this is probably my only quiet activity other than doomscrolling... i just like having me time. other than that, i think i'm going to try songwriting late at night moving into the new year, just something w/o a screen.

I love listening to some sort of vaporwave or frutiger aero youtube video while working but something about following along with someone completing their video game tasks has been cozy and comforting.

Firing up the switch when I'm alone, it's a great distraction. Focus on taking down that moblin

a nice little virtual way to have a goal, solve a set of problems, or enter another world. focusing in can dissipate bad thoughts and make your mind a clean slate by the end of a session. bonus points for difficult games bc they tend to really make the day fly by
games i like for these kinda days:
Unpacking - a game where you organize the contents of the main character's boxes into various houses she moves into throughout her life. very relaxing and pretty addicting
Cuphead - very difficult game but if you're looking to make a day pass, it's easy to spend hours on it throwing yourself at its bosses over and over
Celeste - another game that's as rewarding as it is difficult. could replay these levels forever probably
Pikmin 4 (or any of em) - another cozy option that gives you a great sense of accomplishment and lots of little goodies to collect
Peggle - a classic
Minecraft - another time-killing classic, especially if you plan out a nice big project

my biggest tip is to get thermal shirts that you can wear under everything. other than that, lets hit a thrift when we're back in town tg

top five band of all time for me. fuck it, top three probably. cant pick just one, here’s my list:
- the after life of the party (CUT IT LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE)
- from now on we are enemies (those chorus drums hit so hard)
- tell that mick (so fun on guitar)
- shipped gold standard (one of my favorite riffs ever)
- the take over the breaks over (see above and above)
- the patron saint of liars and fakes (WELL I STILL KNOW THE WAY TO MAKE YOUR MAKEUP RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN)
- kids aren’t alright / fourth of july (just makes me so nostalgic and reminds me of my best friends from high school)
- love from the other side (omg. when this dropped i almost fell to my knees listening on the way to class. those opening guitars hit me like a fucking WALL and while i didn’t love the rest of the album i was so hyped on new fob for the rest of that semester)
- disloyal order (BOYYYYYYCOTTTTTT LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEE)
- tiffany blews (whaddup lil wayne)
- 20 dollar nose bleed (so quirky so different, fuck brendon urie but this one is so fun)
- headfirst slide (the GROOVE)
- the music or the misery (ITS TRUE ROMANCE IS DEAD, I SHOT IT IN THE CHEST AND IN THE HEADDDDDDDDDD)
- ginasfs (lovelovelovelove)
- doldrums (the whole back half of IOH is just <33333333)
- cork tree (the entire thing. i think other than dookie this was my first favorite album and i fall more in love with it every day)
im definitely missing a dozen or so but idk it’s been ~10 years and i still haven’t grown out of them, love fob so so so so much i could talk about them 5ever <3
