The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

I swear to god, you play dumb more than anyone else on the forum.

I just put it on repeat, then forgot to change it... It's such a catchy tune, though...

On the other hand, have you met people lately?

I try not to.

I know I come back to this every so often, but seriously: when you hate or loathe something that much, get away from it. Don’t give it space in your home or in your mind. Make it go away. Because we are physical beings, stressful emotions take a measurable physical toll on your health. They make you more vulnerable to infection, more prone to systemic failures, slower to heal. Nothing in the world of hobbies that you hate is worth those prices. More folks would be a lot better off abandoning things they stopped loving or even liking long ago and instead filling their time and thoughts with things they can now enjoy. It’s not just about a choice of attitude but of actual, objective costs as well as being boring and destructive to the communities around them.

For myself, I need to put more time into solo play, since that’s what my disabilities allow for now and I do enjoy it.

Life responsibility changes are doing the same for me, although I may shift toward play-by-post instead of solo. Still trying to decide if I enjoy the format or not.

Definitely one of those things where the only answer is what works for you. For me it seems to be Ironsworn, Starforged, and Sundered Isles.

True that. If you're at all into miniatures I'd also recommend the "5 Units of Distance Form Someplace" games - 5 Parsecs From Home, 5 Leagues From the Borderlands - as having decent light RP elements melded with campaign warband minis play. Much better for solo support than (say) the Frostrgave/Stargrave minis games, which are still mostly focused at two-player - although Rangers of Shadow Deep is much more solo-friendly.

I’d love to be into minis but managing them is not a thing with disability and other constraints, alas. Filing the advice away for when that changes.

Huh. I really, really don't foresee a positive, productive exchange of ideas coming from that particular thread.

Aaagghhh! Run away! Run away!

 

[trappedslider]

Yeah, there's a lot of network TV that isn't any better when you actually use your eyes on it. I have a weakness for the occasional old game show from various OTR archives myself.

Plutotv and tubi have both the newer with Drew and a channel of nothing but Bob Barker era episodes

I'm surprised myself.
