Blog necromancy

Well, hello there...
I don't seem to remember owning a blog...

Ah... i'l cut the crap...

It has been a few years since i posted anything to this blog. I simply didn't have the energy or the time for it anymore in 2016. The stress of putting stuff out there on the internet was triggering my anxieties and left me depressed too much of the time. (And i'm a white cis (mostly) heterosexual male, so i don't have to deal with the bulls*it that marginalized folk do.)

I don't know if my situation is much better at this point, but i am feeling a genuine desire to blog about RPGs again.

And now the world is hit with this Covid-19 situation... 

I really love this hobby. I have realized as i went through a year (2019) that was filled with loss and greif, that my interest in role-playing games is really central to me. I'll be 38 this year and i've been playing RPG since i was 11. That is 27 years, a substantial portion of my life.

So in honor of a good friend and adventuring companion that ended his life in 2019 because the darkness inside became too much to bear.
...
And in honor of those friends that are with me in the loss and grief as we keep playing these games that we've played since childhood.
...
In honor of choosing my own way in life, and not letting others decide for me.
...
I will return to this blog. To write, occasionally and when moved, without fear.

Roll dice...
