Lmao, the Dialyn teaser is a little confusing for people who don't understand cn contractors and tofu dreg projects. Like, you get the jist, but it seems like the exact situation will be lost.

My S.O: Okay, explain Amphoreus to me. Me: *trying to parse which part of the story needs to be told first.*

What exactly is the mindset behind egregious excess? What is it about human nature that thinks, "More is better!" even though it really isn't and can even be dangerous? I found myself wanting things today, but I don't need anything. What the heck is this impulse when i have more than i need?

... I don't want to be impressed that hoyo ditched their saturated anime style for their horror game, but chaos zero nightmare proved that desaturated colors for horror vibes isn't as obvious as I think it should be.

My adhd isn't really that bad. I can usually take control, albeit with some compromises and after indulging it for a bit, but every once in a while... Good lord the past two days have been impossible.

I'm actually not that interested in ye shunguang's design/personality, but it's kind of hard to pass up what appears to be a violent pekingese with a sword.

Have been stuck writing for 2 days, just to realize that right now my goal is just to hit 5k words. I don't have to be in order this time ... Got 1k done in half an hour just writing the scenarios i felt like -_-;

My adhd is getting the better of me. I know i should do things, so I'm going to sit over here and hyperfixate on anything but those. _(:Ⅰ」∠)_

OverField is a mess. Sloppy globalization/translations, overwhelming amount of ui and menus w/out enough talking you through it, a confusing amount of stuuff to do, and clunky combat ... but heck if I ain't having a blast. It's also super damn cute.

Lmao talking about "winning" or "losing" in a ship because of canon... look, if we cared about canon support we wouldn't be shipping liushen now, would we? Some ships are fun bc of canon, and others bc one char takes the L so hard that it's too endearing and you want to give him a win.

I don't mind when ppl change things about a char in their fanart (unless it's a bad photoshop of the original art bc, cmon, put some effort into making me appreciate your vision), but when you change skin color, gender AND body type AND change their outfits, I can't be blamed for thinking, "Who?“

Omfg, it's Dottore, people! Zandik is Dottore's name!!!! Arrrrgh! (I still don't know where I got that info or how I retained it, but I flipped out and went, "Oh fk no pls tell me the cat didn't give Dottore superpowers," as soon as I saw the signature on the note.)

Today could be a bad day. There's a problem I can't even start to deal with until halfway thru the day. I could let it ruin my entire day. Or I can just accept that me and my adhd anxiety are just going to have a slow day. We can go on a date afterwards. Get an ice cream or pen I don't need.

Damn zzz really be a cyberpunk wuxia huh. Well I'm not complaining.

... I don't think i like Rerir. It bothered me that he never stopped to think for himself over anything, just lulling himself into delusions to pacify any uncomfortableness and following whatever "promises" him what he wants to hear.

Sure, i sometimes find ppl gleaning for ship crumbs to be annoying, but i wouldn't ever deny anyone that fun of looking for their ship in canon, even if i think it's weird to try to prove a ship from the coloration of the local flora and fauna.

I love that The Herta has fairytale wicked witch and evil queen motifs. It explains a lot about the direction they went with her.

It's interesting when people who are into "woke" culture start dissecting characters into which traits were made to appeal to which audience. Like, I thought only seeing the parts and neglecting the whole in a character was what you were against?

*Sketching and really hating the eyes as usual.* ... ... *colors in the whole eye and not just the pupil.* Are you freaking kidding me. This entire time, years of hating how i draw eyes, no matter how i change the shape/style, and it's just THAT?! ("that" being how I mark pupils in lineart)

I am jealous of people with cordless vacuums, but we have so many vacuums... Yeah they're vacuums foisted on us from the prev home owner and relatives, but they still work fine and I'm unwilling to figure out how to get rid of them properly if i got a new one.

You know how people from previous eras believed all sorts of weird supernatural stuff and we're all like, "Whew, glad we've advanced enough not to believe such hogwash"? I... am starting to consider that hogwash is just embedded in our dna.

I am both speechless and delighted at how subtle the humor is wherever it's snuck in in Resonance Solstice. "The more the user believes in its existence the stronger its effect (extending confusion)" lmao.

Omfg. Just realized i dodged a massive bullet with ATAPAS. Y-yeah... *this* SY and his original life has differences from any retroactively added detail of SVSSS SY's original life because there are multiple vers shenanigans going on ... I TOTALLY planned this. Honest.

Bringing politics into an argument where it wasn't touched on for the majority of the conversation just makes you sound crazy. The not-good kind of crazy.

Most successful thrift run in a while. Found 2 things I've been keeping an eye out for and 2 things i absolutely loved. Didn't go overboard, but found perfect versions of what i wanted

Ah ... nope. The Arknights Endfield PV did NOT interest me whatsoever. I'm a little disappointed. The color pallette and modeling fell flat, and the plot is some chuuni kinda plot, which isn't BAD, but I'm a bit burnt out of that stuff.

