Since I've moved to Boston in 2020, I don't have any friends... at least in real life. When I first moved here, I had some people that I would kind of hang out with, but it was during the height of COVID. So people really didn't get out much. During the last six years, I've met my partner, a...

I've actually watched this happen in real time. About six months ago, one of my co-workers was dating another worker from another department. Things got heated. Things became stressed. .... They're back together "sort of" now, only because it's "convenient".

I get along with most of my coworkers. But then again, I'm also an elder, both in age, and experience. I've worked where I'm at for six years now. Most people move on after a couple years-- sometimes much sooner. I'm also 50, nearly twice the age of my average coworker. I clock in, do the...

Okay. So, this is the "running my own personal AI/LLM software on my desktop" kind of application... using stuff like KoboldCPP and SillyTavern, right? Yeah, yesterday I fell down this rabbit hole as I'm experimenting for creative writing purposes.

That depends on the GM/group. But forum role play comes and goes in spurts. Usually the summer time, most games are dead-- everybody is outside enjoying REAL LIFE. But coming into the autumn and winter time, games pick up. People are copped up indoors. It's courtesy to post if you KNOW...

Why does this give me Stepford Wives imagery? 😅

Well, I can certainly teach you (or anybody else for that matter who's interested). It's actually pretty easy to do. The hard part is finding people who are disciplined enough to commit the time to play, to stay engaged. One of the reasons I enjoy Play by Post gaming is because I don't have to...

I think AI, as any tool has the potential to be misused, abused, or leaned on as a crutch (whatever word means that-- I need coffee). I believe that Artificial Intelligence is of great help for quickly summarizing data, or computing complicated mathematical formulas-- I've recently used it to...

I personally believe that the bill should be paid 50/50% or each their own (I think it's called "Going Dutch". Why? Because that way, there's no implied favors (usually resulting in something sexual) because your date paid your way. Whenever I used to go out to eat, even with friends, unless...

I use DeepSeek, but I'm just bouncing ideas I have about the series of anime-centric novels that I'm writing. It's REALLY helpful for quickly gathering research from multiple sources. And it's handy to calculate the Astrological data for each character-- something that would probably take me a...

Table top role playing games. I had this as a hobby before I discovered anime. Now I blend the two together.

Don't sell yourself short. You may be able to offer that unique piece that just clutches onto somebody's heart. Just be warned, using Etsy, there's small fees. Not so much of a bother if you're not doing Print-on-Demand / Drop Shipping, but still something to keep in mind.

Alright! Day four of my vacation!.... I've spent the past couple of days just recovering and resting. I've managed to pick up Savage Worlds (SWADE), and I'm truly excited that this game may finally unlock the epic Magical Girl Cat-fight battle that I have been wanting to do for-like-ever...

I can't help but to think of this: "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb." It reads to me that you're involved in a toxic relationship with your niece. She sees you as an Automatic Teller Machine that she can use whenever she needs to. This is a one-way...

Well, I've had an interesting week. I thought I was going to loose my forum because I couldn't afford to pay the web hosting fees for another year. But a true generous heart came through and now we don't have to worry about loosing our digital home. I have learned more than I ever needed to...
