What the hell hit it, a rail gun? Lol that was awesome.

Now that everything is digital and so rigidly formatted and kept in databases we really lost the ability to have fun in a lot of ways.

But I would love to see the support ticket for the central passport database that reads "someone have a cat a passport and now all our systems are offline because no one ever accounted for this while we were writing the things."

It reminds me of the time I had to spend a week updating database tables to utf8 after someone started putting emojis into their log messages...

Labels aren't worth worrying about. You are you. That is enough.

I would talk to her, just share your vibes and concerns, and say be careful. Also remind her you are always there for her if she needs anything.

A little advice is good if it's genuine and the communication is between equals.

I mean.. the outlet is very, very regular pressure. Just need a barometer to know what the pressure is.

I'm pushing numbers like that. And I have to say, when I really stop and think about it, my life just keeps getting better. I keep getting better. My mind is better. My attitude is better.

I think about death a lot, but I also think about life a lot. Its easy to think back and say "if only I could go back" forgetting that who you are now and who you were then are completely different. We wish we had more time to be young and wise, but usually you have to pick one out the other.

And name it Zulu Time because it sounds cool.

They seemed to like it! It only lasted the first half of the first session. It was fun without dragging on.

So far my best campaign start was I told the group: Look, until I say so, everything you try works. No rolls. Your bad asses. Something will go wrong at some point, but it's imposable for you to die until this opening is over.

They proceed to pull off an amazing heist where they had to break in and tamper with some evidence. Just add they do their NPC teammates betray them, set off a chain reaction that kills a bunch of civilians, and leave them to take the blame. The law is on their trail, they are running out of friends, and finally they dive out of a high rise building and land in a trash heap. Then the campaign starts.

Bun is Batman.

Yeah we tried that also https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_cheese

Starting was both very hard and very easy. I had help from my partner, but when they would suggest things I would get defensive, even offended sometimes. I remember feeling hurt that they were pushing my problems onto someone else instead of helping me. In retrospect it was how they could help me, but at the time everything was so twisted up.

Eventually I just went along with things. Once I stopped fighting it, everything was easy. Because of weird insurance stuff I needed a referral before I could see someone. I didn't have a regular doctor. We just walked into an urgent care and said "I'm depressed and I need a referral to a psychologist." Within half an hour we had what we needed, paid our copay, and left. We set up an appointment with the doctor and just showed up together. Thankfully the hill I had to climb was of my own making. It usually is.

Once I was okay with going, everything was painless and quick from there. Things started improving, I started feeling things getting better, it was easier to stick with it.
