Time isn’t real nothing is real
Nov. 14th, 2023 11:30 amSo it’s been almost a week since the last post so it’s probably time for a new one.
On Thursday, as predicted, I ended up going to town with mum’s friends daysaver. I ended up getting two funkos from Game (a Horsea and Professor Huyang from Ahsoka) and a bunch of the new food from Iceland to try. I also posted one of the two packages, cause I still couldn’t find the one thing I was missing at the time. Eventually I did find it and the reason I couldn’t find it myself was mum had moved it somewhere I’d not have checked otherwise, ugh. So the second one is gonna be sent this week.
I meant to see Five Nights At Freddie’s on Friday, but ended up not because when I woke my stomach was funny. Ugh. I’m thinking it’s near the end of its run now, so it’s either see it this week or not at all. I think going to Cannock is definitely out because of the weather, so I’m gonna go to Birmingham (despite not wanting to be around people, because I feel I need get out of here). It might be tomorrow but we’ll see,
Friday was also the release of James’ album which is here on Spotify. I suspect it’ll end up being my second fav album of the year (after Sleep Token) which is the best compliment I can give an album really. I’ve ended up getting it three times because I have bad self control (the digital for the pre release tickets, but I’m frustrated that the files are formatted so oddly), the cd (cause I’d have preferred a physical one anyway and he only added it as an option later) and a vinyl because it came back in stock. So yeah, go listen! I think my fav no single is probably Denial, though saying that it does have a video now so I guess it is. I still need to watch that.
I also love whenever I play it on Spotify it immediately goes to Normal People Things.
That night I watched a Children In Need gaming thing, though I was a lil sad Tubbo and Seapeekay weren’t in it much, though at least Tubbo did get a lil interview towards the end. Seapeekay had mentioned he’d filmed some stuff on an earlier stream so I dunno if that’ll be up somewhere.
That night I ended up finishing watching the Enlightenment special features (poor Mark getting injured so badly during the wire work) and then I felt like watching something so I settled on Werewolves Within on Netflix.
I remember watching a trailer awhile back for it and thinking it looked good and the central concept is a good one. (A bunch of people in a small town are trapped and isolated there, but one of them is a werewolf.) It’s a good concept and I think it really could have been a great film if it used it well. The trouble is it kinda doesn’t know what its tone is. It ends up toeing the line between horror and comedy and not quite being either.
There’s also one scene just over midway through where it seems that that the werewolf attack is fake, which would have worked as a plot device… had there not been a werewolf attack about ten minutes before in front of those characters (where a guy loses his hand!) which couldn’t have been faked like that. The last quarter of the film kinda goes off the rails, which I’m not sure if that works for it or if it was a bit much.
This weekend I watched Hocus Pocus 2, which was better than I remember, and I got annoyed by the pad because the charger lead finally went on its las pt legs. I had a usb one I picked up awhile back, but that was shit and didn’t work so I had to order one (which thankfully does work great). Although now there’s another issue (which I’ll get to). So I had to hold the damaged lead at a certain angle to have it charging the weekend.
I did watch MCC which was Ranboo’s last which is kinda sad. I’ll miss watching Ranboo dressing up but at least he got to dodgebolt on his last one. My main worry is if making it his last was their decision or if their fan base pushed them into it, which wouldn’t be a surprise as their fan base is truly awful lately. Ugh.
That night after it I was lying on the sofa curled up and half watching something, when I heard the doorbell go off. I assumed at first it was from what I was watching but then went again. I looked outside and nothing was there no we don’t have a ring or anything with a motion sensor. After it went off a third time (this was at 1am), I checked that the doors were all locked and then went upstairs, hiding under the blankets. But ugh it was so creepy.
Sunday wasn’t too eventful, but yesterday I finally got back on Zelda. It’s been sucky that it’s took so long to finally get back to it, but now I’m exploring the Gerudo desert (and just got to the shelter in town). I’ll be honest, I saved it till last because I’m not too fond of the gerudo, but getting there it’s been suitably creepy and spooky that I’m intrigued. I might do some more after lunch.
We were meant to go to town yesterday, but now we’re going Thursday which is a bit annoying but ah well. Package will be sent then!
Yesterday there was an announcement for When We Were Young festival and it has Fall Out Boy, The Used and My Chemical Romance on the bill which feels like a fanfic and doesn’t feel real. I wonder if this means there’ll be new MCR music or if they’re like Funeral For A Friend, just touring. (And speaking of the latter I’m still curious about doing Slam Dunk but it feels like a pain unless someone else’s is going)
And I’m still annoyed that Waterparks is seemingly not doing a Europe tour for ‘years’ and the Birmingham gig is at that fucking horrendous venue. If it was anywhere else I’d go but I’ve no interest in passing out from the heat.
This morning I woke up and I’ve been annoyed, because the iPad is stuck in headphone mode and I don’t know why. it was working fine last night before I went to sleep, so I have no idea what the deal is. Why doesn’t it have a toggle to turn it off? So now if I wanna hear anything on it I need to use earphones until it sorts itself out or I find a fix. UGH.
Anyway, now I’m gonna have noms so here’s the things I wanna get done this week:
*Finish the fic I’m currently working on, which may end up being a two parter
*Actually make the Twitchcon post I’ve meant to do (though I’m sure I’ll have forgot half the things other than the pics)
*Watch The King’s Demons (and The Underwater Menace)
*More Zelda
*Start House Of Ashes
