Happy September, everyone! Hope all my fellow Americans had a nice Labor Day weekend, and all my fellow not-Americans had a nice weekend anyway. The big announcement of today: the archives redesign is finally live! The original variant of archives was always meant to be pretty simple and quick, and I think five years living with it has been long enough. It's still up, funnily enough, on archives. You can probably see why it needed to go at some point, being just a gigantic list of links. Read more
Heading into London in a couple hours. The next time I update the journal, I'll be back in the US. We're in the final leg of the 2025 Wales trip, and it's honestly bizarre to watch it come to a close. It doesn't feel like I've been visiting—it just feels like I've been living here. I don't even really feel sad about it coming to a close, at least yet. Been really lovely, and it's got me super excited for the autumn to come. I have a lot to show off, a lot I want to make, and a lot I want to Read more
The last week dawns! Actually, this is the last five days in Wales or so. It's not quite hit me yet. Obviously it's sad, especially given that I've been here so long that I really do just feel like part of Caby's family now. I've gotten interrupted three times in making this post, once by Pokémon Puzzle Challenge, but once to chat Top Gear with her mom and another to chat about Quake and Valve games with her dad. Everyone save the guinea pigs has started up an hour plus long conversation with Read more
Ah man, the days get away from me... I never like it when I look up and three or four days have passed. We've been in a time loop recently! A very nice one, granted, but with the family still in France (they're coming back tomorrow, all good), and us having to stick fairly close to the house for piggo breakfast and dinner and also because they get lonely, it's been hard to get out of the house and do stuff. We've been night owls, really! Been meaning to update the journal with stuff I've been Read more
Hello chat! I have arrived in the UK. Or, more accurately, I arrived a week ago and have been too busy doing that thing called "living life" and "having fun" to update the journal. I'm sure you'll forgive me. That said! With there being so much having happened since I last updated, there will be a couple posts on the journal, some trip-related, some not, for you to enjoy. If you're wondering, it's been lovely so far. It's incredible going from all the awkwardness of a text chat to stepping out Read more
We're into the final two weeks before this year's trip to Wales! We've already bought most everything I'm bringing, including the vintage digicam for good measure. (I drunk bought another AOL PhotoCam a couple days ago for cheap, though fully working with pictures showing it powered on and in-box, so that'll be arriving tomorrow as well. What can I say? Fourth time's the charm.) Now all that's left to do is wait. If you're not following the RSS feeds for my album reviews and game reviews, go do Read more
If you've known me for a very long time, we're talking the teen years, and even then, you had to be close to me—okay, so basically, only Savannah knows, but still—I've actually had OC ideas and ambitions since I was 14, but a lack of drawing ability really kept me from sharing them widely. I tried to write them, but nobody reads that shit and it wasn't very good anyway. Even since I learned to draw, there's been a certain fear I've had of actually designing them for whatever reason. 2025 Read more
Well, I am again unemployed. This is the first time I've ever actually gotten fired from a job instead of leaving. If you're asking "well, what did you do?", so am I. I got broken up with over a thirty-second phone call that just said "we're making some changes and your services are no longer needed" at noon on my day off. That was it. Wasn't like "hey, was good working with you", no explanation for why, just "Okay? Alright, bye." And no, there were no writeups, no paper trail for any Read more
Well, what is this? A drawing from your old pal Cammy? Yeah, turns out Warring with my Mental Health doesn't stop me from drawing a fucking picture, because I don't suck dick on the weekends, so instead I lined this sketch of Bunny and afan from last year and shaded and colored it all sunny, because happy Easter, you fucks! Good times. Completely unrelated story: sometimes it takes a dragon spitting in your mouth (while fruitily whispering into your snoot how much you like it) for you to Read more
Happy belated six months of me working at my current job! This puts it in second place for longest jobs held, ahead of Staples and certainly ahead of Giant. It's been pretty good! Working at a beer distributor definitely beats working alcohol sales at grocery stores—lower volume of traffic, actual benefits, no purchase restrictions (I could sell you a whole 192oz back when I worked the grocery stores!), no assholes not buying booze who treat me as a human fast lane instead of the designated Read more
