Olympic Skelton racer. I was watching curling right before though. Which might be safer, but looks like RSI and sore backs for life to me.

Not descript science person in the last science place a la George Cloonry in The Midnight Sky.

I could dig it. I'd want more drugs than alcohol personally but it looks like a blast apart from slowly dying, but that's literally everything you can do. This come with drugs.

A recovering drug addict piloting a rapid medical response deep space vessel.

TitleSupernova (2000). It wasn't good but I still enjoyed it.

Gladiator (Thraex, to be specific) in ancient Rome.

Not looking forward to that, I'll be toast in half second in a match that takes place well before the midday sun (a timeslot for absolute losers).

I guess I'm a fourth grade student now? Sounds actually kinda nice.

[–] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 2 points 2 days ago

Does Dispatch count? Because if so, I’m a dispatcher/Mecha Man.

If not…I don’t really have a job, I’ve lost all my money and am stuck in a town I bought for my son for his birthday as a joke. (I just started this one, so I’m sure the situation changes somewhat as the show goes on.)

Fallout? Does employment even exist at that point?

I now harvest coffee like an Italian immigrant in early 1900s' Brazil^[Italian emigration inspector Adolfo Rossi undertook a investigation into the conditions faced by Italian emigrants on the fazendas, travelling undercover, disguised as a peasant. Rossi's report painted a dramatic picture of the semi-slavery conditions based on the testimonies collected: women raped, men whipped, discipline that "makes the fazenda look like a colony of convicts under compulsory residence," disease, failure to pay wages or delays in payment, misery. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Brazilians]. Fuck me.

I'm an Expendable. But not the cool action movie kind. More like the 3D printed copy of a person that they use to run experiments on. I die gruesome deaths often... For Science!
