You better be taking care of yourself, Alex! I’m worried about you with so much travel and stress. You’re setting yourself up to get horribly sick as your body’s way of forcing you to slow down. Hugs.
This was a great opportunity to discuss some of the new features that will be released with the Horrified Cthulhu. They are making it compatible with their Greek Monster set and have a huge mission for Cthulhu.
Economy has shown that inflation has gone down drastically, but corporate greed is the top driving factor currently. So anyone who keeps telling you it's inflation, it's not, evidence from various country reserves show that. We're now in greedflation.

Being fired only happens in cases of gross misconduct.
Trademarking a common use word or term is a great way to get me not to buy your products. Green Stuff world did it with color shift paint. Which was a term in use in the auto industry for a long time. Does it personally affect me? No. I just don’t like supporting these kind of petty corporate tactics.
