fuck ph*l sp*ctor's wall of sound all my homies hate ph*l sp*ctor's wall of sound (except you the walker brothers you can stay since your producer was not ph*l sp*ctor but johnny franz ripping off the sound and doing it better)

#i already hate phil spector for the everything about him and also really don't like the way the wall of sound well. sounds. LOL #but for some reason with the walker brothers that production formula works. also with early dusty springfield who was also produced by #johnny franz. which tracks. anyways. so often the wall of sound just sounds muddy af and combine that with sp*ctor's hatred of stereo mixes #it just ends up sounding like crap in mono in my humblest of opinions (i am saying this having purchased a mono walker brothers album #tonight which was an outlier for me given i almost always hate mono mixes on principle unless they're proven to be incredibly good—but even #ones that are deeply lauded like the pet sounds mono mix often end up sucking. anyways—but the walker brothers album is actually good LOL)

Today, fate has decided is the day that I try the olive oil coffee from starbys. Everything aligned: they were doing a BoGo (vital in case it turned out to be undrinkable; functionally this caffeinated olive oil voyage is free!) for this afternoon only, I have no local friends to share a drink with on a random Thursday afternoon, work is light so if the combination of olive oil, dairy, and coffee gives me the unholy squirts I don't have to attend hours of meetings while dealing with that, and most vital of all, I have a gift card to Starbys that I can't use to buy other stuff so I may as well use it to experience the undoubtedly unparalleled experience of olive oil in coffee, something that everyone wanted and has asked for.

So yeah, here's my review of Oleato: it does not taste like olive oil at all 🤔 I think I may try it hot next time to really give the olive oil a chance to shine*

#*or shimmer on top of a cup of overpriced coffee as it tears me apart inside #and since i can already hear some demon writing a concern troll anon: i have a gift card that someone purchased for me

getting into preordering cnovels and kpop albums really fucked with my brain i think, cause i'm watching penny stream her attempt at preordering this new dlc for ffxiv that just launched, and suffering while doing so because nothing is working, and i'm literally thinking while experiencing all that, "man i miss preordering stuff, i hope that svsss book 2 comes out soon"

#or just ordering really #buying #partaking in capitalism #isn't it fun isn't it's all we have left #(it's not) #but like MAN #wouldn't complain about making a fun little purchase that would bring me some goods... #still thinking about that little mushroom manhwa #been thinking FOR A MONTH NOW #i don't think they can sell it to me anymore kasdj #OHHHHH I FORGOR #i wanted to buy that itzy album that came on a cassette #cause i have a cassette player now!! #and i recorded a little playlist for myself on one blank cassette already #wanted to make more but i was distracted #ohhhhhhhhhh #chattering

i think i played sims 4 with my sister for six hours straight today?

#vixella + james turner's sale promo post convinced me #$33 dollars down the drain BUT it was for the two packs i'd most likely use anyway #we made ace attorney characters partly to captivate my sister's attention and also because it's funny as fuck #though i do have OCs in mind... yes it's 1:30 AM but i might just like... #write some more OCs. and watch more vixella :) i love her content sm #i also kind of wanted to figure out what sims traits my irl friends would have because i think it's funny #but i can't tell if that's the sort of thing i need to debrief them about #or to like never mention because who the fuck cares #ultimately i truly do not think any of them would give a shit but you know #(btw we got romantic garden stuff (free); city living ($16); and seasons ($16) + base game (free)) #both city living & seasons would ordinarily be $30-40 so... #we also want to circle back to grab cats & dogs (~$30-40; $16 on this sale but it's only 24 hr) #but i thought that city living was more strategic at the moment #+ i would in the long run LOVE to have growing together or parenthood... and parenthood runs cheaper in general... #but i already have spent a lot of money this semester :/ #mostly because Ooh Purchase Euphoria! and also because my college is located somewhere which. sigh. #has FAR higher prices than where i currently live #in a way that is truly horrifying but i do in fact go to college and need to get groceries somehow #so it's more of a desensitization thing because that does still need to occur #so like $33 dollars is very reasonable is my point

you never realize how hard it is to find a specific shade of blue for a suit until you go to find a specific shade of blue for a suit

