day 71. this is the beginning of the end of the maimai arc. the local op has gone and swapped the good touch panel over to the side with the good monitor. no news on whether the cracked button on that side was replaced too, but i can still play screen in the meantime.

first it was my tablet pen, and now my MOUSE is playing hide-and-seek under my chair.

day 65. i enjoyed trying chunithm...but i haven't spent more than 145 hours in 7 months playing the equivalent of 3 to $400's worth of sets, let alone studying charts and improving my skills. as time wears on, as unwilling as i am to let go, i'm starting to ask myself: is this it--a post-maimai era?

two months in. still no sign of maimai getting any closer to playable. i'm better off now than i was last month--financially and mentally--but i'm still in limbo. i broke even on my membership vs. wristbands for april, hoping it'd be back soon. alas, i'm still here, screaming into the bsky aether...

As a Splatoon player since 2016, I fell in love with Calabiyau/Strinova's movement at first sight. TL;DR: They took this meme and ROLLED with it. After going back to Windows for unrelated reasons, I gave it a try myself, and "To The Beatuiful" is a banger. The game is OK too I guess.

day 53. the local rgc discord was teasing me this morning--pinging me with photos of washing machines and vrchat screenshots. as time wears on with little/no news since sakuracon got squandered, "when" feels more like "if". i got astrodx playable on my old tablet, but it's just not the same.

day 49. the endless feeling of yearning seems inescapable. i haven't left the house in days. my life has ground to a halt. i've heard enough of "it X when it X". despite my finances, i've seriously considered--several times--travelling out of state to play. i'm that desperate.

I'm holding on as long as I can. Kaizen cabs are still several months out--and that's assuming anywhere in my area is down for the first batch--still no monitor or panel for the local FiNALE cab, and I don't have the $ to upgrade my tablet, build a con, or move. What's a maimai player like me to do?

I just discovered you can middle click the back and forward buttons in Brave (or another Chromium browser, I'm sure) to open that page in a duplicate tab. I pressed the wrong button on my tablet pen. Some of the best things are discovered by accident.

I always seem to start a load of laundry an hour before I have to get out the door. And then I remember I have to dry them too.

konmai sorely missed the opportunity to call ddr "feetmania"

mildly annoyed that i have to keep mashing a through news that's not news to me just to get into the funny squid game

I've already shared this on Twitter, but I may as well repost it here, too.

totally didn't have a health scare with my tablet. /* ctx: my old tablet's worn micro-b port didn't stay connected and it drained overnight, to the point that it didn't show the "charging" icon immediately when I plugged it in. i'm using it for astro while i await a fix on my local maimai cab. */

I've discovered 43 Bluesky users from my social network using the Sky Follower Bridge.✨ Check it out: share.sky-follower-bridge.dev?q=43 #skyfollowerbridge // False positives are possible. Please let me know if this app is barking up the wrong tree.

i just use a vencord plugin and call it a day

Henlo frens! If you came here from Twitter (I'm @/m1n0rm1n3r over there), welcome to the dark side. I'm still trying to get this all set up, so...pardon the dust. If we know each other, please do get in touch with me on Discord or w/e and I'll drop you a follow. 🤗
