YAY*-slap you and give you a lecture on how you're behaving.

04:59 <Cepheid> Huzzah, the hearing in my right ear is going!

05:00 <Cepheid> ... Were I any other person, I might be worried about such a thing.

05:00 <Thelema5> Cepheid, wow!

05:00 <Thelema5> You have endless hearing / ear issues

05:01 <Cepheid> Oh, this is a known condition.

05:01 <DashedRainbows> I'm feeling rather sad, again. I really do think nights are bad for me

05:02 <Cepheid> If I strain my ear with continunous noise, it'll just stop functioning.

05:02 <Cepheid> Louder the noise, the shorter the time frame.

05:02 * Thelema5 sighs and hopes for the best for his friends

05:02 <Cepheid> Oh, I'm fine with this.  It comes back.  It's been going on since I was 16.

05:02 <Cepheid> Which was around the time I had the surgery on that ear.  o3o

05:03 <PinkieShy> Why would anybody accuse me of not listening to what they are trying to teach me

05:03 <DashedRainbows> Because they can probably

05:04 <Cepheid> Is the jerky person doing that?  Sounds like they ran out of material, and are now attempting to attack you.

05:04 <RazorSharpFang> Jerky? Yum

05:04 <RazorSharpFang> (I'm funny)

05:04 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/Crunchyroll/status/946244827485675520 How to deal with the zombie apocalypse.

05:05 <DashedRainbows> Some day I'll snap but hopefully I won't go to insane

05:06 <RazorSharpFang> Consider not snapping. :) *tada!*

05:06 <Cepheid> I've snapped a few times.

05:06 <Cepheid> It's not fun.

05:06 <RazorSharpFang> Well as long as you can repair your broken bones.

05:06 <DashedRainbows> I'm trying to avoid it

05:07 <RazorSharpFang> And what leads someone to snapping anyhow?

05:07 <Cepheid> Usually too much stress and pressure.

05:07 <DashedRainbows> ^

05:07 <RazorSharpFang> I don't understand why people don't see that they're too stressed out, and stop doing what's stressing them, or reduce it, or something.

05:07 <Cepheid> Your mind can only take so much stimulation from the stress and pressure before it just...  stops functioning.

05:08 <RazorSharpFang> Is it an introspection thing?

05:08 <Cepheid> Because it's not always obvious that you're stressed out.

05:08 <Cepheid> Or the mind ignores the signs.

05:08 <Thelema5> RazorSharpFang, because sometimes the stakes are too high to just stop doing something

05:08 <DashedRainbows> And as I stress over everything then...

05:08 <RazorSharpFang> Thelema5, won't those same stakes be lost if they snap?

05:08 <Cepheid> In my case, I have a compulsive, inexplicable need to do as best as I possibly can.  Anything less is a sign of weakness.

05:09 <DashedRainbows> For instance, home dialysis stresses me but I can't write stop

05:09 <DashedRainbows> Quite

05:09 <Thelema5> For instance, i once worked two full time jobs back-to-back with an hour commute between them... my life was literally just working and sleeping for 8 months.  I knew it was killing me (and it really, really was) but I had to do it to ensure that my family was provided for

05:10 <DashedRainbows> Either feel like crap or feel like crap

05:10 <Thelema5> So it was a matter of personal sacrifice for the greater good

05:11 <Cepheid> In my previous semester, I was struggling to handle the four-course load, and I made it worse by continually putting off the discrete structures work.  Over time, the fact that I was falling behind in discrete structures was starting to take it's toll on me.

05:11 <Thelema5> In that sort of situation one will endure as much as they can so that their loved ones might not have to

05:11 <Cepheid> Eventually I managed to somehow take control of my mind enough to get help, and a week later, I withdrew from discrete structures so that it wouldn't impact my GPA.

05:11 <Thelema5> Cepheid, withdrawing from that class was a good decision.  It was killing you.

