What's the best part of your life right now?
-
If everything goes according to plan, I'm moving to Europe.
That's so cool!!

That's so cool!!
It's gonna be, if my visa request is not rejected!

Playing X4, despite the crashes.
But to be really honest, giving drawing lessons to 9-11yo kids. Something I never considered doing in my life, but damn does it make me feel good, though the kids' progress (or lack thereof) often leaves me wondering if I'm actually being any good
That sounds like rewarding work. I feel like even if they're not progressing that fast, just having a positive role model in their life is probably really meaningful

What's bringing you joy?
Right now, I'm working a ton (72 hours per week) and my wife is working and going back to school, but every Tuesday is an entire day together. We just started playing Baldur's Gate 3 for the first time, and we look forward to it all damn week lol. We started like a month ago, but we're still only just now wrapping up the goblin camp. We both were already really familiar with 5e DnD, so a lot of the mechanics feel pretty intuitive to us. I have gripes with the camera (PS5 version) but overall it's a fantastic experience.
Before picking this up on sale, we were passing the controller back and forth through Astro bot. Also amazing! We rolled credits, and I'll probably aim for the platinum trophy at some point without her. There's truly not much left before we snag that, so she's not missing out.

I'm really struggling but actually doing extremely well, all things considered. We've had a hostile takeover so even if I keep my job, it really feels like it's going to shit. My garage was broken into and my bikes nicked or damaged - that really sucks bug moreso because is my main hobby, exercise and coping mechanism
I'm hoping I can order a new mountain bike with a gearbox, so that'll be really exciting - but it's ages away at best.
The reality is my family love me and I'm successful, so in real terms, things are good - but I really need to work on my imposter syndrome and inner accuser!

whaat x4 looks like modern tachyon: the fringe.
how did i never hear about this game before
X4 is a very complex game. You start as a relative nobody in space, but can earn money to create big mining and trading fleets to get more money while you're busy with other stuff, finally using said money to buy military fleets.
It's full of eurojank, it's a huge time sink (I'm a bit over 100h now), but it may be the kind of thing that tickles your neurons just right.

That does sound stressful, and I'd be pissed if anyone fucked with my garage, that is a sacred space! Sounds like you've got your priorities in order though, keep on rockin!

I have no idea. Something called "Milo"?
It's just nice to be able to put something on that's innocent and childlike. There isn't much like that around.
It's gentle.

I've not played it, but I've seen it mentioned often enough to think I should probably give it a whirl

That's really sweet that you guys get that time together and share that common experience. I played through BG3 over the past year with a group of buddies and we had some great laughs fucking around, truly such a fun time.

My cat has been extra cuddly lately. Earlier she slept in my arms using one as a pillow.

Iโm very happy to be a land owner. Just a few months ago I bought some land and now live in an RV on the land.
Tomorrow we drive about 7 hours round trip and get the last of our stuff from storage. So happy to not pay that rent anymore.We have fresh air, beautiful views, and tons of space to work on projects, free electric from solar, and soon free water from rain. I canโt wait to start our garden soon, then it will be free groceries.

I'm a month away from completing my union electrician apprenticeship. It's been a lot of work, and there is plenty more to come. But after five years of working towards something, it'll be nice to reach a big milestone.
