#multiple months early

[retro-stars]

I just remembered a Tumblr post I saw about two weeks or so after “For the Future” came out that was basically:

“Hunter got scarring over where the goop was bc belos was physically consuming his flesh, and Raine has goop where their earing is” and then had a drawing of Raine and Eda with that had Raine just staring at their earing going “He unpierced my ear!” and Eda standing next to them with a piercing gun.

#i wanna find it #partially because it was funny #Mostly to congratulate them on getting the whole Raine loses their earring thing right in watching and dreaming #multiple months early #raine whispers #eda clawthorne #the owl house #toh #watching and dreaming #Lost post

#pepper.txt #anyway i almost wished multiple friends who also have the same birthday as him a hbd forgetting that its april not may right now #very glad i did not do it a month early

[serkonans]

so frustrated bc I need to break up w my personal trainer fr But he's experienced w helping people recover from injury and I want him to coach me through getting back into lifting after top surgery

#oisín.txt #oisín.n #i don't even have a surgery date yet tho. they haven't called to let me know if there's any openings #i saw my trainer for the first time in like 5 months on the 3rd bc his schedule had literally allowed no overlap w mine #and i was billed out for a bunch of sessions i couldn't schedule and he kept forgetting to update my workout routine like #just to extend the workout for extra days in the app so i could track it. not even add anything like I'd send him multiple msgs like #hey zach can you schedule some more workouts. and he'd be like oh yeah sure and then not do it #and then left me on read when i asked about afternoon availability until After I'd paused my membership and then he was super apologetic. #anyway i finally came back bc i wanted to prep for surgery better #and today was my second session back and he literally canceled on me ten min before the session when I'd already taken off work #and walked there. which. thank god i was able to leave work early instead of lyfting bc if i'd put $40 on my credit card #for no fucking reason i'd have lost my entire mind #he did refund the session and credit me for a free one but i know it's just bc he doesn't want me to immediately dump him again but. #zach. buddy.

I got 7 reactions to the post I made on this app 8 whole days ago (when most ppl in my area got 2 or 3 at the most). & Several messages I haven't responded to. Tbh I haven't bothered since that first day, bc I got what I wanted out of it (decided to try a hookup and accomplished it 3 days after deciding it), and...

We've still been texting. Sometimes about things that aren't exactly typical of what you'd think for a hookup (emotionally intimate, I guess?). Today we got on the topic of hiking and I mentioned my fav state park & she said she was planning to go there over spring break and said she'd love to bring me with her... which That is a level of accepting me in her life that I think is not typical of just a one-off hookup kinda thing.

So like... idk if we r skirting around the possibility of a relationship?? Or if we r setting up to be friends with benefits?? Would it be exclusive??? Open??? Assuming there's any kind of relationship at all??????

Idk. It feels like there's Something there. I don't know what she wants out of it. I kinda don't even know what I want out of it. But it'd feel a little weird to pursue smth else when we're in this nebulous area... it wouldn't be cheating bc it's not like we're dating, but I'd also hate it if we Did end up dating (exclusively) and then I'd have to give up someone else........

Idk. I wasn't expecting to hit it off with someone like this. I'm still pretty burnt out on serious romance, so I don't want to just jump right into a new thing. I just know that I like talking with her and I'll probably want to sleep with her again. Beyond that...

I dont know. It's all so confusing.

#speculation nation #i think im bigtime failing at the whole Casual aspect of it 😂 #but i cant help being so alluring.... the girls Love a sweet nerd with a mysterious hidden darkness..... #might be why i have so many reactions too. i am for serious my post has over twice as many reactions as anyone else #idk. i have options. for now im just leaving them open. #it's only been a week now since we started chatting. still way too early to decide anything. #i will simply play it by ear. see where things take me. #we have. we have a spotify playlist. for sharing our favorite songs together. we are sharing music. #i feel like im going insane. this cant be the normal Just Casual kinda thing can it??? #not when shes said at multiple points that im 'the coolest person ever' or that im really kind #oh god am i turning into one of those useless lesbian tropes???? #'help this girl keeps saying im really cool and that she wants to go hiking with me and we are sharing music together #and also we had sex. do you think she likes me?' #fbkdfkshfkshdjd it sounds so FUNNY laid out like that. but the sex rly is just incidental and all ykno? #i dont know how many hookups shes actually had. i dont know how special i am to her #emotionally Or sexually. and i feel like asking would be rude. #so i am simply waiting it out. seeing where it goes. and being pleasantly surprised anytime it goes well. #the thing with the hiking today made me all 😳😳😳😳 bc it spoke of a desire to have me in her life several months from now #it's only been a week. it's only been a week. i have no idea what im doing.

