I can't believe in 2012 I wrote an article worrying I was being xenophobic for not writing about Japanese games.

And in that same article I had used "from the rising sun" in the title.

reposted because I confused the day of visibilty with the day of remembrance and I don't know how I did that

oh it's that trans day of visibility thing

I guess I'm still non-binary? lately my gender's been in a mood of "I feel femme sometimes but otherwise I just feel tired" 😪

hey mc hammer, not every song needs to be a prodding slog that's 5 minutes long

save that for the 12" mixes, dude

Watching Classic Concentration.

Sometimes there's a computer as a prize. People go "oh, I'd really like that."

Then they win the game and it turns out to be an Apple IIc computer.

Which is... not really the best computer? Even by 1987 standards?

Sorry I haven't been using mastodon as of late.

A minor issue from a week ago has given me less incentive to post. I might change that soon.

This morning, I eventually went back to refine the post some more after I realized I was accidentally mimicking the style of another writer whom I've been binge-reading articles from.

While I didn't plagiarize anything, it did feel different from the other stuff I wrote, thus I went back and tried to give my own spin on it.

It's great when I look at something I wrote two days after I wrote it and make it look nicer.

I'm even doing the old trick of "reading it out loud so it doesn't sound weird" which seems to work okay?

Today is Friday the 13th, time to play the soundtrack to the oft-maligned NES game.

A shame that all the videos of the OST on Youtube use like some really bad NSF rip where the percussion is way too loud.

One of my challenges lately is getting the motivation to write.

I keep thinking that I need to bang out 1,500 words in one go.

I really need to think smarter and write smaller pieces, even if they're not blog-worthy material or something.

A friend of mine on Facebook shared a video of someone playing that Ms. Pac-Man prototype with the weird face.

Weird place to see that, honestly

a Japanese model I follow on instagram is sharing pictures of her modeling an ahegao skirt and socks.

scientists were too preoccupied, etc etc

Totally forgot I bought HOME's Odyssey album so now I'm listening to Resonance and reliving the days of 2014-era synthwave

I dreamt that The Critic came back and I had somehow written the show's first episode.

I've never written a screenplay so that probably would've been garbage, never mind the fact that The Critic was a great show because of the timing and would be bad today if it was revived.
