Bryn (gnome cleric of Oghma) was my first D&D character. It’s a trope that we work through trauma with our PCs, but she was the one I played as I was coming out to society as nonbinary while simultaneously leaving a controlling religious environment.

I’m the notetaker at the TTRPG tables I’m involved with, and I’ve written most of our stories up and posted them online (with permission). Here’s a thread of links if you’re so inclined!

last night our outdoor AC unit - the one that management just replaced a few weeks ago - stopped working. I did all troubleshooting I could with no success, so I submitted a maintenance ticket. Fingers crossed they can get it handled today.

It’s Sunday afternoon and it’s been a relaxing day and as you might’ve guessed from the title I’m watching some movies in the Fast and Furious franchise. I almost went with “is that lead in your pipes or are you just happy to see me” as a title, but let’s enjoy some drinks and we’ll chat about the week and then you can tell me which title you prefer.

My municipality is conducting a survey of water pipes and we got a letter saying “we can’t determine if the pipes connecting your residence to the water main are lead or not, so we’ve classified them as ‘unknown material’ - have a great day”
not sure how concerned I should be . . .

Got a couple dozen crows flying in front of a rainbow, best one was when it was faint, so really had to edit. Not sure if I missed the mark.

In tribute to the last penny coming off the press today in the US, here’s one of the most unique pressed pennies in my collection. It reads “Wallace is out so let’s stick with Nixon in 1972 he ain’t so bad” and is pressed on a 1972 penny from the Denver mint.

this week I’ve been missing friends I want to talk to but they aren’t here because of disease and illness and drugs and negligent drivers and things are going great for me and I just really wish all my friends were here to share it with me because they believed in me even when I didn’t

I am making burgers and fries and then I will sit down to watch The Fantastic Mr Fox as the temperatures here have gone from mid-sixties and a dropping close to thirty. I’ve got the windows open to enjoy the chill and the heater set to keep things from freezing “just in case”

mental whiplash when I went to listen to a podcast about “how conversion therapy doesn’t work” and the automated pre-show ad placed there by the overall podcast host/network (and not the podcast or its hosts) was for the HP audiobook on Audible
