    Hurt myself at work, boss tried to claim I didn’t hurt myself and just walked off the jobsite. Local compensation system has an online portal where I can view all communications related to my case.

    Boss waited until the final day of evidence collection to submit a report saying i faked my injury to the local compensation board.

    The evidence included in his report is a text message I included in my injury report as evidence they knew I was injured.

    It has been almost 2 months of ‘investigation’ because of this and they’re just going to lose the case but I haven’t been FUCKING PAID.

    Vindictive and cruel just because, I suppose. I hadn’t actually met my boss in person until that day, too.

        I’m not holding my breath but I do have a text from my supervisor that says “Hey the office is treating it like you quit” after a chain of messages about my injury where my supervisor says “I know you’re hurt”

        It would SEEM like i should win, even if they used every second allotted them for every stage of the process

    I took that screengrab myself a few minutes ago. I’m finally near the end of Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025). I had to keep the subs on because a character only speaks French. I used the SDH subs. She doesn’t say much but I’m the kind of person who needs to hear every, single last word.

    The movie ~3 hours long but it feels ~10 hours long. I thought an M:I franchise binge would be escapism to help me pretend hellworld doesn’t exist. The first movie actually worked and I really enjoyed it. I highly recommend that you watch it or rewatch it. The rest of of movies mostly failed as escapism.

    I saw Final Reckoning blind - I hardly knew a thing about it. I didn’t even know how long it was. If you haven’t seen it - you shouldn’t. I give it a 4/10. It’s embarrassingly bad.

    Nutshell summary: It’s not actually an M:I movie. It’s a TOM CRUISE SAVES THE WORLD AND CANNOT DIE! movie. I guessed that at 6:09 yet I kept watching and pausing and watching and pausing even though I could have stopped long before now.

    The last few times there has been a big RIGHT LANE CLOSED AHEAD sign with cones and a steady stream of cars behind me switching into it so they can speed to the front and merge at the end. I almost full on rammed a cop the last time who was trying to pull the same shit.

    Context: I’ve spent my entire adult life dedicated to serving the whims of a mad AI god intent on destroying the entire world so it can rewrite the remains in its image.

    Recently, the AI tried to betray me and cut me out of the deal because I failed to kill an international super spy who was always foiling its plans. I stole the AI’s source code and manipulated the spy into delivering some key components and characters to an underground apocalypse bunker in South Africa. I seized control of the AI’s key piece of hardware that I duped the super spy into assembling and boarded a biplane to escape. I was just about to use the AI to become, essentially, god, but it turns out the super spy was hanging on my biplane and stabbed me after an intense brawl.
