While I don't really play Starfinder...
I would hazard the guess that Solarians are pretty much as every other class.
That they are what you make of them.So, in a way neither of you are really wrong here, I guess?
Have you considered switching to politics.
Impeccable fence sitting!
Edit: Dang it, now I'm going to get splinters.

Why NobodysHome Doesn't Do Plumbing:
So a grand total of maybe $50 spent (2 snakes and two bottles of liquid drain opener), maybe two hours, and it's time to just bring in a pro, who will give me a baleful look, turn on the motorized snake, and solve my issue in under 10 minutes.
*SIGH*.

The bathtub drain was running really slowly, which, with three people with long hair in the family, just isn't a surprise
I left Liquid Plumbr in the drain for the day. Of course, rather than clearing the clog, this congealed it into a solid, concrete-like mass in my drain
I tried the old, "Break up the clog with a plunger" trick, and that only further encouraged it
I bought a snake. It was too big for the drain
I bought a second snake. It butted its head against the clog a few times, whimpered, and slunk away

I have an anti hair snake that works wonders. Pm me your number and I'll send a pic.
No. It is not that kind of snake.
Also, get a tub shroom.

I have a steel mesh strainer for the drain, and one a month I clean it out with a tool that looks like a screwdriver with a curved miniature crowbar looking thing on the end instead of a standard screwdriver head. No idea what you're supposed to use it for, but that's what it's good for.
EDIT: I googled it. Apparently it's a "tack puller". No idea how I acquired it.

Yeeeeeaaaaaah. I have a plastic cover over my tub drain to catch hair and other debris for this exact reason. I clean it out with a bit of TP each day to get rid of the general hair, etc. buildup, and toss it in with the laundry for a few rounds in the washer to clean up the soap and grime gunk that builds up inside over the week. Works wonders.

On a more serious note, I have doubts about Amazon's promise for 2-day delivery on the item I ordered this morning. It promised that I will receive the item on Monday, still says that in fact, and yet it also says that it hasn't shipped yet. Since I really doubt that it will be picked up on Sunday, I have little hope that it will get to me on Monday.

Let's all take a moment and be thankful that sweat is (typically) clear.
(I know that there is a condition that can cause colored sweat. And that some animals, like hippos, have colored sweat. But let's stick with normal human biology for the moment.)
It always bugs me when animators draw sweat as slightly yellow colored. so gross.

Vidmaster7 |

Oh ok Well that throws off my whole rhythm.
Also Gran It is possible that your amazon item is shipped but they didn't update the program too. Dominoes online thing does that to me it will say baking but then they will show up and give me the pizza. Igther they didn't update or they have discovered time travel.

I hate that mentality. I always plan to get places at least 15 minutes early. I can't stand it when people are late, unless they call/text/whatever to let you know they are running late and give an updated ETA. It's one of the big differences between my brother and I. He has no problem being late, even more than 30 minutes without bothering to tell anyone. I once pissed him off because we were supposed to meet for dinner at 7. When he hadn't showed by 7:15, I tried texting him and he didn't reply. So at 7:30 I called him. He didn't answer so I left a voicemail. At 7:40, I decided to leave. He then showed up at 7:45, found I wasn't there, and was pissed off at me for leaving.

Maybe, but that still isn't a great endorsement of their tracking service.
I've had similar issues with pizza places before, only once or twice, but never with Dominos. Of course that's probably because I can't stand their pizza so I don't order from them.

Your brother reminds me of my mom.
She once invited me and my GF over for food and wasn't their... at her home... She went somewhere to get something and showed up late getting back. Keep in mind I knew she was going to be late so I already took my time to leave. So we were just standing outside waiting for her, and no she did not have a good reason for it.

The absolute worst instance I can remember with his tardiness was ridiculous. He (and his wife, now ex, and kids) were coming to visit me and our folks (I was still in high school at the time). He lived about a 3 hour drive away, and promised to be there at 6:30 for dinner. My mom planned on them actually showing up at 7. Well, 7 came and went with no sign of them. Then 7:30, and we went ahead and ate. Then 8:00 passed. My brother didn't have a cell phone, so we couldn't call and ask where they were. When 9:00 passed, my mom was getting scared that they had been in an accident or something, and was asking my dad if we should call the police. Finally, at almost 10:00, my brother called. They were still at home, and were just about to get in the car. So, yeah. Three and a half hours after you were supposed to be here, you call to say that you're about to head out on a three hour drive. Thanks for that.

They hadn't even left yet?!? WTF? Does he have kids? Like I wouldn't even bother coming at that point. Alright your brother wins. My mom is perpetually late for everything but shes not leave 3 hours after she was suppose to be there late.
I think they had two kids at that point. Maybe just one. And they were coming for the weekend.
He just didn't understand why we are annoyed with him.

Your brother really puts being late to an art form. My BF isn't too punctual himself but at least he keeps me updated on delays. Maybe his wife left him because he was constantly late for things?

Yeah my mom always feigns ignorance when I act upset with her about that as well.

I don't think I'd call it art. I'd call it being an a#*+*~$ who can't be bothered to show up when he says he will. Oddly, he is never late to work. And he and his ex broke up for reasons that had nothing to do with being late. There were a lot of...issues...in that divorce.

Vidmaster7 |

I don't have a basement.
And usually with family there's a certain culture in the family. So if your family is punctual, usually every member should be?
well the thing about that is behavior learned from parent typically always go one of two ways behavior copying the parent or behavior doing the opposite of the parent. I'm virtually never late for anything myself.
