Our Geeky weeks and festive plans!
Robbie
WoW: not much time for it as pre-Christmas events were happening.
D&D: Had a session this week. My Brewmaster Monk made some Blackcurrant Booze with interesting effects in battle. Also hit wraiths hard in the face.
Razerbug
Wow: got heritage armour, remembered Stone Form is a thing, Met Fatusbloke! Leveling Warlock (34), discussion about gearing and progression mythics.
DnD: joined a guild in Waterdeep, Grey Force. Got a point of Renown (what does that do?), thinking about writing up a disc priest style monk class for 5e...

@TGCshow @robbie_glow ep 114: What would I tell someone new to the internet? Same thing I tell my kids: keep your mind engaged, people can say (and fake) whatever they want. Recognize your echo chamber. Behave there as you would in person (and be nice). Guard your mental health. And what would I do without internet access? Read a lot more. Go outside more. Play offline games. Banking and purchasing would be the most difficult. But I was in college before The Internet. Our worlds were more local and less instantaneous, that's all.
