What Are You Thinking?

Listening to epic fantasy playlists while writing my thesis makes me feel like European Union Procurement Directives are going to be The Magical Artifact That Saves the World.

I'm the mighty villain telling people They Just Don't Work and making people believe it with my Sorcerer's Stone, aka This Big-Ass Pile of Books I Am Going To Cite.

The Commission of the European Union is after me, but as a Scholar Who Must Not Be Named, I am untouchable.

Completely not sure about what new game to buy.
Breath Of The Wild really raised my standards.
I want something that is enjoyable and rewarding without it being a goddamn chore.

I played Breath Of The Wild right after the 4th Fatal Frame and the difference in "satisfaction" was like day and night.
Fatal Frame was just a goddamn chore with its bulls*** movement controls and "fight phasing enemies in tiny, cramped rooms because it's scary!!!", while Breath Of The Wild felt rewarding at every turn, which really encourages you to keep exploring.

I'm sure people have a billion recommendations but I'm not looking for any.
Just really doubt that I'll find another game as satisfying as Breath Of The Wild.

Man, you hear about the stories of those who suffered and even for someone as cold hearted as me, it still hurts inside.

 

[therogis]

I tried to circumvent the fact that some social media platforms just annoy me a bit too much and blacklisted words like covid, several political words, human rights (lol), gay, depression, anxiety, transgender, feminism, etc. This should go without saying but I'll say it just in case anyway: the reason why I block this stuff is nothing more than that they tend to trigger toxic discussion culture and I want to protect myself from that.

Now I noticed that blacklisting the word cis blocks posts with words like 'decision'.

.....

Pfft.

Sehän meni ku Strömsössä. I'll write a crappy poem as a reward for whoever figures the approximate meaning of that in English.

Okay so I finally found a literate rp on discord that has people that are so friggen encouraging , understanding, and wonderful! I didn’t think I could be this happy RPing again. And like I’m legit writing multiple paragraphs again and barely feeling any burnout!

And I feel like if I had a legit problem, I can go to the admin and be like “hey I’m feeling like this with someone” and they would actually deal with it! Not just tell me “yeah I’ll talk to them.” And have nothing come out of it and suddenly tell me that they don’t want to get in the middle of it. And get mad at me for not pretending things are okay.

… I’m just… happy right now with this new group!

I got exactly what I wanted and now I am unhappy. I have issues...

On a funnier side, I have a notebook with a dinosaur on it. LOVE. IT!

Discord RPs, you say?! Where can I find them?
Also have I already told you where I met my spouse

I'm soooo tired. Not sure if I mentioned it somewhere but a bathroom renovation was informed to start 'some time this year'. They should've informed us about the exact timeframe at least two weeks prior to that but they screwed it up and informed us one day before it so yea, it's been a hassle.

Meanwhile, I'm getting a seat in the executive board of an association – sure, an honorable position and tbh I'm flattered about it, but the invitation to the selection event got lost (and no, not like """got lost """, it got lost) and I was informed about it on Saturday as the event is this week.

I haven't had time to go to the hacklab and I haven't been to the missionary stuff in the whole month. I have barely touched my guitar, opened the Bible, or gone for a run.

At least my dissertation is getting together pretty well... my head, not so much.

Pffffffft.......having stoke system on your laptop is advantage instead purchasing for a laptop that not having an system (No insult for people that build their PC or pay their laptop without system but having default system is advantage itself ).
And because win11 broke my update service I can only receive scrutiny updates (Which I'm ok with it ) but for win10 small updates is buggy .
I refreshed my laptop and done some settings and installed my programs again.
My data is on a portable hard drive and the process for me will be faster to back to pervious point and don't worry about my photoshop projects they're safe on hard drive .

Me: Oh this is bad@ss, let me check out the DLC.

Internet: Sorry this DLC has been delisted. Sucks to be you.

Me: Damn you Japan!

