Wandering Adventure Party

@pup_hime@toot.cat The reality. It burns.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus was a better game than TNO or TOB. Whoever wrote the game though definitely struggles to really rationalize or setup the scenes they have in their head, so in all 3 games stuff just kinda happens.

This game is also more overtly political than the other games. I kinda wish they went harder, but it is just a shooter. The humor is a little off brand but whatever.

The whole Nazi body thing is kinda weird. Too much spoiler to go into it but it’s just treated strangely.

The Youngblood is kinda derided so I am not going to play that one. That and I am burned out on silly wolfenstein writing.

I kinda think a lot of people have the childhood mentality that pets are just things you have to feed and clean since mom and dad took care of all the pay and pain parts.

I want to tell someone that they probably shouldn’t be taking on a pet when they struggle to pay rent, but it’s their life. ​​ I just know they’re going to go into massive credit card debt or have put it down the first time it gets legitimately sick, and that doesn’t seem right.

Went to a meeting of game masters yesterday. I am reminded that GMs can be some of the most annoying people on earth. This probably includes me.

But a couple just could not yield the floor or attention. Like holy shit guys. One person there was entirely new to the game and I felt bad for him because he didn’t have the experience to just bully into the conversation when he needed to.

@ielenia@ck.catwithaclari.net like, what even is lunch?

A plan is something I have once in a while...

The tension of the fediverse is that it's various communities of outsiders with a big tech-guy encampment built on top.

If you're going to report someone, just do it, don't DM the person involved. That's just you getting off on intimidation and perceived power, which is not a good look for you.

At least have the the spine to call someone out in public, where you can both be judged.

@ielenia@ck.catwithaclari.net Morning. ​​

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt @yosh@toot.yosh.is Not specifically research, but a lot of Lean Manufacturing ideologies use the same principle and that's where I assume this comes from. For factories it operates under the same idea - a manufacturing line which is run under full capacity all the time has no slack in its budget to handle routine maintenance, floor rearrangements, slowdowns, or mistakes.

There's a lesson here I've been trying to beat into some of my managers heads for decades at this point...

I do not NEED the desktop printing press.

But I do want it.

@ielenia@ck.catwithaclari.net welcome to the crenellations of a new day. Best of luck out there.

I don’t need you to be such a strong individual that you don’t care about the judgement of others.

What I do need is for you to be secure enough to realize that someone doing or thinking something different than you is not an inherent attack on your own conclusion.

Referring to oneself in the third person can be strangely comfortable, but the comfort is probably not an healthy response.

@mikoto@urusai.social today’s weather report is overcast with a mildly haunting sunset…

@askDNA@urusai.social Understandable. I hope next week is better for you.

@Kingu@sakurajima.moe more like “got a chef named after him”

@askDNA@urusai.social I thought getting ink on your hands was just a part of using fountain pens.
