Official Mini Reduced Activity Thread
While I just finished my coursework for the year, some other factors have come up which are causing me stress, so I'm going to have to cut back a little bit on my SOTF activity for the forseeable future until I get all of that under control.

I’ve been sick as a dog lately and as a result a I’ve had literally no will to write or even get on my computer to do anything. Don’t know how long this will last specifically but it should hopefully clear up soon.

I started my new job a couple of weeks ago, and this week we've been rolling out hybrid working, which has meant I've started going into the studio a few times a week. This is proving quite a shift from how i've been operating for the past two years, so my opportunities and motivation to write have been much lower than usual! I probably won't be posting super frequently until I've gotten used to this new schedule, so at least a couple of weeks.
My broadband at home is currently not functional and is unlikely to be back up until next week, so I'm stuck phone posting until then, unless I'm on campus (which I won't be at the weekend). That is conditional on my 4G continuing to work on my phone, which is pretty hit or miss, so do bear with me.
Fortunately my internet restored itself while I was away at uni, so all is well in the world.

If I had living characters in active games this would be an Away but I don't so /shrug. Modem blew out last night so I can only connect to the internet via phone by USB. The modem was failing even before that, and the new one was supposed to be here "between the 25th and 28th" but it has yet to ship so that's very awesome and cool. I'll be around some, but less actively and not doing much reading/not super present in calls until it's fixed, probably.

Probably should've done this a week ago, but foolishly I believed the promises.
Work is super messed up because everyone else is sick right now. This has rippled into me working extra hours, often at a weird location, in such a way that my schedule allows a maximum of ~4ish continuous hours of sleep at a time.
It's supposed to be fixed on Monday, but it was also supposed to be fixed today, and last Monday, and last Sunday, and last Saturday, and last Friday, so I'm skeptical.
Should still be able to post/be around but it's really wreaking havoc on my longer-form concentration.

Had some bad stuff come up IRL and may be less focused, present, and/or speedy than usual for the next few days.
This will almost certainly upgrade to a full Away at some point here for a few days, but precisely when I'm not sure yet.

Don't wanna post a full away because there's still a chance I might get some posts out, but I'll be on reduced activity from the evening of the 30th to the 5th due to being in Los Angeles.

Will have a relative staying for the next ~two to three weeks and thus will be pretty absent from voice calls. Will probably still be around chat to a decent degree, and I was gonna say it won't affect posting but I think all my characters in active versions are dead anyways right now. xD

I shall probably be posting less frequently between the 11th and 19th of July, as I'll be in Poland. Or posting more frequently because no PhD obligations, who knows? Assume reduced activity until evidence suggests otherwise though.
Will be seeing family/friends from the 24th to the 27th, should hopefully still have some time to post (especially during the five hour coach trips I'll be making...) but will otherwise not be as active as usual.

I meant to post this here a week ago but I was trying REAL HARD to wrap up Tatsumichi's death. But now that's done so! I currently have a girlfriend-like-creature inside of my flat who will be staying here for the next two weeks! I've managed to find time to slap out a couple of posts, so I should be able to do so again if there's anything high-urgency, but otherwise my focus will be entirely on them, because I am Gay

My internet connection is down at home for now. So the only way I can be on here is in a different location, but I won't be able to use discord or be on the board at the weekends. I don't know when my connection will be back. But I will be able to get posts out if I have to.

I'm gonna be posting less often. I don't wanna get into why. People who know me can probably guess.
This may lead to an Away eventually.

Got Christmas weekend vacation over at my grandparents from December 23 to a possible 26.
I'm bringing my computer, but I'm most likely going to spend time with family, so chill, pls.
