Unless you play as dwarves like some scrub

[hector13]

Rolan, the clue is literally in the title

[Rolan7]

Nah. It's clearly the fortress which is short, not the occupants. At least the way I play... wide and incompetently!

I notice that people nuke their posts more often here.

It's a little sad that nobody trusts anybody on this forum anymore.

Trust no one, not even yourself

[Rolan7]

Well in my case it wasn't a matter of trust, I just drunkenly claimed to be trans/fluid (which is still only a suspicion) and therefore (??) ranted about the Androsynth.
Yet again.

That's no secret, even to my RL friends who occasionally view my non-DND posts.  I just went waaaay too far with it.  I was trying to be empathetic, but in retrospect it felt offensive to people who have dysphoria more than "sometimes".  Also it was embarrassing.

I mean, in that same night I overwrote my signature with a 10 minute video I took while standing in a raging thunderstorm.  Which was wonderfully spiritual, but also really stupid and weird??  Sometimes things are too personal and have to be scrubbed.  Even though I treat this forum account as some sort of legacy...  Which feels really sad, until I actually reread my posts, and am usually quite happy with them.

So yeah, I nuke posts where I'm an insensitive asshole, or share sensitive information.

...Eh, you should be able to express how you feel "sometimes", even if other people feel the same way stronger and more persistently. It's not like that totally invalidates the fact that you were feeling that way, at that moment.

[hops]

Otherwise nobody is allowed to feel anything except for people stuck in torture.

[Rolan7]

I agree with both of you, and thanks.  But I shouldn't keep shitting up a feelings thread with alcohol-magnified feels.  There's a drunk thread for that.

Besides, I'd rather whine about my family here. 
Speaking of, I finally talked to my mom.  On the plus side, I'm helping her move some stuff next week.  I'm not being sarcastic - I was avoiding her for emotional reasons, so having an excuse helps a lot.  Physical labor numbs my emotional angst like nothing else.  It's why I hike so much, and so hard.

... I do need to make sure she isn't "cleverly" involving my brother, though.  Long shot, but just in case.

I love how Giglamamesh's signature happens to echo the signature I deleted.  Let the rain fall.

I sometimes nuke posts when I realize that I just said something embarrassing.

Hey, what even happened to drunk fortress?

[Yoink]

Nerds. I only scrub posts when the Voices command me to.

It just got kinda revived, actually! I'd been wondering the same thing myself, but a newcomer showed up and took a turn.

I only scrub posts on Discord. I always keep my head here so I almost never say embarrassing stuff.

Noone mourned Harlan Ellison here. Granted, he was kind of a dick, but still, he was one of the greats and it kind of surprised me that noone remarked it here.
