I just finished this as well. I use a terminal ...

There was something else I wanted to do in November, and I've already done and won NaNoWriMo a few times, so I've got nothing to prove and don't need to climb that mountain again.

Thanks. Now I need a break before I write another effortpost about my 20 year marriage.

Just got a copy of the remastered Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord for PS5. Still on the first level of the dungeon, but I've gotten my dudes to level 4.

<quoting=the-syreth-clan postID=2501 threadID=147> I think that is what caused me to realize, like Nietzsche said, my belief in the christian god has become unbelievable. My muses — Martina and Erika — are entities I interact with on a daily basis. I know ...
