    1. Write three paragraphs hinting at what led to your untimely demise
    2. Die in a cave while holding your journal
    3. Wait for the PC to find you and take your 3 gold coins

    Girls in middle school also drink water so I made sure to replace it with Mountain Dew years ago.

    No, it is obviously where you record your progress in your quest for turning lead into gold.

      People keep saying that and I’ve tried it multiple times but it always just ends up making me feel worse because after spending all this effort writing I am always reminded once again that no one will ever care about those thoughts.

    Try Gratitude journaling. Jot some notes about things and people you are grateful for that day. Doesn’t always come easy but forcing myself to list something is supposed to make me less of an asshole.

    I try my hand at journaling every once in awhile and everytime I realize what a boring person I am and not much of note ever happens to me on an average day. I could write my thoughts on a subject, but without the possibility of getting upvotes/likes/replies, it’s like doing volunteer work (ermagahd). I ultimately just haven’t been able to build a habit out of it. So I have a string of journal entries stretching back years, but it’s only once every couple of months and reads more like a, “Hey, I’m gonna try this journaling thing out and see if I can keep it up, nothing much to talk about today though. I’m horny.” Then nothing for months.

    There’s also solo RPGs and journaling games out there as well, though for some reason I have a hard time getting into those as well. Mostly because it feels like work and, with 3 kids, I don’t get a chance to do anything til late night and by that point as soon as I sit or lay down, I’m ready to sleep.
