I've not read the books, but that does describe Q decently, though I think the show probably toned it down a bit from things I hear others say.

The Magicians. It's like a more mature and dark Harry Potter/Chronicles of Narnia crossover. It has really good character development and isn't afraid to have fun with things like musical numbers and self aware plotlines. The first season is the weakest of the bunch, but it's still pretty good. So give it a chance past then if you are still on the fence.

I got an uncomfortable cooling sensation that couldn't be wiped off. It made the headache worse.

I'm pretty sure they mean The Magicians by Lev Grossman

I'm imagining that same instance still stuck open for years until you found out.

This may be obvious, but I want to add that you should skip if you are injured. Noting that being sore from a previous workout is not the same as an injury. Also, if you are significantly sleep deprived it may be worth skipping, since you won't be adequately recovered and that could also lead to injury. You will miss more days if you make an injury worse than if you play it safe and take time to heal. A day or two missed won't ruin all your progress. Just don't make up excuses.

I saw it too. Did we hop timelines?

I have no experience with this, but I found this guide. https://www.startrek-gaming.com/how-to-get-a-final-unity-running-on-a-windows-10-computer/

If you happen to be on linux, there are likely guides out there for that, too. I would think there is a decent amount of overlap of people who want to play old Star Trek games and people who are interested in linux.

I'm not the best communicator while not distracted to begin with. Often struggling to verbalize a thought or find a word I can't remember for some reason. If I am focused on talking, though, I can usually get by well enough and even be a bit witty, especially if its not face-to-face communication. However, if I'm doing something else, like doing something with my hands at work, and someone tries to talk to me, I stumble over what I'm saying quite a lot. Banter is nearly impossible. I can normally have a bit of back and forth with someone and throw some funny quips in, but in these situations I just end up saying something stupid and often taking things too literally, only to immediately internally regret my choice of words as I properly process the conversation in the next moment.

I think it's because conversation takes a good bit of processing power for me to have flow "naturally". Any sort of distraction diverts some of that processing power and impedes my conversational ability. It can be pretty frustrating since everyone seems to want to talk while working and it just doesn't work for me.

Do any of you share a similar experience? If so, how do you deal with it?