05:12 <DashedRainbows> True, if I were to snap it'd be for naught but I'm coping better now

05:14 <DashedRainbows> But honestly it doesn't matter

05:14 <DashedRainbows> Today was my day off but I did nothing with that time

05:16 <RazorSharpFang> In that case, set your goal to relax. Hmmmmmm

05:16 <Thelema5> Relaxing would be a good idea

05:16 <DashedRainbows> I am relaxed

05:17 <RazorSharpFang> I'm doing a 3/4 load myself - there's no shame in reducing your load so you can cope I think.

05:17 <DashedRainbows> My load is already so low

05:17 <RazorSharpFang> Partially, I think I'd do better if I wasn't 99th percentile neurotic, but whatever.

05:18 <Cepheid> Of the three remaining courses, I got at least an A- in each of them.

05:18 <Cepheid> That puts me pretty much above average.  Probably a Standard Deviation or two above the average.

05:19 <Cepheid> Most of the students in my program tend to average around C- to B-.

05:19 <RazorSharpFang> In my university, we have HD (high distinction) D (distinction) C (Credit) P (Pass) F (Fail) DNS (Did not submit)

05:19 <Cepheid> Ah.

05:20 <Cepheid> It ranges from F, D-, D, D+, C-, C, C+, B-, B, B+, A-, A, A+

05:20 <Cepheid> F being fail.

05:20 <Cepheid> There are other scales, used for specific classes, but the above is the most common.

05:20 <Thelema5> !seen schism

05:20 <DerpyBot> Thelema5: Silly filly, your eyes are all derpy. schism is in the channel.

05:20 <Cepheid> A- means I got 80-84%, A is 85-89%, 90%+ is A+.

05:21 <RazorSharpFang> Are they specifically for concrete scores or are they relative?

05:21 <Cepheid> Ranges of scores, in this case.

05:21 <RazorSharpFang> Right, but I mean in terms of average/std-dev

05:21 <Cepheid> You mean grading on a bell curve?

05:21 <RazorSharpFang> Right

05:22 <Cepheid> As far as I know, that is up to the professor.

05:22 <Cepheid> That said, I know I am to the right of the curve for Web Apps.  He showed the bell curve for the class midway through the semester.

05:22 <Cepheid> It was a pretty sad state.

05:22 <RazorSharpFang> A lot of statistics are kinda down.

05:23 <Cepheid> Most of the grades were in the D and C range.

05:23 <Cepheid> Few in the F range.

05:23 <RazorSharpFang> My professor for AdvNetworking said that 95% of students who don't attend the lectures fail.

05:23 <Cepheid> Only two or three were in the A range. o3o

05:23 <Cepheid> Not sure about that claim.

05:23 <Cepheid> I stopped attending my lectures near the end of the semester.

05:23 <Cepheid> And in at least one case, I stopped attending from the get-go.

05:23 <Cepheid> And in all cases, I passed with an A- or higher.

05:24 <Cepheid> ... That'd make me an outlier, wouldn't it?

06:03 <Verandure> Yes. Brazil got annoyed at being told to preserve the Amazon. It's a vast natural resource for their country (the only one) so they're cutting it, again, for economic reasons.

06:03 <RazorSharpFang> Maybe they should just limit it to the natural replacement rate, or start using farming practices.

06:21 <Starwatcher> photons as well

06:22 <Starwatcher> I'm using it to do x-ray stuff

06:22 * Verandure might have to look into that, then. My professor doesn't want me using Monte Carlo stuff, though =\

06:22 <Verandure> What kinds of materials are you x-raying? =3

06:23 <Starwatcher> oh!

06:24 <Starwatcher> doing energetic particle precipitation into atmosphere from radiation belts -> makes x-rays -> detector designed to image them

06:24 <Cepheid> You know, I know human skin secretes an oil, but this is stupid.  The earpieces for my headphones are apparently covered in enough of it that it seeped through and ruined four pages of printed stuffs.

