For another 2¢ from me, there are a lot of paid DMs out there if you can swing the bill.
After turning in my own DM cloak, I decided to jump into a beginner friendly PF2e game and met a ton of friends. Also became good friends with the GM there and they don’t have our group pay any longer. It’s just friends playing for fun now.
Not to say that will surely happen, but it’s a great way to at least expand the social circle if you want to work your way toward free games some day ahha
I have a condition that gives me brain fog all day everyday. Couple that with untreated ADHD and oh my god my life is a nightmare.
But it’s so misunderstood, so over the last year I’ve tanked at work and there’s nothing I can do but be berated about it because I can’t prove it or get a doctor’s note. There’s nothing.
Brain fog is no fucking joke
I started skiing when I was very young and I was always bad at it. Never really improved, but golly I was really good at super pie-ing my way down difficult stuff.
I switched to snowboarding and it just clicked for me. It felt so much better and made way more sense.
Not to say it’s easy, but give it a try. You might really enjoy yourself.
On a side note, I’ve since learned that I just suck at motion that has me with my feet facing forward. I can’t roller skate or ice skate to save my life, but long boarding or skate boarding are find. I’m a little shaky on scopters, but it’s not as bad as skates
This is really cool. Are you taking the photographs yourself? Are you using a GIS program? Running Q or something?
Clouds!
And other weather phenomena, of course.
I just think they’re fantastic and they change so often and tell us so much
I know it’s not for everyone, but I play online weekly-biweekly and it’s great.
Very excited that the Draw Steel VTT just dropped
Make sure your dog knows they’re loved and wanted. The calmness that helps provide helps a lot when you’re training.
Also please socialize your dog. Dog parks can be very scary for a puppy, so it’s important to try to ease into the socializing. Maybe by other puppy meet ups or if you have friends with dogs.
Not all of these companies pay hourly. Check the contracts and see if you can ask a worker who actually works there.
My ex got duped into one of these for roof repairs, but it was a commission only job that sounded great on paper but was absolutely awful
This looks so familiar. Is this from a children’s book?
Super Bunny Man and Heave Ho for multiplayer games. Single player is doable, but multiplayer is where the laughter really hits.
It’s a lot of really random stuff. I go through a few sites now and again instead of doom scrolling and I always seem to find at least one really interesting or fun thing.
A lot of the personal project sites and just weird stuff feels like the old internet and it makes me happy
I’m in the same boat. I have a medium -big dog and I’ve had him for a third of my life. He is my most precious friend and I absolutely treasure him.
But I’m never getting another dog. Not because he’s going to break my heart when he leaves, but because of how much work and money goes into owning a dog.
The movie that came out semi recently was also really goddamn good
I was doing backcountry snowboarding on a mountain I grew up near. It’s not anywhere near an established ski resort so there’s no mapped out sections or any safety measures. I was with a group and we were mostly sticking together, but I didn’t want to wait for them to smoke a cigarette so I just went ahead.
The ride itself was a ton of fun and probably the craziest line I’ve ever hit. I bombed it out of the bottom because I could see there was a big flat section coming and I didn’t want to walk through the snow to get out. I rode as long and far as I could, but eventually stopped as I didn’t have enough speed. I was in the middle of a big clearing and didn’t see really any other tracks, but it was late spring and where I was was pretty icy. So I unstrapped and stepped off of my board, picked it up, and started walking toward our meeting spot.
Apparently the clearing I was in was not so much just a nice meadow. Nope, it was a pond. I don’t know how many steps I took before I just fell straight through the top layer. Now I don’t know if the water had just backed up there from an ice floe and then maybe the dam melted and it all went away, but what I do know is that I landed with my armpits on my board and I was dangling.
Thankfully I was a strong little shit, so I pulled myself right up and was able to spread my weight out using my board and otherwise. But when I looked into the hole I had made, it was like fifteen feet straight down to a bunch of big rocks. Had I fallen in, I have no idea if anyone would have been able to find me.
I wasn’t too scared then, but it hits me now and again how utterly close to death I was just then. Terrifying.
Come do it yourself, you coward.
I will! Thank you!
Housecat please. I think I’ve really upped my goodness in this life and can hopefully have a calm, warm, cozy environment to exist in next time.
I think something like My Hero Academia and The Office would be pretty funny.
Show me the really mundane side of superheroes. The “Jenna, please file these by tomorrow” but Jenna is 12’ tall. I think Dispatch comes close, but I want a whole ridiculous show. No heroics. Or even an isekai but in an office or normal job. Some mega powerful reincarnated whoever just needs to make some money.
Feels like that’d be funny.
Kinda wild how relatively boring a map is when there’s no evident tectonics
That’s really cool! What a neat project!
Certainly not to this degree at all, but I do love having a satellite or aerial view to just look around my area. I recently found there’s sprint boat races on a small man made course nearby and I’m excited to go check it out!
Good luck on your future endeavors and I hope you find some more neat stuff :)
