What's on your mind?
nostalgia is a bitch
Had an old xbox friend pass away a while ago and was reminiscing.
We had hung out a few times in real life (visited him in Boston when I was visiting colleges and then another time when my family flew him down from Boston to go to our beach for a week). I got a text from his father; it seemed like an automated message sent to all of his contacts. I responded and his dad remember me. We exchanged words and it was absolutely soul crushing. It's one thing when you fall out of touch with someone because you can always check up on them through social media. It's another when they are dead. day to day it's no different. But then that split second they pass into your thoughts; not being able to check their IG feed and see a glimpse into their life is crushing.
It's crazy to think that this forum was such an integral part of my life for so many years and now it's just a sliver in my memory. No one in my life todays knows this place exists and it's a weird feeling.
Hope y'all are well. Is anyone in the NYC area?
Halo and Minecraft? Halo and Doom? Now I've seen everything.

I've been working from home for many years now. Specifically almost 3 with ElgatoGaming so my day to day hasn't changed. But it's more difficult to go out for lunch due to traffic being ironically worse with people going out.
Good news is that more people staying home means more people probably streaming so I'm staying very busy and am not at risk like some workers in retail or food service.
Im one of the only people in the company still at the office. I feel like Home base for a military operation its weird af. It might get pretty fucked pretty quick as far as assignments drying up as i mostly consult about public areas.. for now I have plenty to do though.
I did prep my house for work from homs if measures tighten.
Might finally kick the kids off my Xbox (who are forever building coasters in Minecraft while yelling at exploding creepers) and get around to playing through Fallout 4 or Outer Worlds. Because there's nothing quite like riding out an apocalypse by playing through a simulated apocalypse. At least in the game world I don't have to worry about hoarding tp.
yo I fuckin love some good ole h2

I'm WFH as my employer is pretty flexible. Our governor (Ohio) is issuing a mandated stay-at-home order for everyone in non-essential positions. Just waiting for shit to slowly hit the fan over the next couple months.
Wait, Ian...what part of OH you in?
Officially been WFH for 7 weeks. Also feel lucky based on the industry I work in. Was a really easy transition.
