  • Pole Position. It was part of an Atari arcade pack on my Gameboy Advanced. I would press and hold the A button so hard that the letter would be imprinted on my thumb, but I could not pass the qualifying round despite my best attempts.

    As an adult, it suddenly hit me one day. I did not realize, as a kid, that I needed to change gears to go faster.

    So I tried it out in order to test my theory. The graphics barely showed up on the screen because the gba was like 15 years old or older at that point.

    Passed the qualifying race my first try just by gearing up.






  • It can definitely come in handy speaking on the phone in all sorts of situations.

    At a job once, I was on the phone with a customer and was spelling something or giving a string of letters (can’t remember what exactly), and I was having trouble thinking of good words to use. “D as in… duck” not realizing that could’ve sounded like B as in buck or T as in tuck. “F as in…” (don’t say fuck don’t say-) “fu… fun.” “V as in… Vin Diesel.”

    Customer was laughing, so I think it went well.



  • This is a bit messy looking, but these are my top five fav “genres” and my fav “artists” from each (genres in quotes because half of these aren’t exactly genres. Artists in quotes because one is not the artist but a sound the real artists use).

    Kawaii metal: Babymetal and Ladybaby

    Anime music: guess I’ll say Aimer because that’s probably the one artist with the most anime songs in my playlist (shoutout to Nier games soundtracks because they don’t fit in any of my other fav “genres”)

    Vocaloids and utauloids: Flower is my fav vocaloid - love how she sounds, love her designs, and it helps that she was made for j-rock/metal

    Vtubers/Hololive performers: Bae is bae

    Rock/metal: Avenged Sevenfold and Metallica