1. You just witnessed the Scunthorpe Problem in real time.
2. Your mistake is having a social media profile. The whole of social media is built on making content as inflammatory as possible to enrage people into "engaging" with the site. Here's a thesis on why Web 2.0 was a mistake and Web 3 is going to be worse--
3. Is the saying meant with sarcasm, or no?
4. Related: I can't believe Elon Musk looked at the internet equivalent of Dubai's sewage system and thought "Yeah I wanna drop 44M dollars on it". Because the first thing you think of when the words "public square" come up is "private property with a singular owner". Yup.

The Young Justice cartoon is my favorite take on the DC universe, flaws and all.

win11 broke my update service I can only receive scrutiny updates (Which I'm ok with it ) but for win10 small updates is buggy .

FIXED THE BUG installed 2 updates manually (laughing in Victor Delacroix voice ).
I think Microsoft wants push 11 harder but this make shameful for company itself (If I'm saying something wrong please forgive me or not having knowledge in this matter ).

Edit: I did my best but when I said FIXED the update service itself is working but again the files must be installed instead giving errors .
I think Microsoft focusing more on 11 then 10 and this make me a little sad but what I can say people want stable softwere (Windows) instead buggy .

1. I had to Google that one. I didn't know that had a name! The phenomenon is familiar tho.

Spoiler

Some years back when I was an active horsegirl and competing in dressage, there was this popular forum about horses, and it hosted announcements for upcoming competitions as well. One time there was a big hassle because people couldn't post info about a certain horse race, it just returned an error message, and no one could figure out why.
Fast forward to next spring and announcements for children's summer camps on stables. There was a discussion related to summer camps and people were unable to talk about certain stable's camps. Only then people figured out that the stable that arranged the race AND the summer camp was located in Pornainen...

2. Nah. I think my mistake is avoiding conflicts in a way that goes a bit too far so it affects my daily life. But it was worth it

Spoiler

because now I was able to tell my spouse "Honey, I just blocked human rights in Tumblr"

3. Yes.

4. Elon Musk must be a meme character. I'm gonna craft a conspiracy theory about this and make money with it. Do you personally know anyone who has actually touched Elon Musk and made sure he even exists? HA! There you see it!

[explanation]

Yep. That would do it.

I would've just said you get affected too much by it. Just because the words are on the screen doesn't mean you need to be part of the discussion or feel any type of way about it. That's Twitter brainrot sh#t. But if the texts take up too much of the screen while scrolling I'd personally block it on principle just because I hate scrolling excessively to get past a single post.

Are you using xKit? It reads like you don't use it, or you're using a poor extension.

3. Yes.

I just want an excuse to use that clip.

Just say Elon Musk is an Illuminati clone and a lizardman on the same level as Mark Zuckerberg. Bam, done.

 

[therogis]

I'm trying to deal with that. Therapy is good.

Are you using xKit? It reads like you don't use it, or you're using a poor extension.

Ah, hadn't heard about it. I'm not too familiar with Tumblr nor with its extensions. I guess the reason is clear considering the context of this discussion...

In order to understand the saying you must know how that relates to Strömsö. As well as what is Strömsö.

That's mainstream. Never trust the mainstream. They're all sheep.

 

[Dark Prince]

An excuse to use this video against Mark again or as @Morgan said the lizard, what I call Zuckerberg.....a robot or an alien (Pardon me as an uninvited guest in this conversation ).

Here you go. Thank me later.

I love that video.

Also thx @Morgan !

CT, welp, it didn't go as planned, but hearing about all the stuff I would've needed to deal with, and my head shouting "this is sus as heck and I don't know if I want to be in the responsible team if the dung really hits the fan" during the discussion about it, it's better this way. In addition to me totally needing an 8th day for my week because I cannot handle everything I've got in my life even without such extra tasks. :/

Also The Little Bean falls asleep all by herself now, without a shush or a lullaby or us by her side (the maternity guidance center told us to try it), and that brings tears to my eyes because she's already so big and clever and beautiful and and and ;_;

@therogis Strawberry time ........the harvest season in north of my country is kinda I think in beginning of spring (Mostly natural then buying in market ).

Sonic 2 movie awakened the kid in me like the first movie =0

... but I really hate it when movies like Transformers or Sonic has the camera pan away to focus on "skits" involving minor characters doing stupid crap.
The skit with the random G.U.N. operative dragged on for too f***ing long...
