    Place your random thoughts.

    Just got the new YouTube home page layout and am pretty annoyed by it. Now all the thumbnails are enormous―literally bigger than my phone if I hold it up to the monitor―and despite how big my monitor is I can now only see six thumbnails in full when I used to be able to see a couple dozen. Does...

    What's Bothering You?

    Kinda frustrated that part of me still wants to play Splatoon 3 even though I am well aware that it frustrates me to no end. It can be a very fun game at times, but something about the matchmaking and ranking algorithms is completely borked, so it's super easy to get stuck in back-and-forth...

    What's Bothering You?

    I'm in a slump right now that's making it really hard to finish up a project I'm working on that's like 95% done. What's frustrating is that the slump largely feels spurred on by the state of the world and my place in it, and that's largely not something I have control over. It just feels like...

    What is your favourite flavour of milkshake?

    My favorite is mint chocolate chip, with the caveat that I've also had ones that weren't great because the mint was too overpowering. Typically, though, that would be my go-to at a place that has them; otherwise, I'll generally do vanilla or chocolate with little preference between them.

    What's Bothering You?

    I've been really fatigued this week, it's really frustrating. The ADHD medication has helped a little bit, in that I'm better able to work on my studies than I otherwise would've been, but I feel so brainfogged and tired that I'm still barely able to be productive. I'm also worried about my...

    What's Bothering You?

    It is immensely frustrating watching people who weren't there for something try to insinuate things about it, when it was something I was actually there for and know they are completely wrong. Especially when people believe them because they either have clout, or are saying what people want to...

    What's Bothering You?

    The way people act online, especially on social media, is so frustrating that it's impossible for me to not become a misanthrope. I very begrudgingly maintain a Twitter account, but it's really only because Japanese users love it for some reason, and I'd like to keep in touch with them. Sure...

    Edible Eggs🥚

    I haven't painted eggs for Easter since I was a child; generally I don't do a whole lot to celebrate Easter, actually. As far as eating eggs, they aren't a huge part of my diet, but I did actually include some egg in a stir fry I made for dinner today. There are also some dishes that feel...

    What's Bothering You?

    I always feel like a broken record when I bring it up elsewhere, but man do I miss the way the internet used to be, honestly. I'm glad forums like this still manage to exist, but I miss when active forums weren't such a rarity. Social media is an utter cesspit on top of being boring, thanks to...

    What's Bothering You?

    I'm glad that my Japanese mutual who had her kid recently seems to be stabilizing, but I'm sad that they have now moved onto the phase where they rarely pop up, and when they do, it's to talk about things like their baby's uhh... movements. I really hope they manage to hang onto their...

    How strong do you like your coffee?

    I've never been a huge coffee person, so I guess my answer is "not too strong". Most of the coffee drinks I have are closer to desserts, like frozen coffees with chocolate or vanilla to offset the bitterness of the coffee.

    Other than religion and politics, what do you think is the most controversial subject in general?

    I posted something else earlier, but another one is definitely AI and any applications of it. A lot of people are either firmly for or against it, leaving little room for nuance, which is a shame because personally I both understand and agree with a lot of criticisms of it, while also feeling...

    What Are You Happy About Today?

    It's a somewhat slight effect, but I can tell my ADHD medication is actually working, because I forgot to take it this morning and am noticing that compared to yesterday, I can't really seem to stay as focused today. Sounds like more of a gripe to say that I can't focus today, but I'm actually...

    How often do you eat out versus at home?

    My roommate and I eat out more often than we really should. At the very least, we tend to eat out on the weekends., but sometimes we get lazy and wind up eating out on weekdays as well. I do try to cook at home during the week, though. Way cheaper, and also easier to get reasonable portions by...
