I think I'm using this right...? 😸

Frussy. Gotta bus over to an appointment to get my head checked @.@ Maybe that critter can help me get on a cash assistance program. She tried to, but they just (eventually) sent me three copies of a rejection thing, dated a week previous to when I got them. This crap is all very mysterious and cryptic and quiet. It's just, struggle up the ability to send in an app in the first place, then hurry up and wait for a week or a month and maybe finally get something in the mail from like a week previous saying I've got two days (from a week previous) to settle some crap, or whatever. Or it just says nothing and I'm loster than before. Ugh. I'd like to be able to buy soap and maybe even pay bills, which this thing should let me do but it takes ages for anyone to even tell me anything and then I get that sorted and it's just.............................. .....................

>:(

Anyway, if I survive not paying my bills maybe I can get some head-meds to make life livable. I hate being stuck in this horrible hunam hellhole world v.v wobbles frussily

Other than that I guess I'm fine 🤷 Anxing over going out makes everything 😬 COVID stuff clearing up, I think. COVID is lots of fun and I recommend it only to critters who enjoy maximum fun nodnod 🙃 Am playing Space Empires IV, an ancient space 4X game. Can't fit or run much on this laptop. wobble Uhhmmmm... stuff, Idunno. Head's all weird, honestly. I'm not sure it's accepted that I'm even here. Sometimes I wake up and think I'm not. Sometimes I feel like I need to process things that I just can't because I'm afraid I can't actually be here, can't trust anything or anyone. Like I start to think of this place as a kind of home and bam, something goes horribly wrong. ... I'm rambling and I don't even know why 😅 Uhhh anyway there are lots of games I suddenly miss now that I can't play them. That's tons of fun :| I brought some random little bits with me, for the projecty computery thingy I wanted to build 😅 Just found some knobs I was gonna use. Didn't bring the pots, just the knobs for them. Didn't bring my lil air filter. Oh, noisy bikes. There are tons of noisy bikes in this town @.@ They drive right by my window 😅

Okay I'll stop yapping now. ... I haven't been talking much so I guess I kinda just blurted out a ton of crap 😅 "Solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short" springs to mind, thinking of my life. Odd reference to make there but oh well 🤷 skitters away, hides under a something

All(ium) Cepas Are Bastards? 🤔 😅

It really isn't. It'd be a bit closer if Data just randomly insisted that "steal Geordi's visor and shoot Data in the knee" was a necessary response to the bio-neural gel packs having gone funky but hunams love being fooled but pretend to hate it so we've got to have this asinine argument every day with people who assume that everything they don't understand is either magic or fake magic.

Also, there's a pretty big difference between beating Data with hammers while he's standing in front of you acting like a person, and beating Sales(TM) with hammers because you know damn well it's a janky piece of fad tech that can't possibly understand how it's about to make your life harder and is clearly marked as corporate property. I kinda can't believe I'm actually having to say this, but maybe we should consider giving a least-cost product (or service, I forget everything's a "service" now) that's clearly marked as corporate property a bit of extra scrutiny? People's minds are such mush. Ugh.

I'm taking this as an opportunity to illuminate issues with particular games, since... well, play on easy if you wanna, naturally. So, for my recommendation: If you don't use the mod that makes all weapons very dangerous, Mass Effect Andromeda. Without a mod to speed it up a lot, every fight becomes ages of tedium. There's one weapon that can be made any good and even that doesn't make fights bearable. You're basically sitting for like ten minutes at a time hosing down foes with off-brand Super Soakers until they get frustrated and leave. It's quite bad. Just play it on easy. Not just easy, the easiest easy. Whatever the lowest difficulty is, pick that one. There's just no point in anything higher unless you've got infinite patience. And ammo. Bleeegh.

So, generally I play things on easier difficulties when I feel like anything higher will get tedious rather than interesting. The Mass Effect trilogy, I play on the maximum difficulty because that adds a bunch of mechanics that give me more to work around. Fighting armoured enemies should be done differently from fights against shielded enemies, that sort of thing. Enemies become more dangerous when they're not shut down so there's that encouragement to get them figured out before they bring out the scary attacks. Some games just increase health amounts, which... okay, just shoot them more? 😴 Boring.

tl;dr: Games like Mass Effect Andromeda where difficulty settings only increase tedium. Am never gonna want to crank up the tedium setting.

🙀 Onions aren't food!

... Canines also not food, dunno what's supposed to be funny there <.<

Anyway only the New York one looks at all edible to me 😅

Idunno, my mom told me not to talk to _stranger_s 🤔

... She said a lot of things that were BS, though, so maybe you're cool I guess? 🤷

Oooh, I placed the first clue for Round 1 immediately but the rest threw me off 😅 Never got into the season(s) relevant to Round 2 so 🤷 on that one too :-\

Oh, maybe I'll watch all' that here! Just kidding, we've only got access to like five streaming services and violently headdesks until streaming service shenans are forgotten Uhhh, what was I saying? Anyway we don't have access to that here :-\

Yay trivia funtimes, though :3

Kinda seems like more people could put reasons to follow their links instead of just links :-\ Or, perhaps worse, a link that looks like spam and a description that looks like spam. Seems a tad doofy 🤷

I'll never forget attending CS courses with a guy who got violently angry at having to write code. I assume he's either thrilled with Copilot or in prison for attacking somebody over its failure to reliably write all of his code for him.

Then we'll have to give them more pie, and they'll just eat the pie! Eventually they'll eat all of the pie and the poor rich folks won't have any pie :(

Yeah, I'm still salty about that vile skit.

not many people in the world who understand this code.

Kinda sounds like maybe he writes some freaky garbo C that nobody can figure out 😅
