I got Valve VR Knuckles for my 40th birthday (extravagant!) and so far they've lived on the couch. That's no good, so today I played with some plywood and dowels.
The first time I mounted a game controller on the wall, I wondered how the heck I'd never considered it anything less than absolutely mandatory. Leaving one thing on the couch or table invites more things to live there until it gets messy enough to provoke Bad Feels, at least for me.
[talking to an alien]
me: yeah so we have like, wikipedia
alien: whats that
me: an online encyclopedia people can edit
alien: ah so you have scholars publish there?
me: not really, any asshole with an internet connection can make a page glorifying whatever nazi they want
alien: ... and is it reviewed?
me: nah, there's also not really any standards so if you halfheartedly bang out anything on any subject and nobody is bothered to change it its just like that
these are the alice in wonderland teacups i was talking about earlier btw. the pink one on the left was sold on mercari for $150 ??? and that’s the only trace of these we’ve seen online about them EVER
there is also a square white/blue one and a round yellow one that i want desperately. if anyone has any info on these please lmk 🥺

This is also relevant in this situation. The desire to "abandon" the south is inherently racist
Too many interests/hobbies, a novice at most of them, my computer is old, 29 he/him, Chicago.
Trying my best to both open myself to new experiences and nail down some understanding of the world.
Working on having humility without beating myself up.
Currently reveling in the absurdity while respecting the tragedy of it all.
Too lame to be cool.
