There are three flies trapped in my window in my room. I would feel some remorse if it was maybe a bee or something that actually contributes to the environment, but flies are good for nothing besides being food to other animals and insects. So they're staying in there until they die. It might be a little cruel, but they've stopped appearing around here since October, so I'm not sure why they're here in the first place.
 
It's kinda weird to think that I literally grew up on adult cartoons as a kid and that I've been watching them way before the suggested age ratings. I first watched South Park as a baby, then The Simpsons at 4, Futurama at 5, Family Guy at 6, and Rick and Morty at 8... Good times. 😆

If only I was allowed to do this. Then I wouldn't have been the only innocent kid in 4th and 5th grade. Well, obviously not as early as when I was a baby, just in the grades I mentioned. I kind of hated being the only person that didn't understand all of the weird references people made.
 
Earlier this year, I said that the game I was working on will be published this fall. I decided to put it on hold due to how overwhelming it is as of now.
 
It's evening now, so the day isn't over, but autumn feels over for me now and I want to put my fish line up back on for a bit before getting my Christmas ones out. It is still November after all.
 
Time for a long post. If you’re not interested into reading it, I put it in a spoiler. If you are, you may click it.

Some of you may have played or at least heard of the PS2 game Neopets: The Darkest Faerie. To those who actually played the game, here is the first sign that the game is coming to an end:

When you first enter the Ancient Sewers under Meridell Village.

Here are the reasons why this marked the beginning of the end of a long PS2 game:
  1. At the very beginning of Act 3, Tormund and Roberta learn that the only way to defeat the Darkest Faerie is to find Fyora’s Rod, which is hidden in the Great Treasure Vault. To get into the Great Treasure Vault, you’ll have to go through the dungeons underneath Meridell. But the road to that from the research chapter is a long one, especially if you chose to do all those sidequests. Since you don’t have much left to do in Meridell or Brightvale after obtaining Fyora’s Rod, this part is very late in the third act. There are four acts in total, but the fourth one isn’t that long.
  2. The third act (Heroes United) is the longest act in the game. Aside to the sidequests and backtracking, you had to go to every village to break the purple clouds, which was longer and harder than normal. And to get into the dungeons, you had to go through multiple obstacles (starting with the broken Brightvale Bridge), which require freeing each village. Once you get that all done, that’s it! You’re almost finished.
  3. As previously mentioned, Fyora’s Rod was the artifact that defeated the Darkest Faerie. If you collect it, you know what I mean.
There are other signs that the game is coming to an end. Even if you’re unaware of a fourth act among the first playthrough, you would know that the game is almost over once you reach the end of the third act. Of course, the final dungeon before you face the Darkest Faerie is below the Hall of Heroes, which you don’t enter until awakening four of the heroes.

Have you ever encountered any moments where you feel the game is coming to an end, but you’re only 2/3 the way in?
 
To be honest, after being kicked from a collectibles-based server on Discord, I almost lost interest into collectibles, just like how I temporarily lost interest into the winter theme after that 2021 winter storm. But after all the pain I went through buying and selling collectibles on the TBT Marketplace, I’m not going to sell any of the current collectibles I own (except for the Sweetheart Egg, which I’m currently trying to sell). It took me a while to get these collectibles. I’m not going through that again.
 
saw that the Lunar Haze backdrop was updated but was very disappointed to see that it can't be purchased. I know some people see the backdrops as special and should be reserved for events only, and to an extent I agree, but I really enjoy seeing the backdrops on people's side profiles and I wish there were at least a few that are available year-round for people to buy.

also this is probably super petty but I really wish someone would sell me their ghost kitty collectible. really didn't think it would be this hard to find one, especially since the event for it just ended not that long ago and they don't seem to be selling for much.
 
In 2020, iirc, there was this really bad storm that made us lose power for three days, which isn't that much, but I was basically going insane. The mobile data wasn't very good, so on the second morning I literally just sat around doing nothing for three hours. There was no power to charge anything, so we had to use a generator, and by then I didn't realize you can unplug your Nintendo Switch charger from the TV and charge it in a normal socket, so I couldn't use it at all. The fridge wouldn't work so we had to throw everything in it out. And the air conditioning didn't work, so we had to sleep on an inflatable mattress in the living room, all of us, instead of sleeping in our own rooms. It was not a very fun experience.
 
If people don't want to live by a city, then why don't they move west and live there? Most Americans live in the East even though I think the East should be working towards being reserved for farming. It is common where I live to see people having signs in their yard about how they are opposed to a housing edition being built here or there even though they wouldn't be living near it and are technically not effected by it beyond more people driving around town... which shouldn't matter because we are a state that semis have to travel through to even reach the other side of the nation anyway. Surely there is something I am missing. Towns will die if they don't allow proper living areas to be built since older buildings are not suitable and aren't enough anyway.
 
I'm really proud of the Thanksgiving dinner I cooked yesterday. I was really worried about the turkey, as it wasn't entirely thawed before I put it in the roaster. It was still a lil froze (pro-tip: buy your turkey early!). But it ended up being really good, wasn't too dry, and reinforced my belief that butter can really save any meal.
 
Squirrels only for me for whatever the next animal crossing game is for the next Nintendo console, IF I decide to buy the next console, but ONLY if it has backwards compatability to get my beloved Sonic Forces and CTR:Nitro Fueled back from my brother so idk. Yes i'm the 1% who LIKES Sonic Forces. Everyone has their opinion.