#snap chats #i was supposed to go on a sunset walk but the organizer for the event was a no show ??? fuckin asshole #so i went home and decided to wear my mine cosplay for once #it was a cute result but how round my face is just kept bothering me. admittedly i didnt bother with makeup this time #just wanted to wear the shit for shits and giggles yk LMAO but then i remembered that anon bein like #'mate i woulda thunk ya'd do an aoki cosplay first' and so. i got curious and attempted to go looking #and my brothers in christ when i say. its so hard finding a suit EVEN CLOSE to his shade of blue. its nigh impossible #obviously i dont have plans to ACTUALLY purchase anything anytime soon. if i even fuckin found anythin but yk. Curious #his suit isn't perfectly cobalt or navy but its not explicitly teal- its in some. Dare I Say grey zone #of a SLIGHTLY TEAL prussian blue #ive checked both mens and womens and im just looking for the color im not even hunting for suit style #thats not even mentioning his tie's relatively unique too- HELL WHILE I WAS LOOKING I FOUND TIES SIMILAR TO SAWASHIROS #BEFORE I FOUND ONE ACCEPTABLE AS AOKI'S #at least i found one or two but my god... his outfit is so simple on paper but then you get int it and im gonna throw up #mine's easy-to-assemble outfit but incredibly unique face and hairline/cut vs aoki's simple face vs deceptively-difficult outfit #if my hair was longer and i bothered letting my facial hair grow out masato'd be easy as hell. already got that shit under lock and key lol #hate this house #ok im done being weird bout dressing up as middle aged men bye

Girl help I've acquired possibly yet another expensive hobby

#op #2 of them in fact #currently making a frame weaving loom (and by that i mean my dad idk enough about wood working and this wood is too expensive to fuck up) #and getting into mechanical keyboards #i already have a lotta yarn so the real costs rn are the keyboards #which are like at least 100usd a pop #what sucks is that they all seem to be 60% keyboards or tkl's and like. i need my fn and number pad keys pls and thx #debated sacrificing the num pad and getting a seperate one bc wowza these custom boards are absolutely gorgeous but #i am on such a budget and a cheap (cheap!!!) keyboard i found that i quite like is still gonna run me 200cad #if i got a pretty keeb and a seperate numpad i could easily be looking at $500+ like lordy #that's not even counting the switches i want to get (gateron baby kangs which are. $66. I'm assuming in usd bc it doesn't actually say) #anyway debating on whether or not i should order the keyboard now or wait till later cuz like is it even gonna be there later? #so much of this stuff is temporary and u never know #its a 96% keyboard and it has a calculator button!! only other board ive seen with that is my dads maybe 2005 wireless microsoft #so useful tbh #such a pretty board too all things considered #and finding a nice board like that with the numpad is not easy lemme tell ya like i was truly considering a ducky which. #i cant say im quite fond of their logo among other things #i think its more of a cream than white but u cant win em all #hmm to purchase now or to not purchase now‚ that is the question.... i could technically afford it but then #there's ComicCon + cost of supplies and whatnot for opening up my shop which is gonna be probably at least a hundred... #and then i would like to get some nice wool skirts for the winter/now bc pants are of the devil which is gonna be another 100/150 or so... #augh #i think the government should give me more money i think that would be very sexy of them to do #anyway can you believe i went on my phone to find a banana bread recipe then did all this instead? crazy #hashtag adhd life

Friendly reminder that it costs $0 to not buy a shitty, poorly-made, antisemitic game that directly funds transphobia!

