🇬🇧Former A&E Nurse- currently adjusting (well, trying to…) life outside of emergency and chaos. Wait, this is what the outside looks like?!

A bit sweary. Interests in healthcare (obvs), tech, gaming and climate change. I have a dark sense of humour and don’t take myself too seriously.

I love engaging with all people- every last wonderfully unique one of you :heart_rainbow: (except nazis, you can piss off)

Tonight, my mate and I came 2nd in 6 out of 8 games. 6 f*cking games! Not a single win! Absolutely brutal. 💀

A fun story from my past week… I’m trying to share the positives.

I had a surgical procedure Monday and had 4 nurses involved during various steps. My 2 surgical nurses knew what POTS was and treated me so well - they gave me extra fluids. :)

My last nurse in recovery… her 16 year old daughter has . What did I do? Of course I talked to her and answered questions and was an advocate… on my surgical bed… because that’s what I do. 💜☺️

We exchanged emails 🤘🏻

I’ve been hooked on since it released. Such a chill but interesting game!

I’m considering starting a new game on stream tomorrow evening. 👀

I have a wedding to go to tomorrow. I hate going to weddings. Especially ones where I basically don’t know anyone.

It’s just full of socially awkward small talk I don’t care for, with people I’ll never speak to again in my life. What’s the point?

It’s stream day! :blob_cat_dance:

I’ll be continuing my “Can You Beat Crash Bandicoot Without Breaking Boxes?” challenge. Only got to level 3 last time out. Let’s see if we can get any further!

Streaming on Twitch at 8pm (UTC +1)!

@EighthLayer This’ll be interesting, last time I watched you were at a gate that seemed to only open if you broke the box- did you manage to bypass that out of curiosity?

@EighthLayer Oh, I just saw the date on this post. Yesterday was one of those days where I lost all track of time and day. 😭

My wife and I woke up to the great news that our son got into the school we wanted. It was the only one we applied to considering it’s on our doorstep and we can see from our house!

It’s a primary/middle/secondary combined school so we’ll never have to worry about applying to another school again!

We’re very happy! 😁

@EighthLayer Oooff that is a great little deal you got there!

EighthLayer, to Spotify
@EighthLayer@mstdn.games avatar

I’ve started testing out alternatives to #Spotify as they’re putting their prices up yet again! £20pm for Family plan now. 🙄

I’ve started with #AppleMusic as I had a 2-month free trial, but the Windows app is trash. It keeps telling me playback has stopped on another device. It wasn’t playing on another device in the first place. Also songs just randomly stops playing or starts from the beginning again. 🤦‍♂️

Might try #Tidal and #YouTubeMusic next.

Anyone got any recommendations?

#Music

harrybo93,
@harrybo93@mstdn.games avatar

@EighthLayer Can vouch for Tidal too, but Qobuz is also worth a look

Costco is one of the best places to buy cheap gender neutral clothing. And by that I mean, clothing labeled for ‘men’ that fit me perfectly and make me feel better in my own skin.

I’ll take it.

EighthLayer, to cars
@EighthLayer@mstdn.games avatar

I do wonder what these electric car manufacturers think of sometimes. They give the cars random noises that I don’t associate with a car at all.

Just now there was one waiting to reverse out of a space as I was walking across the car park, but it sounded like a strange alarm so I was looking anywhere but the car. It wasn’t until I’d walked across and I saw it started reversing that it was the car making that noise.

harrybo93,
@harrybo93@mstdn.games avatar

@EighthLayer @thegamerstavern Damn straight- I know people would think it is a bit counterintuitive or something but actual engine noises should be played at low speed I think. At least for a few generations, people have a hard wired instinct to immediately turn their attention to any loud revving noise.

One of the worst things since lockdown happened is that couriers now think it’s acceptable to leave packages on a doorstep and consider that “delivered”.

I say “a doorstep” as my wife just had a notification to say a package has been delivered. It’s nowhere to be seen.

Unless you’ve handed it to me directly as I’ve opened the door, I do not consider it delivered!

Edit: I don’t blame the drivers themselves. It’s the companies who dictate how drivers are supposed to perform their duties.

harrybo93,
@harrybo93@mstdn.games avatar

@EighthLayer Exactly this- having an argument with a courier I use about this currently. They can’t seem to grasp it

I just spent over an hour on the toilet just before going to bed.

Sat down just before 1am and got up again little after 2am. I must have blacked out or something because it only felt like a few minutes.
