That said what else am I going to do while wondering if meds are going to make this possible migraine fuck off or give it the power of 100 bastard gods? Not like I can sleep.

Might try to not hate Ableton again at some point.

I don't like my odds.

1980s K-Mount lenses my beloved.

I've been awake for 21ish hours and my brain is still all AAAAAAAAAAA for some reason

As a total aside, the dsp56300 emulation project is magic and their JP8000 and Virus emulations may quite possibly actually be made of magic and pixie dust.

Also Nakst's Apricot and Extrabold have become Surge XT/Vital levels of, erm, vital.

All are multiplatform and free synths, too!

For instance:
Do I like this? I don't know.
Can I do anything with this? No idea.
What was I thinking when I made it? ...I called it 'blarglfnork'. Clearly I didn't have big plans.

The great thing about having my level of ADHD and ineptitude at file naming conventions is that whenever I need inspiration I can just dive into my renoise projects folder and pick something at random that may as well have been written by a different person and just plagiarise off myself.

I'm not obsessed or anything but all I'm saying is that there's a mere 248 days until I see Poets of the Fall, regardless of who's coming with me.

I missed Master Boot Record and The Birthday Massacre. I refused to fuck this one up too.

That said I'm tempted to start maybe streaming or making videos again or something solely as a creative outlet.

The writing/recording stuff every week thing is going okayish too. But I'm still not happy with anything enough to throw it into the wild yet.

BUT DOING THE MAKING IS HAPPENING. ING.

Currently in the throes of a sleep pattern reset attempt, so really quite fghjdkghdsfjkgs.

So tired I almost said yes to installing Valorant to shut a friend up but then remembered I'm not quite THAT stupid or self-loathing.

Am I easily distracted and mostly forgot bsky exists? Yes. But damnit I'm trying to keep myself accountable to myself.

So, characteristically late? This is my favourite photo of 2025. Not the flashiest or "best" from a year of gfjdkgls but it's the most 'me'. Collapsed and taking something apart.

All I'm saying is that Malory Archer and Emma Frost have never been seen in the same place at the same time.

Something to think about.

I'm going to try to make AT LEAST one track at least 1-2 minutes long every week next year.

No particular genre or style. Some will probably be very 90s FPS-y for a game that doesn't exist. Some will be far more industrial or ambient or metal.

Doesn't matter. I just need a framework.

What the fuck do you mean the collective noun for a group of bears isn't a flock?

Projectile vomiting stomach acid as a defense mechanism like a defective Xenomorph until the sun goes away.

Has it been long enough that we can finally admit that Dark Ocean Summoning is a better song in itself than the one with the silly dance (which was admittedly cool in context) now?

I was recently reminded that there are objectively two kinds of Zelda game:

Good Zelda games, and Zelda games where Link is right-handed.

I don't even just mean because they made Link inferior by putting the sword in the wrong hand. Even the Switch games? Perfectly competent games, shit Zeldas.

Recently got told I had the energy of a "scarily whimsical drukhari" whatever the fuck that manifests as

I've been laying in bed for something like an hour utterly consumed by the need to figure out why I can smell juniper and raspberry and why it smells so fucking amazing before realising HOLY SHIT IT'S MY HAIR.

Porygon is AI slop because Sylph Co. were too fucking lazy and cheap to go out and catch real pokemon.

Talentless hacks.

When I get a 3d printer, I'm 100% making a demon core lamp with a mode where the blue lights in the middle will get brighter the closer to closed it gets.

Is it possible to fight the cold?

Asking for a goddamn fool with cold hands.
October 26, 2025 at 8:12 PM
Personally I think Charlie and Leo should have had a sword fight to decide who's churchier.
October 23, 2025 at 6:31 PM
I really hope some AI scraper incorporates something I create or say or just happens to have me in it.

The colossal - nay, unfathomable - stupidity will be a memetic hazard. My legendary lack of competence will spread like an infection until it's unable to function in even the most basic of ways.

It just occurred to me that I can tell when I'm imploding because everybody compliments my makeup. I am seemingly incapable of looking good and feeling good at the same time.

Huh.
