11:38:15 <Nothing\> well, i'll be
11:38:36 <Nothing\> gemini actually provided me with a good bit of ACCURATE info on my injury
11:39:23 <Nothing\> lol and yet when i gave it a case report it completely hallucinated it as something else completely irrelevant every single time lol
11:39:28 <Nothing\> did i mention lol?
11:40:22 <Nothing\> probably has the most tantalizing title of anything i've read "femoral head dislocation to the scrotum"
11:40:45 <Nothing\> btu you'd think it'd figure out it's not about a brain tumour just by the title lol
11:41:33 <Nothing\> getting some crazy swelling/bruising from this now
11:41:53 <Nothing\> even my damn pec is swelling up. how the hell does your pec swell from a broken collarbone?
11:42:06 <Nothing\> swell and bruised all yellow and brown
11:42:44 <Nothing\> and down to my scapula on my back lol
11:43:13 <Nothing\> it's funny i find this more amusing than anything
11:43:33 <Nothing\> at least until surgery time
11:44:23 <Nothing\> and i'm sure it's no coincidence i've been lamenting on how barbaric modern surgical techniques are. how the only thing separating them from torture is pain control
11:48:48 <MrMobodies> when are they going to start surgery?

12:17:03 <MrMobodies> 2.8c temperature in May which I find very unusual

12:33:46 <MrMobodies> Now isn't that ridiculous out of all the hospitals nearer
12:34:05 <MrMobodies> 1817 miles
12:34:28 <MrMobodies> just to be isolated and observed at an NHS hospital
12:35:55 <MrMobodies> why not an European hospital
12:36:20 <MrMobodies> out of all the hospitals they can choose from they choose the farthest away.
12:36:51 <MrMobodies> that would have cut 3 hours off their journey

12:49:05 <Nothing\> omg i keep like going into shock from this injury
12:49:24 <Halcyon> What have you done to yourself Nothing\ ?
12:49:32 <Nothing\> not hypovolemic dangerous kill your ass type shock. Just shock like "oh boy you fucked yourself up bad" type shock
12:50:10 <Nothing\> Halcyon, broken collar bone with sever displacement needing plates and screws which won't happen for at least a week or two

12:50:31 <Nothing\> https://i.ibb.co/VcHcrgWx/20260508-140619.jpg
12:50:34 <Halcyon> I feel like, go to a hospital is the correct response here?
12:50:41 <Nothing\> yup i did
12:50:44 <Halcyon> Oh you did
12:50:52 <Nothing\> i'm seeing a surgeon on friday but still surgery is slow here
12:51:04 <Halcyon> Damn
12:51:33 <Nothing\> lol my collar bone is popping up like 2-3 inches because my neck tendons are yanking it up with nothing to fix it to my shoulder anymore
12:51:53 <Nothing\> not so much painful but damn is it gnarly feeling
12:52:11 <Halcyon> *shudders*
12:52:24 <Nothing\> exaclty lol
12:52:54 <Nothing\> i was one step from getting into bed, fell asleep or something and fell from standing right onto my shoulder
12:53:13 <Nothing\> thankfully my head missed my nightstand by a couple of inches. lol
12:53:50 <Nothing\> i dunno if you've ever broken a bone, but at once i had that distinct feeling you get where it just doesn't feel right. Like something isn't where it should be.
12:54:36 <Nothing\> then i saw the bone popping out and knew immediately it needed surgery. I just didn't mexpect it to take so damn long to get me in
12:55:00 <Nothing\> and that's expedited as urgent. Normally I'd have to wait 20-45 days
12:55:25 <Nothing\> damn broken healthcare
12:55:42 <Nothing\> even cancer patients wait months for surgery sometimes
12:57:15 <Halcyon> I've never broken a bone
12:57:43 <Halcyon> I can't imagine it's pleasant at all
13:06:31 <Nothing\> it depends. This wasn't THAT painful for what it was, but breaking my big toe had me screaming in agony on the ground for 20 minutes. somehow.
13:51:55 <MrMobodies> 2 weeks, what is very long
13:53:52 <MrMobodies> oh so not as painful
13:54:13 <MrMobodies> my sister had problems last year with gall stones
13:54:45 <MrMobodies> they should have operated on her straight away as soon she submitted a complaint
13:54:52 <MrMobodies> according to the investigation
13:55:07 <MrMobodies> instead they didn't do no proper scans
13:55:18 <MrMobodies> and put her on this "wait and watch" thing
13:55:25 <MrMobodies> she was in pain one night
13:55:37 <MrMobodies> and as she was coming down the stairs, she fell down
13:55:52 <MrMobodies> her neighbour heard her fell down and scream and called the ambulance
13:56:25 <MrMobodies> my mum and dad visited her in her hospital, the same place that misdiagnosd and her her on that wait and watch thng
13:56:58 <MrMobodies> and had a big argument with them as they wanted to discharge her and still refusing to do scans
13:57:29 <MrMobodies> so my mum paid privatetely for a scan
13:57:43 <MrMobodies> and submitted with a complain, then she was put on a 2 year waiting list
13:59:15 <MrMobodies> she fell down again coming down the stairs but not as bad as last time, after another complaint with the scans to show she needed it where she couldn't manager her condition under this "wait and watch", they had her in a few weeks later
15:50:17 <Nothing\> ugh
15:50:29 <Nothing\> i just realized i'm gonna need to shower before i have surgery
15:50:45 <Nothing\> but i can't even lift my arm under its own power save for my elbow
15:51:04 <Nothing\> lol i can't even lift it up to apply deodorant
15:51:37 <Nothing\> i just kinda jam the stick in there and move it around like the first time i had sex

