Utter genius.
If it makes you feel better I have a presentation to deliver in three weeks and so far I have created the deck in Google docs and given it a name. I’ve known about this for a month.
I feel like last minute preparation actually made my presentations better. YMMV but if you actually have a decent grasp of the subject matter speaking is not a problem, your slides will be condensed and have only the necessary info. Some of my peers had slides upon slides of text, verbatim from their oral part. You don’t need 20 slides in a 10 minute presentation.
Less is more and just wing the oral bit, just put bare minimum salient info on the slides which will serve as key talking points if you forget something.
I took smoke that copium...
But I will say that I am an excellent DM because I can respond to my players doing weird random shit. I learn enough about a system to be able to judicate on rules quickly and know when to introduce mechanics to RP. I also prepare (lightly) a few encounters for environments I expect the party to be in.
I don't use minis, d&d beyond, or virtual tabletop so I can keep things improvised.
You've got a friend in me. Thanks Executive Dysfunction!
My best writing was always the night before something was due.
Night before? Pshh. Tell me when it's the morning of.
I haven't even put pants on since last may. Too much stuff to think about.
You hunt criminals in your underwear? What are you, Captain Underpants?!
I agree, skirts and dresses way more comfortable sometimes.
Congrats!
You go girlfriend!
Livin the dream!
Undecided? Is that a backhanded way to say non-binary?
I sent wedding documents 3 days before the time limit for the govt to receive it.
I have learned to never again manage any paperwork for someone else than myself. I think I was close to a stroke at the end.
Undecided about what? lol.
