So first off, happy new year! I hope everyone had a fun and safe New Year’s Eve and that everyone has a good, better new year.
So this will be my intro post, replacing my current sunshine one. (Well current as I type this)
My name is Stuie, I’m 35 (though fuck I don’t feel like it) and I live in the uk. I’m currently a student with the Open University (which is a university that does distance learning) and my current course is about Earth sciences. I have depression and anxiety (and possibly autism but I’ve not been able to look into that cause… pandemic)
I’m a geek, I love Star Wars, Zelda, Doctor Who and all kinds of other stuff. Basically if it’s about space I’m into it. And I also love Pokemon and Animal Crossing. Recently I’ve also ended up being pulled into watching a bunch of streamers, mostly due to ending up being dragged into the DreamSMP which has sent me down a rabbit hole that I don’t think I’ll escape from.
I’m pretty friendly and I try to be nice to people (even though experience tells me that people are horrible which has given me issues).
I write fic and I post it all here, though I also post on ao3 although not as much. I used to write bandom stuff, but I’ve pretty much abandoned that due to how toxic the fandom has become. I’ve also posted a bunch of The Umbrella Academy stuff but for some reason the second season didn’t inspire me as much. So right now my head is filled with ideas of DreamSMP stuff so… oop.
What else do I post? Mostly other than fic it’s random nonsense. I do try and post every week on Saturdays with a thing called song Saturdays which is usually me posting one of more songs or music videos. Today’s one will probably be later but here’s the taglist if anyone is interested.
I also do posted about Doctor Who eps as I watch them so there’ll be one of Eve Of The Daleks either later or tomorrow. I also do them as I go through the collection blu rays and I’m currently watching the latest one which is season 17 (with the next ep being City Of Death).
If any of that sounds interesting, feel free to add because I’d love to make new connections and friends.
(I’m sure I’ve missed something but ah well)

So like I said I hope everyone had a nice New Years Eve. Mine was mostly spent bundled up and flitting through streams which included. Technoblade reaching 10 million subscribers (yay!), Quackity reaching 6 million (let’s go!), Tommyinnit doing a short stream that descended into chaos and ending in Natewantstobattle playing Jackbox.
I also watched Technoblade’s vid where he said he had cancer and it gave me feels. I knew he had (and only really heard of him after the fact) but it was still… but I’m so glad his treatment seems to be going well.
I ended up watching the new year stuff on bbc1 which included Years and Years which was pretty good. Olly’s hair looked… odd, but it was cool he wore a skirt thing and I’m sure it pissed off some idiots. The actual new year thing included some ABBA songs which, as always, makes me wanna watch Mamma Mia, which I might do sometime soon since it’s been awhile.
It’s sad that Betty White has died though. I’ve not watched much of her stuff but she was always great in what I saw. I think The Golden Girls is on Disney + and I’ve not seen it so I might give it a watch. Lake Placid is also on horror channel next week so I’ll be watching that too.
Today is gonna be spent checking out The Lost Symbol and then watching a bunch of stuff, including new Who, Bake Off and Taskmaster.
I also got my monthly Xbox credit from Xbox rewards and promptly used it to get the Dead By Daylight Resident Evil dlc from the sale so I’ve now got Leon on there! I’ll be so using him soon on it (and had to give him the pride charm)
***
I end with two questions (watch them come up as futures snowflake things).
First what is everyone looking forward to in 2022? Second is did anyone make New Years resolutions?
I’m looking forward to the two gigs I’ve got booked, Set It Off and Kill The Lights. Because Set It Off are so awesome and Maxx is amazing, but the gig has been put back…. So many times even before the pandemic (so much so it’s been renamed completely causa the new album, which I’m also super looking forward to) with Kill The Lights I’ve heard only a few of the songs, but had to get the ticket because Jay James dis their new bassist and I missed him so many.
I’m curious where the DreamSMP will go with its lore and I’m gonna try and catch up on the many many MANY things I’ve missed in it. (The prison break was the first thing of it I saw live and it was so exciting.) I’m also looking forward to Quackity’s uk vlog which is being posted tomorrow.
I’m curious about the new Star Wars stuff coming and still need to finish some of the recent stuff. Oops
And Breath Of The Wild 2 and Tunic is coming out this year, which I’m super excited about!
Plus I’m super excited to get the new Lego minecraft sets. I really want the new one with the axolotls, they’re so cute!
(I’m sure I’m missing something but those are the main things)
As for resolutions. I wanna game more. I wanna go through my watch lists of doom (I have so many things in my Netflix, prime and shudder lists to watch) and I have a bunch of books I need to read too. Oop.

I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO HAVING FINISHED MY TWATBASTARDING PHD (because that will be nice. So, so very nice...)

Date: 2022-01-01 03:13 pm (UTC)I'm looking forward to travel this year, but I'm not feeling optimistic with this whole pandemic never seeming to want to end.
So, my resolutions are similar to yours, catch up on all my lists of things to read/ watch/ listen to. It's gotten out of hand.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-01 05:38 pm (UTC)Good luck! I’ve not travelled very far and I think that won’t change this year. I think the furthest I’ll go is my nearest city for gigs and such
Yeah! They keep mounting! I used to be able to watch stuff or game at nights but I’ve been so drained these last months
