Showed up to the doctor’s office 10 minutes late after waiting four months for an appointment and they had to reschedule me to two months from now 🤡 love conservatives who fearmonger about socialized medicine’s wait times when we already live in hell

Baldur’s Gate 3: Used nonlethal damage on a sidequest character to save them from a hag, but BG3 doesn't have a way to wake people up after that other than taking a long rest. When I returned, her locket was on the ground and the quest log said I killed her. Game design!

Just finished grad school a month ago and keep telling my brain I don’t need to immediately find another years-long project to latch onto - going to simply read Capital (finally) and a few other books that grad school has distracted me from and Chill
