Today I found out that they're still releasing chapters of "Rent-a-Girlfriend"

While I *am* still reading it, I realized quickly that it would be 40 chapters to slog through in the span of what should be like 5 chapters max bc the author is like "ah yes, what is going inside this boy's head? More of the same? Better keep writing it"

Like any given page is just "oooh what does mizuhara think of me? What will she think of me? Maybe I should do this instead? I can't decide, guess I'll do nothing", and while it is a valid train of thought for people who are nervous or anxious about meeting up with the girl they like, maybe it's a bit much to show it every time.

Rant over, still gonna read it

US gender reveal/gamba culture

Why isn't gambling on people's births more popular than gender reveal parties in the US

Seems like the gender reveal people would love it more cos it's like "gender reveal BUT GAMBLING" and then they put that up on like DraftKings or somethin

Y'know the saying, "measure twice, cut once"?

Programming feels like "measure 20 times, execute once, realize that there's still something wrong, measure 30 more times, execute again. There's still something off. Okay. Tackle each debug until it works, then realize there's something inherently wrong, scrap the whole thing, restart from scratch, then realize you made an oopsie at the very beginning for your other code but IT'S TOO LATE NOW, so you continue to push your boulder up the never ending mountain until it works perfectly in a few days"

At least, that's how it goes for me. Idk I think I'm just getting skill gapped

It's almost been a year ;-;

I have been busy! I graduated from my master's degree, found a job, I got another partner, we all lived together for a month, I started fixing up my car, I quit League for probably 3+ months... Life is good. I'm just happy that I'm able to put my degree to work.

It's been a hectic year, but it's been net positive for the most part. Hopefully I can make 2025 go even better!

Maybe I can finally put a couple of those projects I started up in the "Finished" pile. Get some volunteer hours under my belt. That type of thing.

I very much appreciate the people that translate manhwa and manga, but

I'm not tryna read commentary from the translator in the actual manhwa itself, y'know? Like I'd go to your socials if I cared about your opinions

just tryna read my smut in peace ;-;

Sorry my resume has like the stuff I used to do before and it's not related to the field, my bad

I was looking at someone's MacBook and it looked like the apple was lesbian colored

We went on break, and I looked at it again, and apparently it was just reflecting the tables and chairs in front of her

My disappointment is boundless

Y'know what, I usually never know what I want for my New Year's Resolution™, but I think I know this year!

1) be able to do both the side and front splits by June, but in general, improve my flexibility and strength by body weights
2) improve my consistency of sleep by setting a hard limit to when I stop gaming
3) improve the consistency of my femme voice to around like 50% uptime by March (I'm probably at like 15% rn)

I think it might help that I have these goals concrete, so here we are. Anyway, Happy New Year, y'all! Be gay, do crimes, etc

I'm about to finish my master's degree in March, which is both exciting and terrifying at the same time. On one hand HOLY HECK I'm really enjoying all the classes I've taken, and I like the path I'm walking down. On the other, I gotta find something to do after I graduate, and while I'm sure I could handle anything someone throws at me, I need people willing to hire me ;-; It's honestly scary to put myself out there again!

I'm graduating in Data Science with a Marketing focus, and I've really enjoyed learning about marketing strategy and the analytics + analytic systems behind improving marketing, so if you know anyone that can help out with finding me a job, I would greatly appreciate you as a person <3

I don't plug for myself often, so it feels weird to do ;-;

What if content just had tags on em, like Tumblr did, but then readers could have CW filters for specific content tags to be blurred from the TL

God I'm on a roll, why are my best thoughts when I'm barely lucid

Y'all ever go back to playing a game, look at your friends list, then realize that you haven't talked to someone in like 10 years, you look for them on your contacts list, and find that they seem like they don't exist anymore, and you're like "dang I kinda miss hanging out with them" but it's been so long that they could've gotten married, moved to like different places, and you just have 0 clue where they are anymore?

This is what I get for going back onto Guild Wars 2

This is *not* a hyperfixation so I can look cool (read: not stupid) at a wedding; however, it's not outside of the realm of possibilities that I should be ready by the time the wedding rolls around.

My next hyperfixations: learning to dance

I got salsa, bachata, samba, breaking, and capoeira on my to-do-but-never-finish list, on top of some cool random stuff from tiktok clips

I feel like all the body weight exercises and stretches are fine, but dancing will probably contextualize it in a fun way that I've always kinda wanted to do

not to say i'd rather them make a dogshit course that gets outperformed by the pre-rolled course, but like just be honest what's going into the course and if i happen to buy the course pack and do all the shit in it, maybe you could just give me the credit instead of charging me for pretending to teach me

I love when classes cost money, and then the professors in the class are like "oh yeah, btw buy these ebooks and course packs because they do our job for us" and then it's like "why am i paying for a fully online class where the syllabus is literally someone else's course" like what happened to integrity

Anyone else hyperfixating on cars and/or self hosted servers?

I'm trying to find a responsive manual transmission AWD (negotiable-ish but I live in winter snow lands) sedan/coupe for a daily driver that would be fun to drive

I'm also diving into my server stuff heheh, i can currently only ssh in, but I'm looking into buying a domain and starting up making the docker containers for my webpage
