Sep. 13th, 2022 12:53 pmSo as predicted, I missed a post yesterday. Oop. I’m not really sure why and I only realised I hadn’t just before I was heading up to bed. Ah well.
Sunday night I managed to watch Lower Decks, the newest two eps. I really love this show I think it’s my favourite of the new Trek series (although I’ve still not watched strange new worlds cause paramount+ is useless so I’m just gonna cancel it before the free month ends). It’s just so fun and funny and it’s nice to get references to the other series (these two featured Martok as well as a manifestation of Leah Brahms from TNG).
Yesterday I was gonna watch the newest Rings Of Power… but for some reason the Prime app wasn’t working. It just kept buffering and pausing during the recap and I wasn’t gonna watch the whole ep like that.
Instead I went on Dreamlight Valley and I’ve played… so much. I’ve unlocked the frozen realm, the pickaxe and shovel upgrades as well as meeting all the characters from Frozen. It’s definitely a huge time sync and if anyone likes Animal Crossing I’d definitely recommend it (bonus over that? The shops are open 24/7). It does make me wanna watch more films though (I’m adding Frozen 2 and the little mermaid to Moana on my to watch list cause of this).
Last night I also watched The Twilight Zone with the first eps of season 2. They were both… ok. I think the second one had a bit more potential but it ended kinda ebruptly (which was odd cause it could have been longer because it ended before the hour was over).
A vlog I watched last night has inspired me to do something so I might do a quick little thing before the main thing I’m hoping to finish.
Yesterday and this morning I decided to listen to who audios. Yesterday was Judoon in chains and this morning was harvest of the sycorax. Both were longer than the angels one (which surprised me a bit) and of the two I think the Judoon one was my favourite (and not just because of my fondness for Judoon). Thinking on it both had kinda similar things (as in corrupt corporate people in both). The Judoon one was a bit more meandering, but I think it worked and I did enjoy the Sycorax one, even though they’re not exactly my fav race and they weren’t particularly memorable (I’ve not seen the ep in… so long but they are things I remember but they’re not one of them).
I was checking Forbidden Planet today cause I was waiting on a comic from them… only to find out it had been cancelled without them telling me. The thing is it’s not cause it was out of stock or anything (I found the exact variant I’d ordered in stock) so it’s very strange.
Right now though everything is strange. It seems like everything is at a standstill. The government has seemingly enforced national mourning and it’s manifested itself in all kinds of odd ways. Self service checkouts are silent, doctors appointments (and surgeries, and maternity appointments) are cancelled, venues have cancelled performances, Xbox uk streams are stopped, Big finish sent an email…. Saying they weren’t sending emails. I know I’ve heard more but it’s just absurd.
There’s a Nintendo direct today, which is great! ….but we’re not even getting a livestream of it because of the mourning. And I just…. What? It’s so fucking… absurd. It’s like they want anything that could brings people joy in this time to be suppressed. (Either that or some things are just taking things too far.)
This morning was supposed to be the phone call that has already been put back three times… but there’s been nothing. BecUse it’s from a government department I’m just going to assume it’s been cancelled too. I’m not gonna chase it up, I’m too tired to and I’ve already chased it up every other damn time so I’m sick of it.
Ah well. In awhile there’s the last Fortnite quests for the season so I’ll do them and then watch the Nintendo things when they put the video up on YouTube (a full hour behind when it’s streamed, I could watch the us one but I know there’s differences).
I think I was gonna say something else but… it’s gone. Oop.
Tomorrow we’re taking Naryu for her jabs, so I’m hoping that weather stays ok cause it’s been so damn changeable.
