I feel like I give strangers more compliments than people I play with regularly.

My thing in particular is that the ADHD makes me, well, you've played with me, you know I can be a lot, so I always want to know that I'm improving or at least that I wasn't *too* much. But I agree there should be more validation!

I've hit that point in Silksong where I know there's not much left and I don't want it to end but also in doing all these side things, I've fully lost momentum on the main plot too.

Sometimes I'll finish a ttrpg session and some part of me wants to ask, "Was I good today? Was I fun to play with?" Thankfully it is a very small part and I don't do it or actually need the reassurance, but the little voice is there.

I have to JUGGLE FLEAS? I love that this game expects its players to be the kinda nerd that learns to juggle and not the kind that like, does nothing physical outside of a game ever. I'll try I guess. But maybe not today. I need to remember to refill my flea brew before I leave though.

But then I remember a) I wanna do a playthrough for the simple ending and b) what's left is a bunch of bosses and I am awful at them so maybe not.

I've reached Act 3 in Silksong and gotten pretty far into it to the point that I don't think I have any map left to uncover (though there's a bit in the Sands of Sarak that I've not reached yet) and now I'm like... should I. Do other things. So it lasts longer.

What I am actually going to do is see if I can find some decent hangers that they won't fall off of so I can hang them instead of go through the truly excruciating process of folding them right.

There's a part of me that briefly considers numbering the buttons/buttonholes of my flannel shirts almost every time I wear one, because I always button them up wrong. Thankfully I usually only do up one or two buttons and check the length and fix it.

I haven't even put away my fan yet because I don't trust the weather one bit. But I did swap the long jeans to the front and the shorts to the back. (I still have dresses front and center.)

I miss Minted planners. Unfortunately, customs.

Kivrin E @kivrin.bsky.social · 11d

I really wish one of the times I'd considered and even sketched out my own planner I'd actually designed it. Maybe for 2027.

Checking out next year's Kokonote planners and wondering who thought it was a good idea to put the very weekly spread design I go out of my way to avoid into one of these. Like the cute cover doesn't make up for that? (It's not even that cute. None of these are.)
