I block people to prevent my having to see their posts. Easier that way.

Repair guy is here to replace a part of the water heater and he has to go through the game room to work on it. We ended up talking way too long about D&D, and Call of Cthluhu, running games for 6-year-olds, and how his wife has gotten really into painting minis.

Why would I be able to see a post in preview on the forum list and open the thread if I click on it from there, but not be able to see the thread at all in the actual sub-forum when I open it? I don't have the person blocked and I doubt I'd be able to see the thread no matter where I clicked on it from, if they had me blocked, right?

Naw, my health issues are the result of having long COVID for a year and a half. I had a formal diagnosis last month. Basically I have 4 hours of physical/mental energy a day and I have to pick and choose what I spend it on.

This may help you as it has helped me

I prefer "Fork Theory." As in, "Stick a fork in me, I'm done." Also, allows me to say, "Fork you, buddy," and mean it in a therapeutic way.

Although, I'd say "Attending a meeting" is a three-fork per half-hour task. And "Driving home" is a variable number of forks depending on length of commute and what particular route you take.

Attending a meeting with a good manager: 1 spoon. Attending a meeting with 2 bad managers: 1 spoon to prep, 2 spoons to attend, and 1 spoon to handle the post-meeting non-manager debrief with coworkers.
