5/11/23 18:41 sometimes i convince myself i'm an esper

5/10/23 21:50 holy shit guys someone hacked myanimelist and replaced all the titles with "let's all love lain" o_o

5/2/23 1:03 i may not always enjoy my life in full but sometimes i can't help but feel so lucky to have the set of human experiences that i have. i like what i am even if i'm fated to be another forgotten tragedy of my time. (and what if i'm not?)

5/2/23 00:04 thinking of doing a castlevania marathon, starting with Lament of Innocence (never played).

5/1/23 20:31 it's worth noting none of these blurbs (especially any negative ones) will probably ever be about anyone specific on here because that's kind of irresponsible.

5/1/23 19:38 reading Magic Knight Rayearth. i really hope i like this one by the end.

5/1/23 19:14 i'm just itching to go down the rabbit hole with that game but i'm too busy rn :(((

5/1/23 19:11 i have autism, but you're literally on my website so you should've guessed that already o_O

5/1/23 19:08 this website is actually meant to be viewed in 1920x1080, because i'm using a big ass tv for my monitor. i love blue light!!!!!!!!!!!

4/30/23 21:12 i got something real interesting for you guys…

today while looking for more X68000 games to emulate i came across this one game called The Last Tempest by Koucha Kikaku. this is the only game this guy has ever made, seemingly vanishing into thin air afterwards. the game seems to be about a "prince of darkness" battling christ's second coming and legions of angels. it plays sort of like snake.



the only copy of this i found is going for 30,000 yen (~200 USD) on yahoo auctions. the disk copies i found online are copy-protected. tokugawa forums details ways to get past this protection, but i've had no success. all links they post to the partially cracked game are dead. once i find a way to replicate their success i will review the game and link/detail ways to crack it for anyone interested. i hope i can help revive some interest in it.

this game looks cool as fuck.

4/28/23 11:23 i hate this blog

4/27/23 14:39 she wasn't lying. that [internet] can [provide escapism from the horrors of the real].

4/26/23 13:04 lukewarm showers are the best

4/25/23 22:33 the spite i have for myself is why i hurt others. the road to healing begins and ends at me. i need to transcend mortal fears and listen to my heart.

4/22/23 21:08 taking a break from my site to help my partner w theirs

4/21/23 19:01 i'm delivering part time now. i like doing silly little tasks.

4/21/23 12:19 i seem to have bit off more than i can chew with this website...

4/21/23 11:46 sometimes my dreams exist just outside of the realm of possibility. for example, someone i hardly talk to and recently began to hate gave me a flip phone as a gesture of friendship. not just any flip phone, though; this one was comprised of several plates and could fold in on itself, much like the band of a metal watch. these dreams always leave me with a surreal sense of nostalgia upon waking up, leading me to believe some of it might’ve actually happened for up to 30 minutes afterwards.

4/21/23 00:15 dysphoria is so fuckn bad today hnnnngh

4/20/23 15:42 taking that aforementioned break. when i come back i think i'll redo the hub. it's not cluttered enough and a little ugly to look at.

4/20/23 15:38 [post-renewal addedum: removed audio has since been reintroduced for aesthetic purposes] decided to remove background audio. will be missed :c

4/20/23 15:35 [post-renewal addedum: a now broken youtube embed of the popular "Out Of Touch Thursday" Lucky Star AMV]

4/20/23 10:43 i feel like my own personal insecurities make a lot of the people around me uncomfortable

4/20/23 01:54 i promised someone close to me i would take a break from web design today so no shrine stuff for now :(

4/20/23 01:51 before you know it this blog will get more philosophical and sad

4/19/23 19:16 flow state fukkin achieved

4/19/23 13:36 a gal like me needs 5 different blogs with different themes to feel whole

4/19/23 13:06 whenever i can i'm renovating this blog from the ground up. not vibing with it.

4/19/23 08:41 for those following me who have taken the time to fully immerse themselves in my webpage (maybe even leaving kind messages), i will take the time to do the same. i've been kind of tunnel-visioned by my own creativity. however, i do feel obligated to show respects as a patron of the web. i'll eventually have a space for buttons, too.

4/19/23 08:26 i'm a bit like if elon musk was a girlfailure instead of a nepotism baby

4/18/23 20:52 this website feels like it's expanding too slowly. sadly, i'm not an automaton and have real relationships to maintain. i'm hoping i can reenter my bi-weekly flow state and make some real progress soon.

4/18/23 15:19 I HATE MOBILE BROWSER OPTIMIZATION RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHHHH!

4/17/23 12:20 love is like a ripe plum: bittersweet.

4/16/23 14:23 i've been interested in the Mother games, recently. in North America (where i live), "Mother 2" is known as "Earthbound". i greatly prefer the name "Mother", as it better reflects the themes of the games. while "Earthbound" is somewhat iconic, the localization reminds me of how silly "Resident Evil" sounds compared to "Biohazard".

4/16/23 10:34 pretty uneventful week. met a friend and watched texas chainsaw massacre. i love the way films from that decade tend to be so literal and engaging. very beautifully shot. i can see why it's a classic.

4/10/23 13:10 my creative vision for this site is a series of pages, both chaotic and organized, seamlessly woven together. i'm having trouble prying my hands off of my keyboard. must keep working.

4/10/23 11:39 part of me wonders if this blog is too out of the way, or just enough. maybe implementing some sort of poll for visitors would help remedy my self-doubt in the future.

4/10/23 11:33 at the time of this post, the song playing on this page is "Dancing In The Sky" by Ryuichi Sakamoto. he passed a few days ago, only a few months after his dear friend and musical collaborator, Yukihiro Takashi. as a huge fan of their works, i was devastated. i've been listening to "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" often, as a result. That and "Forbidden Colors", because i really like David Sylvian and Japan.

Rest in peace, Mr. Sakamoto. Your music truly touched the hearts of several.

4/10/23 10:46 i've done it! i've finally breathed some life into this mediocre website! welcome to the blog. i'm using this to hyperfixate, vent and ruminate. making websites is hard, typing is easy and fun. i need coffee.
