I even got the same chuunibyou to base my fake real last name on an astronomical phenomenon. What is my life?

Realized in the shower last night that a persona (and by extension myself) had its gender expression and general vibe give off a bit of 20-something Greg Universe.

what the fuck do you MEAN you can evolve eevee into jolteon in gen 1 by getting into a trainer battle, levelling eevee up, switching to growlithe, and finishing the battle with growlithe, because growlithe's pokemon index is the same as thunder stone's item index. WHAT. WHATTT

I can't test the CD player nor cassette player right now, but the radio works on both of them for sure, at least.

Extremely normal things to do in the bathroom.

After a hurricane, many people worry about losing power. For trans Floridians, it can mean losing access to lifesaving medication and navigating hostility at disaster shelters. But one woman’s hurricane response team is stepping in:

When a hurricane hits, she shows up for those left behind » Yale Climate Connections

Trans advocate Jasmine McKenzie is building a lifeline for Black and trans Floridians who often can’t safely access disaster services from FEMA or religious organizations.

Every once in a while, I see people wonder why, out of all of the available Pokémon to choose, Poliwhirl was so often shown front and center. Especially in the case of Pokémon's marketing in America.

Well, I'm going to do my best to answer that question now.

the worst trend in female character design for anthropomorphic characters in media has to be the absolute refusal to give women snouts.

gacha games and fortnite are especially egregious with this. come on. just a bit of a snout. it's not hard, people. give the wolf girl a snout. and DON'T squish it

Oh my goodness now I'm being haunted by another one of them. I had this Wild Republic blue and hot pink giraffe named Ursula, and I brought her with me so many places.

One of the few plushies I had a pic of me with from my iPod Touch era as a child (this photo was pulled from a random eBay listing)

A stuffed animal of a dark blue giraffe with light blue swirls in place of spots. It has white sock markings and snout with hot pink ears, mane, and hooves.

I'm not super keen on strict routines, but when the things I regularly do get disrupted, it takes so long to adjust, and I feel like I've been in a constant state of readjustment for an entire year on my family's whims.

If there's gonna be change, I'd prefer it on my own terms.

Mitzi @zablionsea.bsky.social · 4d

To be honest, the worst part about my upcoming move isn't the process itself but the whole year of uncertainty and constant flip-flopping of plans.

I thought we were moving last year, until my sibling wanted to stay, and then I thought we were staying, until they didn't want to anymore.

I keep having nightmares about moving, so I'm looking forward to getting that over with and my nightmares to go back to being about, idk, being dysphoric or socially anxious again. At least I'm used to those ones.

Mitzi @zablionsea.bsky.social · 4d

Not going to this upcoming Super MAGFest since it's too much of a pain for not enough to make it worthwhile.

However, I definitely will be attending Megaplex 2026, assuming my life isn't falling apart or something by then.
