Lil bit of a bummer, feels like I just exercise, work, and sleep. My limited free time has been spent on my family, which… ughhhh by the time I realized they mistreated me all my life and I hate them, they’d lost power over me, so basically they’re not pushing me around anymore and think we’re all friends, and I don’t know how to tell them that I’m retroactively spiteful. So I play nice.

Gonna try so hard to get some reading and drawing done in the coming days.

There are better CAD memes, imo. I forget their url, but there’s someone on Tumblr who does really good surreal edits.

I think CAD is kind of a fascinating trainwreck in how it stumbled down the gimmick-comic-to-dramedy pipeline. Loss is one symptom of that, but god, there’s so much more, and “it’s bad because a comedy decided to do a serious episode!!” doesn’t cover it.

Everyone loved the only guy in youth group who watched Homestar Runner.

Too bad we have to be mean to bugs every other day of the year

I really like YouTube Revanced on Android, it’s a patcher that includes an ad blocker as well as a ton of other QOL fixes.

But I understand why more people don’t fuck with it, because if you install it wrong, your app will bug in the weirdest ways. Like my YouTube app kept getting renamed with the content of my last error message.

This is what my family thinks public school is like

Anyone else instinctively look for the Obvious Plant logo?

This joke can be easily altered to target North Americans, just photoshop a hamburger bun in.

That one year where I was buying a new piece of kitchen equipment right before every holiday 😅

I don’t think you need to apologize at all, that sounds like a terrifying situation. I’m happy you at least have a good vehicle to make that drive, but I wish it wasn’t necessary to jump through such hoops.

My mom’s birthday :> I’m a little sad as I’d hoped to have a surprise party for her, but I had to move unexpectedly and it took most of my savings. But hopefully she’ll enjoy dinner with a couple of her kids.

ETA also downloaded a geography quiz to take in my idle time. I didn’t really get the K-12 education that’s expected in the US, and I’ve always wanted to do better, but I can’t seem to study anything in a way that sticks. But I noticed I’ve gotten pretty good at word games and sudoku lately, so maybe I just need to make it a puzzle.

I actually enjoy the weekly threads. Theoretically the answers will be different every week, even if it’s the same question.

Of course sometimes you get caught in a rut. But having new things to tell people about be a motivator to break a rut.

That’s a pretty design!

Not horrendously bad? I had a depressive episode and nearly made some bad choices, but looking at it objectively, everything’s fine externally. Weren’t any outside factors getting worse that drove me here, nothing I can’t bounce back from.

I think I’m just tired the gym/work/sleep cycle every single day, but it feels like whenever I try to expand, the door gets slammed in my face.

Hoping something pans out soon.

Fuck, I’m sorry. I hope you’re able to bounce back.

That’s actually the joke of the original comic. The kid calls the guy Shrek, and the mom apologizes for her daughter’s rudeness before saying something like “no, that’s just an ugly bald man”.

I like how every time it gets edited, there are people in the comments who notice the Shrek similarity but don’t always agree if it’s intentional. The artist did a good job on that front.

Thank you, that’s very kind ❤️

I thought they were just trying to hammer home how wild it was for the file to get that big, since it’s just a text file.

My mobility has actually improved a ton since my youth!! Got injured as a kid and laid in bed all the time afterwards. Kinda glad I have too many responsibilities nowadays to give into that temptation, that was the worst thing I could have done.

Saw another post mentioning geocaching, so I decided to give it a try! …I suck at it so far, I missed a FTF near my job despite trying for 40 minutes 😅 but it’s exciting

A lot of people around here seem to play with their kids, so I’m going to try to make some cute swag to hide this weekend.
