Sometimes I feel like I miss boarding school

Which is weird, because I did not in fact like many minutes I can remember at boarding school.

So I was trying to think of which bits were in fact helpful.

So a lot of this is, in normal times, around. Food I do not have to cook. Books sorted by topic for the borrowing. Groups to join to play stuff.

It's the getting to it conveniently and safely that is missing without a campus.

The way it concentrates people with similar needs and interests in one space is just handy, but goes away again as soon as you are done with that bit.



But then it is tricky to make everything walkable for so many different values of walkable. Humans be varied.

... I still think our living places could do much better at that one tho.

Sims 4 on the xbox controller is horribly fiddly and spinny, and I have no desire to play it long enough to get near getting the hang of it.

Stardew Valley I just dont really know what to do with yet. The colors are somehow bad to look at because too simple?? And I'm still pushing buttons to see if they do anything. But I planted some seeds.

I dont think I like computer games. I think I liked Pathfinder, which was available in computer form. But it crashes so much, and also I have finished it. ... I have not finished it in roguelike mode (what does that mean anyway? die and try again? its just what the achievements call it i think). It keeps forgetting my saves. It is very difficult to finish anything when it has forgotten... well it was two sets of thirty, and the about a dozen... lets say MANY levels, two preparatory bosses out of four, and about a dozen table artefacts, like over half the necessary. Crashes, forgettery, makes it impossible.

... but I liked the story and I know where I am with stomping around killing spiders and trying to figure out a good character build.
