Not to add to the commotion of what's going on, but I wanted to see if anyone's been able to actually get their hands on any of the snakes yet? You know, the ones that apparently aren't native to this area. Embera, I think they're called?

I saw a couple people recently mention trying to eat them. And I'm not a master chef or anything, but I'm not hopeless either. I thought that if someone was able to catch a few we could investigate matters to see if they're safe and edible. I'd be willing to assist however I can. But admit my primary focus is on attempting to find a way to prepare something everyone would be willing to eat.

It's not ideal, but it's a way to try and get by every day until we're able to obtain the orb.

[ Surprise, everything's still shit, guys. He's not here with any good news, but he is here to talk about something serious, so that means no fun little username, and no smile on his face either. There's too much going on, and too much weighing on his mind, for him to even muster the energy for that. ]

My name is James Kirk, to those of you who don't know me. Most of you have heard Dr. McCoy's broadcast about our current situation regarding the food supplies here, but if you haven't, I recommend that you do.

On that topic, I think it's of vital importance that we keep a close eye on what actual supplies we do have. To that effect, I've started keeping inventory of the rations we currently have, and I would greatly appreciate any assistance in maintaining this work of organizing and controlling the stock, as well as distributing it in as careful and rational a way possible.

Seen as none of us feel the effects of the malnutrition we're all facing, it's also of vital importance that we all have regular check ups, and I recommend that you all visit Dr. McCoy as frequently as you can. This is the only way we can all keep control of who's doing better and who's doing worse, and who might need rations more immediately.

[ There is a pause, and he goes on, shoulders squaring tightly. ]

I would also urge everyone here to not try and play hero or go for the whole self-sacrificial attitude. You're not being noble, and you're not helping anyone. The only thing you'll be doing is further worrying those closest to you, and speaking more pragmatically, the fewer of us are incapacitated, or dead, from starvation, the more of us are working on retrieving the orb and getting back to the station. The longer it takes us to do that, the much worse are our collective odds of survival.

With that in mind, I recommend you all keep an eye on the people you have closest to you. If you're looking after them, then they will be alright, even if they might not be the type to look after themselves.

[ Does he mean anyone in particular? Maybe, maybe not. But he's not here to argue. Again. ]

Anyone who's willing to lend a hand with this, please let me know. If you have any ideas on how we can improve our odds, feel free to share. You're also welcome to come by mine and Dr. McCoy's place. I'll be around.

[ Whether contacted through the network or getting visits to their house, Jim will be available for the rest of the day, having plunged head first into this task. ]
