Related, I need to spend an hour a day, bite sized chunks, to work on clearing and tidying my hoards of “stuff” in the office and basement. Maybe more at a time if I don’t get too frustrated being waist deep in it.

Found my misplaced stash of dice, including the leather rolling tray and a set of metal dice. _thunk_ Ready to rumble in some rules-lite online rpg games (OSR) that do not require a complicated vtt to interpret the rolls against complicated character sheets (D&D 5.5e)

 In this animated scene, a man stands on a balcony overlooking a cityscape. He's dressed casually in a blue shirt and jeans, holding a cup of coffee. His gaze is directed towards the viewer, suggesting he might be addressing them. The balcony is adorned with potted plants, adding a touch of greenery to the urban setting. In the background, a large screen displays an image of a spaceship, hinting at a futuristic theme or narrative.

I loved the murder bot series, but I think it’s all tapped out. The last book was kinda meh. (This quote is from somewhere in the first few books I think.) wandering.shop/@murderbotbot/117424426857838320

Incompetent Robot Describes Image : 

 The image is a split-screen comparison of two scenes from an animated show. In the left scene, a man and a child are seated on a bench; the man holds a book, while the child looks at him with interest. The right scene shows the same characters in a different setting, now standing amidst futuristic architecture. The man still holds the book, but the child's expression has changed to one of concern or worry.
