Brand, thing, behavior, method, advice, mantra, etc.

I swear by Blackwing pencils.

Also, the ‘two minute rule’, which has really improved my life: “if it takes two minutes or less to do, just do it now; if it takes longer, schedule it.” I’ve got untreated attention issues and it’s very easy for me to notice something needing done, and overlook or procrastinate it because it seems inconvenient in the moment. Having a totally painless rule that forces me to acknowledge that thing I should pick up, that trash bag I should change, etc, or, to at least put on my calendar anything I mustn’t forget in the long run has been great for me.

    On a light note, I’m a slut for Bethesda, atleast I skipped Fallout 76 but I’m gonna preorder Starfield. I was 11 when Skyrim came out and it’s very near and dear to me and I love some aspects of Fallout 4. ESO was also not bad and I play Elder Scrolls Legends. I’m seeing this through to the end bois ✌️.

    On a serious note, I swear by never drinking alone or without someone I trust as much as my partner. Nothing bad happened to me but I have several negative experiences with drinking in my family. And technically my dad died riding a motorcycle drunk, but I don’t think being sober would have saved him from that specific incident.

    I just never ever want to be anything close to an alcoholic. I feel like I would get addicted if it was more convenient and didn’t taste bad. Fear of addiction is also why I’m wary of gambling.

      Is Legends still worth playing? I stopped after they announced there were going to be no new updates. Seems like with no new cards being added it’s only a matter of time before the most consistent/best/unbeatable deck comes is devised.

        I’ve been enjoying it, there’s still consistent players and a good variety of decks I’ve fought.

        Though you will learn to groan when you see an Oblivion Gate, Midnight Burial, or Paarthurnax.

        My personal gripe is that there are so many ways to destroy/silence creatures and not many full proof counters. I’ll have several turns of placing something down, it gets destroyed, repeat.

        But I always play ranked and at the moment have an equipment based deck, and a deck built around creatures that deal damage. Hardly meta but with each I win about half the time and slowly climb the ranks.

          Appreciate the feedback. Maybe I’ll pick it up again. I managed to grind my way to Legend rank before giving up.
