sweet iced tea is also potentially on this list but idk if the 'milk or no milk, bubbles or no bubbles' infighting would get too vicious
i realize i come from a place of enormous privilege to even get to consider using instacart for grocery shopping, but i'm also frustrated that it's basically the only way i can ever shop aldi lol
yes i know it's to keep prices low but something simple like "bagging your own groceries" means i'm looking at being wiped the fuck out for several days. it makes a grocery trip "plausible with careful planning" into "utterly implausible lmao". 8(
Harp's Video Game Wishlist Of Varying Implausibility, continued, yet again:
7. remasters of x/y and sun/moon on switch because fuck y'all they're good ok
8. the biggest yet most impossible desire: that the team developing The Secret World/Secret World Legends be given adequate funding and unburdened by the yoke of Funcom Monetization Bullshit, making the game less of a bastard grind and them free to continue to create meaningful things instead of lootbox foibles
Video Games Wishlist Of Varying Implausibility Continued:
5. straight-up mobile ports or adaptations of Catz/Dogz 4 or 5, no microtransaction bullshit, just The Game, perhaps with some mobile social features like putting out an "ambassador dog" people can play with, being able to send petz easily to others, etc.
6. also the Creatures series to make a comeback, in its hard biology sim roots. If I Can't Tinker On An Individual Gene Level I Don't Want It Motherfuckers
and now apropos of nothing, here's Harp's Video Game Wishlist Of Varying Implausibility
1. switch port for Bastion
2. switch port for Recettear
3. hd rerelease/remaster of KOTOR 1, with KOTOR 2 but like, unfucked and unmangled into a whole game. throw 'em on the switch too, fuck it
4. while i'm at it, hd remaster of Fallout New Vegas and you know where this is going: switch release for it
(i will take my chances going into gammorah while on the airplane ok)
shoutout to my vyvanse for deciding to fuck off all day but only come around for the last 30 minutes it can hang around in my system
i mean i'm glad that it showed up enough for me to dump like 6 paragraphs of enthusiastic pro-mental-wellness-and-recovery at somebody but also WHERE WERE YOU WHEN I WAS TRYING TO WRITE EARLIER
it's tales of wind. i'm shading tales of wind by the way
the actual gameplay stuff is... working better than i thought a mobile mmorpg was gonna be but y'all it might be worth the download to just laugh your ass off at the real fucking bad voice acting
just select female rogue in character creation and know that it's 100% Susan From Accounts Payable Who They Suggested Do It 'Cos She Shopped At Hot Topic Once
so i may have downloaded a mobile mmorpg on a lark last night and oh my god y'all this has some of the most comedically bad voice acting i have ever heard
it's so clear that they were just like "we don't need VOICE ACTORS! we got voices! hey susan, get over here and say these lines. you got a kid at home, right? yeah bring him in tomorrow..."
me: oh boy creative brain is here time to write!!!
creative brain: well looks like i should be going
me: but i wrote 3 paragraphs and then figured out a good french name and now you're leaving??? what about the rest of the chapter?!??!!?
creative brain: lolbye
me: hmmm maybe i can must muscle on through....
my shoulder: well actually about this whole "typing at the computer thing" :)
me: ...
me: :(
honestly you can tell pretty much the exact vibe i'm going for with this harry potter fic with me explaining that i was finally driven to start writing it after hearing The Roches, specifically Hammond Song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09ypwCN9FDc
there's something just... immediately gripping about this song that does not want to go, and i find deeply compelling in a way i can't quite explain
please give it a chance honestly
