There are days, sometimes even weeks, where I can't help but think having a ton of tiny mechanical arms would be really helpful for some of the delicate work we do here.

Maybe the Adeptus Mechanicus are doing something right.

But I'll hold off on the flying skull servants. Mhmm no thank you.

You'd be surprised how often "just shoot it into the sun" would not only NOT work, but make things worse by several orders of magnitude, when it comes to containing anomalies.

It's basically a coin toss between "you made the anomaly mad" and "you made the sun mad".

Trading Card Game idea:
In future, scientists discover that there are actually tiny subatomic little creatures. They capture and enbiggen these creatures to the size of dogs and have them playfully battle.

Instead of elemental typing, we use up, down, strange, charm, bottom, and top.

🎶"If I were not in the SCP,
Something else I'd like to be.
If I were not in the SCP,
A window-cleaner, me!
With a rub-a-dub-dub and a scrub-a-dub-dub,
And a rub-a-dub all day long.
With a rub-a-dub-dub and a scrub-a-dub-dub,
I'd sing this merry song!"🎶

Incredibly weird vibes in the lab today... Well every day since we got it back.

We still don't know if it was physically displaced or there was some other reason no one could find it.

But ever since it got back, it feels off.

An .AIC running in one of these little critters would be adorable

I'll take 12.
He is complete! May I present my son, Conch, in all his adorable beeping glory.

The legs are fully articulated, and both hatches in the front open for his flashlight and LCD monitor.

His little carrying handle even works!

Kit will be up on Thingiverse next week.

Fell asleep in my office last night, and abruptly learned when the facility alarm tests are scheduled.
I must have looked like a madman tearing out of my office, bleary-eyed and half-awake before I got a clue.

It has been a long two weeks, but I'm back.
My lab had a bit of an... Unforseen hiatus here at Site-15.

And by that, I don't mean that the entire lab staff got vacation time.

We uh... We kind of lost the lab itself.
It's back now though.

"Thank you for your consideration" is such a gotcha way to end an email or memo.

If they've read that far already, you won. You tricked them into considering, and now you're smugly rubbing it in. And there's nothing they can do.

"...I mean, sure. It's POSSIBLE that there's a universe where orienting the toilet paper under isn't completely idiotic.

...

Well then why don't we find it and you can go live there? You'd be a deity to those heathens, Osmand.
And turn the damn rec-"

Was doing a quick refresher on several anomalies we have here and at a few sister-sites.

It occurred to me that there are a LOT more of them that you can eat than I would expect.

Like, having one edible paranatural object or entity would be insane, but there's like ten.

It feels like it's been 2 years but we've only just hit August.

The amount of new intake and anomalies pending designation has started to grind almost all lab work to a halt.

I haven't seen a movie in theaters in... Like a year?

I'm all for calling the shitty "AI" or bots clankers.

But you may encounter some confusion, as it's also a less-common term used to refer to members of the Cogwork Orthodox Church.

Noisy rust buckets that they are...

Every couple of days I'm reminded that the inside of a lab is the place I am meant to be.

I was on the couch in the break room yesterday and got a cramp in my leg just from sitting there.

I wouldn't survive in the wild.

Besides, there's enough danger contained here too.

Brain is fried.
Dr Osmand was at the top of his bullshit game today and I have zero idea if the nonsense he was yammering about was cognitohazardous or not because I can't stop replaying that conversation in my head

I'm inches away from forging a site transfer request with Osmand's name on it.

If you tag anything with "AIart" or "midjourney" or whatever, it's an instant block.

There's no such thing as an "AI artist" and you are a pathetic waste.

Pick up a fucking pencil.

Sometimes I get in my own head thinking about my own body.

Like, "me" is just a little clump of pink spaghetti piloting a flesh mecha that I can never leave.

Or how if I wore a skeleton costume, I'd be a skin Oreo.

Popped open a fresh bag of tortilla chips to dip in my cottage cheese.

Then realized I had no more chip clips available. So I asked the nice machine that lives 4 feet from my desk and 15 minutes later I had a chip clip to keep my chips fresh.

3d printing is so cool.

Abiotic Factor is finally out of EA, and overall, I still really enjoy the game.

Sure, I might get uncomfortable flashbacks to a few of the breaches here at Site-15.... Especially during the Security Wing section...

But it's great and you should have a look!

I just checked and the techs assured me that there is no evidence of any data cross-contamination between our database and possible LLM scrapeable sources.

"100% air gapped as per protocol" was the phrase.
"SCPs that got hoovered up and regurgitated by chatbots end up giving tech executives schizophrenia" is perhaps fittingly a very SCP thing to happen

Was looking into some other #ttrpg systems for fun, and stumbled on Lancer.

I was a little dismayed to find their whole "Eldritch math God Ra" arc was... Well it was basically ripped whole-cloth from an actual breach at Site-15.

Except we did our job and got the good ending.

Normalize wearing lab coats in public. They're light, breathable, water and stain resistant, and they cut a mean figure.

Got exceptionally high over the weekend and ended up watching the Speed Racer movie in an utter trance.

Just an absolutely insane movie. Definitely made my evening.

Also I was off the clock on PTO, so no one better complain about how "I'm a senior researcher and I have to set an example blah blah"
