playing chess again after a Long hiatus. (yes, i started during lockdown.) i think my spatial reasoning has improved in the hiatus because i'm finding it easier to visualise the capture areas of both my pieces and my opponent's. it's wild.

i have awakened. emika's first album is my current soundtrack. except 3 hours. i prefer hit me, which is an alternate version of the same song. hit me is fucking Raw. 3 hours is a bit too polished imo.

i'm enjoying the pitt s1 but i really wish they didn't stick cliffhangers at the very end of episodes. like, i understand that you want me to keep watching till i'm a shriveled husk, but i need sleep, man. i've gotten in the habit of pressing pause 1 minute from the end, for my pre-bed peace of mind

i lile eric rosen's chess streams. i attempt to understand chess, which i understand about as well as differentiation and integration in math, and his calm voice lulls me to sleep. good times.

HR isn't for the workers. it's for the one person at the top of the food chain. that's the human whose resources they're managing and protecting. not you.

when k.flay said 'i wanna wake up feelin like i've fuckin slept', i felt that. i feel like i've slept for 4 hours or so, which is an improvement on feeling like i've slept for zero, i think.

oh also i have played a Ridiculous amount of Don't Starve Together in the past week. it is a Ridiculously good game. i might even be enjoying it more than Oxygen Not Included! ONI is a little too technical for me, whereas DST has that open world survival crafting feel that i Adore.

listening to perverts (2025) by ethel cain again and i'm absolutely in awe at how she's created this sparse soundscape that's also evocative and chilling. i didn't know music could do that before this album. (i'm a lyrics person)
i am also still in disbelief that it's 2025. time is bullshit.

i know *sighs* i'm sorry i'm late to the hype, it's just, when a thing is super popular, a contrarian gremlin in my brain goes "no fuck u" and refuses to see for itself. it's a curse.
