picked up my 2DS again for the first time in a while. feels good to be back!

nintendo 3ds line up was top tier

this doesn’t include the 1700+ hrs that I have on ACNH or 700 hrs on my Xbox save of DDV

anyone else live off tums? my tummy is so upset! 😭

our relationship was rocky for a long time, but watching both of us soften, open up, and change for each other has been incredibly rewarding.

the other day at the airport, she saw a woman with a ouija board bag — and the coin purse was a planchette. my mom actually stopped her to ask where it was from because she knew I’d love it.

🧵 2/3

my mom has always been scared of anything “occult” — tarot, ouija boards, all of it. growing up, that stuff was totally off-limits.

as I’ve embraced my own practice, I’ve shared more of it with her. it took time, but she’s slowly become more open and curious.

Oh no! I’m glad you’re looking at it that way at least, and I hope something new ends up being great :)

Such a classic!!

I agree! I’m so appreciative of the physical media that we have floating around from an era when it was much more under appreciated. Any time im in a thrift store, I check out the media section to see some really neat finds!

I completely get this! I was on windows 11 for a few months, but I’ve been on windows since I got a computer back in ‘05. I was on macOS for a year or two. But they all had their limitations at a certain point.

That’s what I’m noticing! There’s a little something for everyone, and they’re fun when you’re willing to find the right one :)

Oh I’m definitely going to have to look into this one too!

I went with pop!_os because of the steam compatibility. I’m loving what I have so far :)

Awesome!! I am really enjoying my current os :) I’m so glad I made the switch!

There are so many things I’m still learning about Linux as a whole!

I went with pop!_os to start, and we will see where I end up :)

been easing myself from windows over to linux lately and honestly? kinda loving it.

anyone else running linux? what distro are you on & what made you pick it?

I love that so many artists produce vinyls still!! With that and CDs, I think we could really do ourselves a favor with media collection

100%

LETS GOOO i am so proud of you, friend!!

this is like my dream come true! 🤩

i’ve been using my iPod instead of streaming, and it’s kind of reminding me why physical media mattered.

do you think we could ever go back to physical media? dvds, mixed cds, or even just a classic vinyl?

I get you!! sometimes I don’t vibe with games in general so I just pause on them. usually I just play little games on my phone in between phases 🥰

it’s mostly an uncle kk playlist 😉

currently curating a collection of songs that say, ‘I pay alimony but I still love my Harley.’

yes, it’s a divorced dad rock playlist

currently playing: animal crossing new horizons.

what game has been your comfort reset lately?

midweek reminder to clean your reusable water bottles and take 10 minutes for something gentle ✨

what’s your peace looking like today?