06:24 <Starwatcher> question is if we can go backwards from the x-rays to get the original electron energy distribution

06:26 <Verandure> That sounds really interesting. Is it going to be a cherenkov detector?

06:28 <Verandure> --Like, looking for particle showers triggered by high energy x-rays or is it a detector in the atmosphere itself sampling the O3 directly?

06:29 <Starwatcher> oh

06:29 <Starwatcher> electron energy spectrum comes in at > 100 km

06:29 <Starwatcher> but does not survive down to our altitude

06:30 <Starwatcher> trick is to get it by measuring the secondaries

06:30 <Verandure> Right. And then a bunch of statistics on the distribution of the event over an area vs your detector area.

06:37 <RazorSharpFang> I defrag my computer monthly

06:39 <Verandure> Isn't that bad for your hard-drive? You only get so many writes before it breaks down.

06:39 <RazorSharpFang> It's not an SSD, and it's a hand-me-down machine.

06:39 <Cepheid> Depends on the type of drive.  Platter drives can generally handle it fine.

06:39 <Cepheid> It's SSDs that are limited.

06:40 <Verandure> I see.

06:50 <Cepheid> Most SSDs are using TLC or MLC, currently, I believe.

06:51 * Verandure nods.

10:56 * Schism also boops Librarian with an egg salad sandwich.

11:02 *** Joins: Librarian (Librarian@Pony-cpcgk9.staticip.rima-tde.net)

11:03 <Librarian> There is this bookshop called waterstones

11:03 <Librarian> thwy have all them pratchett books, rare editions too

11:04 <Schism> Oooh.  Pick up a couple Discworld books, yes, the ones you've yet to read.

11:04 <Librarian> Read em all

11:04 <Librarian> im picking up long utopia and long cosmos

11:05 <Librarian> a couple library edition discworld

11:05 <Librarian> and a dalek book

11:05 <Librarian> at least owo

11:05 <Schism> Hmmmm, haven't read any of Pratchett's sci-fi.  I should!

11:05 <Schism> Hope you've read Good Omens, too?  <.<

11:05 <Librarian> long earth series is awesome

11:06 <Librarian> of course 3 times and a audiobook run

11:06 <Librarian> they also have good onens special print

11:07 <Schism> Also, did you know that Douglas Adams wrote an episode or two of Doctor Who?

11:07 <Librarian> imma try finding a signed book by pratchett

11:07 <Librarian> yep

11:07 <Librarian> gaiman too

11:08 <Librarian> a pratchett dictor who epidode would have been neat too

11:09 <Librarian> i know there is a police box in london somewhere

11:09 <Librarian> ill take a pic if i find it

11:10 <Schism> I should hope that there are police boxen in London.  What you're looking for, though, is a blue one.  (Actual London police boxen are red.)

11:10 <Librarian> Ohh

11:11 <Librarian> wasnt aware of red ones

11:11 <Librarian> there isva tardis blue box somewhere, that im sure

11:11 <Schism> Or... huh.  Okay, I am wrong.  I could have sworn.

11:11 <Schism> So there are blue boxes.  Somehow my mind made me think that red was the normal colour because the BBC and licensing and ... I have no clue.

11:11 <Librarian> phone box you mean?

11:12 <Schism> I mean, there were these in Scotland.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_box#/media/File:EdinburghCoffeeBox.jpg

11:12 <Lumindia> the phone boxes are pretty much always blue

11:12 <Librarian> bbc owns the tardis box, they fought the metro police for it

12:31 <Snapai> Schism, I'm getting a washer and dryer! :D :D

12:31 <Schism> Nice!  That'll be much better than lugging your stuff to a laundromat.

12:32 <Snapai> Well I already had one, but they were hand-me-downs that were 20 and 10 years old, respectively.

