Given what Mountain Dew has done to me, that tracks.

Bards aren't just "a talented musician" they literally use magic. They're basically wizards that went the liberal arts path in college.

Yeah, in that case I think you did everything that could reasonably be expected of you.

A war could always just end by the bad guy (from your perspective) winning decisively.

I think as a teenager I played a lot of Bards because being likeable and everyone doing what you say is kind of nice when you're an awkward disempowered kid, but nowadays I mix it up. Mostly just because playing the same character repeatedly would get kind of boring for me, and I want to explore different territory, even if it's on the level of "original the hedgehog donut steal"

That's kind of funny in a terrible way when you consider that a lot of security research is pentesting.

Therapist: "Also you're fat"

Patient: [incoherent sobbing]

Therapist: "Ok so you're insecure about that too, try to work on that..."

I think that was the right action, but you could have explained better. Instead of just "Ok, you stay at the tavern" something like "Ok, you can stay at the tavern if you really want to, but you do understand that will mean you're sitting here bored all afternoon while the rest of us play, right?"

Mac and cheese for dinner is lame and lazy too, but also fucking delicious. TTRPGS are something your friends put together for you out of love, not necessarily some clinically perfect professional product. And to extend the metaphor, if you go to a dinner party and start bitching about your friend not plating the food like a Michelin star place, you're an asshole.

Listen, if Bashir can casually turn Sisko into a klingon in an afternoon, outpatient, I'm pretty sure ~~becoming my fursona~~ gender transition is nbd

My boring dayjob is to sit in front of the holodeck and shoot anything weird that comes out.
