Motivational message of the day! Yep. Everything is my fault... everything is always my fault.

I've been in this station for THREE DAYS and this guy just won't stop talking to me...
I'm sure he's trying to tell me something important but I've got to tell you, I've zoned out hours ago!

It must be a little awkward when you bump into your own clone. I mean, what do you even talk about? What's the accepted protocol here?

Nice cone you got there Fella! And I'm glad to see you're wearing the correct safety equipment. Wouldn't want a skimmer to drop a panel on your head.

You know when you wake up and you're really not sure what you got up to the previous night, but have a sneaking suspicion that you may not have made the best decisions..

Well it appears that I've jumped into a new system... time to get the scanner out and see what I can find. With luck there will be some sentient lifeforms... and you never know, maybe they'll be my friend?
