Needing multiple streams of income to stay afloat is a societal failure not a personal one. You should be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle with one job. You are not lazy.

I have several friends who are varying combinations of smart, hot, and autistic.
My 'tism loves a good rant and/info dump. I absolutely LOVE to watch my friends go off on their smarty-pants bullshit until they run out of steam.
I occasionally trigger that shit on purpose and I make zero apologies.

Fully merc'd a PC last night.
Not unconscious. Zero saves.
Just "Good night, sweet prince. And flights of Angels sing thee to thy rest."
They had 4 hp left. Their max was 38.
I rolled a nat 20.
53 points of damage. Gone.
Farewell Sly. 🫡

Adventures in "Being The Fairy Dom Mommy"
A friend was asking me about the different labels we put on various flavors of gay men (twink/bear/otter/etc) and asked if femme folks had anything similar.
Y'all... I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe.

I may have started a cult.
My table yesterday was a bunch of teens.
These kids:
-Cast "light" on a jar of mayonnaise.
-Proclaimed themselves the "Order of the Holy Mayo"
-Started chanting "Mayonnaise! Mayonnaise! MAYONNAISE!"
-After, roaming the con doing their mayonnaise chant.

Me: Why are we printing a spreadsheet for me... manually enter into another spreadsheet? Just email me and I can copy/paste the information into the proper fields. It will cut processing time and reduce the chances for human error.
Supervisor: I... do not know. Let me get back to you on that.

Find me next week telling stories and rolling dice. I'm in at 11 am both days. I've written two new adventures for this event so come by on Saturday for "Whispers in the Wastes", a goblin-themed adventure, or Sunday for "Echoes of the Forgotten" if you prefer something more undead themed. #nococon

I ordered my old faithful sandwich from my favorite sandwich shop only to learn they've changed to different pickles and switched up the recipe for the sauce throwing off the whole Feng Shui of the sandwich and my brain thinks it's illegal now. AuDHD is absolutely wild.

I can't tell if it's coming from outside or the apartment next door but one of the neighbor kids is scream-singing "Hot To Go" at full volume. I am reminded of all the times as a teen that I blasted the same five songs on repeat for days. I must have been hell to live next to. 😅

Y'all. I've got enough players on board to open my second table! (Still 2 seats available but I'll run with what I've got.) The very idea of being paid to run DnD is absolutely fuckin' wild.
