Discussed buying respirators with a friend today. A totally normal thing to be doing. And having been tear gassed back in 2020 I definitely recommend having one of the government turns chemical weapons banned in war by the Geneva Convention on you.

Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

Visiting my family and we are definitely a condiment family. An overabundance of sauces, relishes, vinegar, dressings, spices, spreads, etc. I probably have the least in the family because I live in an apartment. It's nice to notice those traditions we carry on without speaking about.
