Second for Journey, it's a master class in non-dialogue storytelling, and it's just a beautiful game all around. I got introduced to it through its music (via a cover artist) and have fallen in love with the game.
Initially it was Animal Crossing: Wild World. One of my parents' coworker's daughter was babysitting me before school when I was in 3rd grade and she had the game on her DS and I fell in love with it. Still have the copy I got to this day. However, I wouldn't say I fully got into the hobby until The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess (Wii). TP especially got me to fall in line with video games as a storytelling medium artistically and narratively.
Don't listen to your parents; for all of the advice out there in the world that says that your parents know what's best for you and want that for your future, that does not apply here. Also it's okay to be gay and agender, so go slay and get a sweet boyfriend.
Effectively, console manufacturers should agree on some kind of standard architecture, which, to be very realistic and blunt (apologies as this isn't necessarily the tone of the post, but I like trying to make things work in some way), as long as Nintendo is in the console game, it's gonna be a bit difficult (unless we just let them do whatever they want console-wise and have the others create some kind of standard home console arch). As someone who is dipping their toes into game development, that is something I would love to see.
The manager if one of my jobs is on vacation and because that leaves me, another person, and three new hires (one of which hasn't been showing up for her correct shifts), I'm scheduled to work every single day until my last day (Thursday). I had to go directly from that job to my other job today. I'm dying inside.
Pay off mine friends and my student loans, pay for moving costs to a European country for me and my friends, pay for US citizenship denouncing for me and my friends, set aside an amount of money for myself and my friends for savings to live comfortably, pay for first month's rent for me and my friends, pay for food for a month for me and my friends, and then if there happens to be anything left, donate it to charities.
Mine'll have to be Doctor Who and The Good Place. The Good Place is just a nice, comfy comedy show with a really good message and Doctor Who is my comfort show.
I will definitely be considering LWT when I look for apps to self-host once I move out of my current place (long story). Might even look into developing a better UI if I get the time.
I have looked at Anki before and I am familiar with it. I have a few decks on there, one for German via Nicos Weg and another for Japanese Kanji Radicals via Wanikani (I think that's what it's called). I suppose re "fringe" languages, it's only as good as the decks, and there might be some out there for them.
Anyway, I feel like Anki alone isn't enough for me. I can sometimes get a little demotivated to study for a day or two and then I'm set back in my studies (or at least I feel that way).
I've been trying to ditch my shitty cafe job for a less shitty cafe job somewhere else. And my current job wants to promote me to shift lead (even though they know I'm applying to various places). But in any case, I live in an at-will state, so I really don't have any requirement to stay on if they promote me, and if I do get a better job I still intend on giving a notice to my current one.
Potentially for my next device, I'll look for it (and I'll keep my eyes peeled for builds for my current device in the meantime). I already have this one so with diminishing returns, I'm gonna use the phone I have with the stock OS if that's what I have to use (with as much de-googling and privacy-mindful configuration as possible). Potentially when I do get a new device, I might end up working on a build for the one I currently have.
But yeah, I'm not presently in the market for a new phone and I needed a cheap one quickly when I bought this one as at the time I was transitioning out of a phone my roommate had lent me at the time. It works and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about privacy-proofing this thing as much as is feasible.
As a non-binary person who is learning German, I've taken to using the nim pronouns, but I do understand the slow adoption of neopronouns. Tbh I'd probably be fine with er pronouns if I didn't want to explain my pronouns every time someone wanted to talk to/about me.
