There had to be an easier path through that.

I went into the kitchen to put the coffee on and grab food.

As I started to load the washing machine I realised the sink was too full to nicely fit the jug I use to fill the coffee maker, but only had my salad bowl and granita-making tools in it, which all only needed rinsing with water, not washing, so I opened the drying cupboard, and realised it was too full to fit either the salad bowl or the mixing bowl I used for granita, so I grabbed my previous salad bowl, intending to put it in the recycling

before realising I should just put on the coffee because the coffee will take longer than doing the dishes and eating combined, so I put the salad bowl back in the drying cupboard and moved the stuff in the sink out of the way enough to grab the jug and put the coffee maker on, and afterwards I took the chips I went to get in the first place and put them on the sidetable, emptied a full shelf off the drying cupboard, rinsed the salad bowl and the granita-making tools, wiped the counters

and then finally walked out with the plate of chips I took from the fridge earlier and as I write this I realised I never put the previous salad bowl in the recycling bin, and realising just how unnecessarily convoluted that whole process was in my head.

No wonder I'm tired all the goddamn time.

Worst hobby tbh

Honestly every time I start a new story, it's like I have to relearn writing like I've never done it before.

All that experience is there but I have no idea how to utilise it so getting started is always a massive climb up a massive hill of "how the fuck do I do this?"

>:(

The worst is when you

- have fandom ideas
- have had time to let them percolate
- have time to write them out

... and you're just. Not.

We don't need permission for this, self. Let's just do it already.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

(I might as well promote the stuff I'm watching since I am Watching A Lot All The Time)

(TBH I could get so much material just talking about the amount of YT I consume a day but I'm bad at getting my thoughts down as they're happening.)

I watched Thought Slime's video about how to YouTube> and it reminded me that oh hey, I had a video idea once upon a time, about gamefeel in the Sengoku Basara games, and while I'm no longer sure if I want to make the video (I'd probably get someone other than me to read it, at least, my voice dysphoria is very very bad these days) I would still be really interested in writing said video.

I guess this is a fertile time for the topic to come up too since Errant Signal recently did a video... not exactly criticising the concept but rather questioning what the practical value of gamefeel is in a critique, so I feel like I have something to actually add to the conversation, seeing as the thesis for this probably-not-actually-gonna-go-ahead project would be that gamefeel in Basara doesn't just create the feelgood feedback loop that makes musou games so satisfying.( Read more... )
