The Gaming Den

That should just be a given. When I meant write it down, I didn't mean post it. You could jot it down on a piece of paper and burn it. Just put the thought to some sort of action. I prefer just saying something out loud while I'm showering or something. But I wanted to give Orion an alternative whre he wouldn't be overheard.

@rad,

It's a roommate. You can't ask a roommate out.

Volunteering and saving seals and stuff is also good supposedly as is exercise but again, who are we kidding? Instead, make a personal goal to get really good at masturbation. Allot plenty of time and make a point of trying new things. Don't let yourself off easy.

Greatest piece of advice ever. Just remember, that when Aharon is asked as an old man why he didn't end Climate change*, he's going to blame Orion for it.

*Yes, END Climate change! Put the Climate in permanent stasis!

So, for a few years now, I've been talking to a person I met online. We didn't/don't really have a long-distance relationship thing going on, because we'd both had pretty negative experiences with that sort of thing, but we were close, and essentially dating when we were in the same town (very rare, we went to Fanime together, and she visited last month). Other than that, though, we had completely separate lives. She had a few different boyfriends in the past three and a half years, the most recent becoming her fiance, who knew she had a sort of boyfriend in Sacramento (me), and they had an understanding about that sort of thing. I haven't had any relationships in this time, because I'm shit at socializing, chatting people up, and basically completely unattractive because I'm basically just an idiot about social interaction, so my first impression is always interest-repelling shit.

She just got married.

I knew it was coming, and I don't hold it against her or anything, but it still fucking sucks. At least when they were just engaged it was easier to fool myself that maybe something could happen that would allow me to be with her in a real way, and I mean, it's still possible that she could become single again in the future, just... yeah.

I hate this shit.

I have totally been there. Shit sucks.

I have a coolant leak somewhere in my car. I have ruled out anything cheap to fix (not leaking anywhere outside), and have ruled out the catastrophic (it's not leaking in the crankcase). There has been unexplained wet spots on the floor in the passenger side so it's possible that it's a heater coil issue. Let's hope that's the case...

Thanks for all the valuable tips. Got off my ass, redid my OKCupid profile, registered for a speed-dating event on the 4th of January, wrote down a few things about my flatmate that I don't like, and masturbated furiously

Do perky dominatrixes exist? Because I've decided I would like to meet one... And by "meet", I mean have fun with. Although meeting one would also be kind of cool too and I wouldn't turn down the opportunity even if there was no chance of any other activities.

Of course.

Interesting. I will keep looking.

Also, I think my spider is not feeling well, I cleaned out her cage and she didn't attack me...

Well, it took a little while, but I finally finished photographing my entire Conan comic book collection. Check it out!

That's one fuck of a shelfie.

What's it like to be rich?

I'm not rich. I'm middle-class. But I'm middle class with a good, steady job in a low cost of living area with no wife or kids or mortgage or student loans. So I'm bored shitless and have a fair amount of disposable income. But I've been building that for years.

And anyway, that's not a shelfie. This is a shelfie.

I'm unemployed and live with my parents out of a 12x9 room. Even if I spent my unemployment on things I wanted like that (not like I'm doing anything better with it), I'd have no place to put it.

To me, you're rich. Then again, what area is that, I need to get away from Sacramento.

I'm in Middle Georgia. And yeah, being unemployed and living with your parents sucks. I'm glad I escaped.*

* Mom still visits like four weeks out of every ten.

You have more books than my entire family. I am shocked; there are five of us and we all read a lot of books.

The midwest worked for me in nearly every way if you can handle the fact it was -10 a few days ago.

I was offered an opportunity in San Jose before the holidays to think about. I haven't heard back from the guy yet, but gave him a call to check in yesterday.

The only reasons I'm hesitant to take said opportunity is the fear of fucking up and losing my job stranded in a high cost area, and leaving my very small group of friends when it's very difficult for me to really get to know new people.

It helps that I had family in the area I moved to, and that I hated almost everyone I interacted with back in VA.

AH, I am not helping you move.

I might but would as payment probably be a frequent patron of the Derie Library. I'm at least a courteous borrower of books.

You should be, I have an entire book of book curses.

Yeah, moving as a book person is a pain in the ass x.x
If you think about it, books tighly packed together are basically cubic meters of wood again, fucking heavy and unwieldy to transport and still remarkably fragile <.<
I fear the day when i have to move my library . .

So, I've been medicated for about three weeks now. First time I had a shrink that didn't either drug me until I can't feel feelings anymore or just told me nothing was wrong. And every once in a while, I literally shudder about how batshit fucking insane my worldview was... even when I thought I was doing fine. I was a truly shitty person and I literally had no idea... This is going to be hard for me to take, but my doc has me starting talk therapy next month (he said based on my symptoms, any sort of talk therapy would be a waste until I found a medication to even me out, but it needs to happen soon after).

I just now sent off my overwhelmingly positive response in regard to a prospective concept art position.
