salticidae: marceline singing and playing her bass (marceline)
Went and got my novavax & flu shots today, hopefully they don't knock me out too bad 🤞 Also Tilly is slowly getting more and more cuddly with me >:3 she's started climbing on top of me during her breakfast wake-up calls and sat in bed with me soliciting scritches for a good 15 minutes today too.

I started playing Dredge a few days ago and I'm enjoying it way more than I thought I would - not that I thought it was going to be like. boring or whatever, I just don't usually play fishing games so I wasn't sure what to expect. I might be playing it a little too cautiously though lol I think I totally missed my chance to investigate that big red light from the first ~week of game time. Well that's just how it goes sometimes... but I wish the fishmonger would stop rubbing it in whenever I go to sell my catch lol

Also I'm obsessed with this biscochito flavored tea I bought recently. I'd never heard of the cookies before this but the tea is delicious (it's a hojicha base with cinnamon and anise (usually I dislike anise but idk there's just something about it in this tea...)) so now I really want to try the cookies themselves (or even try making my own).

I've been watching old Armored Core LPs recently because I'm interested in the newest game (for extremely shallow robot reasons lol) and in retrospect I shouldn't really keep being shocked by this but the combination of these being fromsoft games in the mecha genre means they keep shooting bits of wildly concerning lore right over your head without even a little bit of followup. In these games it only comes in the form of mission briefings instead of item descriptions (there aren't really "items" that you "pick up" like in the soulsborne games, and if the mech parts you can buy in the shop menu have any description beyond their stats none of the LPers I've watched are choosing to display them) or even any cryptic NPCs you can talk to, so it's even more piecemeal and obviously biased than usual.

Mostly this means it's stuff like "hello mercenary we're hiring you to eliminate this squad of ecoterrorists from a power plant on behalf of the megacorporation that owns it" but just now the mission description opened with "The Maghrib Liberation Front is White Africa's largest anti-establishment group" and then said the fortress they were holed up in was "a holdover from the wars of ethnic cleansing"????? The mission was to blow them up but still. good lord

My brother's wedding is at the end of the month and I still haven't been able to find any good shoes to buy for it -____- I mean it's going to be relatively casual for a wedding so things could be worse but trying to find something in my size that goes with the rest of my outfit (dressy coveralls with modified blazer) (so like ideally I get a dressy "work" boot or something) that doesnt cost like 400 dollars is becoming a trial from god. Worst comes to worst I'm probably just going to get a basic pair of Docs since my mom already said that would be ok lol

Oh I beat Bomb Rush Cyberfunk the other day! The story ended up being a little lighter-weight than I thought it would but tbh that works for it I think. The platforming in it really is the star of the game - soooo fun and fluid.

Work is really grating on me lately :/ we don't have half the staff we should (I know everywhere is understaffed these days but this feels really egregious) so naturally instead of bothering to hire people the owner is subjecting us all to a totally unnecessary and overhyped construction project. I'm trying to keep the wise words of our friend Da Share Zone in my head but this situation is a little too complicated for me to Just Walk Out on unfortunately.

Anyway here are a bunch of Tilly pictures please enjoy :3 Read more... )

You know, the real adjustment period I'm having to go through with Tilly is the fact that she's the kind of cat that needs someone to watch her eat... but only after she's down to the crumbs for some reason. She scarfs down two thirds of it no problem but she needs a buddy for the rest of it. Also she keeps wandering off before she actually finishes, so I'm like "ok cool I can go do something else" and then five minutes later she's crying at me to go back and sit in front of her dish again. I have to go make dinner for me too girl

In other news I picked up Bomb Rush Cyberfunk and it's fun as hell *____* Art direction: dope. Platforming: slick. Story: just right (so far. I'm not done yet lol). Soundtrack: absolutely fucking off the charts.
