I just completed a two year long journey of getting my GED, which involved a lot of things I just didn't think I was ready for. The work needed to play catch up, having to kick myself into a proper schedule for classes, acquiring the work ethic to see it through to the end. It was scary, very scary.
For the first time in a long time I feel like I'm a functional person. I feel like I've proved that to myself. I love that. I love that a lot.
Uh-oh, I'm breaking the rules.
it's really hard to get him out of the fridge because of his monstrous size.

I heard cool people hang out here.
Currently only playing Arx as it's my first foray into the MU world, but beforehand I played a lot on old roleplay forums. Specifically for stuff dedicated to Warhammer 40k (Dark Heresy) and Warcraft related stories!
Past
Arx: Daemon †, Modi
Spirit Lake: Morgan (Idled out. Community there was fantastic, sadly didn't have the time to keep up with it. Wish 'em the best!)
Current
Arx: Victus, Abby
Euphoria: Cvegdo

@apos I'm actually very glad you said that. I only learned that this hobby was a thing about a year ago, which was also when I signed up to play in my first game. I was kinda blown away by the fact that shared stories and RP existed in this kind of sphere for so long. I can see how difficult it is to get the foot in the door and also stay in it as well, it becomes a real test of wills after sometime.
But personally I like it. I also realize I'm half the age of most folks who have been in this hobby for 20+ years, but it feels like it's got a lot of interesting places to go.
I got some art done of the big guy this week.
Wowee some big ol spoilers over here whoaaaaa look out

Space Dandy!
The director of Cowboy Bebop made it and it features a new art director for every episode. It's my favorite. PLEASE WATCH IT.

Something I think some folks might be happy about, out of light of Anthem ceasing development.
@Packrat tbf, the lord's son wasn't actually the mage behind all of that. He was possessed by a demon that was just piggybacking off his connection to the Fade to meddle in reality. It was more a combination of bad luck to stumble on a really powerful demon from hell.
Not every mage gets possessed by bad spirits, though. See Anders in Awakening before Justice went full Punisher-mode in DA2. Wynne also has a healing spirit that's keeping her alive and helping the party through the first game.
Updated again. Dipping into Euphoria lil by lil, I've really liked the small bits I've been able to play so far.
@Ominous The way the Clinic works is that you get your therapy and you get your prescription from the same doctors at their place. You can't have one or the other, you gotta get the whole deal or you don't get cared for. I'm considering seeing if I could get his contact information, see if he goes to another practice, but it'd also mean starting over with a new psychiatrist too in that case. And that's if he ends up in a mental health practice that'll be networked with my insurance.
I got the unfortunate news a few days ago that the mental health clinic I've been a patient at is going through some financial trouble. COVID related.
I got a call from their receptionist to let me know that due to them going through "some restructuring", my therapist had been let go without warning. I'd been working with this guy for about a year and then some. The last time we got to have an appointment over the phone, he'd remarked that he was very happy with my progress. He was looking forward to when we'd be able to chat again.
It's stinging to know that was the last time I'd be able to talk to him for help. They've already assigned me someone new, who I've been informed has picked up 12 new patients, all of whom were dropped from their carers like I'd just been. This isn't the first time this has happened either, as my previous doctors had moved outside of my insurance provider's network.
Starting a self-care relationship for the first time, twice in a two years. Yeesh. At least my psychiatrist can keep my medication supplied through the Summer.
@saosmash said in Diversity Representation in MU*ing:
My eyes are blue. I have never found them at all exciting. This thread is telling me that I am weird in a way I did not know.
My family is majority brown eyes, so when I’d had blue eyes I was like “aw rad, I got something neat.” Any characters I created for like ten years straight all had blue eyes cause it was like a personal touch.
Not nearly as much these days but I still occasionally get “hey neat, blue eyes” from time to time just based on identifying with it.
WWE has confirmed WrestleMania will no longer take place in Tampa Bay this year due to the coronavirus outbreak and will instead emanate from the Performance Center in Orlando.

However, WrestleMania will still stream live on Sunday, April 5 at 7 pm ET on WWE Network and be available on pay-per-view. Only essential personnel will be on the closed set at WWE’s training facility in Orlando, Florida to produce WrestleMania.”
