Microblog

Tumblr/Twitter/Bluesky/Threads/etc alternative for this blog. For longer posts, see my main blog.

Also: Posts may not be given content warnings!

I think it would be useful/interesting if people had a badge on their page that indicated if they were based on the northern hemisphere or the southern, to make it clear what seasons they are working in. Optional, of course, but I would be interested in a badge like that. I think it would also be useful to have badges that say what date format you are using (e.g. day/month/year vs month/day/year) hm... maybe I need to make that.

I am wondering if I should even have a rating on my blog tbh. I think a website rating would only be appropriate if your site is mostly NSFW content, otherwise I think maybe content warnings are enough, especially if you have a variaty of content with topics that range from 'general audiance' to 'mature'.

If someone has a site that is mostly pg, but has a couple blog posts that talk about themes that could be considered 'inappropriate' like drug use or sex, is the site rating 18+, mature? what if it is years old, and most recent content is like, gardening or something?

Admittedly, I do like the aesthetic of my site having a rating badge, though. Like, it makes it feel more 'official' in a way. I like my censorship panda :3

I was able to do a little bit of solo ttrpg (mostly by relying a lot on dice rolls and oracle tables) and it was an interesting exercise in creative improv and character building.
An aside: I am wondering if it would be good for me to join forums so I socialise more. I used to have a habit of joining communities and then forgetting about them then eventually leaving, but I think with how things are going for me this year, it would be benefitial to speak to more people and I already scroll through them already.
Melonland is an obvious choice, I prefer general forums from ones centring on specific topics because my interest change often and sometimes I would want to talk about general, boring things like the weather and stuff. 32 bit cafe seems interesting sometimes.

I am finding it hard to do any creative activity. I really wanted to try solo rpg and ironsworn but I just have this mental block stopping me from being imaginative at all. I don't know what people mean when they say creativity helps their depression because when I am depressed I cannot be creative at all.
I guess aside from that, I am going to try to do simple stretches in bed before going to sleep and after waking up in hopes I don't feel so stiff all the time. I might try waking up before sunrise to get morning light or something, but that may not be feesable for me.

I need to figure out how to plan meals. I need to eat more than just rice and soups... but it is hard for me to know what I would want to eat in the future if I am not currently hungry. I have recently become interested in nutrition and looking at what foods are good for what, what I should eat depending on the year or my health, what nutrients or vitamins are used for in the body, etc. however I am struggling to apply my knowledge to the food I eat/plan on eating.

Never mind the last post!! Figured it out!! I flipped the first page horizontally and vertically so it would work when both sides were printed at once.

I used the libraries printer to print the Juice Oracle pocket fold, but it didn't print right and now I cannot fold it into a leaflet :( the app the library uses to print things doesn't let me control how the document prints. I can still use it, I suppose, but I'll have to find a new way to fold it, or buy my own printer, but I only need it this one time so it would be a waste...

I'm wondering if I should convert my really old phone into an MP3 player. Its battery life is terrible, but I am not sure if it would be better than just reselling it. I spend all my time on my laptop anyway, but it might be a fun project.

I finally got a knack for the rice cooker!! also starting to understand solo rpg a little more.

Ohhhhh nooooo I am already having a terrible time this year, the sun setting earlier than expected today made me realise it is gonna get a LOT worse in the winter when everything is so dark and cold oh god. I don't even like the summer but I HATE the winter its gonna get so bad oh fuck. I'm going to try to wake up earlier to compensate but I do not think it will work much, it is so hard to fall asleep early and I already got into a consistant routine that does not fuck me up. It is gonna be rough.

I am not a camera person or a hobbist photographer, but I love looking at pictures of the Kodak ec35... it scratches an itch in my brain for what I like aesthetically in tech. I think I would like to hold it and fiddle with it. I am not immune to advertising lol

Microblog is here. Most likely for posts under 500 words. I signed up for status cafe, but I am wondering if I would need that now...? however, I see others with both microblogs and Status.Cafes so, idk I'll give it a go when I get a confirmation email.
Also, I have been having sleeping problems lately. I feel terrible.
