Finished #StarWarsZeroCompany A++ amazing story, great combat, some compelling characters, and if Bit Reactor can get the money and their staff back there is SO much room for a sequel or ten. Anyway here’s Wonderwall.
That isn’t how it fucking works you ORANGE OOZING TWAT NOZZLE!

It’s my son’s birthday tomorrow and I don’t think I’m getting across the border before my US drive time expires. Meaning I’m going to be late getting home tomorrow and I may miss my therapy appointment and some of his birthday celebration.
How’s your day going? I’ve been writing 2024 as the year on important government documents all day.
Work is trying to send me to NJ again today which normally I’ll just groan about, but this time I won’t have enough time to get home in time for my son’s birthday tomorrow.
In my third truck in as many trips. I do hope this one lasts.
The amount of rage that this fills me with cannot be measured. Every country that fought there already failed the people of Afghanistan, and now we won’t even keep our promises.

So day that ends in Y strikes again. Moving back to my old truck that vomited coolant that I moved back into? It’s leaking coolant again. Slow enough to get home but it needs to be repaired. 🤮
Andrew Baker 🇨🇦@abakern7.bsky.social · 6d agoUgh. Lost three hours yesterday to technical and border delays so now not only am I an hour late for my delivery, but there are at least eight people in front of me before I can deliver.
I didn’t even know they had caught Tupac’s killer.

At least things are moving along, and I can watch House of the Dragon finally.
Ugh. Lost three hours yesterday to technical and border delays so now not only am I an hour late for my delivery, but there are at least eight people in front of me before I can deliver.
#StarWarsZeroCompany is so amazing that when I finally felt tired it was almost 7:30am. Anyways, here’s Wonderwall.
Damn, #StarWarsZeroConpany takes the best of #XCOM and #MarvelsMidnightSuns puts in some snappy Star Wars dialogue and made an awesome game! Say hi to Hawks!
All the delays worked out to my advantage. I thought I was going to wake up and drive the rest of the way back to the yard and go home. Instead I got a long trip that will take me on my old route so that is going to make for a great paycheque.
Beans wants to remind you all that if things are too much, you can log off and take a break.
Two hours and ten minutes and still 2.8 miles before I even reach the border.
Fuck. It’s been 10 years since all the celebrities died in 2016. This better not be a record breaking year.
Stuck waiting in a line to cross the Blue Water Bridge into the USA a two plus hour wait. In fifteen minutes I haven’t even moved. So upon the advice of @elementalamber.bsky.social I am continuing to watch #Furious
It doesn’t happen nearly often enough but oh boy do I treasure the times I get enough freedom in my job to pull of a quick visit.
The Wicker Amber@elementalamber.bsky.social · 2w agoWe got to spent almost an hour sitting outside of the coffee place with our wonderful friend/brother @abakern7.bsky.social! It is an amazing gift when he can take an hour or two off of his route when he comes through our part of Ohio. 💜💜💜
I may have snuck off to visit friends today rather than drive my truck back to the yard. In fairness to me this was how far they want me to drive without freight or a trailer so why rush? I don’t get paid by the hour, and I still get paid.
Looking forward to getting home this week and playing #StarWarsZeroCompany Everything I’ve heard is that it is so much more than just “Star Wars X-Com” Also, looking forward to putting my friends into it since that seems to be a thing.
Today has been a long ass day. I’m still at least six hours from my delivery, I will 100% be late, and I don’t actually care. This is a big step for me. I’ll still be going to sleep early, waking up early in order to get there as quickly as possible, but still a big step.
If I hadn’t been fascinated with the fact that there I am shipping chicken flavoured crackers and just written crackers on my form I would be driving to Kentucky right now rather than sitting in a CBP office for the last 30 minutes with no end in sight.
