If you get your car routine service at a big chain, look on their website to see if they have a coupon. Valvoline almost always has a coupon for something. $10 off oil change isn't much but it ads up and you can do it like while you wait for them to do your car

Just finished my Crimson Flower run of fire emblem 3h (about 50 hours) and I immediately started my Verdant Wind run. I can't believe I got so obsessed with it again after all this time but enough to actually learn how to make the most of the game and all the things you can really do. Shits good

Microsoft shoved their AI Copilot into everything in Windows 11. Which lead to an increase in Windows 10 use. So they announced they'd stop support for Windows 10, but its usage was still strong. So they started to put Copilot into Windows 10.

Windows 7 use is surging 5x now.

AI is product poison.

I've had fe3h for all 6 years its been out and have 100 hours in it I am now watching a youtube series to learn the mechanics of the game

(I have 3-4 runs where I got to the time skip and then was too bad to keep playing and gave up, hence how I have so many hours and still don't know how to play)

My mom asked to use my steam cleaner to clean the grout in her kitchen and I said 'yes' but what I meant was 'I'm going to do it for you when you're not home for the weekend because there's no way I'm gonna have you scrubbing the floor like that for that long'

Honestly its looking great too

side note: if you're trying to section off an area like a room divider situation and you get the curtain rod kind, curtains are expensive. but sheets are cheap. I enclosed the whole 9x12 area rug with 4 sheets and they were $11 ea, $8 for a pack of rings with clips. no sewing, just fold over.

my enclosure is complete and I am now setting up my pc

(enclosure is the little area in the unfinished basement that I am making cute for the purposes of having a nice place to chill at my computer)

I find what makes it better is if there are horses. Drive by horses is great

we're a little deep into the city but are off a major highway and I'm surprised by how quiet it is

my parents house we've been in for 5 years is remote for the area(nothing in the grand scheme of how remote a place can be) and it is quiet and a really pretty drive so I didn't mind how long it took to get anywhere but I really like this. It helps that this is somehow a super quiet neighborhood

I have wanted this for so long! The last place I lived there was a shopping center that I walked to a bit but... it was a 50 minute walk lol it was not 'walkable' I just took a long walk there

I moved in with my sister who lives in Baltimore and its so nice to be somewhere walkable. I walked down the street and got a hair cut from a really cool barber shop, then on the way back got a really good cocktail and some wings from a brewery. Read my book while I enjoyed my wings and cocktail.

all of a sudden realized I can hear the sound of my mouse scroll wheel moving and I don't like ite oh this is not good

re-upping for no apparent reason

how to safely extinguish tear gas canisters

my plan to move friday and saturday and then kind of put stuff away but chill sunday and not do anything monday turned into me being go go go from thursday when I got home to... its still happening I have not relaxed at all and I am still not anywhere near unpacked but that do be what moving is like

TR*MP WHAT this is the way I'm hearing about this and I feel like my brain is twisting inside out

someone is not having a good day and I know this because there is someone parking a 26ft penske truck across the street and its 11:40 pm

have they tried hiring people that actually like dinosaurs to make these jurassic world movies? I feel like they hire the people they can find that like dinosaurs the least and that's why they keep ending up like this...

my sister has an old house in the city so if I was literally any taller I wouldn't be able to stand in the basement but since I'm a little guy it is actually an okay place to make my little office

I got the 'signature hot' wings from popeyes and they are so sweet wtf what is wrong with them
its like a little spice at the end and the rest of the sauce is so terribly sweet like what
I stg everything from everywhere is way too sweet all the time

I'm moving this weekend and wow goodie for me I don't need to move my TV bc it stopped working 🥰

(I will be taking it to recycle)

I want to write again so badly but I feel like the part of my brain capable of it is gone and that makes me sad because I had so many more ideas that I wanted to write and then I abruptly couldn't write anymore and its been almost 2 years

made a frozen pizza from aldi and it looks and smells like I'm supposed to be at a bowling alley

I love workwear. I really do. But as someone seeking workwear for work, I must say, that workwear becoming fashionable is the worst thing that has ever happened to the price and quality of said workwear

My younger sister is monitoring weather apps for peak UV for tanning and I am buying a sun hoodie seeking the ever elusive 'no UV'

Yeah worrying if another being has or hasn't pooped and why or why not just ain't for me

Dog sitting has reminded me how much I do not desire to take care of another creature and I look forward to 2 days from now when its over and they get back from vacation

I have tried so many forms of exercise at so many different schedules/routines and I am just... its so boring like brain want to do anything else

Every time I acknowledge this I'm like 'no... this can't be'
