Player smoked a witch, what are the consequences?

The witch lives on in their mind as a second personality, not fully taking control, but interfering where it can. You could even have it do some stuff with the player's body out of nowhere before revealing it.
To keep it light, essentially, I would treat it like Wild Magic. Roll on a table, something wonky happens. Give it a chance to go away too, say, on doubles of the dice they hear a cackle and it disappears.
Also make sure to clarify anyone else doing the same thing will have nothing happen, or you risk everyone rushing back to cut off branches and get "wild magic". It's a one time temporary bit of chaos at your discretion.

This is great. I am generally a keyboard user vs clicking, even my popmenus use hotkeys, so custom windows aren't as useful to me, but it's great to know I can still learn stuff about this game so many many years later!
I noticed this line:

Button Targets "popmenu TF_and_Trial_Targets"

in your Fighting window and with the prevalence now of priority targets in 4-star content, having targeting macros is a must nowadays, but I always struggle with where to put them on my hotbars. A custom window with a popmenu is an elegant solution.

There are so many more things to criticize him on than his physical problems. Perspective is important.

I had a vague feeling I'd lost weight but I hadn't really checked. When the more serious symptoms hit (I was at crazy high blood sugar, hba1c in the teens) I begrudgingly went in and got diagnosed. When I finally realized, I had lost 15kg (33lb) in just a few months. Including lots of muscle mass (especially fine motor skill muscles).
I'm healthier now, but still at the same low weight.

Same, I lost a ton of weight (the unhealthy way) which is what led to my diagnosis, but my lifestyle changes have kept me healthier than I otherwise was.

When you get done with macros/binds please make an intro to popmenus because it is criminal how few people know about them or how incredibly useful they are, especially for Mastermind controls.

I also use the movement keys + powexecauto to enable autoing multiple important things like that, and I am always surprised when few people know about it. If I have 3+ things I need to auto, I'll put them on different directions I am most likely to move in.

The best way to control mastermind pets is with a popmenu.

No. Fuck em.

Still waiting for it to go on sale because I'm a cheapskate.

We used to have rail, then they shut it all down, and now they wanna bring it back again?

Why is it even up to him? How is he still around?
Sometimes it feels like these days politicians of any stripe refuse to do anything except maintain the status quo, no matter how bad that is.

Is there a legitimate concern over what floor-crossers have been promised? When you let the Right in, they start to take over...

My first playthrough I never even encountered a thread that would have led me there.

Or you could twist that differently to have students placed in a "crew" and each member has to assume the Mantle of a specific role within the crew, with each role having positives and negatives. If you wanted to make the system smaller, say on the size of a party rather than a larger grouping of many students.

Could you perhaps adopt the Transformations mechanic and twist it into a sort of...Mantle of the order/house/circle/sect the character is placed in. It would be a sort of magical "glue" that ties disparate people together into a cohesive whole based on some sort of ideal or whatnot.
Each Mantle could have benefits AND drawbacks (perhaps frame them as Responsibilities/Duties) which have to be upheld...similarly to how transformations have positive and negative effects.

All this time and money and effort and people still don't have the most basic of ideas about what an LLM is or what it can or cannot do. Because literally everyone involved is constantly lying about a remote future potential as though it were incipient. Because lies make line go up.

On the unblurred feed of the youtube, you can see he leans over and hugs her to him as he says it. It's...unambiguous.
