I've bought from this place before when I was really into the studyblr/studygram communities (study + Tumblr and study + Instagram). But since 2020 I haven't needed to buy stuff from there anymore. Now that I have an important job and digital journals aren't just cutting it, I might have to look at investing in a journal.
Maybe I'll give it a week to see if I'm still interested in it or if it's just a hyperfixation (could be both lbr).
Yeah I've never understood how people can see it as the best game of the series. It just always felt like I was building up to what 3 was going to be.
To be fair, I think the upgraded mechanics and the character storylines are neat as (and the fact that I can romance Garrus 😍😍😍), but yeah I've never really understood why it was seen as the best in the series.
Could be that that's the first game a lot of people played? ME1 was my first game and it'll always have a special place in my heart. I think people just muddy it up because of the Mako.
That is understandable. But I've kept past journals that I'll sometimes look through. But I totally understand about the whole "expensive fancy stationery feeling like dress up".
I like late night showers. But I should stop going through my bookmarks and getting rid of things I've already bought or are sold out/not found. But I'm very tempted to spend $97.50 on a journal/diary, but I'm scared to spend that much money. But I miss having a physical journal, I used to bullet journal a lot but decided to go digital post-2020 and yeah I wasted money because I hardly used it. Might have to think about it whether I need a journal or an SSD card.
Edit: Ooo I could AfterPay it... it seems to be a very popular planner, so I don't want it sold out. Decisions decisions.
I feel like most non-Americans understand that not everything is about them.
It's the Americans that need to learn that not everything is about them. (Not saying that you don't, but there's way too many Americans I talk to who think that the world revolves around them).
Finally booked in for a physio appointment. My last one was June and I just don't feel like I'm getting any better. My normal physio is on maternity leave, so I've had to book with a new physio. I hate having to meet a new health professional because you've got to explain your life story almost. This is the same thing with doctors, psychs, councillors, etc. But here's hoping that I can get better. It's really annoying just how in pain I am everyday.
Like, I do appreciate her instilling values and teaching me how to clean (because when I was a kid she was a stay at home mum and did everything and didn't teach myself anything, you know how Mumma boys exist and they don't know how to cook or like wash clothes because their mum did it for them, that was me. Of course, now I know how to do things, so it's not like I'm completely out of the dark), but I just... ugh. I totally totally understand how you feel but like... yeah from the perspective of my me and my mum.
Also, I'm glad you loved that skit, I watch it often. I've even shown mum and she's like jokingly telling me to fuck off haha. "Get rid of the couches, we can't let people know WE SIT!" and "There can't be any sign of living in this house", I often quote those two lines, especially around routine inspections.
I think I mentioned this two weeks ago, but man, I hate being in a middle-distance relationship. It's nice that we don't live like an hour and a half away any more and it's like 20minute car rides. But ugh. I'm always going to cry like a baby whenever my partner has to go.
I know that this 2% thing Labor is doing might be a pipedream, but I need to move out. Love my mum and sister but sometimes it's super difficult living here. I just want to live with them.
I love my mum, but she expects so much of me and it frustrates me. Especially when she pulls the same stuff I do. Like she'll leave things out but then gets mad at me when I do. Gets mad when I don't clean things, but she doesn't clean things.
Like, I don't really care if the house looks like a mess. My friends always tell me how clean my house is, and like obviously I notice the crumbs and such, but mum gets ridiculously embarrassed that the house is messy. She'll be like "I'm so sorry about the mess!" and it's like yeah it's not spotless, but people live here.
Yeah I suppose so. I have a BUNCH of extension on my desktop Firefox, but I don't need much on my mobile version tbh. Especially since I have a few extensions that work for websites that already have apps (like I have sponsorblock and pockettube for YouTube but there's no point in installing them on my mobile FF since I have the YouTube app so...).
As much as I hate America, I sure as hell do know a lot about American politics and the whole "culture war" shit. But like yeah, right-wing nut jobs essentially boycotted Bud Lite and the reason was... get this, that they sponsored a video of Dylan Mulvaney, a trans woman who has been documenting her transition on TikTok everyday. But the maddening thing about it is, is that the Bud Lite with Dylan on it was only for her, it wasn't for anyone else. So all these dickheads buying Bud Lite to shoot at it, or going into stores that sell Bud Lite and trashing the place.
And the sad thing about it... Bud Light never reached out to Mulvaney about this situation to ask if she was okay. This probably is stated in the link you posted, but I guess this is a shorter version. I just have loads of thoughts on this.
Favourite game is Mass Effect 1, but I don't think I have a pet peeve because a lot of them have been said before (love the Mako though, it's just that the planets BioWare built are all fucking hills!)
But I think my pet peeve for Mass Effects 2 are 2 things.
The fact that there aren't scars in 2. Unless you use mods, but I like having my Shep's look battle-worn.
That BioWare made Shepard work with Cerberus. Like I get it in the idea of "the Alliance isn't saving people, but Cerberus did". But it feels so wrong especially if you played Mass Effects 1 where you can see the experiments Cerberus did on civilians. That and if you have the Sole Survivor background, it's a real slap in the face.
I know that they did 2 for storyline purposes, but the fact that you can't push back or anything makes 0 sense. And they also did it for people who never played 1. I just, ugh. It angers me. I love that 2 gave me my Garrus romance, but man, I just... yeah.
Yeah I've started to knit during battles because of how long it takes sometimes. Especially since my main character is a Barbarian, so she just smashes 2 times and then her turn is done.
Similar when I played her in my actual dnd campaign a few years ago.
There's the obvious "if you're a homophobe, transphobe, racist, abelist" etc etc etc. Like obviously that makes me lose respect for people.
But I think if you judge someone for doing something that you deem "weird". I used to so that until I learned that like, hey we're all fucking weird. Who cares.
I love MBMBaM but sometimes their episodes are such a hit or miss. I think it's mostly the bits. I don't mind the vampire one, but the perfume guy was too much.
I stayed up until 4am because I just couldn't get to sleep.
Going to have to have coffee from home and then a red bull at work to keep the 💤's at bay.
