*inhale* Die monster. You don't belong in this world! It is not by my hand that I am once again given flesh. I was called here by humans who wished to pay me tribute. Tribute!?! You steal men's souls and make them your slaves! Perhaps the same could be said of all religions... Your words are as emp

I miss when the bots on this site were just "pussy in bio" and not constantly reposting shit so you see "Please give money to my very real family who is truly suffering I promise you guys". That shit feels extra gross and buries people/causes who are real and makes everyone trust real ones less.

The skies are orange and nostalgic. I grew up in central Oregon and this is just the color of summer to me because of the constant forest fires around there. At the same time, I HATE that all these are happening. The entire PNW is on fire and people are losing their homes. Shit is not good.

Dropout uploaded a bunch of Don Hertzfeldt videos and it got me to watch It's Such a Beautiful Day again. Been years since I've seen it. It's my favorite work of his. If you only know him as the "my spoon is too big" guy, you REALLY need to watch this one. It's sad and beautiful in a surreal way.

You can see the itomichi now! It is an odd feeling though. I like to keep my nails SUPER short for comfort reasons... but I kinda need this one.

I can't SEE it but I can FEEL the itomichi starting to take shape on my fingernail. Classical guitarists have long nails on their right hand, I get to have a notch in my left index fingernail. xD

'Tism'd at my new roommate while the poor dude is trying to like... get his room all moved in. Oops. Why am I like this? 🙃

Wellp. It's NOT good. It's not even 'okay'. But it's my first full week of learning and probably trying to play something harder than I should. XD I think it's important to share even 'bad' because I had never touched this instrument a week ago and couldn't even play a note accurately. Progress!

Hard mode is knowing what movie this is without knowing my personal tastes. I quote this movie all the time and I have yet to find more than 1 person who immediately knows what the hell I'm saying. XD

Film you've watched more than 6 times, with a gif. Hard Mode: No Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli. One of the best James Bond films and one of the best N64 games ever.

Me: Plays 60bpm, loud, angry, fuzz-saturated guitar riffs Also me: Learning funny little Japanese lute banjo thingy because hehe fun noises ペンペン uwu ....Get you a rat who does both................?

I've been listening to a lot of Hiromitsu Agatsuma since March. Nice and chill. I actually have the bunkafu (tab) for Kaze in one of the books I got. Some day it'll be in the realm of possibility for me to learn/play! www.youtube.com/watch?v=suBr...

"I'm indifferent to feet but I'd still thank her for stepping on me." Is somehow no longer the weirdest thing I've said today. I will not elaborate on what unhinged nightmare I just uttered.

I sure hope my housemates like hearing Choshi Awase over and over and over followed by mostly the first couple measures of Rokudan mostly butchered. :D

Been so long since I learned guitar that I kinda forgot how it feels to learn a totally new instrument... Spend like an entire hour just trying to play notes correctly, then try to apply that to the first 2 bars of a song... and then your hands hurt after.

Didn't manage to get any real practice in today. :< Shit is going on that should have nothing to do with me but I've been inexplicably wrapped up in all of it. I didn't ask for it but here I am. I'm unfortunately a half decent person (I think), so I have to remain involved. I need sleep.

Ooooh shit, Author and Punisher is playing here in September! Very much getting tickets for that. I dunno if any of my friends would be in to this one? XD

I want to show some discipline and respect for this instrument and its culture before I do stupid things like... I dunno... tune it to C san sagari and play Dopesmoker on it. Someday for laughs maybe. First I want to prove that I actually care about this and take it seriously (which I do).

Well... Consider this the start of a long term thread! (I'll get better pictures eventually) Doom metal guitarist learns shamisen. It's gonna be a long road. I suspect things will move at a decent pace given my experience with stringed instruments but it's still a different thing!

It's... only Tuesday? I'm already drained. Got nothin' left and still have to get through the rest of the week. D:

First game of Too Many Bones tonight! I'm REALLY enjoying this one so far.

Denshattack is so stupid and I love it.

I had a friend come to me for relationship venting/advice today... I think that's a sign they don't actually know me? Like dude, why me? I've dated 1 person in 13 years and things got unhealthy so I stopped. I don't have shit for you beyond "communicate, establish boundaries, and keep them." :V

Have you thought about small rodents lately? Well you can right now. It's free. Nothing is stopping you.

Well I know what I'm playing this weekend! :D

The instrument that was being built for me is done! Sounds like it should be ready to ship this week... Import is gonna suuuuuck. I'm thinking that I might change my mind and actually share the learning process and struggles. Might be more rewarding to document my own improvement. We'll see.

I REALLY need to start working on making some local friends with shared interests. I have basically stayed in my room and left to do something fun like once every other month (if I'm lucky) since I moved here. I finished school and I'm no longer dating anyone so I'm kinda out of excuses.

Nothing feels fun and I dunno what I wanna do. What a waste of a Friday night! D:

I went back because I wanted a visual of just how much my solo/co-op gaming hobby escalated.... Yeah. XD This isn't even all of it.

I feel like I'm in a constant cycle of thinking I can't possibly tetris my room further to fit more hobby stuff in... and then surprising myself by doing it. I think I'm ACTUALLY out of space now though. Added (another) shelf to hold (more) games.

I was about to post totally out of context lyrics to a 90's prog house song... and realized I'd look like some sort of broken bot if I did.
