So PSA for anyone wanting to play the non-remade Silent Hill 2, and especially anyone who needs to *capture footage* of it—Silent Hill 2 Enhanced Edition is a fanmade mod for the old abandonware PC port which makes it look *absolutely stunning*: enhanced.townofsilenthill.com/SH2/

Hey Hey guess what The Novel is now actually a novel baby! We did it! Well, I did it. But we did it! #writing

Youtube’s ad algorithm has been bombarding me with an unrelenting onslaught of ads for alcohol which is… a choice? I’m not a recovering alcoholic, but could you imagine if I was? If every time I went to watch something I had twenty videos of people drinking beer thrust in my face? Shit sucks.

I have defeated society! (Read: beat Persona 5R). Now I just have to do it in real life

Pair of ladies across from me at the coffee shop having a heated discussion about how annoyed they are that the sermon at their church today encouraged them to go to a pride parade or something and how it "makes them uncomfortable" and how they're "alienating some people" I love living here :)

The script for my next essay is now complete at 3,512 words! So, let's play a game! Try and guess what it's about from just the games I'll be spoiling. If you get it right, I'll, idk, throw a screenshot of your guess at the end of the video or something. You'll be extremely-niche famous!

Why is it that every time I have a good day something bad happens in the evening and throws my whole brain out of whack and then I have to spend my evening struggling to exist This keeps happening and it feels targeted I’d like to see a manager

#writing goal complete; 800 words on The Essay, 1,000 words on The Novel. I am *shocked* at how well this is going, especially with how much I was struggling with The Novel before this. Apparently I just needed a creative outlet from my creative outlet? It's outlets all the way down, baby.

Well, as of tonight, I have officially completed every palace in P5R, including the bonus one (but excluding Mementos), in the minimum number of visits required. Now I just gotta kill time until the final final V3 final boss.

And of course, the day I decide on this is the day I hit a flow state on The Novel and add 1,600 words to it alone. I didn't think of a contingency for thissssssss #writing

Okay, nobody cares, but here’s the plan, because I need one if my dumb brain’s gonna do this: - Daily writing goal’s increased from 1000 to 1500 words - This must be split between both projects - It can be split however it needs to be that day. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Well, the good news is that I did end up writing today. Over 1,200 words, even. And they’re good words! Damn fine words. The bad(?) news is that it wasn’t The Novel… It was an essay script. I guess I’m doing both now.

Now I’m in the “really fucking need to do something, anything creative but can’t come up with anything to actually do or make any ideas manifest” phase and it’s pissing me off. I sure am finding a lot of things to complain about to strangers today, huh. Whoops.

Laptop’s done this thing a few times now where it’ll be doing something a little strenuous while not plugged in and despite being fully charged it’ll suddenly go black screen and unresponsive, the power button’ll flash, I have to do a manual shut down, and then it says the battery’s empty.

Was flipping through some Nintendo Powers from the early 2010’s I happen to own and have discovered the existence of this Not-Layton:

I am absolutely 100% writer's blocked today. In the coffee shop, got my americano, ate my sandwich, got The Novel open, conditions are perfect and yet I cannot pry a single sentence out of my brain. I *want* to write, I just can't. Maybe I'll try #writing something else, just for today.

Happy Juneteenth from the whitest fuck you'll ever meet, by the way! See? If I can say it, so can everyone. It's not hard!

Y’know previously I’d just been muting any account posting AI-generated liberal images, but screw that. You’re all getting blocked now. Fuck you and fuck the plagiarism machine you rode in on.

Geller book is making me want to do more video essays but a) every one I’ve started since Metaphor has fallen apart in scripting and b) if I pause The Novel I know I won’t finish it. Currently attempting to perform mitosis, will report back

Managed 500 words, that'll have to be good enough for today. I feel a little bit more human, now, at least. I dunno why I feel the need to post these status updates. Maybe I just don't have anything else worth talking about, lol. Sorry for taking up feed space. #writing

Feeling extra shellshocked today. All the last few months’ bullshit is catching up to me. I know if I don’t work on The Novel it’ll just get worse, but I so don’t feel up to it. I need to write to stay sane and I need to be sane to write. #writing: not even once.

The gov. just getting to *decide* shit like this almost makes you sympathize with the “small government” position, and then you remember it’s partly the libertarians who got us here. I’m so tired.

Persona 5 R update: I have now beaten the base game, just as I did with the original P5 when it came out. Personal progress has been made, though: the final boss took me like ten tries the first time, and this time I handed his divine ass to him first try! Eat shit, loser!

...and just like that I blew through all my #writing time today on writing poetry and arranging/rearranging my hypothetical future poetry collection and didn't make any progress on The Novel. Don't know how to feel about that. Ah well.

I started writing this before I saw what just happened in NYC, but this feels all the more pertinent after it. #poem #poetry #writing
