Elden Ring. Somehow failing my way forward helps. Also, going back and slaughtering creatures that used to one shot me

I appreciate Rachel Pollack’s commentary in 78 Degrees of Wisdom, on the Strength card for just this reason.

I’m frankly in a phase of life where I am seeing with ever fresh clarity all the mistakes I’ve made that have led me to the rather solitary life I lead. And many days I’m just keeping my interactions with others to a minimum so that I don’t create any opportunities to feel shit about my interpersonal skills. But, and so, nonetheless, I manage to find self-pride in very little things.

Like how this week I learned all these keyboard shortcuts to make my editing of a text document faster. Or today, some kid was lingering by the basketball court awkwardly — like heartbreakingly awkward in his own skin. I asked him if he wanted to shoot a few before I headed home and made him a deal that I wasn’t allowed to go home 'til he shot a 3-pointer. I let him have as many tries as he needed until he get one.

Some of them might become the new normal spelling, just as with so many other names and wyrds

Oh you know, just hanging out

I’ve wondered how old the general usesr is. Somehow I imagine 30s (chronologically)

I kinda love it

Maximum Overdrive v2.0

The first 30min or so were good. When everyone’s depressed and before they launch their rescue mission

Sorry, yes: communities
