Started snowing like crazy as soon as they put my mom in the furnace

Pulled out the CD drive for this and... well then. Guess I'm making a Micro Center run soon.

Also, love the misspelling of the product name lol

I got a lot of that too. It was very draining

I'm trying my best to not become a worse person from losing my mom but... I don't know. I'm just more lost than I already was.

In my quest to learn more about this thing (and use its software to adjust the image) I got a new in box one off eBay

I hate cancer, I hate the pile of shit that is US health insurance, but most of all I hate the fact that I can't do anything about this.

Gave a man on the street money just for him to immediately tell me he was using it on coke 🫠

This is going to be a tough year

The hate in my heart for insurance companies goes up with each passing year

Your parents are stressing over the ramifications of the 2008 recession while you are playing Mario Party 8 core

Getting a haircut then I'll be omw

I wasn't even binge drinking or anything like that. I used two free drink tickets at my band's November show and simply thought "what purpose is this actually serving?"

Happy New Year 🎊

I didn't have a drop of alcohol in December and think I prefer life this way lol. Still haven't decided if I'm going to be 100% sober in 2026 or if I'll have the rare single beer, but either way it was a much easier change than I thought it was going to be

I got a second 3D printer, whoops

I don't think I'l have all my armor printed out before Magfest regardless, but I'm super excited to make big things that aren't split into a million parts

I really haven't been playing many video games recently, outside of chipping away at Balatro gold stickers. I should change that

My attempt at gogo on the Sega Genesis sound chips. I would've recorded it on the actual console but my power supply is adding noise to the audio

I'm mostly attracted to JDM but the occasional muscle car catches my eye

Thanks to this find I now have a way to route all of my most-used sources to my CRT, my modern TV, or both at the same time

As soon as I turned on the heat in my apartment for the first time I booted up VA-11 HALL-A

The game has a special place in my heart. A replay helped me get through some real shit

45-55 degrees outside with a hoodie on and the heat blasting is the peak drop top experience

Sadako crawling out of your tv, turning motion smoothing off, then crawling back in

I picked up some tiny mics that can handle some extreme volume recently, so I tried stuffing one in a 3D printed practice mute. Turned out better than I expected, and it's worlds better than those Yamaha silent mutes

Nicotine withdrawal isn't as bad as caffeine but it still fucking sucks

Played in two different gigs today, that's defintely a first lol

Trying to free myself from the massive sunk cost of euphonium

I paid like $5 for it and the only info I've found on it so far is a blog post from 1999 about its successor (www.ladydragon.com/a-tvator.html). It worked instantly with my modern GPU and Linux (Wayland) with a DisplayPort to VGA cable. Lag is imperceptible at a first glance. More pics to follow!

Today's thrift store find was a 30 year old VGA to composite/S-Video converter. This monstrosity was the first thing I needed to try.

Most of the Ghibli films that are more ordinary in nature are really good, and I wish people talked about them more

I might need to hit upper body days harder for this Guts cosplay...

(Trombone for scale)

Soldiers at the Bass Pro Shops pyramid in Memphis, TN.

> It is 2025 BC. I am a soldier from one of the outlying provinces called to defend the pyramid in Memphis

My unc canon event was asking what the fuck AO3 was and not knowing people moved on from fanfiction.net
