Chick playing the witch is a pro singer who has performed solo at Carnegie Hall. Kinda feel like a scrub in comparison. But for reasons the director has inserted part of der holle racht into the script. I’m still not sure what those reasons are... but I get to do fun high notes so idgaf.

Local regional theater is doing A Gentleman's Guide in the Fall and I've been toying with the idea of getting back involved with theater for a while. Last time I sang was in a chorus in college, but I'm the right age and, most importantly at this theater, male, so I might actually be competitive.

i find that the best solution to impostor syndrome is underlings: i may never feel like i belong at my current level but god almighty some of the stuff the juniors do makes me very sure that, at least, that they should be reporting to me and not the other way around is correct

I did a quick search and I have made spreadsheets for the following games:

- No Man's Sky
- Pokemon
- Overwatch
- Skyrim

Not as many as I would have thought. And literally (not figuratively) dozens of various spreadsheets for Fantasy Baseball, and Fantasy Football over the years.

Since everyone else is making admissions when I was playing Rome Total Realism I made a hugely detailed family tree using Freemind (mind mapping software) for my roman faction, complete with roman tria nomina and cognomina ex virtute based on campaigns and other in-game and ridiculous RP crap I came up with. That game was cool. So much time wasted.

Jesus you people are nerds. Worst I ever did was high level weekly raiding on ffxiv.

I did play console games most of my youth. Then at 20 my gamecube, gameboy that would like to it, ps2, and probably a hundred games got stolen from my house. Never really got back into gaming again outside of periodic computer games.

I remember the sad look of defeat on his face the session we took down his dragon with a tanglethorn bag, a rope, and a slew of your momma jokes. Was his own fault thinking DMing a party of 2 lawyers, a white hat hacker, and a defense intel analyst was a good idea.

I think that was the day we broke him. The day [redacted] died, and The Mittani, evil space douchelord, was born. Never again to be mocked or trifled with. Feared by all.

But to greater points, that Rome game sounds loving sweet. I played a lot of Ceasar III. Yours sounds better.
