I'm still working on my stupid companion approval spreadsheet for Baldur's Gate 3, which means I play the game over and over to find all the various things that reward approval points.
This time I romanced Karlach to find all her romance-related approval points.
I randomly decided to go up to her and ask her to kiss me, and JUST
The fucking CUTEST thing took place, where my character kissed Karlach's nose, then her cheek, then her mouth, and afterwards Karlach NUZZLED my character's nose, and it was SO FUCKING CUTE I genuinely grabbed my own face and went "AUGH"
GOD. What the FUCK.

reblog this and tag with a food you no longer have access to (closed restaurant, state you moved away from, ex’s mom’s cooking, etc) that will haunt you until your dying day, mine are the spicy chicken sandwich on the employee menu at the fine dining restaurant I was a prep cook at, and the onion bagel from the kosher place down the street from my house when I lived in the city
#a childhood friend's mom's homemade pizza#i have asked for the recipe a LOT but i was always told 'there's no recipe i just throw something on it lol'#it's possible they were just not willing to share the recipe haha#ALSO THE FUCKIGN#there was a butter when i was little#it was called 'Ja' ('Yes')#that shit was delicious#i could eat a whole box of it on its own#probably unhealthy as shit#i'd love to know what happened to it but i can't even google it#'norwegian butter yes'#a billion results for anything else thank you google#in the tags

I got Whiskey new kibble a couple of weeks ago. Kibble specifically for sterilised cats that are over twelve years old, and she's thirteen now.
She didn't like it.
I would hear her eat it sometimes, but gradually she just stopped completely.
Today I went to the pet shop and got a refund for the kibble and bought the old kibble (sterilised, age 7+), plus a heap of wet food.
It's like music to my ear to hear the crunch cromch again.

It's past 11pm and I went to throw away some rubbish, and after I'd done that I just stopped for a moment before going back inside.
There were no cars on the road, there were only two people I could see in the distance. The stars were out, and despite the fact I live in the city I could still see some of them. The air was cool on my skin and the air I breathed was fresh and good.
The neighbouring apartment complexes were dotted with lights, both normal lights and Christmas lights.
It was quiet, but a sort of city quiet where there's a constant hum going, and it felt rather soothing.
So I just stood there for a moment, watching and listening and breathing. It felt nice.

bingewatching will never come close to bingereading. there is nothing like blocking out the entire Earth for ten hours to read a book in one sitting no food no water no shower no bra and emerging at the end with no idea what time it is or where you are, a dried-up prune that's sensitive to light and loud noises because you've been in your room in the dark reading by the glow of a single LED. it's like coming back after a three-month vacation in another dimension and now you have to go downstairs and make dinner. absolutely transcendental
#fun stuff#this one time i took my cat to the vet#i decided to go to the nearby mall in stead of going home while my cat was being treated#i bought a book and i read it in one sitting just in time for me to go back to the vet#books#vanja reads books

I don't know I'm not done talking about it. It's insane that I can't just uninstall Edge or Copilot. That websites require my phone number to sign up. That people share their contacts to find their friends on social media.
I wouldn't use an adblocker if ads were just banners on the side funding a website I enjoy using and want to support. Ads pop up invasively and fill my whole screen, I misclick and get warped away to another page just for trying to read an article or get a recipe.
Every app shouldn't be like every other app. Instagram didn't need reels and a shop. TikTok doesn't need a store. Instagram doesn't need to be connected to Facebook. I don't want my apps to do everything, I want a hub for a specific thing, and I'll go to that place accordingly.
I love discord, but so much information gets lost to it. I don't want to join to view things. I want to lurk on forums. I want to be a user who can log in and join a conversation by replying to a thread, even if that conversation was two days ago. I know discord has threads, it's not the same. I don't want to have to verify my account with a phone number. I understand safety and digital concerns, but I'm concerned about information like that with leaks everywhere, even with password managers.
I shouldn't have to pay subscriptions to use services and get locked out of old versions. My old disk copy of photoshop should work. I should want to upgrade eventually because I like photoshop and supporting the business. Adobe is a whole other can of worms here.
Streaming is so splintered across everything. Shows release so fast. Things don't get physical releases. I can't stream a movie I own digitally to friends because the share-screen blocks it, even though I own two digital copies, even though I own a physical copy.
I have an iPod, and I had to install a third party OS to easily put my music on it without having to tangle with iTunes. Spotify bricked hardware I purchased because they were unwillingly to upkeep it. They don't pay their artists. iTunes isn't even iTunes anymore and Apple struggles to upkeep it.
My TV shows me ads on the home screen. My dad lost access to eBook he purchased because they were digital and got revoked by the company distributing them. Hitman 1-3 only runs online most of the time. Flash died and is staying alive because people love it and made efforts to keep it up.
I have to click "not now" and can't click "no". I don't just get emails, they want to text me to purchase things online too. My windows start search bar searches online, not just my computer. Everything is blindly called an app now. Everything wants me to upload to the cloud. These are good tools! But why am I forced to use them! Why am I not allowed to own or control them?
No more!!!!! I love my iPod with so much storage and FLAC files. I love having all my fics on my harddrive. I love having USBs and backups. I love running scripts to gut suck stuff out of my Windows computer I don't want that spies on me. I love having forums. I love sending letters. I love neocities and webpages and webrings. I will not be scanning QR codes. Please hand me a physical menu. If I didn't need a smartphone for work I'd get a "dumb" phone so fast. I want things to have buttons. I want to use a mouse. I want replaceable batteries. I want the right to repair. I grew up online and I won't forget how it was!

need a bi4bi t4t m/f pairing where the girl is a giant freak and not in the "cute manic pixie" way but in the "unethical experiments in my fucked up laboratory" way and the guy is a golden retriever who thinks he can fix her. and he brings her cute bento lunches and she's like "bradley shut up put on your fucking gloves and hold this possum down so i can graft these giant grasshopper legs to it"
