I've been in a scary place lately. Little PSA here, guys: You never know who is or isn't on anxiety medication and you never know who is going to go super logic-jump crazy. XD So, when you take medication, be sure to get your blood work done, work with your doctors, ask what the risks are, and be sure to eat healthy. I'm doing fine, though, and I kinda came to a big life decision. Eventually, some day... I kinda want to adopt a kid. ^^; So, um. Thanks for listening when I needed it
So, drama happens a lot here in the blogs, and on this website in general. It happens, not too big a deal to me personally unless the staff feel the need to get involved. And even then, I'm always open to a little chit chat and a few apologies. So, why on the internet of all places do people feel the need to get so upset? Is it because we really are nasty people who hide behind anonymity? Is it because we are constantly at war and hate all semblance of peace out of our nature? No. My i
Alright. So. Drama happened. It happens. That's life. I stated in my previous entry that I wanted to use these blog entries to express my personal views on LGBT+ issues. So, what did I do wrong? I censored myself. While I personally do not identify with trans binary binary trans (I was told "the trans binary" can refer to the binary spectrum. The proper terminology is binary trans), I do still fit into the trans spectrum. While I personally think my identity is subjective, it is sti
Personally I like the aspect of a hardened character feeling cheated out of a normal life. I could relate to that on the level of my personal orientation and how it's viewed. Arguably being gay for me is linked to a personal loss in a way. (I am not saying it is this way for every gay person ever, every situation is different, and yes, there are LGBT+ people out there who could have always been comfortable with their orientation and I do not mean to imply otherwise. Tl;dr, please agree to di
So, I'm honestly not great at debates. I like picking the unpopular opinion and looking more into why people disagree in the first place. Call me crazy or a hypocrite or whatever, but I believe there are two sides to every story. No matter how prejudiced or biased I may be initially, my opinions tend to change with more information that I pick up. And, yeah, it's easy to write off that other group of people as being totally stupid for having opinions (and let's be honest, threats occurred o
So I've started playing this game again after... seven months, about. I'm still towards the beginning, but I'm liking things so far. I set Shiki to auto play while I destroy noise on the bottom screen. That seems to be working well so far, although pigs are still fleeing too quickly. I like the dynamic between Shiki and Neku. Also it's nice having an introverted protagonist. I think the game handles it well. Also grinding is actually fun in this game. Something about using the stylus to
So, a friend and I tried our luck at a few stores today. We didn't manage to get the Bob's Burgers comic that was out, but I did manage to find an Avatar The Last Airbender story featuring Ty Lee and Toph. And, like, I didn't know those two would get along that well. All in all, a fun afternoon. Now then, there are adult things I should attend to. Freelancer powers, activate! Away! Wooosh! ~Nigel
I have not been on board the Superhero craze at all lately. I even thought Guardians of the Galaxy was just okay. But I love a good antihero. And Daredevil is definitely a good antihero. Action, drama, shipping, ships that actually develop at a natural pace with the story, backstories, interesting characters, vigilante justice. The only thing this series doesn't have are cyan explosions shaped like cats. I'm hopeful on that front, though.
I honestly never wanted to be gay, and I certainly wasn’t keen on discovering I was nonbinary. I knew there was a stigma and I just wanted to be normal. I could have stayed totally closeted, but that wasn’t really sustainable. I’m out now, but instead of just cashing in on attention, I just want to represent myself properly to other people. I mean, crazy as it sounds, on some level it’s possible I’ve always been a regular human being with the same desires and dreams as anyone. Okay, so mayb
I am no longer calling them MOC-OC's. (Mock-Oh-see). I am now referring to them as MOCs (mocks) because it's easy enough and splitting hairs on what to call fan creations is pedantic. I still may call them MOC-OCs in my head and giggle at random. Feel free to judge, but just know I will not forget such an action. SMASHING! ~Nigel
Realized I hadn't done one of these in a while. So, yeah, literally any topic is on the table (within bzp rules of course). Just know that while my username is currently Nigel Thornberry, my actual understanding of zoology is rather limited. XP
Maybe it has to do with the fact I ranted last night, but for some reason my frustrations lead me to do fan stuff for Once. Regina (queen/mayor) and Emma. These two are gonna be best friends before this show is over. Emma is one of my favorite protags in a show. Regina is a fantastic character when the show knows what it's doing. Not loving where this season is headed so far, but I am liking Maleficent's backstory potential. So long as it's not another Neverland arc I think I'll be
The story likely takes place in a German setting due to the use of German words showing in the background. However the anime was created for a Japanese audience, so the protagonist's name is Ahiru (meaning duck). And then finally we have the English translation where her name is Duck, however her written name in the show (as seen on a letter) is still Ahiru. Three languages running around in a town where stories and reality intermingle. That's almost too perfect. ~Nigel
Well, today isn't exactly a great day in history. But hey, what day is? So, I just got back from an employee meeting for the place I work at as a baker. I've been informed that the baking position has been terminated. The staff had been working to redo the restaraunt, new menu, new managers, new employees, etc. And they put a co-worker that I got on well with to a management position, and this person has had years of experience in the food and beverage industry, so it's a good fit. I got
After watching the Oscars, I was in a mood to watch some movies yesterday (also, wow can Lady Gaga sing!). So, I spent like twenty minutes trying to figure out how to hook up our DVD player because the sound wasn't working, and then watched The LEGO movie and UP; two of my modern favorites. THIS WAS A BAD PLAN! So... many... feels... ;-; If I really hated myself I would have thrown The Fox and the Hound into the mix because the part where she abandons Todd in the nature reserve and r
Not really a "something creative" but I had some charcoal pencils I hadn't used yet, and I wanted to do something RWBY related. A sketch of Ruby seemed like the least I could do. Rest in peace, Monty.
