So... it seems I own 51 RPGs (excluding their editions), played 14, and GMed 16.
Kind of disappointed about the 14 played in the past 40 years.

I've been told walking releases dopamine, which reduces gloominess and stress.
Didn't work.
Still depressed, still stressed.
Always gloomy.

I tend to worry about everything that can (and will, obviously) go wrong, and how (obviously) I will annoy and rile up people.
In Dutch, we talk about seeing bears in the road, and usually, I'm not even sure there is a road, only bears.
So... all plans are cancelled for today #frustrated

Recently, an American asked how to store a Dutch flag properly to be able to fly it respectably at a later date, and the Dutch replies were hilarious.
Basically, the Dutch flag is an ordinary piece of cloth, not a holy relic.
Mostly used to signify soccer games, graduating, or royal birthdays

I think that calling myself Jan Hendriks the Grandiose might be a good English companion to Jan Hendriks the Geweldenaar, instead The Glorious or The Goat.

Phrase of the Day is "Poop on a stick".
Today, I send some poop on a stick to voluntary, free, colon cancer test, which everyone on the Netherlands receives at 55 and then every 3 years.
Some years ago, someone close to me was diagnosed at an early stage and is now cancer free.

Lesson of the Day: If you do something and would like me there, invite me, or I will not be there
Don't assume I will know I'm welcome, don't rely on others to tell me I'm surely invited, don't expect me to ask if you forgot to invite me.
Invite me, or miss me.

In 2008 someone was denied a permit to remodel their house by the country he would be emigrating to.
In 2018 someone swapped the front door and a window to prevent themselves from emigrating to another country.

To clarify, I am told my great aunt during WW2 was a member of the NSB (Dutch nazis) and married a wehrmacht soldier.
(And moved to Amsterdam...)
After the war, they were told to leave the country, and they settled in Munich.

I went up to Deventer today. Famed for it's huge outside bookfair, and for its bridge (the one used in A Bridge Too Far).
I went to play Memoir'44 in it's library. Helped out, lurked a bit, and got roped into an Overlord scenario.
I think my great aunt's ghost helped me win the German side
