I had a late night watching Trigun Stargaze with my best friend last night, so I woke up late today. Now I'm trying to figure out what to eat. I think I'm doing ok :)

My brother in law. Dude is a lazy pos who barely takes care of his kid and complains about everything. He does nothing to make my sister's life easier, she does all of the housework, childcare, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, etc. She's starting to slowly stand up for herself though, which is good. I've already said my piece to her, so she knows I'm waiting on the sidelines with a shovel if need be.

The age I am today (mid 30s). I've been dealing with depression basically my whole life, and while I've never been actively suicidal, I never really had a knack for planning years into the future because I figured for some reason or another I wouldn't be here, so what was the point? I'm doing a little better; these days my mentality is more "I've made it this far, might as well continue." I give myself little things to look forward to.

It's kind of funny to me that this question popped up, because my best friend and I were talking about this just last night lol.

2547, according to chrome://sync-internals, that I have built up around 15-20 years. I treat my bookmarks as more of a "read later" thing though, and a good chunk are also potential recipes and gaming guides. There's only 1 that I use almost daily, due to it being work related.

I finished the story Pacific Drive, and I'm not sure how I feel about the ending. It was nice, but it just kind of... happened? It was a bit anticlimactic, imo. But, I still find the gameplay super fun, so I'm still driving around the Zone and seeing what all I can collect and upgrading the base.

Also started Diablo 4 Season 12. I'm trying the Spiritborn class again and hoping that I have a better time than last time I used that class. It is really fun being the Butcher though, lol.

Still making my way through Pacific Drive and I am having an absolute blast. I will admit that I had to disable the random instability storms because they were giving me complete anxiety to the point that I wasn't enjoying the game like I wanted to. That's the only thing I messed with, but it is nice to see the devs gave so many options to customize how easy/hard the game is for yourself. The music is great too! I love having the radio on while I'm tinkering around in the auto shop base, and the intermittent "strange signals" are fun to listen to.

I have a hotmail address that I still regularly use for silly stuff. The earliest email I can find under it is from March 2006.

I was obsessed with this game for a few months when it first came out. I've had thoughts here and there about checking back in to poke around, but I guess not. I'm sure my base is a mess from raiders for as long as I've been gone.

In my last apartment, the bedroom that I slept in had a sort of "open floor" layout to it, so the bathroom was kind of just there on one side, there was no door to close. It was kind of nice, I just kept an air purifier on that side of the room.

lol that was actually one of my thoughts as I was playing, how insane it would be in VR!

I started Pacific Drive, which I think I like so far? It feels a little tedious getting into it, but I'm sure I'll have a better hang of it once I get the mechanics down.

Edit: After a good few hours of playing, yeah, I like this game so far lol.

I recently finished a playthrough of Ghostwire: Tokyo, and I enjoyed it as much as I did the first time, and maybe even a little more. I love all the lore and little easter eggs, and ngl I was a little sad when I ran out of side missions and collectibles to find. Now I've just been going through the Spider's Thread dlc and working on wrapping up the last three Nekomata jobs I have left.
