A copy of the novel "Yumi and the Nightmare Painter" on top of a copy of "The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England", both in trade paper size and both written by Brandon Sanderson.
It's been a while since I bought some stuff from one of my favorite authors, Brandon Sanderson. Still have the signed copies of "Mistborn" and "Elantris" from my B&N employment days, too!

One more week until I get a long-awaited procedure. Then another few weeks until I get a semblance of my life back.
I'm nervous, but excited for what's to come. Maybe more time to stream, more hours open for TTRPG peeps...more open time to hang with IRL friends! π©΅
Thanks, and same for you from me.

My eyes refused to focus on the slashes. So I thought your character's name was "Joyce Rory Susan". π
16.10.2025 20:57 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I appreciate the kind words, my dude. Again, I'm OK. Just had some thoughts that begged to be put to text form.
I also enjoy your company, whether online or in-person. You and Aka both! π
Look, I don't know why I'm posting this. I just know that I get (rightfully) accused of bottling my thoughts up. And I had thoughts, so I thought I'd commit them to the written form.
Ergo, this post string.
If you read this far...thanks. I'm good. Honest. Just lost in thought.
I love my family, and I love my friends.
I hate not having the time or energy for them.
And when I'm around them, I don't like being a burden (even if they say I'm not...I feel like one nonetheless).
It takes a toll, this cycle.
When I'm at work, I want to cry, but I try to power through.
When I'm at dialysis, I want to cry, but I put on a brave front.
When I'm home, I'm usually too tired to be sad. By the weekend, I'm just...beaten down.
And then, it's Monday again...
There are days when I want nothing more than to be around everyone I love.
And there are days when I don't want to burden anyone...including my other half.
It's a conundrum. I crave people, yet I feel like a weight on them when I'm around.
I'll be open and honest.
Sometimes, I hate myself and the conditions that have hit me. I feel broken and inferior.
Sometimes, I remember what I survived and I feel strong.
The bad days are mentally rough, albeit temporary. The good days feel uplifting, but equally fleeting.
Guys, we're getting MAWWIED! π
27.09.2025 03:55 β π 5 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Finally, catch @danyansenpai.bsky.social
on either the NVU show or any of his other podcasts (like "Save Point Sessions") anywhere you regularly catch your podcasts!
Whew...that was a lot. We'll see you again, Rangers! π»π
Of course, you can also find LightenRoSE on
@gmhina.bsky.social's channel every Saturday @ 4pm PT playing D&D in the Wyvern's Mark campaign. And
@danyansenpai.bsky.social
on both WM and every Wednesday on the same channel playing New Visions University, an Apocalypse Keys campaign. #evilhat
Also, if you watched the stream and loved our run-through of #Ravenswatch, be sure to pick it up! It's 50% off on Steam right now, and worth every penny (not endorsed or supported by the IP owners...just love the game).
22.09.2025 02:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0That...was...chaos! AND I LOVED IT!
Thanks again to Denyzn, LightenRoSE and @danyansenpai.bsky.social
for an absolute riot of a game stream session! Jackbox, Overcooked 2 and Ravenswatch (which we couldn't get enough of).
Be sure to follow them all!
#twitch
Today. 1pm PT. There will be a stream!
Plus, Denyzn, LightenRoSE and @danyansenpai.bsky.social will be there!
It's an impromptu (mostly) Batch Party! Be sure to join us!

Work sprung a surprise wedding party for @gmhina.bsky.social and me yesterday, and I had to push my dialysis to noon today. So no stream. But there may be one tomorrow. Details incoming if it happens!
20.09.2025 17:26 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Long day today. Work, dialysis, then a CPAP titration that's combined with an on-site sleep study.
I'll probably only be home for about an hour. Then not again until tomorrow morning. π΅
All in the name of better health. I've gotta remember that...
TIL about the existence of a Dunkelzahn/Mountainshadow plush. π #shadowrun #earthdawn

The Stormlight by Thorum in its ring box. A hammered black ring with a rose gold inlay. The hammered surface shows glints of silvery metal ridges, giving the ring an overall thunder-and-lightning motif. Inside the top of the ring box is the Thorum logo in gold.
Change of plans.
No, not the wedding. The ring.
The #Stormlight by #Thorum. Inspired by the Brandon Sanderson saga of the same name ("The Stormlight Archive"). And my new wedding ring!
It's absolutely exquisite. Thanks to the folks at Thorum for this awesome piece! ππ©π