... ... ... Nope. Refusing to change sqh's "real name" to his actual real name in ongoing fics. But nice to know now.

... How do people not get that lucia's race is inspired by gypsies/nomadic races? There's a reason she looks like a modern druid and larper - her ppl are ostracized and discriminated against in the last bastions of civilization, so the prefer to avoid modernia.

I love the idea of Flins being creepy by forgetting some basic, necessary human functions. "Flins, you've pulled 5 all nighters in a row. Are you ok?“ "?... ... ! Oh yes. Humans need to sleep. I certainly am very tired." Very, "hello human friends, i am one of you," vibes.

Omg. A passenger got handsy with the MC in resonance solstice, and the childhood friend's first reaction was abject confusion and then trying to make sure the passenger wasn't upset and taking out her anger on the MC. It was such a normal, not-crazy jealous tsundere response that I was confused.

I am breaking my no phone in bed for resonance solstice. I have no idea how the gameplay loop is or the mechanics, but the dork of an mc and his ditzy assistant have me hyped af.

First five seconds of Resonance Solstice: Oh no. They're all dumb. I'm going to love this so much. It's stupid, silly, and I'm here for it.

I've been watching someone on youtube who views fashion as art share his passion, and although i care not at all for haute couture or the fashion scene, it's amazing what it's done to my brain. I went to draw a char outfit ... and i knew what elements even existed to be modified/incorporated.

I really want kafka to have picked up a fortune telling cat that only she understands. Magical Girl Kafka when?

I enjoy casually shipping characters for leisure and amusement, but every once in a while I'll be struck with the idea of a char being like, "btch, i got things to do and places to be, you think i have time for kissy face sht?" and the contrast it has with the char's ship depictions amuses me.

Me: "I got a book today that i am beyond excited to start reading." S.O: "... This is a handbook on english grammar." Strunk and White's "The Elements of Style" is basically a professor's attempt at making the tiniest explanation of english rhetoric possible. A great reference.

Am I disappointed with miliastra wonderland? No. "Disappointed" implies I had sone sort of expectations, and honestly, as soon as they announced it I thought thought it would be a terrible cash grab device. It also doesn't bother me bc the part of the game i actually care about is still f2p friendly

*wants hyacine and phainon* *sees 3.7 banners* Ugggh i have to finish Gears and Gold and Unknowable Domain I guess...

Lmao i watched the fallout day broadcast and just... ... the differences between the complaints that bethesda fans and hoyo fans have are hilarious. Hoyo fans: Some of the new content has to be PAID for?! Bethesda fans: We can't even pay for new content?!

As someone who plays mc, no accessories, or chooses the blandest outfits possible for my avatars to avoid breaking immersion, I don't care that the optional genshin mode charges for cosmetics. I do wish we had the option to opt out to save storage, but you can disable auto update for it at least.

I've given up on gacha game content creators. Except for the handful of ppl who still know how to have fun with what they do, everyone else feels like they're farming the algorithm or controversy fishing. I just want to watch ppl make videos about things that interest them, not buzzword slop.

Hsr 3.4/3.5 spoilers Playing the hsr story again (bc my S.O. doesn't deal with "esoteric" and i have to explain it to him anyway), and it's still awful when phainon fights aquila-hyacine. She's the only non-fighter he kills, and her screams(jp) of pain... It's really terrible.

My brain turned off and i pulled for Nefer before i tried her out despite being unsure if i actually wanted her. Guess it's too late now... First time I've ever done that. Of course it's when I'm dizzy with a head cold...

... Why was Nefer's trailer so ... Elation coded? What is with that mask? Why does this resemble Sparkle's trailer? *intense paranoia from a hoyo fan*

I finally remembered to color something before evaluating the design of an oc. It went from "Ugh, this looks like crap i hate my style" to "Yeah that looks right.“ Also i need a white gel pen. Water based white ink does nothing.

Omfg I'm finally done with the blinds... It took 5 days, 3-6 hours each day. And it hurts knowing that 10 minutes a week would have prevented this back breaking, time sapping chore. Wipe now or scrub later, as they say.

So I saw someone mention how manato is like a young single mom who does not understand she's desirable and everyone wants her. Now all I can think about is Manato helping the shopkeepers with heavy inventory, or stepping up for the miners in a dispute/fight, and everyone's staring like 👀

I finally bothered looking up what yumeshipping was because i felt like all shipping is "dream shipping" in that I am dreaming of these characters developing a romantic+ relationships. I don't feel like selfship is any more or less "dreaming" tbh.

So you know how glaciers are basically snow that's piled on top of each other until the bottom layer compacts into ice? I'm pretty sure that's what happened to the dust on my blinds. After I finish scraping them clean, I'm going to dust them weekly to avoid having to do this ever again.

For me, dead, blank eyes are a must for Flins. That's his creepy mysterious mojo - it doesn't matter how ppl want to characterize him inside, his face barely showing emotion and keeping you guessing is what makes flins flins. It feels ooc to see him with a wide grin or vivid emotions on his face.
