I’ve been saying I was going to play/watch Omori literally since it came out, but haven’t. It’s my most toxic trait as a content enjoyer; someone will say “Hey, you like (story), (game), and (movie)? Well then you’d definitely love (this piece of media)!” And I’m like “Yeah, I probably will.” Then I put it in my ‘watch later’ list and leave it for years.
          
          But now, a YouTuber I like and know won’t fumble it is playing Omori, and so I’m wondering if I should just watch it or if I should wait to buy it and play it myself.

Did not realize how big the Great Lakes were. I’m world building rn and wanted to put some massive lakes around the place because I’m obsessed with Lake Baikal, so I made one lake on the main continent where most of the stories take place just smaller than Lake Ontario (the smallest of the Great Lakes), which made the lake 6,000 square miles or 3,840,000 acres. I was like “no, that can’t be right. How big is Lake Superior?” And I looked it up and saw an image of it compared against the east coast. That lake is so fucking big it can almost swallow the entire east coast WHOLE. WTF???

It sucks that people are afraid to play Undertale for videos because of the hate they get, but I understand why the hate is there. It’s so frustrating to see people go through killing because they don’t understand what they’re doing, but that isn’t their fault! The tutorial in Undertale FUCKING SUCKS!
          
          In Deltarune, Ralsei teaches you what all the buttons do and guides you through a mock battle, then at the end says “You can kill people if you want, but if you hurt too many people, you might not get the ending you want.” Meanwhile, Toriel is like “Lol, use ACT button, now bye-bye, good luck, kid.”
          
          So then, you’ll see people playing Undertale like a normal RPG and missing out on like 90% of the characters because monsters run away from you if you kill other monsters, meanwhile the person playing is like “Well, I’m just playing my way”, which feels so frustrating because they haven’t been given a proper tutorial and don’t actually understand the consequences of their actions. It’s not “playing your way” it’s a messed up game design fucking you over. If Toriel told you what Ralsei did “Killing and fighting is an option you can choose, but sparing and befriend people will give you a more complete narrative experience” and THEN someone chooses to kill monsters, THEN they are playing their way.
          
          (Also, I understand from a character standpoint, Toriel would never encourage Frisk to kill even if it was to encourage them for make their own story, but how hard would it be to have Toriel there strongly discouraging fighting, then have another character swoop in to actually explain the fighting system? Like a special froggitt or something.)

Wait, what? I just saw a post that non-Americans don’t celebrate Halloween or Thanksgiving. Obviously not thanksgiving since that’s an American holiday, but… Halloween??? Is that real? I feel like someone just kicked my puppy.

I wanna watch a video essay about the crash in Mouthwashing from the perspective of someone who lives in that world.
          
          “Hello, everyone. Today, we’re going to be talking about a topic that has both fascinated and terrified me for years, an incident I call: The Disappearance of The Tulpar. Over ten years ago, a freighter ship working for a now defunct company called Pony Express was sent on a mission to deliver an entire shipment of cargo to a planet across galaxies. But, for reasons that aren’t entirely clear, the ship would never make it to its destination. It would disappear among the stars, along with all five crew members. In this video we’ll be looking into interviews with people close to the lost crew members, leaked reports from Pony Express, communications from The Tulpar to HQ and vice versa, and even the final audio recording from inside the ship’s cockpit. So if this is a topic that interests you, grab a snack, get comfortable, and enjoy this five hour long video.”

The Yule Cat is a myth about a cat the size of a house that kills people who either don’t have proper winter clothes or slacked off on their winter chores, such as making clothes for others. It makes me think… Is the Yule Cat an ancient myth to explain the concept of paradoxical undressing?
          
          Paradoxical undressing: When someone is freezing to death, yet takes off all their clothes, believing they’re too hot, and then they die.
          
          Why are all these people who are dreadfully unprepared for the winter found dead naked in the snow? Well, the Yule Cat got to them.
          
          That’s cool as hell if that’s what it is.

I just picked up a book from the library, it’s by a very famous author, and… it’s written like a fanfic. Also, because it’s a male author writing about a female character getting bullied by other female characters, it’s atrocious. Idk how many men understand what women-on-women bullying is like, but it’s never this avert. They always leave themselves with a bit of plausible deniability.
          
          I remember one girl who used to bully me at school would always gag violently and exaggeratively when I walked by. And since we sat next to each other, any time she’d catch a glimpse of me, she’d act like she was about to throw up just from the sight of me. And when I told the teacher, that girl was able to say “Oh no, I’ve just been feeling sick recently, that’s all.” And so she got away with it.
          
          Girls would take candid pictures of me and post them with mocking captions then delete them before there were any repercussions, things like that. It was never outright. (Hardly ever, there were some times when they just outright did fucked things to me.) But that kind of thing is hard to write if you’ve never experienced it.
          
          Still, there’s something so painfully ‘fanfic-y’ about this book. It’s the shit that usually turns me away from reading fanfics, yet this is a very famous book from a very famous author. That’s crazy.

You know, its really annoying how in my senior year of high school, both my parents decided to go back to school. My mom decided to go to school for nursing or something and my dad went back to school for forensic science. And now because of that, I can’t go to college because they don’t have the money. WTF?? Now I have no idea what to do because I can’t get a degree and most jobs don’t even consider you if you don’t have a degree, so I’m kind of screwed. I’m now thinking of going to college for hematology, but I can’t afford to.

Ok! I may have spent ALL my money buying gifts for people, but at least now I have a gift for everyone! (Then my birthday rolls around and everyone who is still connected to the family turn up) Oh… I forgot about my two aunts, my uncle, and my sort of cousin but not really… (Is she related to me? No, I don’t think so, but her mom has been a family friend for so long that her daughter is practically family. Wait, should I get my cousin’s mom something too? She isn’t family, but she might as well be my aunt also…)
          
          FUCK!

I just had a Gen Z moment. This story I’m writing is set in the 1980s, and I wrote that the character picked a disk from a case to play some music before realizing that might not be how old ass stereos work, so I went to Google it and was immediately overwhelmed by so many fucking terms and shit that my brain exploded.
          
          AND I STILL DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT STEREOS IN THE 80s, I JUST GAVE UP!
          
          Tech illiteracy at its finest.
