I nearly fell asleep on my back in the half-bare/half-cluttered-af-with-shit-we-ain't-keeping living room last night playing my bass and that feels like a very apt description of my brain the last few weeks

Moving back to the US in August. Last few months have been draining in all the job hunting, but I think it's time to head back. With better internet I'll be able to stream again, play more disc golf, play more music with people, and just find more communities.

My family dog passed a few weeks ago after a good long life Yesterday I fired up #seaoftheives for the first time in a few years, had the itch to sail I'd remembered I had a dog in the game, but forgot that they had names Turns out Sabelle gets to keep sailing the high seas Love you, goober ❤

It took years (!) by my nearly full rebuild of COMP/CON, the Lancer companion app, is complete. It is, I think, a lot better in every respect. Please give it a try, it's something I've worked extremely hard on.

So people don't eat really on public transport in Japan. Pretty big no no. Not immediate jailtime, but you really just don't see it I'm currently sitting next to someone who is eating a bag of chips and its aggravating tf out of me Not because I've embraced the rules I just want some <.<

After the newest trailer, I am further convinced that while this isn't the Tron movie I would have asked for, I'm not so certain anymore that it is a Tron movie I will blatantly dislike I just hope that NIN (brilliant as they are) will be able to stand with Daft Punk's Legacy OST

NakeyJakey's new CS video is a phenomenal peek at the toxicity that often comes with the healthy practice of pushing yourself. Somehow in the name of competition it feels that so many have forgotten that games are meant to be fun By all means, push, reach, grind- but say gg and remember the human

I've got some extra #worldbuilding time for #d&d this week and it's always so much easier to come up with a mythology, history, founding legend, climate, culture, demographic, and language for an entire region than it is to, you know come up with stuff for the actual region your players *live* in 🙃

Doing #d&d prep the other night and needed to make a decent number of npc students for the adventuring university setting I run. They needed personalities, and time was a factor. I wanted to use dice tables, but didn't have any on hand for what I needed So I used #AI for the first *real* time 1/5

Learning a new TTRPG So my night was spent talking to myself for 3 hours as I moved little pieces of plastic on a dry-erase battlemat, frantically Ctrl+F'd keywords, and laughed maniacally as my confidence to run said game went up at the simple cost of sanity Drink deep, and descend. #lancerrpg

Hey #dnd folks, what's the most interesting warlock-pact related detail you've either played or had at the table? In one of my recent games my party met a human with a devil sister- as one of their parent's warlock pact included raising a child of the contracting power as their own.
