Michael Stipe wears a ratty "captain's hat" and a collared white/sky blue striped shirt. He holds up a gloppy brown rectangular mass of sludge on a stick, with an unsavory, yellowed smile

I have to use AI on a work project. You know the episodes of Star Trek where Kirk argues a computer to self-destruct using nonsense? It’s like that, but I’m the computer.
Scrolling by I really thought that was Peter MacNicol.
My grandmother used “rabbitshit” as something between horseshit and chickenshit- petty, incompetent nonsense.

This is the best advice for how to be better at ANYTHING in TTRPGs. Be a fan of the other people and their roles. Love the other PCs. Admire the DM and get excited for their work. Geek out over the stuff your friends at the table are doing and want them to be happy!
Everything else will work out.
