Plays absolutely fine to me. Maybe play a bit longer to get a feel for it.
You also shouldn’t be focusing too much on getting two buffs. There are multiple situations where keeping a single buff is just fine.
Single roll GM and Crit are always fine. Single roll cooldowns is great if AR is 30ish seconds away. And combo or jolly rogers isn’t the worst roll to keep if you have it and just need to dps through a trash pack.
The only absolutely terrible buff is energy regen since lucid dreams removed even the slight benefit it provided.
I wouldn’t complain, and I doubt others would, if load dice was built into the spec at some point. Or at least moved from the row it’s in because alacrity is just too damn good.
I’d say stick it out and try to get a better feel for the averages. Sure you’ll get some bad single buff streaks, but in the grand scheme of things this isn’t a huge issue. Your biggest DPS loss/variance is going to come from your SS procs anyways.
Also, you may want to try to dump some of your haste and mastery for some crit/vers. Obviously sims will tell you what’s best but mastery and haste drop off in value real quick. I’m at 11ish haste and 23ish mastery and crit/verse both give me twice the dps from haste or mastery in single and AoE. It might help even out your damage variance a bit.

Eh, single GM isn’t always fine. It’s pretty bleh for single target. For pure single target, I’d reroll anything that’s not single crit or 2+.
For cleave/AoE, single GM is fine. Single broadsides is fine. And single crit is super fine.
My dice seem to be weighed to favor single TB rolls. Is there an add on that tracks your roll history? That would be fun to see 
I miss when TB also reduced cloak.
Pretty new to rogue. What’s wrong with it?
Nothing really, if you keep the correct rolls. Except of course getting crappy rolls over and over again.
They need to remove RtB and make SnD great again…

I think they should remove SnD, make alacrity baseline, and give us 3 talents on that tier worth choosing. RtB is fine. Your damage variance is SS procs and the class is finally getting to a solid spot insofar as damage and class rotation.

This. The entire 90 row needs to be scrapped and redesigned.
SnD exists to give people who don’t like the severe RNG of RtB the option to trade some DPS for a more stable rotation. However if they could actually manage to balance RtB and keep the buffs fairly close in power you wouldn’t need a less random option in the first place.
Alacrity is a passive stat buff and has still been the unquestionably best talent in the row for 3+ years and multiple expansions. That is terrible, terrible talent design. Make it baseline or get rid of it altogether, I don’t care, but as a talent it has to go.
Loaded Dice is just bad. It was a waste of gold trait in Legion and is a waste of a talent now. Just get rid of it (or make it baseline, whatever.)

I get what people are saying and i aggree with some things but blizzard won’t fix it til 9.0 . Outlaw is a mess held together by out of control AoE. To fix it requires major changes that they will never put it mid expac.
The only way to fix outlaw would be to lift rtb out along with it supporting talent and do a full revamp. So see yah in 9.0.
