I think these are kinda my town leans.

(1) I think lurk Mastina is scum Mastina. Not really sure her role really fits into things though. Kuroi just feels there. He feels so robotic. He just has no charisma? Obv if Mastina or Kuroi flip scum the other is too.

Why are you asking about my town reads?

Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

y? I'm being majorly town read b/c of meta (i think) but I'm not seeing why its "worrisome" and "dangerous" to town read me unless you think I shouldn't be town read. And if you think that I shouldn't be then you need to share with the class. I mean yeah, its possible that there are scum that are sheeping the "Nero is town" wave and if you think that then who are they? Also, I'm like the only one that's doing any scumhunting.



RM is mostly a POE town read and Pork is too tasy to be scum.

I agree with you, and I think he's pretty scummy, but outside of being an ass why are you on him over someone like Chickadee?

Also, where on earth did Mastina go?

Health update:
Because the doctor basically didn't believe that I had been feverish for 4 weeks (which, by now, is either 5.5 or 6.5 weeks, forgot what week it started exactly), I decided to get a portable thermometer for data collection purposes, to provide proof on a return visit.

First time I caught it was Monday, at 100.1°.
Tuesday and Wednesday, I got readings of 98.5 and 98.9°. (I forget which day was which reading.)

Those may seem a bit high (I actually don't know what the normal human body temperature actually is, so maybe that is normal, maybe not), but I know that my family genetics mean that my normal healthy temperature is a little bit higher than the average human body temperature, so even if those temperatures are high for someone else, I don't consider them feverish for me.

But today I got an unambiguous and undeniably feverish reading of 99.8°. Granted, that's a low-grade fever, but it still IS a fever.

Aside from alternating between burning up and freezing (which is annoying, but livable), my sickness mostly is manifesting right now in sapping my stamina. (AKA, the thing that I already have only a low amount of, which Mafia drains faster than anything else.)

I AM fighting back. I am taking a Vitamin C supplement, which is 125% the daily value. I am also taking a multivitamin which has that same 125% DV of Vitamin C (so basically, my body is getting more Vitamin C than it could ever possibly use, to the point where it's even wasteful).

Said multivitamin also has Vitamin D, plus the Bs, and so on and so forth. I'm also drinking whole milk before bed. (Also, not relevant to sickness, but I take a fiber supplement as well.)

Every day I work, I also drink Green Tea when they have it. (Which I understand is supposed to be the healthiest for fighting sickness?) Admittedly they often don't, mostly having Herbal tea, Black Tea, and Lipton tea (and of those, I really have no clue which are better; I tend to grab 2 herbal, 1 black, and 1 Lipton), but I am drinking it when I can.

I am hydrating myself constantly and am resting frequently. I am even eating lunches at work, too, so I get food a plenty, plus I listen to my body to give it the nutrients it asks for.

I really don't think that I can do more than what I already am. Open to suggestions tho.
For the game: I'll probably not post today, but I'll manage either tomorrow or Saturday.
