Brave Little Hitachi Wand

Seems better in every way tbh

I never get tired of the map of Laramidia. I really was born in the wrong generation. I should have been an ankylosaur

I like this better. I’m not sure if it’s 100% true - hard to know what a thought actually is, when you get super specific - but I like that it’s kinder.

I had something like that with my last group. I was the guy who was always playing someone crazy to die for some reason or another, but when it came my time to DM I’d do way too much worldbuilding and make everything insane and lore driven. I still haven’t found a new group after moving far away, I miss it.

I would understand the concomitant urge to act like you’re an Indestructible Demigod of Finding Out, but the wisdom of my years are telling me that you need to maybe have a heart to heart with the DM, and explain how the stakes don’t feel real if you’re always one bad roll away from a Deus Ex Machina. Tell them that they should feel free to let fate take its toll, that you accept the risk, and that you will do your level best to have any accidental deaths mean something and contribute to the story.

Me at the table: fuck the challenge rating, let’s do this shit!

… I’m not dead? Well that was boring.

Or as my daffy kid calls it, “choglet”. Future Nobel contender, there.

Multi billion dollar software to recreate a scene that would cost about $600 to do for real… And when then it’d be still barely worth six seconds of your time. At least Doopiidoo is doing shit that never would have existed otherwise.

I only read this thread to make sure someone was right. Thank you

I too passed the self-imposed ritual. It has not made me happy, but it helped me understand why I wasn’t.

You got me. Sonofabitch.

Biting wit used to not be so rare, it’s true. If you want any you’ll have to come back later, I’m taking the high road just now.

Not all dopamine is created equal. Staring at your phone, bickering, empty calories, overeating, drinking, trolling on the internet, porn - all garbage dopamine sources, can feel good very briefly and will lead quickly to downward spirals.

You want to be seeking positive sources of dopamine that relate to an overarching life mission. ADHD is a life of extremes, but I believe you can learn to choose extreme positives.

If you don’t get it, I’m genuinely envious. Anger and using wit cruelly can be addictive

Many laughs
