Hello everyone! It's that time again! As always, hope you're well! If you've got something cool going on, this is the place to talk about it! If maybe things ain't so hot, this is also the threat where you can have an ear to listen to you.
Remember: you are loved :soviet-heart:
Not a ton going on here - some good shows this past weekend, and doing a special drumless drone/noise set next week at a local DIY spot. Partner has been dealing with brain med switch and self esteem issues, so when I'm with them, I just try to keep things light and low key. Been adapting video game plots to bedtime stories with our pups as the main charachters for them. Got through LoZ: Ocarina of Time last night, trying to rack my brain for what other video game plots might work for this.
Hope you all are well!
mostly been spending my nights watching gdq with my lovely girlfriend, which is very cozy and nice
other than that, got my meds adjusted, so that's good
Hell yeah! Good luck with the meds, hope they treat you right!
Not great. People don't consider the simple things that are really hard for immunocompromised people right now. My wife's tooth cracked and dentists are doing zero to be safe from covid. She's gotta get it fixed, but then we have to find a way to keep her distance from me long enough that we know she won't spread it to me. And then like most dental work, there's gonna be a followup with the same issues. Hard dealing with this. Things were better setup for this to be safe in 2020 and 2021.
I'm sorry, sending best wishes to you and yours! Hopefully you're able to figure that out soon :avoheart:
Yeah, ultimately we landed on her isolating in her parents' basement, because where we live there isn't really enough room to properly set up any sort of ventilation and isolate. I've been alone a lot this past year for stuff like this and it's getting to me.
:meow-hug:
I hope y'all are doing okay overall. It's been rough on us, but we're getting through it. Just gets harder the more it seems like this might be the rest of my life.
Never done freelance work myself before, but I know there are plenty here who have/do. Hopefully someone will chime in with good advice! Sending my best!
I always tried to work with friends first. When I had to reach out to strangers to join me, I straight up just got lucky with finding another leftist on social media who is great to work with.
Excited to be alive right now. Blessings on blessings on blessings.
It's going well, for the first time in a very long time I'm meeting new people and it feels like I'm actually making meaningful friendships with some of them. Very exciting stuff.
2 years ago I had a roommate who asked for a bedtime story and I wove in a cosmic mythology about goats, as we'd been playing Goat Simulator at a friend's house.
The way she cracked up, when I finally spelled out the GOAT acronym I'd been building up to, was priceless.
Whimsical fun that I'll probably get for myself and fully explore sometime
I'm just waiting for the spring. All the fish I want to collect are hiding from the cold and I'm go stir-crazy. I desperately need a winter time hobby to hold me over until spawning season starts. I'm thinking I might learn to produce music.
Anyone have some good FL Studio tutorials they'd recommend? Preferably of the "for dummies" variety since I know nothing about making music.
Dunno nothing about FL Studio, but if you want help with Reaper, I can definitely assist!
Kinda meh, I'm cutting off weed since it started giving me these weird anxiety attacks after smoking almost every day for a year or two. Still have them a few weeks after quitting but it's getting better slowly.
Weed is weird man don't overdo it.
work is fucking killing me. i'm overworked, underpaid, spending all hours at crime scenes and dealing with pigs, or listening to the mayor how we just need to hire a few more pigs to fix the homeless problem. i've seen 5 dead bodies in the last year, and i've spent more time on crime scenes than with my baby in her first year of life.
i might be able to technically quit and not be homeless as my wife has a good job, but we'd lose my health insurance, and with a baby that's no good. i'm trying to transfer over to teaching but that's slow going so i'm just fucking trapped by police tape for the foreseeable future.
Holy shit, sending best wishes to you comrade. Hope things get better soon :meow-hug:
Just got blood test results back from my hospital. Everything's in a normal range - even my vitamin D levels, which are usually low (:im-vegan:). With the health issues/health scares I've been having recently, it's nice to know at least one part of my body is behaving.
Also laying down plans for my next video game project. I have a design document open for suggestions here and plan to start programming this Saturday.
Really glad everything is okay! I was just looking for your account to check if there was an update. Do they have any idea what caused it? Food/medicine or something?
Not a damn clue. The first time it happened, it was almost completely gray. Then over the last few days, it gradually got darker. Last time I went, the color was almost back to normal.
