bev! @TonicBH@computerfairi.es

@mavica could be doing a bit better, but I feel better than I did a few hours ago

@mavica morning mavi, hope you're doing alright today

guess it's time to finally get out of bed

morning, y'all

Reading two ongoing comics that are talking about a character's exploration into finding out they're trans is oddly relatable in a way I can't really explain.

You know, I remember seeing some kind of spreadsheet someone made covering all the things in the itch.io bundle with small bite-sized reviews but I can't remember where it is.

That would be nice have right now, just to see if some of these lesser-known games are worth downloading

Oh man I just found out Alex Zandra's novels were in that racial justice/equality bundle.

Downloading those *immediately*.

dang, I didn't do a whole lot today and ended up taking a nap afterwards.

I feel guilty for doing that

Watching Giant Bomb's Alex Navarro play American Truck Simulator gives a sense of calm that I'm totally here for right now

@RustyRetro@snouts.online been doing alright, slowly trying out some things, seeing if they work out.

Not much else, really

@RustyRetro@snouts.online rustyyy your newest commission is so cute 💜

morning, folks

Finally got adhesive nosepads for my glasses

it feels great to have my glasses stay in place and not like, slide down my nose

Watched Cannonball with some friends.

Ever wanted a game show that involved a long water slide and didn't really do much with the idea? For a paltry $10,000?

Yeah it wasn't very good

@mavica this but in the paul blart mall cop font

listening to a Quadraphonic mix of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon and The Great Gig in the Sky couldn't be a more fitting mood right now

@mavica bev is fine, yes

Right, need to stop being hesitant and experiment with things, so let's give this a shot

For a while I'm gonna try out the name in my profile. See if it fits, that sort of thing.

If you're used to my online handle, it's okay if you still call me Tonic. I'm not gonna enforce it too much.

@mavica understandable. perhaps I'm worrying about this too much and should just give it a try

and I haven't even thought of the legal name change stuff at this stage

Lately I've been thinking about my name and how I wanna go by online.

Almost everywhere it's either my online handle (Tonic) or my given name (B.J.), which is basically my real name but in initials.

I've been trying to think of women's names that fit my initials and I seem to lean towards "Beverly."

It's better than my actual first name, but I keep feeling like it's too old-fashioned.

Picking names is hard.

update: underground 80s is now playing hard times.

this doesn't surprise me in the least