I used to humble-brag that I can spend over eight consecutive hours writing and forget to eat.

"That's really cool," said many people in the United States.

I felt good about this, so one day, I decided to impress my brand new therapist.

#the early months of therapy were great fun #especially because my therapist also has #adhd #hyperfocus: the one brain thing i appreciate most #on the other hand #when i got into stardew valley #it was almost physically painful to stop playing #especially since i was on vacation at the time and actually had multiple consecutive hours to commit #this is why i hardly play video games #i will end up one of Those Cautionary Tales #i texted my sister a line of thoughts once and she responded #'this has been a fascinating dive into the way your thoughts work' #anyway off to write #for fewer than eight hours probably #it's always difficult to tell really #sometimes i don't write all day and then i start at six and then it's two in the morning #i'll last as long as the pringles do

Kaeya and Albedo both have a knack for vocal mimicry, though Kaeya is personally far better at mimicking people, animals, and Abyssal creatures, while Albedo can mimic the sound of damn near anything with such startling accuracy, Kaeya sometimes will try and bribe him to come along and terrify the crap out of people-

#hc; kaeya #hc; albedo #//Kae tends to get down any mimicking faster than Bedo does; his subjects considered #//Has a knack for nailing down tone and speech patterns with a little listening #//He still likes to take his time learning more though; likes to be thorough. impromptu mimics are for creatures/in a pinch mostly #//Bedo is much more finicky #//And can deffo project his voice much louder than Kae can #//Once Kae got him to mimic Dvalin’s roar and nearly scared the crap outta a slew of knights #//For SOME REASON; Bedo’s team got extra funding that month #//Kae sometimes uses his knack for mimicry to hear Crepus’ voice again #//Bc he doesn’t want to forget it; so he’ll speak to himself in the man’s voice. esp when upset #//Unfortunately; he’s not quite sure he still has it down accurately enough; esp so long after his passing #//The realization he really WAS forgetting Crepus’ voice did NOT sit well with him #//Tends to speak in Crepus’ voice a LOT when he’s delirious bc badly injured or from fever when he’s sick #//Kae has spooked the SHIT out of the church staff as a result on multiple occasions #//Albedo’s actually the one who can still mimic Crepus with uncanny accuracy #//Bc he heard Kae use the voice early on when he still remembered it just as well #//Has yet to use it; but he’s saving it in case Kae needs it #//Not that Kae would ask just ANY time #//I also like to think Kae mimicked Crepus’ voice when he went after Eroch. to drive the man a lil bit paranoid before he confronted him #//Just a lil psychological warfare to make sure the man SUFFERED every bit more for what he did #//And would use on each subsequent person he found having been in league with Eroch too; for good measure

i got a little bit of inspirational stuff for y’all lol.

just because you started off on the wrong foot does not mean you can’t fix your step.

#i’m gonna bring my personal life into this when i say #when i forgot got my job #i started off on the wrong foot. #i was sick multiple times in the first month of working there and called in sick 3 times. #i also left 4 hours early once because i was sick. #it looked really really bad #because it looked like i was constantly calling in just to skip. #i also made many mistakes which nobody else seemed to make. #and i felt horrible. #i could tell i was annoying people and i was one of those ‘call in just to skip’ people. even though i wasn’t. #but then i was able to regain my step. #i now have a good rep with both the main supervisor and our (old supervisor) new manager. #they almost never send me home early because they like me. #i’ve been told on various occasions i’m a hard worker. #or a good worker. #the supervisor especially has actually been happy when she finds out i’m in working at the same time as her. #i haven’t called in sick since mid october. #so guys; just because you start off poorly doesn’t mean you can’t get yourself on the right track. #you just have to try. #love u all <3 #abi rambles #inspiration #inspirational abi #inspirational quotes #inspirational

the oracle of seasons manga is also a step up from the oot manga, but not as good as four swords. it’s... average? granted i never played oracle of seasons (or ages) and it’s not bad but it’s not great, either. it doesn’t really do anything wrong but as far as i can tell nothing they do or add to the story is all that great. the only exception is the stuff with link joining the performers; that was actually an interesting section of the manga.

