I've gotten a couple of responses from people interested in meeting for lunch or s/t (which is great!) but not a cluster of people in the same area, or anything that would "anchor" a leg of a trip.
so probably "make 1 toot & assemble a road trip from the responses" isn't a super workable plan by itself… I'll keep yall in mind if I end up traveling near you 🦁❤️

imo I did a lot of caring and supportive things this con — offering ppl closeness & touch as aftercare for fire alarms or [unknown stressful event], offering/bringing ppl drinks b/c they needed them, steering oblivious (in the moment) ppl around other(s) trying to signal that the current topic was bad for them, helping ppl process & reframe panic spirals
stuff that requires paying attention to other people and taking initiative

started reading through Thirsty Sword Lesbians this morning (got thru the "playbooks", which are kinda like classes)
the big takeaway being: I cannot even imagine roleplaying a character centered around a passionate emotional conflict. it's just a dead zone. I'm looking at the different playbooks like "which of these could I play without doing feelings", which is the exact opposite of the point of the game.
the art is good, the writing is good, I'm just a husk ig.

ancient precursor temple/dungeon lamp-lighting puzzle (the precursor electrician knew nobody was going to check their work in their lifetime so they just put the emergency exits and emergency lighting on the same circuit, in series.)

ancient precursor deathtrap temple, built to memorialize their dying civilisation
(the "deathtrap" part is b/c their dying civilization no longer had the state capacity to enforce building code)

I'm basically crashed right now in terms of being able to take initiative & perform agency
but there's still a sense that like, idk, I'm not a useless waste of space or something, I do have many good qualities, I'm just not really able to draw on them right now
there's so much potential being left on the ground b/c I'm not in a situation/context that provides any structure / support for me to do… whatever it is I could be doing

I've been playing the "Startup" format (the two core sets + latest narrative block) and done surprisingly well, considering
but most games on jinteki.net are Standard, so if I don't want to wait between for another startup player to join in then that means… learning 3-4x as many cards? and maybe half chunk are from the old wotc game, with highly uneven quality & less nice-looking cards. those should all rotate out "late Q1".

and then "Delay / Deny / Depose" feels like if you asked a neural net to come up with one for you, cuz it has vaguely the right vibes but doesn't really line up with what's actually going on, except maybe the "depose".

question: does anyone know when or where those "Verb. Verb. Verb."-style taglines/mottos started becoming popular?
"Veni, vidi, vici." maybe the seed of the idea, but not the same.
"Embrace, extend, extinguish" feels like a forerunner.
"Secure. Contain. Protect." is it, it's arrived now.
"Extract. Export. Excel." ( https://netrunnerdb.com/en/card/33057 ) is in the mold (if kinda weak), and clearly referencing the 4X genre.
"Gatekeep, gaslight, girlboss" is "topical slang sponsored by the letter G"

hey yall, I'm going to have to free time next year, esp. in the first few months. I'm hoping to use some of that time to travel & visit folks & make friends, probably in the form of road trips with multiple stops along the way.
Are you interested in meeting up, having me stop by, or hosting me for a night? Lower-key casual visits are fine!
Regions of special interest include: Bay Area, Seattle, Chicagoland, Canada, and maybe New England or even EU/UK if there's enough

Lancer NHPs don't need to be paracausal black-box intelligence phantoms.
a Lancer NHP can be literally a whale. it's allowed and it can pilot a mech that steps on things.
