I can barely bring myself to go through my old journals. Just 100% cringe. Sometimes I think about my nieces and nephews and feel so bad for them that they still have to figure out their whole lives. I mean I guess I do too but not like that. Very glad to be past that early adulthood stage of my life lol

I love the phrase "psychological archaeology" and the uncanny feeling of our past self seeming a little like a stranger. Sometimes I look back at my old journals and wonder who the hell that melodramatic person was haha. Everything felt SO BIG.

It's definitely hard not to reread them and think "omg what are you doing?" But I guess we only know better know because we didn't then!

I've made a shrine (kind of!) for Getdown Services. Also reworked my Tomodachi Life page a bit.

Honestly making the shrine was really fun and I might make some more. But also that might mean restructuring the website a little bit. idk, we'll figure it out!

You're so lucky to be a CD person for the new Olivia Rodrigo. Vinyl and cassettes got an earlier version of the album before she made some substantial changes and the experience is ruining it for me.

@distillation Oh I had no idea that was the case for other formats! I'm sorry, that's seriously rubbish. Seems like she should reissue it with the proper versions and let people exchange them or something.

Archery seems soo cool! I'd always wanted to but I don't think I like compound bows

Never tried compound, I've only ever shot recurve! I would like to try longbow some day but I don't think I'm strong enough yet

Thank you! It was a bit of a challenge making them but I just had to get them in there somehow

I used to do some archery and loved it. I also remember I used to forget which eye I needed to keep open and my arrows went everywhere but the target... Good luck on your 252 goal!

Hahaha I've totally done the eye thing before! I was switching between them every few shots as well so it was like... why are half my arrows going one way and half going the other? Maybe I just need to buy an eyepatch
