Another year has come and gone, leaving us undeniably older and presumably wiser, though at this point it’s hard for me to tell if each new year of knowledge outpaces the mental erosion of aging.

I’m really good at forgetting stuff! It’s probably what I’m best at! It does not make me a better thinker or critic!

Summer 2023 – Week 1 in Review
Hello folks, and welcome back to Wrong Every Time. Today I’m doing my best to beat this grotesque summer humidity, while also recovering from the fatigue of running my first D&D session in a month.
