Window glazier techs are here to replace a cracked window. I just moved a couch to give them access that hadn't been moved in 12 years, 3 kids, 2 cats, and 1 dog... lots of stuff back there.

It's funny. The trope is that immortals become bored with life because they've seen it all before. The reality is that people yearn for a pause because they can't handle life's constant change.
I went to BED. I did my morning cardio. It's STILL going!

Agreed, a favorite :)

After successfully escaping the weird alien telepaths, we finally get some much needed R&R at the seediest bar we can find on planet Vesta. Not in here for more than five clicks and already some shapechanger is trying to pickpocket us with--let's face it--some gross tendrils.

Great game! I played Invictus, a Vicious Paladin who Abides in Bone. (Sorta a bone golem raised years ago by @shannagermain.bsky.social 's Necromancer in a fluke reanimation, skinning the Abides in Stone focus.)

The pros of not reading off a script include a more authentic presentation. The cons include, as I demonstrate here, sometimes crafting sentences that make no goddamn sense :)

Today I can pull this off. Going forward, long-term? We shall see--I do like my podcasts constantly whispering into my sound-canceling earbuds... :)
My goal is to cultivate this concept today:
Boredom is underappreciated serenity.
