For me it's contentment. A satisfaction in where I am and who I am. Being able to see the beauty and appreciate the small things. No need for more. And no longer comparing myself at my worst to others at their best.

I cook large batches of stew every now and then, freeze in 2 or 3 portion packages. Then each sunday I prep some carbs, defrost and pasteurize stew and put it all together. Boom! Lunches ready to go into the work microwaves.
And Denmark is the jizz! The spunk.

It is something. The folk-punk-americana (?) have snatched my heart and I enjoy it
It can also tie into mandatary rests, that the vehicle has to be stationary. And that is good thing as it makes it harder for emplyers to exploit their drivers.
So there is another one who brew in a french press!
I wouldn't mind a good quality stupid action movie. Popcorn, laughter and a bit of over the top acting.
Apocalypse World, the system that spawned the PbtAs, have a pronciple for the GM
Play to find out
For me that is the guiding light. I play to find out. There is no plot, no story. Only the situation the game finds itself in. I dont know where it will go. But I do know where it starts and who is involved.
As for managing the chaos I use two tools. First is only call for a roll when it really, really matters. When there are consequences. Second is something that can have fallen out of favor in more recent PbtAs and that 8s clearly defined Threats along with the moves they take and a few clocks/fronts. That way when I need to Play to find out I have tools to keep it contained. Which also ties into only testing when it matters because there are a threat or two involved.
Or put in another way: Read and absorb Apocalypse World.
I think I would love to use some shoes that track how uneven my gait(?) is and if I need mismatched soles to correct it. An uneven walk can ruin hips.
Running a full phys party and am about to leave act1 island. This is about as far as I've ever come. The party
Red lizard guy (MC) - Warrior/necro "Eternal warrior"
Fane - Tank with a bit of geo
Ifan - Summoner/ranger
Sebile - necromancer/buffer
I am thinking of ditching this party to return to the all-magic party that just have left fort Joy. Think I enjoyed that one better. The all-magic party
Lohse (MC) - Hydro/Aero
Fane - Geomancer
Beast - Hydro tank/melee
Sebile - summoner/buffer
Lets do some wild improvisation!
It promts me to a) just fukkin do it and b) not expect perfection
II know things doesn't scale but I would love a AA cRPG at BG3 standard but a fifth of the length. Then I may actually finish it. 20-30h experience would be just great.
