Got surprised this Christmas by @kilbaro.bsky.social with a gift card to a local music store aaaaaa

I had tried to get into guitar before, struggled a bit and ultimately fell off because it had been stolen back when I lived in Auburn. Listening to a few things got me wanting to get back into it.

Oh my _god_ these are incredible, a close friend shared the recipe and I had to make them. Soy-braised short ribs, it really wanted English-cut short rib but I made do.

The most damaging aspect of social anxiety is paranoia and imagination. It takes almost nothing to implant some thought of belief into your mind and let grow into delusion. In other words, NO that person does NOT hate you. I don’t care how your brain has convinced you. Your brain is wrong.

For the last month I was convinced someone I knew hated me. But tonight I was able to play games with them online and they were thrilled to see me. And I realized how silly I had been. Social anxiety is so hard to defeat sometimes. And you’ll never get past it isolating yourself.

“try water fox or ice weasel” try chill penguin. install flame mammoth. you just download bubble crab. literally just use boomer kuwanger. sting chameleon has a search bar, use it to find toxic seahorse.
I asked what I should use instead of firefox and someone said “floorp” and I legitimately thought it was a bit for like five minutes. tech has gone beyond making the torment nexus real to making poob real.

Good morning

Konami's beatmania turns 28 years old today - a game very instrumental in concepting rhythm games as we would know them for years to come!

In 2022, I put together my personal thoughts on why the earliest versions of this series resonate so well with me:

GemuBaka readers and viewers will have likely seen the occasional piece on music and rhythm games, but these have largely fixated on more recent arcade releases. Those with a keen eye on my Round O…

Tired, exhausted. Many things are wearing on me, and this work trip is one of them.

I spent four hours on the phone talking with my husband, finding out they're hurting while I'm healing, and it hurts to hear that. This is the one person I want to be with most right now.
