Hey y'all!

I'm beset with technical difficulties, which has thoroughly ruined the Halloween surprise I had for y'all.

Patreon is being weird with me and the Dashingdon site isn't letting me log in, so I must once again ask for your patience while I figure things out. All I ask is that you pretend it's Oct 31st once I finally get it out to you, lol.

finished my term paper📑

I did it!! 4623 words, 13 pages in total and 2 Saturday nights spent actually writing the thing. I’m pretty happy with the results and hope my teachers thinks so too.

Gotta talk about the fails of it though- I forgot all human needs and was starving afterwards…had Burek as a midnight snack :) then I wanted to print out my term paper but guess what: my printer died on page 3/13. mid sentence. great. it keeps trying to start printing but then it crashes and tries again and so on…I’ll try to fix it tomorrow morning, for now I sent my teacher a pdf so I at least have it handed in that way.

there was meant to be more, but…

The old girl said, “Nope, I’m done,” and with no explanation or fanfare, blip, she turned off. That was that.

And I do think this computer might be my spirit animal. She has done so much good work, and she is tired. But despite my deep respect for this old machine, it unfortunately means no more sims from me for a little bit (hopefully) or possibly a while.

It might be the power supply, considering how it just went out like it did. I ordered a new charger block, so we’ll find out on Friday. If it’s not the power supply, then I’ll probably just call it a good run for this 13-year-old laptop and let her rest in peace.

Please pray for my backups! I shouldn’t lose too much. But my most recent whole backup was probably a month ago. Maybe two. 😬

edit: it’s three months. My backup is dated September 29th. 😖

Luckily, I’m never able to work too far ahead of where I’m posting, so most of whatever sims pictures I had would already be posted here. And it seems like I can download them in their full size. Any of my recent writing and WIPs should mostly be on Google docs. And since I’ve mostly been in storytelling mode in the past months, my saves haven’t made much progress that I can’t easily recreate. No new babies have been born and I haven’t done too much building lately except for throwaway things.

I was looking forward to playing a little Christmas with my sims. But, as it would turn out, the last picture I took was of Stephanie contracting a severe bacterial infection and her holiday was about to end up in bed on antibiotics, lol! So maybe she’s glad that I’ll probably lose that progress and we can end instead with some cute pixel kittens.

And now it’s time to transition to spending holiday time with my family. I will be around to enjoy reading and liking all of your holiday posts. Sorry, I won’t have any more of my own to share.

I hope everyone who celebrates has a wonderful, warm, and cozy Christmas. 🎄🎁🍪🎅🎄

one great thing about Citation Needed is how it's entertaining even if you don't understand half the references they're making. Tom describes something funny from the article he's reading, and Gary responds "that's like when Dave Wendleston monologued about crusty beans in Brecklemore while wearing a flatcher on his head!" and Chris adds "if John Stroderberg was there I imagine it would've caused a lot more snaughter" and then Matt points out "well, he wouldn't have been able to hold his prensies, would he? he'd need like a Duke Graham-sized cronket for that" and you have no idea what they all have been laughing about for the entire past minute but their sheer chaotic energy keeps your amusement unspoiled

I'm on the original @where-is-tom-scott-today blog

Sidenote: I may have to do op's and not re-uploads - technically speaking that could be copyright infringement I guess only time will tell if I have time to make more :p

I got to stream a little bit of beyond the bet on twitch today. Twitch was acting really weird though and I couldn't see a preview of my stream. Probably going to stick with YouTube to stream from how on.

SPOILERS FOR BEYOND THE BET

I love grim so much! Beyond the bet is so freaking good so far!! Literally finding out they can get hurt if the other is hurt!!??? It's crazy!! I'm not done with it yet but I'm so afraid of what might happen next!! I'm excited for the cute romantic moments in the game, but I'm so excited to get more cool lore and I JUST WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING THATS GOING ON IM SO EXCITED AHHHHHH

I want to make a theory video so bad but I need to finish the game first lol

Look at how cute he is!!! 🥰🤭

Um, what's the matter with Diomedes's arrow during the hunt chapter? MC can take it or leave it, and upon taking it the text kind of hints on it maybe being useful later, as MC takes care to wrap the arrow in fabric. But there is no variable to track if the arrow was taken, so it doesn't matter at all?

Maybe I have something very clever and detailed planned for that arrow.

Or maybe it doesn't matter at all...

(Or maybe I just made a note of the variable and didn't formally add it in because I was tired and knew I'd be working on the stat page and variables like I am now.)

update from my desk, 11pm.

had to take a longer break because I was unable to access the materials but I’m back at it now. Feeling rather insecure in my knowledge but I’ll make it work tomorrow. All that matters is that I pass
