I designed and then scrapped a protag for a third stardew save file. I really liked the badass woman who is rude, blunt, and a definite s, but when I thought about who she'd romance, the answer was Haley.
But you can't tease and bully an npc into liking you in stardew, so I reluctantly let her go.

Lmao, my s.o. was curious and tinkering around on my genshin account (we tend to have different chars), and decided to put a dps columbina and a lv50 illuga on my zhongli/albedo lol team for even more lols.
Surprisingly decent, he said. The amount of geo constructs on the field is wild.

I am a little disturbed that of the "anime office ladies" I found on google, half of them looked like children and the other half looked like young teens.
Where have the OLs of 90s anime gone!?

Um. Just got Abigail's 8heart event on my second save file, and it's so overt compared to the others that it's awkward bc my lil farmer guy is uh. Very not into girls. And also probably 7-8 years older, which might not be much of a problem among adults, but Abigail feels like she's 18/19 so ...

Oh thank the heavens the monthly trials and tribulations are over. Gonna spend the rest of the week getting the house back in order (not a big deal bc the systems I set up last year actually worked even when I was incapacitated) and checking on my elderly aunt, then it's back to business.

So on my first save file of stardew valley i played more as myself and dated no one. On my second I decided to play as a young free-spirit who likes fishing and just go with the flow for relationships.

I can usually stand being somewhat cold indoors, but not when I'm anemic and having period cramps so painful I want to hurl.
I do not usually have painful monthlies, so I am extra grouchy.

I think Jodi, the military wife from stardew, is just gonna disappear one day. It feels like she loves her family, but she HATES being a wife/mother.
It bothers me that her husband loves daffodils, her "special earrings" are daffodil shapes, but she hates daffodils.
What is the story behind this?!

I restarted stardew bc i wanted to try the riverland map and went with a dog instead of the cat ... I thought it was bc I wasn't really a dog person, but apparently even dog people find the stardew dog annoying af. The dog's barking apparently induces anxiety responses in their rl dogs?

After studying the wound, there are definitely 2 milder scratches on the upper eyelid to go with the deeper gouge on the lower lid, and it does look like something tried to scratch my eye out (the tree assassins).
I'm undecided as to how to reply if asked about it.

Varka dual-wielding claymores like they're daggers is getting to me. I'm just having a hard time separating Gintoki from the older, lazy-but-badass, comedic-but-heroic character. (they're basically the same person with the same va(jp), except one loves booze and the other loves strawberry parfaits)

How was my day? Well I got ambushed by a tree, and it tried to put my good eye out, but now I just have a sick anime scar right under it.

... So i definitely did get over my hyperfixation of stardew, but then i started pms-ing and it's more of a ride then usual AND the temperature outside plummeted so... It doesn't look that different from when I was still hyperfixating since I feel kinda sick and don't wanna move lol.

Just unlocked trinkets in stardew. I initially wanted the ice orb thing to freeze enemies, but the drops are random and I got the frog egg first... and now I refuse to be separated from Croquette.

"Pull Varka? Meh, probably not... ..."
*sees the man dual-wields like a stormblade assassin, but with fking claymores*
"... ... well I could be convinced."
I guess Noelle isn't the only one who has to use a claymore because everything else is too light.

I have emerged from my hyperfixation. For some reason it always feels like rebirth. My head is clear, I can manage priorities again, and I'm not operating on 3-4hrs of sleep every night.
This time the hyperfixation wasn't too all-consuming at least. Just knowing it was happening helped.

Stardew valley is eating my life and it's been a week. Time to put the limiters on.
I think half a season is a little over 2hrs realtime ... so yeah, sure, I'll only play 14stardew days per real day.

Ugh, finally through the cheaper dried shiitake I bought. It was the same weight as the brand I usually get but 2/3s the price... but half the weight had to be stem (inedible) so it was not worth the "savings."

Welp, won the 50/50 for Ineffa and Columbina.
I saved FOREVER for 250 pulls... Now what do I do with the leftover 100? (j/k, there is always gonna be chars to pull)

It's my first full playthrough of Stardew Valley.
I'm playing as an aroace dude, so no intent to give a bouquet, but have somehow maxed (8 hearts) all of the guys' affections before the girls', which leads to all the dudes flirting at my guy aggressively.

I am not even a little worried about ai replacing my fics. What are they trying to perfect, my overuse of passive voice, frequent tense switches when I get too "in the zone," or my weird habit of using near rhyming words instead of the right ones bc it sounded right in my head?

I feel so bloody anxious for no reason. Surprisingly chill about it despite the unease, so i guess it's the adhd and not like *anxiety* anxiety.
I'll try avoiding digital entertainment and such dor the weekend and see if that helps...

Playing stardew valley after a stressful morning of inconveniences is ... a bit ironic, honestly. But I do prefer fake inconveniences to real ones.

The new co-op mode in zzz is HELLA fun. I love that everyone can be anyone they want. If everyone wants to play dps/the same char, they can. I don't usually run into that bc I love playing supports (aka chars with short/interruptable combat animations), but i like that you can.
