I would kill for this

I have a series X, Ps5 and switch 2 but I use deck with standard steam os. Being able to play Balatro, Hades 2 or more recently ballxpit while sitting in bed is all I want. If I had the desire to play some newer AAA I'd play it on another console anyway and I imagine I'm not alone in that usage.

There's a component of people being online, especially on this app where when they see a post they believe it's their duty to both respond and turn it into a deeper conversation. How much sugar is in the ketchup is only relevant to your taste and how much you eat. You don't know shit.

Everyone who would call into my show

It's easy to get lost in life. When my kids were young I made a decision that no one made for me: if they asked to play, no matter what was happening I would play with them. I struggled at times, while my marriage and job fell apart. But I did my best not to let them see it.

It's not something I have ever taken for granted. Things in this life are never in statis. I do not live with regret and I am always looking forward but there are snapshots in time I hold close and wish I could revisit. That doesn't exist so I have to not take for granted these moments now.

I think that unfortunate circumstances have made my relationships with my children deepen even further while they got older and it's something that I'm really proud of. Two wildly independent, creative and absolutely dry to the bone people. I am surprised I have had the opportunity to see them grow.

I'm sure it's been done but "Misremembered wrestling history" with these kinds of comments is a great gimmick

On one hand it's horrible. On the other? Hilarious.

I can power through if I have to but I know myself well enough to know how and when to do that. I am always writing and to be clear I am not saying just dump everything because it becomes boring. But also, if you want to commit to something try to make it something you want to commit too.

I've never had writer's block mostly because I don't force myself to write things I don't want to. That doesn't mean I can't come back to something or I always dump it out. There are things I've built for years and then finished. Parts of Wrodger Wrestling were random ideas I hadn't used

I just had a really cool idea for something. I wrote it out. Started doing a very minimal speed outline and there's no hook. It has a beginning and a vague end point but no middle. I may come back to it at some point but it won't be tonight. My creative process usually dumps out a lot of these.

It happens to me a lot. I will have an idea and my brain requires fleshing it out. I don't always even write them down. The good ones tend to stick, rolling around in my head until I have to write it down. Other times I start writing it out and it's maybe an ok premise but just not really anything.
