Happy birthday to the composer of the theme music to the nonexistent 70s private detective TV series “Chuck Taggart, Private Eye!”
That’s one hell of a story. I suppose it’s about time I told it…

I have learned an obscene amount about HVAC systems in the past 48 hours. I feel like I'm cramming for an exam, but instead of a test, I get to give someone several thousand dollars to make me stop sweating.

Last night, sat down on the couch with ice cream to watch this week's Last of Us episode. Realized it was birthday flashback time. Was suddenly very glad I had ice cream because I knew I'd be waking up with a headache from crying for a solid hour. The museum and "Future Days" get me every time.

If I had a nickel for every time I've had to deescalate a dude, eeeeeespecially male larpers, I have no idea how much money I'd have because I have dyscalculia and can't math that high. Bet it could probably buy me dinner.

Goblin on the right, the party is just going to kill and move on. Goblin on the left, the party is going to ask their name and try to adopt them. I can 1000% guarantee this.

Here’s an actual example - if I described a goblin guard, all alone outside the tower, and then provided a handout to illustrate them. Which of these images do you imagine is going to elicit a more engaged response?

Last night I dreamt a political debate game show where the contestants pretended to be running for an office and appearing at a live debate. Only they couldn't have any policy positions of their own.
