Regardless I will try to be a better person and get better for those still in my life. Sorry for the venting about it--even tho this ending of friendship happened in June/July, I'm still feeling the empty void since it was close childhood/high school friendships.

(--only people who weren't there feel bad for me, like my therapist)

(and I know the friends I still have here that you would all be kind and supportive of me-I just wish someone who had witnessed all that has happened over the last several years in this particular ex-friend group would have bc it makes me feel like maybe I'm delusional about what happened since--)

Perhaps it's bc I am a poor communicator, especially when emotional, which is what I am when I've been hurt... Or perhaps my pov is just that warped. Idk. I know I've done harm, I just wish I had had someone in the group who had my back or could at least not invalidate my feelings.

First ever clear of an ultimate calls for a new adventure plate \o/

In a way tho it does make the game less pressure because I'm not immediately aiming for a love interest 😅

I also found it odd that there are a decent number of heart events I've encountered so far that don't even include the farmer? I can't remember if that was as much a thing with Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon.

(I certainly share the blame for how things turned out, for reacting poorly and selfish behavior, but it sucks when you have people you thought were dear friends hurt you so bad and be unwilling to understand or reconcile...)

this past June was truly one of the worst points in my life, but playing Peak with my twin was one of the things that helped me start healing

I'm still not entirely ok, and probably won't be for a long time, but I am in such a better spot than I was in June. like holy cow

[To be fair to me I have never seen Austin Powers]

[I like this site bc you can preview the whole sets for plates]

Np! The biggest lanterns are from an ocean fishing achievement ("Adventurous Angling" is the name of the set, "On A Boat V" is the achievement); the smaller lanterns + plants are from some of the bicolor plates you can buy (ShB's Exarchic Dome + EW's Sharlayan Agora"); bottom border is Sylph's

This is my new one since I finally got enough potsherds for at least one of the PotD Adventure Plates!

He did eventually apologize but I know it won't be the last time this happens. I want to be happy to see his photography, and I know he doesn't extensively use it but even if he uses it to remove wires, I don't want to see it....