12:34 <Snapai> So I'm getting a Samsung WF5000 and DV5000

12:34 <Snapai> https://www.samsung.com/us/home-appliances/washers/front-load/wf5000-4-2-cu-ft-front-load-washer-white-wf42h5000aw-a2/ and https://www.samsung.com/us/home-appliances/dryers/electric/dv5000-7-5-cu-ft-electric-dryer-white-dv42h5000ew-a3/

12:35 <Snapai> My folks have that model too. They're FAST - each one has a 30 minute cycle, the washer uses less water, the washer has an end of cycle melody instead of nothing, the dryer has an end of cycle melody instead of a heart-stoppingly-loud buzz. :D

12:37 <Snapai> So laundry will be an hour long deal rather than an all-evening thing, and the stress of putting enough sound dampening between me and the dryer will no longer be an issue!

12:37 <Snapai> (plus the stress of the dryer taking 140 minutes to dry and the washer not reliably draining...)

13:52 * Finwe o3o's at FruitNibbler.

13:53 <FruitNibbler> But when I got at the very top of the montain, the length of the descend proven to be too long to enjoy

13:54 <FruitNibbler> My legs got tired (since I am not an avid skier), my brain got bored of maintaining awareness over the endless corners and I started to fail a bit

13:54 <FruitNibbler> All in all getting out at half that distance would be ideal tbh

13:55 <FruitNibbler> Or getting one of them snow scooters to ride seated

13:57 <FruitNibbler> Don't get me wrong I love skiing. And even enjoyed quite a bit of cross-country fun as a teen.

13:57 <FruitNibbler> It's just sometimes you get too much of a good thing. Then it is suddenly ungood.

20:28 <Cepheid> It's -31C here with the wind.

20:28 <Schism> Gyargh.  Yeah, we're just outside it...

20:28 <Cepheid> Also, why the hell are Government of Canada websites popping up in French by default?

20:29 <PinkieShy> Schism and Cephied.. I feel like a failure at life.. a failure that just don't need to exist no more.

20:29 <Schism> I dunno, I noticed that on occasion down here too.

20:29 * Schism nods... "I definitely feel the same way sometimes. This weather definitely doesn't help, PinkieShy. Maybe find something to do... cooking, maybe?"

20:33 <Starlight_Glimmer> Schism: What happened with your old job?

20:34 <Schism> Got canned a while ago.

20:35 <Cepheid> Myself, I'm on edge, nervous and I'm locked up on what to do.

20:35 <Cepheid> My mind wants me to work.  But at the same time, I want to game.

20:35 <Cepheid> So my brain is defaulting to a particularly bad state.

20:36 <Cepheid> "If I'm not working, then I should just go to sleep."

20:37 <Verandure> Would you like to talk about it, PinkieShy? I've got two ears you can box if it'll help.

20:38 <Schism> Cepheid: Hmm.  Play Shenzhen I/O then?

20:38 <Cepheid> Tempting.

20:39 <Cepheid> Alternatively, acknowledge that this tool of mine is "sufficient" and stop trying to "fix it" so to speak.

20:39 <Finwe> AB Cepheid, Mr Schism.

20:39 <Finwe> o7

20:40 * Finwe patpatshugs a PinkieShy.

20:40 * Filly_Nightmares chews on Finwe's leg

20:41 <PinkieShy> I'm a failure of a human being.. :(

20:41 <Cepheid> Officially, so am I.

20:41 <Princess-Luna> ^ Same

20:41 <Cepheid> As an animal and a human being, I'm supposed to want to procreate.  I have no desire to do so.  Therefore I am a failure as an animal and a human being.

20:42 <PinkieShy> I have a good idea to take revenge right now on the jerk..

20:42 <PinkieShy> I'm thinking of posting their discord channel link in 4chan.

20:43 <Cepheid> PinkieShy, that jerk was trying to do exactly this.

20:43 <Cepheid> Don't give them what they want.

21:18 <Cepheid> I don't entirely know why I've suddenly become a more happy-go-lucky person all of a sudden.  Talking to a counselor can't be *THAT* useful.

