boi do i miss that place. both in a "physical space" and in a "the ppl there" way. it was chill. i got to use big axes and saws and hammers and whatnots. idk, it was a cool place

so yeah i have to ask around if somebody remembers, because i got hit in the head a few times while i was falling and my memory is blurry i cant remember how tall that shit was exactly, i think it was 40m but i am not 100% sure right now

*confused gay noises*

okay so the ebook thing is way less terrible than i initially expected, so thats cool, but there are two things that i find very uncomfortable in it: one of them because autism, and the other not really

the first one, the "not-because-autism" one, is that im not sure how i am supposed to hold it. there is no comfortable way to grab it and hold it in front of me, the closest thing possible would be using my pinkie finger as anchor, but that is no bueno for the wrists and stuff, so im at a loss

the second one is that i am used to have two pages in front of me, not one. and between that and the different amount of words per page, its throwing me off. when i read a book, and i find an interesting word/phrase/part, im used to remember where it was, like "page whatever, upper left half of the right page" and all that. but now im trying to use the ebook to read a book that i have read in paper in the past, and im constantly finding things that my brain tells me that they should be on the upper right page but my eyes tell me that they are in the middle segment of the only page that i have in front of me, which i find terribly distracting. i can completely ignore the page number thing, but in my brain, the paragraphs are out of place, and i feel like it is gonna completely screw up with my ability to read and memorize things the more i use an ebook lol

and no im not a nerd who has infallible photographic memory, i dont memorize all pages, just the things i find interesting, and i usually forget most of them in just a few years. i know that there are extra-smart ppl out there in this world but i am not one of them


right now im using the thing to read mostly books that i "know", because that seemed like an easier way to adapt my brain, "unfamiliar presentation but familiar content", but eventually if this works out i might try to get me some nice textbooks in this thing, because i just cant get myself to read pdfs in a normal screen, and i've had some downloaded for years that i want to read someday. i dont have a clue if getting textbook pdfs in this thing will even be technically possible yet lol

this is still one of my favorite gifs of all the internet. i first saw it years ago when a fren sent me a very low res version of it, and i was shocked lol

I'm glad you're doing that. I, too am a large fan of plushies :3

I even am a plushie!

the only reason i havent asked for a goat yet is the legal name shenanigans, and once that is finally over, i will celebrate it with a goat
