#And discord and steam and minecraft is supposed to be supported

[pirefyrelight]

in my research for what the hell Linux is in an effort to switch to it, I've watched a few "What your distro says about you" knowing that they're only partly joking probably.

Anyway I'm waiting for "Mint: you're scared of the command line but you're more scared of windows recall"

Ok I’m a big dumb dumb and went almost a full week without updating yeehaw

Day 147 (Friday August 7th)

I patterned and sewed all the short pile face pieces for my fursuit

Day 148 (Saturday August 8th)

I spent a lot of time in my backyard after hearing my mom talk about her marital issues and how my dad is really emotionally abusive to her. Idk what I’m supposed to do about it other than pretend it isn’t happening 😗 ✌️ then my dad brought me Arby’s for dinner and we talked a little bit about nothing. I stared at him and really LOOKED at him, as if we were strangers meeting for the first time. He looks so old now, with deepening wrinkles and whiting hair. And I thought about how I don’t really know him, and how I couldn’t picture him doing all that shitty stuff to mom. I just don’t know how to feel. I didn’t mention it to him.

Day 149 (Sunday August 9th)

I finished furring my fur suit head (aside from the neck piece. The first time I traced out all my pattern pieces, I did them all backwards. Thankfully I noticed before cutting anything out, so I just retraced everything.

Day 150 🥳 (Monday August 10th)

I finished my suit! I tried a few different methods for the eyes, and ended using a plastic folder and some vinyl material off of a binder from church. I tried using a plastic storage container lid, but it was too difficult to cut through so I gave up. I had even brought it out to the backyard to clean it off with the hose, which felt almost nostalgic. Every time I use the hose, I remember a time when I was little and all the neighborhood kids were playing in my backyard. The hose was streatched across the yard so the end was at the top of the slide, making it a water slide that ended in a big puddle. I shouted over to the other kids something about twisting the wheel thing towards my house, since that’s where the party was. Anyway I finished my suit and happy stimmed like hell when I put it on, dancing around my room and jumping back and forth to tire myself out. I took a few pictures by myself while home alone. I haven’t shown it to my mom yet because I think she’ll poke fun. My dad is very supportive and my sister is neutral about it but it feels like she’s both impressed and judging me.

Day 151 (Tuesday August 11th)

I spent the whole day outside, and I saw a bunch of wierd bugs and a frog. I joined r/whatisthisbug and had the same professor dude answer all 3 of my questions.

The first one is a white marker tussocks moth caterpillar, and the other is a freshly molted wheel bug. I also submitted pictures of a freshly molted cicada I found a few days ago, and that post got 74 upvotes :) and that frog has been in the same spot every day I go back to check. He’s very cute and may stay as long as he pleases.

Sorry for the bad picture, but I also harvested some beans from the plants in my front yard. Very satisfying to play with.

My sister and I FaceTimed our brother Eric. I showed him my fursuit and he seemed impressed. Emily then gave me her old laptop, since mine is broken rn. I joined the stardew valley discord and played multiplayer for the first time! It was really fun. I also spent forever trying to get used to using a Mac. It’s still wierd lol. At night, I was on the computer just for the sake of being on the computer just because I was so starved. Also revisited furvilla, I like breeding mini pets and making bank selling supplies.

Day 152 (Wednesday August 12)

I played stardew valley literally ALL DAY. It was great, also the prettiest farm I’ve had yet. I tend to min/max pretty dang hard in that game, so it was nice to take it easy and lay down stone paths and make fences and let someone else influence my play style. Later at night, when the 2 other people I was playing with were busy, I really want to play stardew but I didn’t want to go back to my old saves or start a new one. The save data from my recent active farm didn’t transfer over, so I revisited my very first farm. I had quit that one because STV stopped working on my home computer and I had to stop for a long time. I couldn’t get back into the fast-paced endgame on that file, so I started a new one. I think steam broke on the home computer too, so I made 2 more when I got my brothers old laptop; one new main farm and one specifically for multiplayer. Then that laptop broke. Anyway sdv rant over. It’s really fun and I want to make my friend buy it since it’s on sale right now so we can play together. I also almost bought Minecraft, but Idk how often I would play it because I’m bad at video games.

Day 153 (Thursday August 13th)

Had a wierd morning I think? I had a dream about my dad dying of a heart attack while trying to look at the stars, and then telling him about my dream while still dreaming. Eventually my mom, sister and I drove to pick up groceries and I almost made my mom cry because I’m bad at driving and she always thinks I’m about to wreck the car. She screams all the goddam time at my every mistake, so I made emily drive us home, but she made me pick up smoothie king after a terrible time in the parking garage. I had to de-stress in the backyard for a while until I decided to take a shower and start on another fursuit. My mom has just given the dog a flea bath but didn’t rinse out the fleas and I was too grossed out and skipped the shower. I worked on the head for 4.5 hours excluding breaks, listening to drawfee the whole time. I made myself dinner with Mac n cheese n steamed broccoli. I want to sell the fur suit head I’m working on rn so I can buy more fur colors and maybe make a job out of it before I head off to college.
