Well, it looks like my schedule has been cleared. Don't have to ride the bus cross country today, and my appointments we cleared. Walmart this morning was INSANE, but what can I say. Time to edit a little an 11 chapter story, and work on chapter 2 of the follow up to it. Already have schoolwork done for the week.

Great poem, tim. Very spot on. I'm not sure which is worse. The price gouging, the panic buying, or the politicization some are doing to score points for November (here in the US).

NHL just suspended the season, and Major League Soccer (Football for you non-Yanks).

Yeah, but I rather her be safe, than all of us be sorry.

Lightning are still playing the flyers tonight, at Amalie. Everything I've read so far says it's still good to go, but they are monitoring the NHL's overall response. Also, Lightning is celebrating PRIDE night tonight, and if I had $25 I would be going with a student ticket.

They just locked-down my Mom's rehab/skilled nursing facility. No visitors, and patients that can leave and return at will, like my Mom, can't leave the building. They have am outdoor courtyard they can go to, but that's it. Yesterday, when I was there, they were taking the temps of everyone, staff and visitors that were coming in, making sure no one was coming in with symptoms.

3 hours... five buses.

Got a certified letter saying that I did graduate from High School. It was the cheapest, and only thing I could afford, until grant money comes in. On way home now, via Tampa's stellar public transportation system /s.

So after 2 years of getting grants for school, and last Wednesday found out that Financial Aid needs documents that say I graduated High School. Again. Seems the feds are requiring everyone to resubmit them. So, of course guess who can't find his diploma. It's been a lesson of government inefficiency this morning dealing with the Hillsborough County School District, since last week.

Home, finally. About to eat a PubSub, drink a tall glass of sweet tea, and think about all the people I said, "Bless your heart," to today. I'm showing my Southern Roots.

Your follow up comment to miss molly about being indecent, makes me wonder if you were going commando when this happened. Also, I've had this happened to me once. It was embarrassing as all hell.

The last time we saw the Gith in a D&D video game was Neverwinter Nights 2. And that was the 3.5 rule set. So, I'm looking forward to this one as well. I played the original BG and BG2. So I'm looking forward to this one.

Any hints on what the story might be about?

Planescape was the area I DMed in my group. I love the setting, and Sigil was just the best. Though the city looking like a c--- ring hovering over a long shaft always made me chuckle. And don't you dare try to worship the Lady of Pain. That was a quick way to get killed or be sent to the mazes. Had a PC learn the hard way, after being warned In Character and Out of Character. One of the few hard rules I ran with for the setting.

First thing I would do is look for a Cleric, and get a Cure Disease, followed by a Full Heal, and a Greater Restoration. Not going to leave it to fate if I start sprouting tentacles from my face. Also wondering if this will take place in space too, because of the Spelljammer Ship.

The part I'm wondering about storyline wise, is who the Githyanki woman is on the Spelljammer. I mean, 3 Githyanki Wizards on Dragons fly to get her off that Ithilid Spelljammer.

Yup. Still months from public use, but there is one now, and it's in testing.

I just saw on the news that the USA now has a vaccine that was approved for clinical trials today.

People who know me, or just follow some of the stuff I've posted here on GA over time, know that I fight Bi-polar and Depression among other disabilities. Things haven't been going well, and well I wasn't in the right frame of mind when this topic came up over the weekend. I wasn't making myself clear, and was lashing out based on prior personal history. I do regret my actions that furthered this topic to be relegated to The Pit. To set the record straight, I do not have any issues with diversity and inclusion in stories. If someone wants to use something as a aide, more power to you. What I do take exception to, is when someone weaponizes those tools, against others. I find it funny, that two years ago, I wrote about this topic in a Topic Tuesday post in the Writer's Circle. In two years we went from a civil discourse in our private author forum, to the topic being relegated to the pit.

Thanks, Wayne for posting this. With it popping up in my backyard, here in Hillsborough County, it's become a topic of concern around the house.

The Opening cinematic looks awesome. Baldur's Gate III

A couple of years ago I did a Topic Tuesday, one of many, that talked about Character Agency. Totally agree man.
