So if Mira doesn't have her big talk in the last run and neither does Isa, what if, just hear me out- they talked to each other.

'thats not his role in the story!' hm i wonder what the point of it is then. hm i wonder what the dead pixel scene means. hm i wonder what wrong organ are trying to say with the context of 'awesome male friendship' and 'corporate hell where the only woman onboard is constantly under ridicule, abused or forcibly forgotten yet is the catalyst' if not this. hm i wonder how curly's physical agony being a direct parallel to anya's mental agony, stripped of voice, agency, just like her, and being forced to watch what happens while not doing jack shit, just like he used to, plays a part in this. i wonder what the moral of him being the final girl says about living with the consequences of your inaction, because of sentimentality, because of status, career and social. hm i wonder whatever the fuck this game was trying to say. hm i wonder what else is on this person's blog Oh Lord there's yaoi penice.

#mouthwashing #mouthwashing spoilers #sa mention #dont go after this person but i hooooope they rethink. their view of the story.#but god im gonna squeeze lemons in my eyes soon #taking this game away from yall until you unlearn misogyny #ooooh curlys just sooo sweet poor thaaang oh my oh my youre looking sooo far into thissss haaahaaa #its all just a misunderstanding!!!! anya didnt speak clearly enough!!!! noooo its not on my beautiful blue eyed rascal hahaaa #ok look curlys an insane character i love analyzing him and i VERY MUCH dont want people to think im like villanizing the guy #the entire point is that otherwise pretty chill people can fuck up OF THEIR OWN FAULT AND BIAS and then learn. painfully. what not to do.#and by chill i also dont mean holy water pure ok. distinctions.#and id really hate people taking either side of the argument on curlys morality. esp considering his appearance (for both.)#just don't. fucking make baby ass black and white arguments #this game should be behind a childproof lock in the shape of a reading comprehension test abt crime and punishment #im super supportive of people trying to think outside the norm about art like mouthwashing and explaining their own musings #and talking with others and trying to understand how to argument their thoughts which is what the op of the post this was left on was doing #being genuinely curious and open #but brother i draw the line at so merrily denying the main fucking point of the character in the catalyst event #GOOD GOD make this game only accessible to 35+ yo's with no internet access #the contents of their blog were just the cherry on top #unblocking them in hopes they see this ig

our cat broke his hip on christmas

hi, your local guy-with-a-blog is here to dox himself so his cat can walk again!

i made posts earlier as this was happening, but now that i've heard back from enough vets to get an idea of how steep this is going to be, i can't not ask for help.

its cheesy to say, but my cats are my everything. mordred, especially, spends his days basically glued to my side. he's my little shadow, and i don't know where i'd be without him.

when he woke me up to feed him at 6am on christmas morning, he was completely fine. i went back to sleep after, and when i woke up for real at 8, he was limp on the ground. when we went to move him, he howled and thrashed like we were torturing him. he ran, and we saw he wasn't using his right back leg.

many tears and an anxiety riddled 4 hour wait for our emergency vet appointment later, we were told he had a right capital physeal fracture, which basically means he snapped the ball bit of the ball joint in his hip. the vet said the best option for him is a femoral head and neck ostectomy (FHO), which'll take the broke bit of his bone out and the scar tissue will sort of just grow in the right way to replace his missing joint (cats are so weird)

its the cheapest option, and its the one with the best success rate, which is super lucky. unfortunately, its still expensive as fuck.

weve been quoted anywhere between 3.5k and 8k by vets i've contacted so far, and most need at least half as a downpayment before they'll operate. it'd take us years to cover the full cost by ourselves. so we've got to break out the big guns - a full gofundme, which will be shared with basically everyone we know, and hopefully far past that as well. carecredit can only cover so much for us, and our immediate family can't afford to lend us much. the internet is our only hope for meeting the full cost and getting mordred better

mordred's the light of my life and i can't stand to see him in pain like this. anything helps. if youre not in a financial state where you can donate, spreading the word is just as important and just as deeply appreciated.

thank you so much for getting this far.

