I realized recently it's been over a year since I was last home.
Over a year since I've ever seen anyone from my world, even.
And that year has been kind of a mess.
Now I'm two crazy worlds removed from home, and it's not looking like I'll get to go back anytime soon.
It's just now really starting to sink in.
I'm starting to get homesick, I guess.
But I know there's a bunch of people here who have been here even longer than I have.
Or have a lot more pressing things to get back to.
So... How do you cope?
How can you deal with this for so long?
After this long, my usual distractions aren't really working so well anymore.

people get easier
they're kind of predictable when you pay attention to the right things

here's a tip free of charge
everyone wants something
could be selfish, could be nice, doesn't matter there's something they want
that's the big equalizer

I call bullshit
unless someone is ready to die
there has to be something
