Home Again, Home Again
Nov. 6th, 2022 06:27 pmDespite a sort of half-promise I made to myself to stay off of Twitter and other forms of social media in lieu of Dreamwidth...well, that hasn't happened. I suppose it was inevitable, given that it's midterms. It doesn't help that most of my gaming and theater friends seem to make liberal use of Twitter, so it's become my default way of keeping in touch with all of them. That may change, given the chaos the platform has been enduring over the past couple of weeks. Perhaps more people will leave and come here. That would be pretty cool. As much as I hate to admit it, I've kind of become addicted to the dopamine rush that comes from the somewhat instantaneous likes/replies you receive on social media platforms. It would be nice to avoid that feeling of screaming into a void.
Though perhaps that's the wrong way of looking at it. Perhaps it's better to frame Dreamwidth as a walk through the woods or a conversation with your favorite tree. There's a certain amount of peace that comes from just getting words out, even if the being you're conversing with can't audibly reply.

aseanchai and I are trying to make a habit of walking the local trails, the end of Daylight Savings Time will limit us to the weekends. (Walking before or after work will prove too challenging for a number of reasons.) We spent the majority of 2020 - 2022 in the house on account of COVID; rather than going on weeknights, I can write here instead and imagine that I'm in my personal grove. I can dream, can't I?
At any rate, I have plenty to do now that I've sent out the GOTV postcards and settled into a rhythm as far as volunteering for the International Federation of Trekkers.aseanchai and I have started a radio show over at BFF.fm - it's called Third Country Radio, a hat tip to our projects at Third Country Press. We have tons of TTRPGs going on as well, not to mention all of the crocheting I'd like to get done when it's cold and dark outside.
But for now, it's time to have some food.
