why is it every time the weather suddenly turns warm I have the urge to read early 2000s chick lit/romance books

Finally read a letter from my insurance that I’ve been avoiding for a month and

a) they’re giving people a $25 gift card per vaccine shot (including kids, once under-16s are eligible)
b) they have a “queue” website that’ll let me know when there’s an available appointment

*\o/* This is GREAT because I haven’t been able to find an open appointment & I dreaded having to check multiple website every day. Maybe I’ll actually be able to get vaccinated before the summer!!

The individual Champions’ quests were really fun! It was nice to have more interactions with the NPCs, and getting the extra cutscenes. Plus, baby Sidon!

#BOTW : have been busy trying to find the DLC clothes and finishing up the Champions quests things. Super slow-going because I’m trying to not use walkthroughs— and my map isn’t filled out all the way, so some of the places I needed to get to were undiscovered.

Still, making progress! Found maybe 1/4 of the treasures and have gotten to the final monk battle in the quest, where I rage quit because he is TOO FAST

Have been playing Cozy Grove since it dropped last week and it’s pretty fun. But! It’s only meant to be played maybe 20 min a day and some quests take multiple days to complete...and I am impatient! So now my Switch is living about 5 days in the future while I try to help these depressing ghost bears by finding rare seashells

Twitter's doing a new thing with threaded tweets which is...kinda weird...

apparently the robot police dogs are supposed to be there for surveillance but...the faceless camera with legs and dangerous joints is just SO creepy

it's in response to this tweet about disabling ROBOT POLICE DOGS who have joints apparently designed to CRUSH FINGERS:

from the birdsite (too good not to share):
"Love this future I live in where I'm learning how to deactivate robot dogs from 21 year old furries while trapped in my house due to the pandemic that's killed 3mil people. It's exactly what I always wanted."

Thing to note: a lot of fandom servers are 18+ not because they're full of porn, but because they want to be designated as adults-only spaces.

So basically if you use an iPhone to access #Discord you won't be allowed to access NSFW channels or servers, even if you're over 18 and have already clicked on the "I acknowledge this server/channel is NSFW" thing.

I think probably the kink memes are on Discord servers now tbh

organizing my old fanfics has made me nostalgic for stupid things like fic headers, and also for not-stupid things like extremely active kink memes

the error is because AO3 is having server issues! Yay, I didn't break my program, woohoo!

anywho, I'm working on a big post (which I'll cross-post to my website) on how to create/maintain a personal fanfic library using Calibre + plugins (+ browser extensions). It's about halfway done...hopefully I'll be able to finish writing it by the end of next week? maybe? 🦄

I actually haven't been able to reread any Sherlock fic for YEARS because I was so pissed off at what the show/show writers did to the fandom :/

anyway, I'm also reminiscing about the early days of Sherlock fandom, which coincided with the transition from LJ to Tumblr/AO3

and which was REALLY FUN for a few years, until the show itself got fucky

I previously skipped over my massive Sherlock collection, so there's a LOT more fics to download/organize than I expected which is both exciting and also annoying

also now I keep getting a timing readout error on Calibre soooooo
