I'm doing almost sort of ok I'm just feeling down. And a lot of my time with friends was through a ttrpg I run, which started to feel more like work than fun just to be social. But everything feels like it has a big barrier to just hang out in a meaningful way. I'll look into brawl for deadlock
Scheduling everything sucks! I'm going nuts!
Really feeling the difficulty in doing fun things mid-dadhood with friends in gamer circles. Most of them have more free time and play games that require time investment. I could hop into one of three VCs where everyone is playing Deadlock every day. My ass would play like shit.
the best RE game imo
Taking a break from running TTRPG games has given me mixed feelings. I love playing them, but I put too much of myself into prepping and I have limited time. But minimal prep feels like a disservice to the players, and I have a lot less fun.
Having a hard time convincing myself to run games again.
@j8-bit.bsky.social asked me for help with their #balatro mod, so I made 3 cards for it.
I like making stuff in this style, honestly. I should revisit this style later, I suppose.

Had a good NetBattlers session last night. Was mostly lore but I made it in the form of news articles and NY Times style game answers so my players enjoyed it!
I don't want to be a gloomy person! But I regularly shut the doors leading out because of strict criteria I hold onto. The consequential loneliness and self-hatred reached a peak last night. I can't share the contents, but I feel the need to shout into the void anyway.
I think more options and variety is the answer. Like, the board game post was an attempt at that. I haven't had the time to do it again. Hopefully we can pull in more people before I have to crash into bed
I look forward to these a little too much, is the issue. When we have to skip or it feels like a session wasn't great, it really hits me for a while.
Also realizing that, because my free time is so limited, I'm putting all of my social eggs into a few ttrpg baskets. Since I run one of those games, I feel like the fun starts and ends with me. When I can't prep, I get really stressed. Maybe that's not a healthy mindset.
A tournament arc is a cool sidequest for my battle network campaign, but designing interesting 1v1 fights is a challenge. Most of my ideas seem annoying to play against, lol. InvisibleMan sends his regards
cute!
my group usually runs because I don't care if I'm down a player (it's usually the same guy who doesn't show up)
Basically? I need a new group, I think. I'm already running one game, so hosting a second one isn't good for my fragile psyche. I need to prod people and see if someone's in need of a player.
Taking psychic damage from how often the same TTRPG group cancels. I hardly do any socializing because of kids, so having one of the blocks routinely taken away is driving me mad

one of my favorite shmups! I honestly think it's better than its parody subject Gradius

fighting with my wife everyday is eating me alive. And I can't even drive off a hill because my son needs me. We're both just so tired and fed up with being broke
Self improvement is too hard, bro. I can't even afford my cost of living. Now I'm supposed to afford to wrangle my damn Id?
