Likening customer service to purgatory is extreme but it feels like it some days so I'm working with the melodrama. For many reasons, I'm in a much better situation than most. Still, this line of work can't be my life forever. At least, when I leave, I can say that the way I view customer-facing workers has shifted drastically. For the better. Don't get me wrong, sometimes they suck, sometimes I myself will withhold help because I've been pissed off or I don't have the energy to attempt the…

I'm not a Fantano, don't call me that. That actually wounds me, you know. Deeply. Say sorry. Say it harder. Softer. Hm... Actually, I don't like this. This thing between you and I-- This is awkward and weird. Damn. Leave me alone actually. Slayyyter's latest album is my AOTY, which is wild because of how much heat there's been this year but a part of me kind of knew it. I put off listening to this album for so long because I knew it would consume me and it did. For all the synthesisers in the…

Don't panic, not a long post. I visit my university city every couple of months because I like the scene (whimsy) and I visited again today to catch up with a friend who's moving away for a Masters in a couple months. I won't air out our gossip 'cause it's none ya1 but the topic of location came up, which is something I've written about before. I'm Thai in my blood but I never felt a strong tether to my home country, I grew up in a home town that's almost suffocating in how I will always be…

AH-- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I've written a couple thousand words today and yesterday which, don't get me wrong, were really fun write-ups but if I'm going to commit to the trials and tribulations I have lined up for me (more writing, in the spirit of BlAugust) then I need to tone it back. Not only on a literal, word count scale but on a metaphysical level. I need my soul to rest. I'm too introspective. I put images in my last post, I haven't done that in a while! Have I gone mad? Do I have a…

You need to be a certain kind of beast to tackle the likes of NaNoRenO, Art Fight, game jams, even the 1 (sometimes themed) song of the day Instagram stories, and actually have a consistent portfolio to show for it-- I AM NOT that kind of beast. God knows I want it so bad. That routine. AH. DAMMIT. But hey, yeah, that's fine. I actually am just going to keep joining these repetitive challenges until it sticks because if there's something I love irregardless of the result, it's answering to a…

I'll be honest, the topic of this blog comes from a shame I feel in... Yearning for attention without knowing how to play it off in a way that still gives me what I want. Bit of a word salad there, hope you get what I mean. It's also worth me noting that I don't want to bog anyone down with the nuclear-level self-loathing I'll be exploring in this post. If you're participating in Blaugust, Augustory1 or are just a blogger yourself, don't let this post make you feel bad for actually enjoying the…

That's how it goes, isn't it? I wouldn't be too concerned by my departure from my comfort green (I do a crap enough job at overhauls, you might find a slither of grass between the concrete), nor my choice to let red (anger, blood, passion, grrr, and so on) stay. If I wanted this blog to perfectly match my other islands across the internet then I very well could but I wanted this place to be monotone. I think it makes sense for the kind of space I want to make it and red is what tethers me to…

I've been working on a letter to send to some friends, aesthetic PenPal style. They don't know it's happening. Beyond that, Fletcher and I have been trying to put together our I-130 package. We should've started a month ago given the lengthy processing times but it's just such a tall order and really requires us to scrape through some stuff to prove our marriage was bonafide. Gives me a headache. Games I've Been PlayingAnimal Crossing: New Horizons My friend wants to play with me sometime and…

Welcome to my bi-weekly digest for the 9th to the 22nd of April. House of Leaves... Is such an imposing book, which I suppose is the point. I started it a few weeks after I was gifted it for my birthday, fast forward by a few months and I'm now continuing it. No spoilers, obviously, but a footnote led me to a string of letters, and there was a decryption task that broke my heart near the end of it. Later on in the main book, there was a single symbol that wouldn't mean anything had I not read…

Sometimes, for whatever reason, a forum thread eventually becomes an image graveyard. I'm visiting a, I dunno, six year old Lemmasoft post to figure something out when the image examples are clearly not what they originally were, instead now just the image-host's placeholder image and maybe some consolidation text about the image being unavailable. "Fuck me," I guess, but I actually rarely get irritated by this phenomenon alone. Even now, I can't bring myself to hate it, which is weird because…
