I beat Portal on my Switch and I think it's exactly what I needed to remind me why I love video games

also it's almost 20 years old jesus christ

"slop" as a descriptor has gotten way too out of hand. I don't even mean for AI shit, people are way too comfortable describing the most mundane shit as fucking *slop*, it's like a thought terminating cliche

the only thing I have to say about the Epstein files is

what the fuck did you people expect

did you think trump would be like well ya got me here you go, here's All Of My Crimes

been almost a year since this time in my life and I can firmly say: who the fuck is this. I think I was maybe just Posting Through It because I was having a very difficult time then and things haven't gotten better

day 352/366

neurodivergence is fun because you kinda have to realize in hindsight "oh wow yeah yesterday was an ADHD day whoops"

I'm feeling very inspired today but also very wary of my spoons, might look more into Tai chi and dig into some spirituality research for myself

alright I've had a million false starts with books this year but I'm gonna finish this one, this one is important

I am trying to play older games for inspiration but unfortunately I have ipad baby brain and 98% of games made before 1990 feel like video game homework
December 10, 2025 at 8:28 AM
I have assembled my game backlog for 2026 and I will be starting my manifesting and affirmations now because I have beaten one (1) game in 2025 and the total time to beat it was one (1) hour

been feeling very lost in terms of community. feels like every platform is either Yell Into the Void or Small Private Secret Room of 10-50 People. it's hard to know where to go to like... talk to people and share things
November 23, 2025 at 2:51 AM
hello I hope anyone still following this account is doing well

trying to post anything meaningful and that doesn't appeal to lib brain rot has felt very futile but I'm grateful for the people I met here

I have a long flight tomorrow, please throw movies/books/games/music at me

I'll check metacritic from time to time but at this point it just feels like we're being fed an endless parade of slop. I've lost so much interest in knowing about basically any movies or shows coming out

this ex also repeatedly argued that Elden Ring is, categorically, a 3d platformer
one time an ex tried to argue that Satisfactory would never reach version 1.0 because of some meta joke about capitalism and production. when I told him that made no sense from a game dev production standpoint he did not care. this was the rigor that he approached most topics with

finally visiting home after about 4 months away and I'm... having a lot of conflicting emotions. everything is fine but almost immediately after getting to the house I was just overwhelmed with the feeling that I don't really think I want to come back here again

if I don't win the lottery tonight it's a government conspiracy against me. if I do win the lottery then god has ordained me to defeat capitalism from within. these are the two outcomes

also thinking about how I feel like I kinda have autism imposter syndrome where I doubt if I'm autistic or don't feel like I'm "autistic enough" for people to care but then I imagined the look my therapist would give me if I told her that and I have been cured of my imposter syndrome

kpop doesn't really capture my interest enough for me to be super into it, which is a shame because sometimes you get shit like this with an absolutely banger sample
September 4, 2025 at 4:19 PM
Powerball is currently $1.7 billion. I hate capitalism and the lottery is a scam on entire classes of people but god damn it would it be nice to win

I'm still proud of voidfolly.io/stories but I have even more than that, with their own photos too. man I really need to do more with my personal site, I just don't know what
I have literally hundreds of playlists I wish I could share but trying to force music on people feels like one of the most cringe things in existence