#salty talks #bitching about the loz manga #so uh. new totk trailer. ok. #my feelings these past few months have been friendship ended with botw elden ring is my new best friend #anyways i think in the early loz manga the female characters are uh. not great? unless theyre impa #im gay but din is hot and shes also good #link being in love with her as one of his big motivations is. sure. fine. whatever #why was piyoko vaguely in love with link #probably my stupidest complaint about these books (except fs lmao) is that theyre so. not queer #does that make sense? they lean very heavily into girls liking link and link liking some other girl and its very. heteronormative? #maybe thats just me. maybe thats be being a lil pissy abt the manga sheik thing and some other stupid shit #also this one leaning very heavily into link having to lay down and accept his destiny of being a hero despite not initially wanting it #like they make it a whole thing in the beginning and then he just. accepts it. #sidenote to the totk thing my loss of interest is probably due to the fucking vicegrip chokehold my phantom hourglass special interest #has on me #small life update a few months ago i DID get a copy of the phantom hourglass official guide book and i love it dearly #totk fills me with dread for multiple reasons and i think ill avoid it for a bit after it releases to see what others think #anyways. oracle of seasons. sorry to bog this down with non manga opinions. but its ok. not too interesting. standard #my guess is that oot and mm are going to be the worst of the bunch

honestly the cruelest thing abt the newest doctor who episode is that they’re saying it’ll take a whole year for the next episode 💔

#shut up danni #i was crying like a baby #but also spoilers for the rest of the tags #doctor who spoilers #we were ROBBED of seeing tennant in thirteen's outfit #don't make him change her clothes w the regeneration!!!!!! #we were blessed to see master in thirteen's clothes i've been WAITING to see the next doctor in thirteen's bright fun outfit #but alas #i guess we'll skip that 😢 #like obviously i know that its gonna be good and they're being vague abt the release date to give them more time #but still!!!! it's hard knowing it could literally be a year and not like early 2023 or mid 2023 #2023 still doesn't feel like a real year and yet here we are!!! it's only two months away!!! #i still struggle remembering that it's 2022 #but anyways it was good!!!!! #i love love love when finales have multiple companions brought back because they're always amazing #and the support group at the end???? seeing ian being like ??? did you say??? SHE????? #im gonna need a break down of the rest of the companions tho bc i am not all that super familiar w classic who rip #my classic who marathon got stopped as the missing episodes started to ramp up #legit sometimes watching them made me think that the only reason i'd want an actual time machine irl would be to retrieve missing episodes #doctor who you're not meant to make time travel actually necessary to watch your show that's the whole point #YOU have the time machine so we don't have to #*sighs* #but i also love when the companions learn how to fly the tardis through being around the doctor and them trusting them with her #god i think i'd just love more exploration of the tardis as a sentient being that just adores her doctor #that's what's always fascinated me abt it and why i always go feral when they have moments where the doctor talks to her

Oh look I knitted like half a sweater

Okay so amongst my mom’s knitting projects there were a few unfinished sweaters, including this off-white sweater. She had knit most of the torso piece (in the round) and had started working on the sleeves, but unfortunately the sleeves had partially fallen off the needles and had started unravelling.

For a long time I didn’t know what to do with this unfinished sweater. I didn’t really like the color, I don’t really enjoy knitting, and I’ve never knitted a sweater, so I wouldn’t even know how to finish this project even if I wanted to. But also... I didn’t want to just frog it, it was my mom’s project, a lot of time and effort had gone into it. I felt bad just thinking of unravelling it entirely.

So I sat on it for a long time, and I ended up taking yarn from this project to make a blanket. I took some balls of unused yarn, but I also unravelled what remained of the sleeves (rolling them into balls), and because I didn’t have quite enough yarn to finish the blanket otherwise, I unraveled a few rows from the torso until I had enough to finish the blanket.

With that project done, I was left with most of the torso and no idea what to do with it. Skip about 7 months into the future and I finally decided to pick this project up and try to figure out what to do with it (after having done a few tiny knitting projects).

As I mentioned before, I didn’t really like the off-white color of the sweater and I knew that I would never wear it if I finished it in that color, so (even if I hadn’t used up the rest of this yarn for the blanket) I had to get more yarn so I could finish the sweater. They no longer make this recycled-denim yarn, so I did have to go for a different yarn entirely, so there is a slight difference between texture and the size, but... I don’t mind it. Aside from black just being my favorite color, I think the extreme intentional contrast between the yarns works kind of nicely, since you can VERY CLEARLY see which part of the sweater was made by my mom and what I knit.