18:23:44 <K> hello footpound enthusiasts

20:40:16 Mode: (by ChanOP) +o steve30
21:17:34 <K> aye.
21:17:39 <K> a thank.
21:30:51 <Ysjoelfir> I decided to make a "real" bolognese this time, not the "lets dump some random meat into tomato sauce" variant.
21:33:18 <K> (googles)
21:33:24 <K> ((in shame))
21:40:47 <K> regarding things German - the dial indicator arrived. is nice. packed in a proper shoes box.
21:55:59 * steve30 just had some curry out of the freezer
21:56:07 <steve30> (heated up of course)
22:01:27 <Ysjoelfir> eh, no need for shaming there, K. I make the meat tomato variant all the time, but I felt like using this day in the home office for something meaningful.
22:02:03 <Ysjoelfir> also, packing indicators in shoe boxes sounds very german :D
22:12:04 <K> i approve.
23:00:16 <electrohead> !caffeine
23:00:16 * EEVBot runs off with the .. stuff
23:00:19 <electrohead> pfft

23:00:43 <Nothing\> ohfuckohfuckohfuckohfuckohfuck
23:00:54 * Nothing\ rocks back and forth neurotically
23:01:00 <Nothing\> just got THE CALL
23:01:10 <Nothing\> it's happening this afternoon some time
23:01:12 * electrohead runs
23:01:19 <Nothing\> i dunno whether to be terrified or excited
23:01:29 <Nothing\> electrohead, heya buddy how ya doing?
23:02:20 <Nothing\> but yeah, that was my first instinct. to run. but it needs done and asap.
23:04:00 <Nothing\> it's not so much the surgery that scares me. I've done that. But, the unknowns are terrifying.
23:05:30 <Nothing\> whether my meds will interact with the anesthesia, if it's an overnight stay, what my pain level's gonna be since I can't take any opioids. Or how that's even going to work since fentanyl is one of the drugs they give you for anesthesia. Unless they're just gonna fuck me up on ketamine as they sometimes do where traditional anesthetics are contraindicated
23:06:32 <Nothing\> how long it's going to take, which i don't even know why i'm worried about that because i'll be in literal oblivion at the time
23:07:00 <Nothing\> but anxiety has a funny way of making you worry about things that don't actually matter
23:07:52 <Nothing\> ah well i'll play a game and take my mind off of it until my anxiety meds kick in, at least i can take those even though they're contraindicated with propofol, i'll be intubated so it's not like i'll stop breathing
23:08:19 <Nothing\> which i think was michael jackson's downfall when he died on propofol
23:08:27 <Nothing\> lol
23:08:45 <Nothing\> :/ :) :( :o
23:09:26 <Nothing\> bloody bruising goes all the way from my shoulder blade over my shoulder, down my bicept and down into my damn pec
23:09:44 <Nothing\> my pec is actually swollen. I call it my mono-boob
23:10:04 <Nothing\> and i named the injury walrus
23:10:26 <Nothing\> at least the fracture, the ligaments i just call hamburger meat
23:10:49 <Nothing\> hooo sorry to bramble like this. I'm very nervous.
23:11:07 <Nothing\> babble+ramble
23:11:27 <Nothing\> or.. brambaffle? if you add waffle

23:40:32 <Nothing\> oh jesus
23:40:55 <Nothing\> there's a coding game on steam with a romance plot shoehorned into it somehow... for some reason
23:41:12 <Nothing\> "learn to code, fall in love, save the world"
23:41:30 <Nothing\> sounds like something a weaboo made
