Huh, interesting. I'll look into it. Might help nail down how I do it cus it helps, but not much.

Tried to, but it instead it makes me super aware of every bodypart, and suddenly everything is uncomfortable. That was the usual sit cross legged, recite a mantra kind of meditation.

Now I just do breathing exercises instead, count 1 to 10, then back down, focusing on my breathing. I usually have to do that when I'm very tired but still can't manage to fall asleep due to my wandering mind. It helps settle myself down. I still manage to get distracted though, counting in different languages and catching myself doing it, then wondering if trying to correct it is better than just letting it be.

Solo: Baldur's Gate 3 in Honour mode, goddamn, it's tough. Also, CK3, doing a hellenic socotra run and it's been close to being over so many times. Was playing Skyrim but bethesda updated the .exe and I don't even want to know what broke and what didnt.

MP: Baldur's Gate 3 with friends, Squad, and Hunt: Showdown.

Being against Biden doesn't mean being for Trump. You can't expect people in power to look out for your interests and opinions if you keep rewarding them for not being as shit as the worst of them.

And Biden is helping the genocide go on by choosing not to at least condemn Israel's actions (though that would be the definition of a limp dicked response). Though a stronger response would be better.

Yep, used to pirate it but ended up buying it, I use it for work so much I might as well buy it.

Won't do that with anything Adobe though. Fuck Adobe. I'll pirate anything Adobe.

If there wasn't such a strong incentive in the system to become wealthy, V possibly wouldn't ever try to get into problematic situations like the Konpeki heist.

Night City is known as the city of dreams because it offers the rich and powerful all the comforts money can buy, and a quick way there is merc work. If you don't have money, you're less than nothing.

The game does go out of its way to attenuate or neuter a revolutionary message every chance it gets. Hell, V recognizes the problems with unfettered capitalism (conversation with Takemura outside Arasaka warehouses), but defends the status quo every chance they get (convo between johnny and V in Pacifica after Placide). The game always defaults to implying the system is fine for most people.

Not like he is literally dying because of the system. I wish I could play V as a fledgling socialist, honestly.

Perhaps the wild shape could come from a cursed Ushanka. Otherwise, Warlock/Druid would be hella MAD.