21:19 <Verandure> Depends on what you needed the counselor for.

21:20 <Cepheid> I just mostly ranted and talked about everything, no matter how small or insignificant, that was bothering me.

21:21 <Verandure> This sounds like a good reason for counseling. =P

21:21 <Verandure> Something something getting it off your chest.

21:21 <Cepheid> I had many things, so incredibly small and insignificant that bothered me, to no end.

21:22 <Schism> Gotta agree with Verandure.  Even those tiny little things add up to a huge weight.

21:22 <Verandure> But it's great that you're feeling more upbeat, lately. =3

21:23 <Cepheid> Incidences with my parents from when I was 7 years old.  Wondering if I made the right choice regarding Simba, all over a small sound he made when he was being put to sleep.  My dislike for people calling me a genius or telling me how smart I am. >_>

21:23 <DashedRainbows> I've found that I'm a lot more positive with others than myself

21:24 * Schism offers Cepheid another hug on that second point.

21:25 <Cepheid> I'm better about it, though it still causes me to break down from time to time if I talk about Simba.

21:29 <Cepheid> Anyways, I got some chores I should do.

21:29 <Schism> Those are useful.  Keeping busy!

21:29 * Schism is tempting to flop. Even if it wasn't -40ish out there, it's still cold.

21:29 <Schism> tempted*

21:33 <DashedRainbows> I'll probably take a shower then get dialysis today, sigh, so close yet so far

21:34 <DashedRainbows> There's a lot of workup for a transplant apparently

21:34 <Verandure> What do you mean, workup?

21:35 <DashedRainbows> Labs, imaging, beaurocracy

21:36 <DashedRainbows> Autocorrect is so useless

21:36 <Verandure> I suppose that's fair considering the relative lack of organs.

21:36 <Verandure> Just don't let the dialysis clinic rope you in to staying longer than necessary.

21:36 <DashedRainbows> Good thing I can wait

21:37 <DashedRainbows> I'm already working with the transplant center

21:37 <Verandure> That's good.

21:38 <DashedRainbows> Got appointments on the fourth for imaging

22:12 <Ali> Swore Netflix had S7

22:12 <Verandure> Same. You might be able to find it on Dailymotion.

22:13 <Crystalcane> Have you watched all of it?

22:13 <Verandure> yup yup.

22:13 <Crystalcane> When does s8 come out

22:14 <Ali> Unknown

22:14 <Ali> There's no official release day yet for S8, though usually in spring

22:20 <Filly_Nightmares> Wat

22:20 <Ali> Thats a bit of personal info dear, pass

22:21 <Crystalcane> You can't ask of something like that?

22:22 <Ali> I can refuse to answer if I choose.

22:23 <Crystalcane> Ok can you tell me anything about the series i might/may not know?

22:23 <Verandure> Boulder ate Maud's sandwich in the episode Maud Pie, showing that the rock, indeed, possesses some kind of sentience.

22:25 <Crystalcane> You can't watch any episodes on this channel?

22:26 <Verandure> How do you mean? IRC doesn't have a video playing feature.

22:28 <Crystalcane> Idk have a good day bye! :)

22:28 <Verandure> Have a good one.

22:29 <Crystalcane> So Verandure

22:29 <Verandure> Yup?

22:29 <Crystalcane> Water you up too? get it? what are. Funny right?

22:30 <Verandure> It's a good pun, but needs the proper context!

22:30 <Crystalcane> So what seasons have u watched?

22:31 <Verandure> I've watched 'em all. A couple times for most of 'em. I don't particularly like seasons 6 or 7, though.

22:31 <Ali> How dare you not like Glim Glam

22:31 * Verandure -despises- glim glam =P

22:31 <Crystalcane> I like s7 ep 25 and 26

22:32 <Ali> The finale was interesting

22:33 <Crystalcane> in the end star swirl wasnt really a hero he just sends everything throught portals and extends the time these cretures roam in mlp world
