    Growing pen obsession.

    Ooh, pens. Look at this: This is just some of it. Certain things are easy to deal with, others are not. That blue one in front, that one needs to be completely disassembled in order to refill it with ink, typically makes a hideous mess. Lovely pen though. The weird looking metal one next...

    Nvidia 50 Series

    I think it's kinda part of the whole "gaming arms race" thing. Everyone wants to have the big specs to wave at everyone else. But it's no longer enough to just type it out. You gotta SHOW how epic your setup is or some nonsense. So get those parts lit up! After all, if you cant constantly...

    Not to mention toxicity. I like the *idea* of competitive gaming, but there's only so many angry shrieking jerks I can deal with before my patience runs out.

    Nvidia 50 Series

    I'm just baffled that this idea even exists. Even the big games, recent ones, will run on a freaking potato now. Or the consoles, which dont exactly cost 5 billionty dollars. If it can run on the freaking Series S, you absolutely do not need a mega-rig PC to play it. That seems pretty...

    Nvidia 50 Series

    Not to mention that in a lot of cases, a better GPU wont stop that from happening with the most modern games, as often those games just arent made very well. Buggy and rushed and all. If they're gonna get wonky, they'll get wonky on anything. Bragging rights. Been like that for ages with...

    Nvidia 50 Series

    The big question for me is: What is this even necessary for? You DEFINITELY dont need these for modern gaming, no matter what game it is. A 4090 is already seriously pushing it. Heck, my RTX 3090 is way beyond what's necessary for games, and I only have that because of the rendering I do. I...

    Unique Interests

    Creepy dolls. No, I dont know why. My less bizarre interests are things like gaming and such.

    Streaming services

    I'm just glad Youtube is a thing. Well, Youtube when used with adblockers anyway.

    Thinking I might try my hand at writing a bit after all. Today marks the 3rd time I've been approached by a game review outlet to write for them, and almost my entire friends list on Steam is people who sought me out after reading some review or whatever I wrote (I dont talk about it much, but...

    Addicted to buying video games on digital sales.

    As much as I love retro games, I gotta say, this is the bit I actually DONT miss. I always see people waxing lyrical over that, usually through rose-tinted glasses, but all I think of is the zillions of problems that came with cartridges and discs. I tell ya, it absolutely sucked to have some...

    Addicted to buying video games on digital sales.

    Dont feel TOO bad. To some degree, this is a marketing trick, and a very effective one. It's not even about dopamine by its design, it's about FOMO. Which is worse in a lot of cases (particularly since it can then lead to even more dopamine). Here's this massive sale, the infamous STEAM...

    Tips and insight for a laptop we are going to buy my daughter

    Yeah this bit always baffles me. What makes it even stranger is that half the time, people who buy/build these huge mega-rig PCs wont *actually* use like 95% of the potential the things offer. But they want to HAVE them. I see it a lot in the gaming community specifically but something tells...

    Community

    This is typically how I see it. After the experience that was school, well... All I learned is to avoid everyone, because to do otherwise always proved to be a grave mistake. Of course I became permanently reclusive after that. Also a couple of years spent working retail just reinforced all...

    Time for some dietary changes.

    Just be sure to take it slow. It'll hurt a heck of a lot more if you try to do it too quickly.

    Time for some dietary changes.

    To be fair, though, caffeine is an addictive substance. It can get a grip on anyone, and frequently does. Thus, the extreme popularity of Starbucks. I've been through the "need to cut back" thing myself. It wasnt coffee for me, it was Mountain Dew, but still. Was having too much in a day...

    So, I came out to my closest friend today (via texting, I dont think I could have done it in person without passing out). Went well. Had a colossal panic attack immediately after. But for once I managed to get through that without clawing my arm apart again. That's progress, I think. Probably.
