Current Owning a pet and being the brave one in the room to keep them calm worked well enough to keep yourself calm. As being happy and calm is almost as infectious as fear.

Winter storm warning in April, plus power outtage, resorting to a gasoline-powered PC and internet connection. Sounds more metal than it is.

One of the stranger cold-war films I've seen was a movie about the start of WW3 directed as though it were a western, set in Alaska.

You'd be surprised by how much flavor and spice can go missing from a forum post if you remove all formatting.

Bio

-There will be delays in replies. Largely due to working overtime, voluntary obligations; other RPs and online-things may compete for my attention.

'Bout me:
Started RPing (badly) back in '05, mostly doing nation-RPs with an emphasis on technology and strategy, later edging out to character-espionage and military-tactics before doing "less serious" character roleplays that were outside of the 2005-2008 continuity.

That's when I went to Dead-Frontier, and found the RP community there, joined a clan, did some pretty good roleplays and pretty much loosened-up my online-personality. When the clan-leader decided to move her RPs here, most of the clan followed.

Took a course in technical-writing back in '08, so now I may sometimes use the semicolon correctly.

In 2010 I dusted off the old nation-RP continuity I had, doing a few hetelia-esque RP-shenanigans there..

RP-Habbits: I tend to geek-out on little technical-details, and sometimes infer how those details would impact the background of the roleplay. Great for world-building, not so great when you had a perfectly good plotline and I just MacGyver it off the rails (though I usually er to the side of amusement, sometimes it creates very grim side-stories).

Thank you all so much! Eventually I did decide on a laptop rather than a Steam Deck and thanks to all of the amazing information I got from all you wonderful people I managed to find one that works! I am super excited to join the ranks of BG3 players. Hopefully I don't die right away. Once again. All of my gratitude to you wonderful people.


You'll probably die right away, but that's half the fun.
otoh, you probably don't want to go to this level of budget:


That said, such a rig would still beat the stuffing out of an N64 and can also do non-gamer stuff.
