I feel kinda weird texting in public transit. I can't do it in the bus because it makes me motion-sick, but I'm fine with doing it in the train or subway. Still, when I look up and see everyone else doing it, I'm just like... why? Why is everyone doing this? Why am I doing it? So I just stop and awkwardly stare. Does anyone have that feeling? How do you cope with it? » Continue Reading
I decided to give the new ranked matches a try in Pokémon TCG Pocket. I got a lvl. 9 guy named William with an Eevee icon three out of my first four times. I also got a Matt, Nick, and James. Their decks use more than the two or three cars types you're allowed, I swear William has all of them. I saw fighting, fire, dark, psychic, and steel in their decks. And they always put their energies in the ... » Continue Reading
I don't see any reason why Microsoft decided to make Windows 11 when it looks pretty much like Windows 10, except they made stuff like the File Explorer look worse, I can't open the calendar on the bottom-right corner half the time, and it won't let me try out any workarounds to their AI stuff anymore. It could've just been Windows 10.5 and we all would've hated it the same. It also wants every ap... » Continue Reading
That's what one of my professors said to me when I visitied campus after graduation. I finally got a job in my field of study, I didn't know what was in store for me at the time, and he was telling me about his gigs and classes and how he and multiple colleagues have to work in two universities just to make ends meet. I asked how he was able to get so much work. He said he was given a few classes ... » Continue Reading
I just saw a video this morning about the alliance between Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso, and the person in the video mentioned the Tuareg rebels and the unrecognized Azawad region in Mali. I'm not sure why, but this piqued my interest. Who are the Tuaregs? Why do they claim the Azawad region is theirs? There seems to be a deep history behind it, but I don't see many resources about it outsude of ... » Continue Reading
This is going to be one of the more important things you learn about me now that things are (already??) getting warmer - I melt if it's anywhere above 60°F. It is currently 63°F. The humidity is only about 25% so it's dry all things considered, but my body is treating it like it's summer. I'm guessing this is only going to get worse as the years go on, both due to age and the warming climate. I al... » Continue Reading
I feel over the moon right now because I found a friend I haven't seen since from high school, and turns out he works across the street from my workplace! This town just keeps getting better and better! I love the town I'm working in so much and I'm so glad I got to move closer to it instead of having to quit in order to move farther inland. I get to be in wonderful spaces with wonderful friends o... » Continue Reading
Burnt my hand while making ramen. It's not bad anymore, but my thumb and pinky still sting a bit. I got a cooling pack wrapped in a towel, thanks to my roommate. I did figure out that boiled apple slices taste good, and they taste good with ramen. And I found out how much two cups of water actually is (I think I used double that). But now I realize it wasn't very filling... so now I'm hungry again... » Continue Reading
Hey cool, I can post on mobile now. This is great. :D I've been thinking about the ton of photos and videos I have on my phone and in Google Photos... I don't think I have a good place to store them. At least the ones with my face on them. I've looked at Instagram alternatives and none of them really speak to me. Idk, I'll find a solution one day. I'll also have to figure out how to reset my passw... » Continue Reading
I'm finally moving out into my own place. Well, sorta. It's been a while since I treated something as a permanent stay, so idk how long this is going to be for, or if this going to work out. There's a lot of uncertainty. For starters, idk how to pack, or who's going to help me pack. I don't know how much money I have to pay upfront. I don't know how to get a bed. There's a lot of contributing fact... » Continue Reading
I have such a hard time doing laundry, and it doesn't help that where I'm at rn doesn't have the best location for a washer and dryer (It cold and dirty, and that's where the cat's stuff is). Glad I'm moving out at the end of the month. But laundry's the first step I need to take in order to start packing. Also, I ran out of bananas so I can't have peanut butter sandwiches anymore. And I'm finishi... » Continue Reading
Well, I guess I like trying new stuff randomly in the middle of the night. I never got the chance to use MySpace in its heyday, but I hope this is something that fills the void I've been feeling for several months now. So, uh, welcome. » Continue Reading