our gofundme is here

#ive never really been so desperate for an assistance post to take off before i dont know what to tag this as #but its breaking my heart to look at him and know im so far from being able to fix him #rbs appreciated #anything appreciated even just kind words to make me feel a little less helpless #i hate living in a HCOL area i keep seeing vets in the south wholl do it for under 2k and it makes me want to cry #if i didnt think the trip would be immensely painful for him id just do it like that

dropout people, if you are seeing this, please release the recipes (if the chefs are ok with that of course). I would really like to try them. They all looked very tasty. :)

#gastronauts #im half jocking tbh #like i know id you didnt think about this early while signing contracts with the chefs and all #this might not be possible.#also since you cant really deposit document in the dropout ott #(at least as far as im aware)#this would require either making a whole website #or deposing them somewhere like here #but if it was possible?#that would be so tasty #anyway watch gastronauts if you havent already

i would like to say my ideal PJO adaptation (if i was being physically forced against my will to have to pick a live action adaptation over an animated one for some reason) would be a combo like writing of the musical + casting of the show + visuals of the movies

BUT the show actually does have the playwright for the musical as one of the major writers for like three episodes and that did nothing for it. so...

#pjo #riordanverse #pjo tv crit #i do love the casting for the musical lots and lots though #it was really good #i do also have some nitpicks for show casting but they're largely inconsequential #like majority i very much enjoy and think are cast well #i only have one i'd say im actually disappointed with and that's Poseidon. idk he just feels. bland??? does that make sense?#like idk maybe it's the costuming but im not getting Sea God *or* Fishing Dad from him #like i think i kinda see what they were going for and i saw some gifs of him in another show where he plays a pirate and its like #okay. *little* bit better. but idk im just not getting Poseidon from it #in general most of the immortals in the show dont feel very Immortal(tm) but thats definitely mostly just the writing/show itself #not any reflection of the casting #my only other two are i would have liked plus sized Clarisse. i am VERY sad we didnt get that #Dior is a VERY good Clarisse though so i'm not too upset about it. i like her Clarisse energy. the yelling is fantastic.#my most controversial pjo tv take is im still meh on Walker. like he's fine. but like he's kind of Just Fine to me so far #its probably mostly the writing being bad but he hasnt grown on me as Percy yet. i can tell he has the energy though in interviews n stuff #and the main trio dynamic in interviews and stuff is *very* good. i just wish the show writing was better #because the casting IS very good but they have so little to work with. you can really tell theyre trying their best #i like to joke the show would be better if they just set the cast loose in the woods doing in-character improv #like its clear basically all of them know their characters SUPER well. id watch 8 episodes of in the woods pjo cosplay improv.

new possible explanation for why my japanese curry is gloopy in australia but not in sweden: the potatoes i use here may be more starchy

#i tried putting more water and it still glooped up #and i made it EXACTLY THE SAME over there so i really didnt think it was the water 😭😭😭#but this (suggested by my ma) makes the most sense so far....#id thought it was the oil initially cos that was the biggest conscious difference #but i tried with different types of oil and it still glooped up...#i think she was onto something with the potatoes

anyways. my very first attempt at malenia

#elden ring #my post #this starts late (?) bc i didnt want to get the cutscene in the clip but fumbled to start the recording bc she does kinda rush you #and i was not at all prepared #anyways im genuinely tempted to just write a long post dumping my thoughts on malenia and her fight and how im puzzling through it #ive reached peak intrinsic motivation elden ring #the only reason why i probably should wait to make the post is bc ive only gotten as far as first phase half health #i have another recording thats abt a minute and a half long attempt and i gave it a few tries today #its worth mentioning that the night before i decided to finally start fighting malenia i told my friend (who managed to beat her) that bc #a lot of the last few endgame bosses didnt take me too long to beat i was worried that malenia wouldnt take me very long #and he just told me she would throw me into a meat grinder. and i lasted 12 seconds against her after that intro cutscene #anyways the fact that she's a very straightforward and easy to see boss makes it very easy to break her down and figure out how she #works n why she's hard and figure out a plan and everything i really like it. no particle effects just some sparks and sword trail lines #i keep getting caught by her flurry attack n today my plan (while talking to my friend) was to figure out why i kept getting caught by #it despite it being very obviously telegraphed n then putting together why i struggle with it. its REALLY fun to think technically abt her #anyways. fun part abt me getting killed by the grab + impale is that i honestly wasnt sure if that was actually implemented in the game #bc id never seen it in gameplay and. here we go. ten seconds in there it is

