i feel ancient now because someone on a discord server asked if anyone could answer questions about life in 1992 (specifically, how you got new music to listen to) and i was the one that knew
and also that knew that having your lucky ballpoint pen for dealing with cassette tapes that had unspooled was very important
because others didn't
on account of being too young
to deal with that

shadowbringers spoilers lv 78-79, also just bad. not even proper lewd because nobody is going to find this sexy, it's just bad. this is just a bad post. but i still made it and laughed at it so
sorry not sorry #ffxiv tag
I wanted to draw a sweet lolita and use my copic markers again after a long time. I just love Lovely Lor's YouTube videos and her fashion sense, so I chose one of her coords to draw.

man soken really pulled out all the stops for shadowbringers
the story battle theme ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q84AoPNkHj4 , spoilers in visuals for the video) is SO GOOD. i am especially in love with the part where the brass section comes in (around 1:27 on the vid) and we almost get to fuckin James Bond theme big band for a second there
and just in case there's about to be a rush of MNEH MNEH THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD RUN LINUX INSTEAD OF ICKY WINDOWS:
1. if i wasn't too fucking disabled to be constantly running that level of tech support for myself, i'd be out working as a tech support person instead of being disabled, you absolute numpty
2. when i googled the problem the answer for unix was 15 steps more complicated and involved multiple iterations of command line prompts.
the new external keyboard does work a lot better when i don't forget to somehow disable the old internal keyboard it is resting on LOL
i swear though that there used to be a setting for this. like just. "hey laptop, when i have an external device delivering keyboard/mouse input, please turn off your internal ones." i swear this used to be just like a toggle. but now i have to trick windows into obeying me lol. is this just a fever dream of common sense on my part? who knows
the keys are also rather high up, but not a pain to press down, so that's fine
it's a bit on stilts so you can admire the rainbow backlight, but since you can remove the caps on this and put them back on properly (instead of the laptop's chiclet keyboard which is 'haha good luck dumbass'), i'm hoping that maybe my precious beautiful wonderful dog's CONSTANT CREATION OF SO MUCH SHED FUR will not worm its way into this keyboard so much
so i got a usb keyboard because several keys are wanting to fuck off on my laptop and i'm tired of having to stick on the D key every time i try to use it, and just kinda. stuck it on top. because i don't have the money to have a tech replace the keyboard proper on my lappertopper right now.
but anyway
it has a rainbow backlight and clacky keys and i feel enormously important now with clacky keys
it's like keys that go clack are a +20 buff to Important Business Things Happening
also, this thai fashion lookbook from 1968 - i would honestly wear half of this stuff y'all (especially if i could get a modern set of colors in lol) (like the last pic's dress that has the colorblock thing going on? yeah i'd wear that, if you could give it to me in colors other than 'hamburger brown, ketchup red, mustard yellow', for sure) https://www.flickr.com/photos/inkvision/1340295595/
stumbled into browsing a tumblr full of vintage shit and honestly this 1930's lady is just how i'm trying to be this summer (https://www.flickr.com/photos/epiclectic/48124941342/ for full source)

i hasten to add, you don't have to like pasta sauce
it's also sometimes good to shout in the pasta sauce aisle if you're saying something like "hey guys don't eat that pasta sauce there's ground-up glass in it, it's not safe"
but like
if you just don't like pasta sauce
i'm not sure why you gotta shout that at people who are there browsing the pasta sauce in the pasta sauce aisle.
just don't be a jerkwad

idk man it's probably over politeness but i don't get tagging negativity?
if you have genuine information that's one thing, but it's like going to the supermarket to stand in the pasta sauce aisle that's marked 'pasta sauce' in order to loudly state how you fuckin hate pasta sauce.
like... great??? fantastic?? what outcome are you expecting with this exactly? everyone going "omg i see the light, i also hate this thing" just cos you don't like it??? JUST LET ME BUY MY PASTA SAUCE