#it is #in fact #free #I'm about to play an old Layton game that i haven't played in many years that i already own #and I'm going to enjoy it guilt-free knowing I'm not harming anyone by doing so #i do hope everyone who claims to be a trans/Jewish ally and plays the game feels deep shame and understands what they're doing is wrong #it's such a little thing to NOT do something #it baffles me how many ''allies'' choose to play it and even purchase it #like what is your allyship worth if it can't withstand being told to NOT BUY A VIDEO GAME #i know I'm not in any place of authority to say who is/is not an ally but tbh if you play the game I'm giving you the biggest side-eye ever #and i have seen many real trans and Jewish folks (the people harmed here) express this exact sentiment so I don't think I'm off-base #that's my stance and I'm not budging on it #some of y'all choose a few hours of glitchy ''fun'' over real people's lives and it's gross #ap #harry potter #hogwarts legacy #jk rowling

#speculation nation #LSKDJFLSDKFJSLDKFJ i bought a print from them already (currently my only trigun merch that has arrived yet) #and so i got a 10% off coupon for orders from their shop #which OBVIOUSLY means me buying a full trimax charms set AND a sketch zine #i love this person's art style and i LOVE these charms #last time i looked at them i wasnt done with trimax yet so i was a bit more ambivalent about it #hadnt officially met livio yet. now i love him. he is everything to me. #ANDDDDDDDDDDDD my dear trimax wolfwood and vash. much more in my heart than tristamp ones. Yeah. #theyre both preorders so im not getting these until august (AGHHH) but it's ok. it's worth it. im willing to wait. #still better than waiting until DECEMBERRRRRR for the trigun manga reprint lol. #yes i only got into this shit not even 2 months ago no it doesnt MATTERR #i can TELL it's gonna b a long haul interest bc a: it's all ive been able to think about for the past few months #and b: it got me to change my icon from orcelito for the first time in 7 years. that's a Big Deal. #anhways yea. excited. #i loooooove having some free money again. i love making objectively kind of stupid purchases. #just with the stipulation that im not supposed to buy anything else frivolous until my next paycheck lol #... i also did buy two stuffed turtles and also a tshirt from the zoo i went to yesterday. lol. #i need to post pics of them soon. ive just kinda kept them in my bag lol bc i was tired last night. #ooo i should post pics of the animals too. i got a sunburn. nice time outside !!

i'm gonna be honest... i have been getting GENUINELY upset at grocery prices lately. like i go to a store and i feel CRUSHED checking out with 4 days worth of food for 2 people for $80. it just feel like so much money falling into a black hole to never be seen again.

i'm not that good at meal planning but convenience foods are starting to rival restaurant prices, so why buy a $6 hoagie of 5 inches of dry ass bread with a meager handful of meat and cheese when it's not even a remotely pleasurable experience OR cheap. At least give me one of those.

i've always spent a good amount more at the grocery store than a super strict budget might allow because i don't like cooking very much and i don't want to spend mental energy fussing around with exact deals, but at this point, i have to download their stupid app and clip their stupid digital coupons to try to squeeze a few more items into my budget, and it just sucks, and i literally know the companies are price gouging, and now i have to give up my data to try to stay afloat.

it's just one more thing in life that makes me feel like i'm trapped in a car with a broken parking brake that's slowly rolling backwards into a freakin lake. it's impacting my HARMLESS LITTLE HOBBY of TRYING WEIRD FOODS because. at this point. who can spend the money to potentially not like what you get

#and genuinely. don't be like 'wait you guys were buying name brand before' meme or whatever at me because i will start biting #the reason why i had a slightly extravagant grocery budget is that it was very frequently my ONLY extravagance #i don't own a home i barely own a car i've spent most of my adulthood living with relatives while working full or nearly full time #i don't go out drinking i barely have vices i sometimes go for weeks w/o buying anything other than groceries and necessities (esp lately) #and if i didn't have SOME outlet then i would snap and start making fuck-it purchases that would break my budget even worse #i'm not squeezing my budget because i have two kids like my mom did at this age. i am in a household of 2 adults only #this was already such a measly little comfort and losing it is genuinely making me upset on a weekly basis

