Jul. 3rd, 2021 01:31 pmNo song Saturday today as I’m feeling a bit bleh still.
Yesterday ended up being ok, though I was still a bit unfocused. I did watch the new Bad Batch which was pretty good, ugh ugh the Empire. At least they didn’t start firing on civilians. And Alexander Siddig from DS9 did a voice which was pretty cool.
I’m still useless at Dead By Daylight. I tried being a killer for one of the daily things, but was so bad I had a message from someone saying I was. (Which was rude.) I did try the space jam game which was kinda fun but tricky. And I forgot how retro the Lego Star Wars game was.
I did manage to finish of the time and the rani special features last night, which had some interesting things. There’s also some which were annoying though.
I found out last night that Bob Bryar made a tweet…. and then was bombarded with harassment and deleted it. I really hate that the MCR fandom has decided that this is an acceptable way to behave. As much as I miss the good parts of the fandom it’s hearing things like that which remind me why I’ve essentially left it.
I put on the next Penumbra Podcast this morning, Dragon’s Den and damn, Juno is so grumpy even at a theme park. I’ll likely put part 2 on tomorrow.
I found out there’s a new Magic The Gathering set coming based on Dungeons and Dragons and it looks pretty cool. I’m tempted to get some but I’ve got no one to play it with. Boo.
Gonna snug, watch Murder On The Blackpool express and maybe watch a film tonight. Either the first of the Resident Evil or fear street.
There’s a fire in the ocean in the gulf if Mexico because a pipeline has broken and it looks… as insane as it sounds. When I saw it I was sure it was from a film something but no, it’s real.
Ending with the new Friday Five
1) What one event from your lifetime would you change if you could, and why?
Hmm there’s two main ways of answering this. If I can change anything it would be so nan didn’t have Alzheimer’s.
If it’s change in just things that I can control I would tell myself to completely avoid two people, who have both left lasting damage on me due to their presence.
2) If you could give one piece of advice to your younger self, what would it be and how old would your younger self be when they got it? Do you think your younger self would listen?
General advice, be careful who to trust. Specific advice, avoid the people mentioned above.
I’m not sure if my younger self would listen, I hope they would.
3) If you could have a conversation with the historical figure of your choosing, whom would you pick and why? What would you talk about? (You can't give them advice, though - they'll think it was all a very strange dream!)
Hmm an interesting question. I don’t think there’s a proper historical figure that comes to mind. Would Carrie Fisher count? Id wanna meet her she seemed like she was so fun.
4) There are many things that we've lost from the past -- how to make Roman concrete, countless episodes of Dr. Who, most of the plays about Oedipus, my favorite stuffed animal . . . . What one item or secret would you retrieve if you had the power to do so?
Ohh retrieving the last Doctor Who episodes would definitely be tempting. And now that’s all I can think of.
5) What would you like to say to people in the future?
I hope things are better then they are now. Don’t repeat out mistakes,