Now fortunately for me mom had done most of the knitting here, so all I had to do really was knit the sleeves and just a little bit on the torso before figuring out the arm+neck holes (and then finally doing a collar). And fortunately for me, the sleeves were super easy to do, as was the collar, and the first few rounds of black on the torso

But god, the neck hole. And the arm holes. That’s where everything went wrong

(Disclaimer: I have no fucking clue how to read knitting instructions. I would not have been able to look up any knitting tutorials on how to make a sweater to help me, I can not wrap my head around those things for the life of me, and I’m too lazy to learn)

So, first attempt I knitted a few rows and decided I would “split” the torso into a front and back part to knit the top of the sweater like this

Then all I’d have to do was connect the shoulder straps and attach the sleeves before doing a collar and I’d be done! But then... I started thinking... Remembering the sweater I crocheted last year, and how absolutely massive it turned out.

I got worried that if I tried to use what was essentially the same technique on this sweater, it would end up looking weird. So I consulted YouTube and came to the conclusion that I needed to do some shaping and make like a U shaped hole for the arms (instead of just splitting the round knit into two sides like I had done). Which meant I had to unravel quite a few rows on both sides of the sweater. And this was kind of a struggle

Like I tried to look up tutorials on how to unravel, I tried to do it the safe way by putting a knitting needle through the knit material and like pick up the row where I wanted to restart, but my yarn was quite tight so I couldn’t get my needed to go through for the life of me. I ended up having to pick up the row with a sewing needle and yarn, and while I managed to unravel safely, getting the shit back onto knitting needles just... It did not want to work out, it didn’t want to go back on the needles, the loops were so tight. I did manage to do it in the end, after hours of struggling, but there is a very obvious line going across the sweater now where I restarted the knitting. So that sucks

But that wasn’t the worst part yet, oh no, it was the neck hole.

So I redid the arm holes, this time shaping them in the hopes the sweater won’t look like a tent on me. And as I knitted upwards I started binding off etc to make a hole for a head to fit through. And during all this, because I had no idea what I was doing, I did cut my yarn many a time while knitting and purling from one direction to another, slowly making that U shaped hole as I made the straps.

And then came the time for me to check if the straps were long enough they’d go over my shoulders comfortably. And they didn’t, I had to make them longer. Which would’ve been fine, but that meant I’d also be lowering the already-accidentally-way-too-low neckline.

But, because of the fucked up method I had used to make the neckline... I mean in theory I could unravel it, but it’d be so much fucking effort to try to fix that... I gave up. I let it go. I made the straps long enough so they wouldn’t pinch my shoulders, and knit them together. Finished the sleeves and connected them to the torso.

Time to try to fix that neckline.

Now, in hindsight, what I should’ve done was to just do the whole thing in ribbing entirely, since from the start I had the plan to just make the biggest collar I possibly could using up all the remaining yarn I had left. But being a dumbass, I thought it’d be a good idea for me to try to knit a few rounds around the neckline normally to try to make the neckhole smaller. And, well I did do that, but it looks like ass with the knitting going in the wrong direction for 2/3rds of the neckhole, and my weird fucking attempt at decreasing (I really should’ve looked up how to decrease properly, dumbass) causing these very obvious holes to appear in a few spots.

So it looks like ass. I should’ve just done the whole thing in ribbing. I should’ve unraveled the neck before getting too deep into it. But I didn’t and now I have to live with the concequences of my actions.

Anyway, using up literally the rest of my yarn, I indeed made a massive collar, the idea being that depending on my mood I can either weird it loose and tall or fold it over (inside or outside; it looks better folded in, since it hides the bind off at the top, but also, folded outside it an kind of cover up the neckline issues a little bit).

I can say this was a big learning experience. I did learn a lot from my mistakes. I don’t think I’ll ever knit a sweater ever again. I just don’t enjoy knitting that much, I prefer crochet. But I finished that sweater my mom never did, and while it looks like ass... I dunno, I feel good about it being completed. (And it’s fine if it looks like ass I’d never wear it outside the house anyways lmao)

#Yarncraft Diary #diy #knitting #For the record I have been working on a really big crochet blanket since like early summer #I've been just stuck because the yarn I've been using has been out of stock for MONTHS #And I very specifically want to use the same yarn for it #I don't like having multiple ongoing projects at once (per medium) but since I can't finish that blanket until the yarn comes back #I had to think of something else to do lest I lose my mind #Hence I picked up this sweater #IDK I got into the habit of crocheting (or knitting) for like an hour or two every day after dinner before I'd start working #And now if I don't get to crochet I go bananas #I need to do something with my hands to relax aaaaaaa #Mine
