We're playing TTRPGs with the rainbow crew tonight. I may be playing Satisfactory with Adorable this afternoon. But I have to get a rattle on with my offerings.
Not helped by my mentoring one of my Beginners about plot elements and making a story tastier for the audience.
Currently providing insights into writing psychopaths is dividing my attention.
I should try to focus on the offerings. More time to play means more time to hang out [even virtually] with Adorable.
Let's get on with it.
The pressure to do evil is immense, if there comes a day when I must “Discipline” you, please believe me that my only thought is of… protecting you. -- Anon Guest
Some traditions in education have to die. Some have to be actively murdered. Forcing left-handed people to only use their right hands, for instance. Or... being very strict with the Unwelcome Peoples.
"It's necessary," insisted Scholar Administator Brogitarius Zenonis, straight into the face of one of the Unwelcome. The fact that

BUT it's also date night and bonding exercises have to be a shared experience we can do together. So we're doing that.
Technonerds for the win, I guess.
I already did the meme on the Fediverse this morning, so all I have left is the daily tale, the Wordpress entry, and

The silence between them was far too long as Milo thought about it. So long that Damian looked over to his friend in growing concern.
"Dude, that was meant to be a joke."
"I mean... possibly?" said Milo, still frowning in thought. "But also taking it seriously is making me realise I'm in a fuckin' terrible place.

Well, we won't let them starve, but we will help them learn to cook. Otherwise, they're going to get REALLY tired of nutripaste, water, and salad. -- Anon Guest

Verne the Vacuum did have stiff competition. Unfortunately for Daiv, the goal was speed and not volume. Well, not completely volume. It was the most volume in

Yesterday went well enough. The most anxious person about the QPP was MeMum, who had some points about a few things.

All I want to do is nap.
So it's highly likely that I will be doing a twofer tomorrow, or at least the minimum a day behind and a twofer on Tuesday.
I don't want to make it that extended, but I might have to.
My feet hurt and I am very sleepy. If anything comes out of my warped

Only the Master Bai called the resident Hellkin a Lord. It might have been sarcasm. It's hard to tell with Elves. The rest of the Dojo either referred to him as Trainee Hellkin,

Needless to say, I am a very tired bean and I have yet to create or post my offerings for today.
As for tomorrow? There may not be any entries at all.
Tomorrow, the QPP is heading out to introduce ourselves

It's another thing I'm nervous about, so I heartily expect to be exhausted on the following Monday.
I didn't even know I was stressed on Wednesday night until I fell over and slept through most of yesterday. It'll be

Grapes stuffed into raspberries so they looked like they were wearing little beards, unpeeled apple slices with apples spread with a bit of frosting and marshmallows to look like smiling mouths, oranges peeled to look like big, fat, flowers, etc. Why? Just to share treats with friends and to enjoy life. -- Anon Guest

Make no mistake, Halley Bailey does amazing work in this film. It is not her fault that she's been acting against soulless CGI puppets and one guy who can't really sing.
