I'm Melancholiholic, or Mel for short! Stories & storytelling are my passion. I enjoy writing, reading, writing about reading, and there are rumors of me being an artist too.
Visual novels are my muse.
Learning JP & annoying about it (it's too much of my life not to be).

Having very curly hair is crazy because it'll be so hard to do anything with it and it does what it wants and looks like shit a lot of the time but you still get complimented on it frequently because people think they want it for some reason

1. For weeks, EITM has reported that Republicans would push a trans healthcare ban in their ACA negotiations.
Now, the plan is released, and it includes heavy restrictions on ACA plans, a medicaid ban, an EHB ban, and more.
Democrats must not capitulate.

Democrats Must Reject The Premise Of Trans Healthcare Bans In Republican Healthcare Offer
Republicans new healthcare bill would bar transgender healthcare as an essential health benefit, bar trans medicaid coverage, and would bar HSAs from considering trans healthcare medically necessary.

Higurashi shows the beauty that happens when a group of people with something genuinely wrong with them comes together and finds mutual understanding and love in their friendships and situationships with each other

The metanarrative aspect of the JRPG system in Yakuza is so good. How it turns it into a worldview made manifest. A JRPG hero is someone doesn't shoulder everything alone, who relies on and finds strength from others even though they could get hurt because that's trust

The best way I would describe the philosophy of When They Cry is "radical kindness". It's uncompromising on this view to an extent that many can't stomach, but its sincerity certainly reached me and has affected who I am to this day.

God just… a person coming into his life whom he is undeniably drawn towards, whom he gradually sees himself and his pain within, who belongs to a group that he’s told himself over and over to categorically hate… and he can never touch him. it’s a queer narrative that stabs the heart.

I need to figure out a way to be even more serious about learning Japanese during this next year. I'm thinking about it and might limit my bsky time for this purpose soon

Listening *section was the hardest because
1. They played it from a crusty ass radio and the sound quality sucked
2. If I spaced out for half a second I could miss the answer & they don't replay or give you much time to read the answers
3. It was very robotic speech and I'm used to natural speaking

Honestly pretty tricky at points. Glad I went for this instead of N2 for now. The listening session was probably the hardest despite being one of my strong suits. I'm pretty sure I passed but this game takes a couple months to load your score so we'll see!