do i really want to make individual drinks again

#reaching back into the file cabinets of my mind to remember how i made certain drinks when i worked at the cafe #in preparation for the possibility of this new job #it would certainly mean far less goofing off time than i have at my current job. and i value my goofing off time dearly #but the people here are so fucking annoying lmao. i hate them soooo much #not that the people at this new job would be any better. we're still dealing with investment bankers #godddddd. what i really would want (which would be impossible)#would be to go back to working at the cafe but like. still have paid time off and insurance lmao #but the cafe was a small business and he was not offering paid time off and insurance. and the pay was way less #but i did get to play whatever music i wanted. unfortunately you cant live on that #like i can always say no to this new job if its offered to me. but is my goofing off time worth:#2 dollars less in pay and a half hour to an hour's more commute. well i dont know #a shorter commute would mean i could sleep more. and have more time at home .#i mean i probably don't Need all this goofing off time. but its nice #i dont knowwwwwww #like even though im a bit nervous abt doing it again i know that i would easily fall back into the routine of making drinks #which i was fairly good at. my one drawback is that i cant do latte art but i dont know that theyd really care here #and (because i found the menu of where id work) theres not a ton of drink options?? just the standard stuff #its being called a starbucks cafe but 1) its not managed by them and 2) it does not have their 5 billion drink options #so thats good. less to worry about #doesnt look like i even have to make anything foodwise which i had to at the cafe #here it looks like people can just buy a pastry and thats it #the hours are like. the same i work now. also good #sorry im like using this post to think through my thoughts.#uhhhh oh i looked up the manager who looks like a weenie so im not keen on the prospect of interviewing with him #but i probably would have thought that about my current manager if id seen a pic of him prior to interviewing. i guess???#and with these kind of catering units it seems you dont often deal directly with the manager that much anyway #i just gotta see if i get good vibes #rn i have unsure vibes. but i need a sign to see if this could be good for me #oh id also save money on transportation. and taxes! bc i wouldnt be working in ny anymore #lol oops tag limit. well i hope you enjoyed my job thoughts you probably didnt i know i didnt

bro i feel so bad for my classmates in my chinese class.... the difficulty has ramped up and boy are some of them struggling. I'm at a slight advantage since i had taken a slight bit of chinese before (slight, since covid interrupted it :/ ) and have a family member who can speak the language, but even i'm starting to be more unsure and hesitant in what i say. i have a feeling tho that our already small class is gonna get smaller... we havent hit the deadline for dropping classes yet.. so we might lose a few people :(

#josh talks #i feel bad for them since i definitely know the feeling....#and anytime someone struggles when called on i cant help but think about me being in their shoes #and how bad id feel and how my anxiety would make it so much worse #i almost want to offer help to some of them but idk how and i dont want to come across as a know it all..#plus again im not perfect at it either #we've past the point of stuff i knew from taking chinese before #in a happier note tho i think im finally making friends in this class!!#i had to ask these 2 guys who sit near me if i could join their group for a presentation we have to do #and they sounded happy to let me join and didnt hesitate in saying yes!#but yeah anyway if u didn't know i take chinese then now you know more Josh Lore #im still veerrryyy beginner #but if anyone who follows me speaks mandarin..... maybe someday later we could talk a bit..?#it really help to practice more with other speakers #谢谢! Thanks for reading this far if ur reading this #i know i tend to ramble a lot lmao

Delighted to announce that my story has officially reached novella length! I truly didn't think it would get this far, and didn't think I would be able to stick with it to get it this long. According to Wikipedia, a novella is 17,500-40,000 words, and I'm currently at 17,714. And I'm going to keep writing for awhile tonight. I'm just super proud of this