[un-pearable]

so was anyone going to warn me the garmadon comic is actually like. in comic stores. or was i really just supposed to find it in the sonic stack and lose my mind in aisle 2 like that

#so anyway i bought 1-4. RIGHT on top of where my store stocks the sonic comics. prophecy #literally the last thing i was expecting i already feel so embarrassed 90% of my purchases there are sonic but my guy knows i have bad taste #it’s chill. i’m dying internally this is hilarious #i skipped going last week bc i felt bad bc i’m not all DC all the time anymore and was considering dropping some of my pulls and then #BAM. garmadon. right there. with criminally good cover art. needless to say i left with twice as many comic books as i planned. #and half my pulls dropped #sorry mary marvel and teen justice. garmadon takes precedent #text✨ #ninjago

some pics from omegamart !!!!!

#☀️🌈🔥 #i don’t usually post stuff like this on here but i mentioned going so :] #i had so much fun i went 2 days in a row #i went to the convergence station last year #i am obsessed with these places they’re soooo fun #definitely want to go back at some point in the future this place was AMAZING!!!! #i bought a daikon friend too :) i already have a stain mover #i was blown away at how many of the products were actually real and purchaseable

[silveredsound]

i just really like this frock.

#i have an early entry ticket. which means i have to be there at 2.30. #which is basically paying for camping? #what part of me thought this purchase through? none. #i am going there at 1.30. i think some people are already there. #its so hot today and i want to wear platfrom sandles but that would be utterly stupid right? #also i was going to give out stickers so i could make line!friends and not be as nervous but i forgot them #so now i will just have to make friends by asking randoms if theyd like to hear my very correct hot takes #(narry is real alien!harry proof dossier ((that involves a PowerPoint)) louis and harry what really happened) #(nick and harry what really happened would harry being in Australia be the first time rob stringer pasy attention to this country despite #the utter mess that sony remains even with denis finally shafted) #i feel like this is why i don't have friends

do any of y'all use goodnotes and are being faced w the decision to upgrade to goodnotes 6 ?? i'm really on the fence about it -_- and if there are any other recs for pdf annotation / reading apps ... i would love if u slid them my way <3

#02 #im really only considering the one time purchase option (not the subscription one) because i hate subscription models #but the fact that the original app was like $7 for me and now they're making me pay so much more to use it is so insane #but it's so useful for taking notes and for holding all my PDFs and readings and i have like four years worth of notes on there already #i know thirty dollars may not be a huge ask either if you consider the long term use of this app but im trying to save money rn #im just pissed and indecisive BUT if any of y'all wanna weigh in i would love some more input

oh boy. so bonifacio's body is just. a liminal space, huh. the man got executed and immediately we started inventing things to put in the grave. there's a whole historical event that was straight up fabricated. what the fuck is happening here.

#good grief #unfortunately it looks like the 40USD and the 250USD and this other book that is thankfully just 23USD are all #.....necessary....................for shenanigans.......... #i feel some kind of ethical and moral obligation not to use his corpse as a puppet for spectacle and fuckery beyond what we've already #put it thru. #unfortunately i do not have. that much money to spend on things. i will put the 23USD book on my to buy list #and shelve the other (checks notes) two books and a tentative third for Books To Ask My Cousins To Purchase For Me #or Books To Buy The Next Time I Am In The Philippines

already have to wait a couple of weeks to play after release so that's enough tine to mourn the possibility of not being able to play at all.

#hob meets the minimum requirements LOL. #but. the minimum. outside of ssd which i'll have to acquire but yaknow. trying to decide if it's worth acquiring an external #if i'm gonna have to wait anyway. old man laptop suffering. #comforting that i've already paid for the game 'cause it would suck to buy it and then not be able to play #(... technically what ive done but i feel like the hundred some hours of ea i played was worth it even if i have to wait) #i am not gonna be able to use tumblr for fuckin. months. #it ran.... okay in ea. like not GREAT but it was playable #i do not have high hopes. #have purchased. the ssd.
