This is such a big mood and I hoped that it would be better than Twitter here in that regard, and maybe it has been a little bit but I'm also following a lot less people now so it's hard to tell

If you have never seen the Tokyopop version of Initial D, I don't think anything can prepare you for how fucking awful the music replacement was.
There really is no rhyme or reason, occasionally it will be a song that I have not thought about in years. But there it is, already stuck in my head as I wake up. And it's been that way since I was a kid.
Many of my dreams will feature at least one song, maybe more but there's usually one memorable one that still stays in my brain after I wake up. I don't know if dreams having soundtracks is normal or not
Anyway today's was Evanescence's Bring Me to Life, which is truly a random pick by my brain lol
As someone who went on the Internet for the first time in the early 90’s, I fucking loved the Internet. It has given so many things in life, and afforded me so many incredible experiences.
And to see it, and technology in general where they are today is kinda soul crushing.
Gotta manually clave things like a peasant
One time way back in the day I saw an autoclave at a thrift store for like $100 and Tabi was like "you don't need an autoclave what in the world would you even do with that, you don't need more crap" and every once in a while I think about it and I'm like man but I could have had an autoclave
Oooooh an autoclave
My other options are front loading washer or submarine
I actually don't know what this is, it may not be a dryer based on that illustration. I'm just so curious about a round door with a gasket
Is this for a dryer?
i bet this shit sounds magical if you're fucking stupid
Facebook email: check out this memory from 16 years ago!
Me: what I don't think I was even on Facebook 16 years ago
Me: oh... 2010... huh.
This often impacts me when I'm cleaning or going through mail and have a keep and a throw away pile.
I have to go through both piles at the end and make sure because sometimes I just randomly switch and oh no you randomly put important stuff in the trash pile or vice versa
Thanks ADHD brain
Today I was opening a package of vegetable mix slightly past the expiration date and decided to sniff it to see if it smelled ok, when I thought "what time is it?"
Unfortunately that caused my brain to glitch and I found myself smelling my watch while staring at the open bag in my other hand
Nothing livens up the nose like accidentally snorting finely ground red pepper. on the upside I think it maybe cleared my sinuses a little?
No no I remember Zenos, Cher Armable was a cool guy
Yet another constant background all day headache. It's definitely sinus related, I can tell that by the occasional sneeze and feeling at the back of my throat. I haven't been around anyone to get sick though, so maybe allergies? Idk
Yay
I did a little bit of cleaning over the weekend and was like "wait I think I can do this now, but also this is so overwhelming, but I gotta"
My electric bill is $150 more than this time last year and my usage has not gone up proportionally. The power company is trying to incentivize us using less power whenever they ask us to in exchange with the vague promise of credits
Thanks AI
To let you know how bad AI is on electricity. I live next to two data centers. My electric bill went up by 50%.
If you preach the "...or get left behind" narrative, pushing and forcing people into it, you need to pay my electricity bills.
I had a brief moment of residual draft fears left over from the bush era war when it was briefly rumored, and then I was like oh wait no I'm way too old now they don't want me out there lol
One of my more recent cosplay posts on Instagram has been reposted at least 20 times by private accounts with OF links in their bio, but not all at once just like one every few days/weeks
Huh
Me: okay it's going to be spring forward tonight so I got to get to sleep before 2 so that it impacts me a little bit less hopefully
Me, looking at the clock saying 1:52: ah crap
I've recommended this mat to several other people and they have all unanimously been like oh my god it's awful it's so painful how do you do this
And it's like yeah it doesn't feel good at first, but then it feels really good. so it's worth it.
Maybe that kinda stuff differs for people though
Uggggh I'm glad to get another hour of daylight in the evening, it's definitely been nice having it not getting dark at 5, but also I didn't want the spring forward part yet, it always takes me awhile to adjust to "losing" an hour
Snuck right up on me
Oh also Brain Lord
Almost everything I thought of was already on that list although there were a few more I could think of that were unique that I don't think have evet gotten ports, namely:
Lagoon
Paladin's Quest (aka Lennus and its JP only sequel, Lennus 2)
Arcana
There are going to be so many people, during this only-going-to-get-worse heat/cold, who are either choosing between a power bill and other necessity, or unable to pay at all.
Meanwhile, the power company, after raising their prices, wants us to use less power during peak time to earn credits back
