Do you roleplay differently in private?

I was just working on my current Ironsworn story at work, and I suddenly wondered about whether I considered it to be personal or private, or how I would feel if someone started watching over my shoulder. It made me think if I would roleplay differently if I knew someone else was watching or would read the story later....

Masculism vs. Masculinism

I found this interesting Wikipedia entry about masculism/masculinism.

Just starting out, deciding how to do filtration

Hey guys, I'm just starting to acquire gear to start my first reef tank. I've got a 40B aquarium and am trying to decide whether to splurge for a sump and the hassle/risk of a HOB overflow (not drilling holes because Aqueon is known to be using tempered glass for more than just bottom panes lately) or if I should just get a...

11th Gen laptop 1 second intermittent charging
