Fallout 4. Playing for the first time, and have done everything except for the main questline and DLCs. I started losing interest in playing, but I want to eventually get through the main story. Taking a break and playing some Rimworld before returning to the wasteland.

My phone is on silent 99% of the time, unless I’m expecting a call for something important. I miss most calls except for when I’m already looking at my phone, and honestly I rarely answer even if I see it. It works though. Most of it is spam. People close to me know I prefer texting.

My first thought was sourdough too, and making fermented foods in general. I wanted to get into making my own sourdough bread for a while, but every time I started researching I just gave up. A lot of recipes out there make it look so intimidating and honestly, most of the steps are just not necessary for a basic loaf. Been making simple bread in loaf pans for months now and loving it.

Same! The Mario and Duckhunt combo.

Loved this one as a kid. Definitely hits different as an adult, still love it though.

He is delightfully creepy… but that kind of describes the whole Majora’s Mask experience.

Great choice. I would suggest Majora’s Mask after!

Just got back into reading a few years ago. The highest number since I started keeping track again is 38. I’m at 28 for this year already, so I think I’m going to beat it!

I want to start making my own fermented pickles. Just started my first batch today! I’m expecting it to go poorly and be a learning experience. Best case scenario, they turn out well and I get pickles!

Can totally relate to the idea of not wanting to change to make my life seem more interesting to other people. I’m a quiet introvert with social anxiety, and I think a lot of my life I have felt like I had to put on a show in front of others to seem more interesting. Trying to get out of that habit and just accept the awkwardness when it happens. I have lots of hobbies, but people aren’t always interested in the same things and some don’t even see value in ways I like to spend my time. And that’s ok.

Not sure if any of this resonates with your situation, but I hope you have spaces where you feel you can be your genuine self. It’s not always easy.

Thanks!

Just started Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor. Enjoying it so far, about 15% in. I’ve been in a reading slump and DNF streak, and hoping this one might get me out of it.
