The hypothetical equivalent to a journal from the old journal section
There are various things I can say and believe it or not I'm going to try to not be too remorseful for an unceremonius first entry
Making gijinka versions of a crowd of animals in shelters, being experimented upon or in a slaughterhouse will make you very sad.

When it comes to 'prospective big purchases' something I have in mind is a modded Wii console with a library of either Gamecube or N64 titles. I have this in mind, esp. the former since I made the mistake of establishing an online connection while plugged into the Gamecube title holding drive not knowing that it'd wipe out everything I had on it >_< .
=_= >_< .......................................ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuu........on the ~14th at a bit past 8, the game console I ordered arrived apparently at my old residence.
I await word from my siblings come morning as to whether my package arrived or not...I don't think the Etsy fellow is keen on refunds =_= ._. ...f---g hate the idea of losing that much..package deliveries to apartments are such a pain in the a-- to arrange.
I had to call my brother here to help me with console installation and we lack a Wii motion sensor or a GC controller which might substitute for it but everything is there as far as apparent software.
=_= Remorse is how he showed me this hours before he arrived here Retroid Pocket 3+ Review: All This For $150! - YouTube . `_` =~= *sigh* and I actually prefer handhelds !. I want to worry about rationalizing to myself why using a TV is better (bigger screen sure, not only for games but for laptop to HDMI connection.. =~= >~< always that imagined worry of the TV tipping over though !) -- speaking as someone whose interest in games doesn't go beyond ~'the 7th console generation ?' (i.e. nothing after the PS3,Xbox360 and og Wii ), emulator culture fascinates me whence it comes to entertainment venues even if I can understand it's struggles with legal grey areas of copyright and such.
._. *sigh* Busy week with a mind on a street named after the national capital where GC controllers can be found at none too pricely a price apparently..__
Last week I only did 1/2 as much exercise as I'd otherwise would do since I was gradually feeling unwell and this week I doubt I'll do any. That's something I haven't done in a very long time and it worries me.
For maybe the 3rd time in my life I'm at a point where I'm starting to reconsider what exercise means to me ._. ..my validation will come when my waitlist time to see a fitness trainer comes to an end but that might not be for a few more months, I worry when I think to myself of the remorselessly surly and evidently 'over the hill' in age and health ppl in this city, I think to myself how it's all the more a petty defense mechanism when you can't keep up with (if worst comes to worse) physical fighting.
I've experienced two failed muggings in my life thus far both in instances which were years after my current exercise fixation started originally from a cringey martial arts fixation where I thought I could one up a former powerlifting friend of my sister
..so..as hard as it is for me to say..one reason for my fixation has usually been 'to be in form' for things turning into assault..even if not actual martial arts which I dropped when I started feel aggro and projecting it onto family than staying in form with yoga and it's benefits for the back etc..
Worries about withdrawal syndromes from exercise addiction, you might say
There's a reason why next counseling session I'm expecting to focus on fitness anxiety..
When it comes to the recent 'struggles of adulting' aside from the whole deeply psychological factor of needing to adjust to a more 'cozy' meant for 1 person (in contrast to 2 person) by design, design of my apartment, it's come with an anxiety as to how to continue exercersing.
Since my habit began ~'11 I've always been privleged to aside from the rooms, to exercise in the ample family living room with a big enough screen TV playing videos for me to follow with. When having moved in, during the summer, even after how it took a bit for internet to arrive, with adjusting to the space limitations came a drastically altered living room spacing situation.
Part of this was resolved with eventually swapping tables but I finally ceded to the need for a gym membership even if it was at odds with my frugality and that helps, but it's still a f--g pain of a hassle to logistically arrive at b/c of Canadian winter, of which there are still (at least chronologically speaking) several weeks remaining of. It and the despair of a promptly arriving sunset.
*sigh*..=_= >:I ..this is one reason I distrust those who are showy about their fitness like certain YouTubers..lets see those scoundrels still commit to their regimens with no gym and the limited sunlight of northern regions.
I'm telling myself currently it's one reason I'm still at my parents. Last week I only went back to my apartment to get a melon, toothpaste and a COVID testing kit, went back on the Thursday evening to thoughout clean the place but decided to stay since Saturday evening w/my parents when upon returning after the banal drag of busing for a few simple cleaning supplies, I got a message from my sister suggesting I stay over to dog-sit originally but eventually decided to stay overnight again b/c I find it nearly pointless to hassle-fully arrange to drop me off again at night when I know that I'm going to be up watching YouTube (as I would here) well into past midnight before dozing off and waking to struggle on deciding where to exercise.
At my parent's it's fine, it's great to be here since there is usually enough time for me to exercise in front of the TV w/the various areas of space.
My worry is that of the mostly overaged, shoddy scoundrels who occupy my floor judging me for not being around* esp. when it's more indicative like when I left Saturday evening with a hefty trolley, through the fudging icy and snowladen sidewalks. One hefty enough, that upon getting to my parents my left knee and inner pelvic-thigh area felt sore.
* I d--n well time when I step out of my unit to avoid them and unfortunately my somewhat rough right door neighbour stepped out of his unit to talk to the 'two doors down and on the other side one' which is probably among the top 5 of those who I feel the most reservation for on that floor.

Glad for no pornography use today. Glad for no pornography use today, I guess.
Would I like to talk about the Wandering sword demo ?.
If I was the praying sort, I'd find occasion to be praying for something as glib as that known of the other 4th floor residents be out in the hallways commenting on me, asking me or asking "Hey buddy !, where the h--l were you ?' in the passive-aggressive but societally accepted as 'candidly warm and welcoming' kind of way which I eschew and am unfond of.
=_= and then I imagine arguing w/them about how they think I shouldn't be living here if I'm not around here that often..
>:I Nuts, to them, a fair amount of them don't even work on account of age
..whoever's the mod or UI designer on here truly ought to give an option to be able to edit postings for add ons plus typo and grammar corrections etc

An insidious rise to a loss of humility is when you feel that you live in such a bonkers surrounding that you are the only one with any benign sensibility, and you gradually think yourself better than others in that sense even though a part of your realizes, you are still very much fraud. It’s just that everything else everyone else seems worse.
It's ..tempting on one level..
if the recreational money I've planned for a modded console were to go to something like this instead..it's an unappealing spending idea esp. when you factor CAN to US dollar conversions..

I admire the QOVES studio channel ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnlvhYDQLq4d_C3JYEVnWAQ ) for being so astonishingly technical and detailed in a way beneficial to an artist or cosmetic surgeon..it goes well beyond pre-adult age harassing b--ds dismissing one as ugly not the least b/c 'it grounds' a topic as seemingly esoteric, as sought after but so often rarely well-described as human facial beauty..
but that facial analysis service and the sames of the different levels of it '_' =_= ..

`_` '-' d I can d--n well believe that this is a company which assists and consults with ppl who are seriously considering cosmetic surgery and not just 'glow ups' and stylizing. I barely understood the preliminary reports and I'd think that, that would be the threshold of the understanding of most ppl including say portrait artists.
>_< '_' When you get to the 'comprehensive' report..the details about facial structure, they go wwwwayyyy beyond the detail some a--hole ridicule-some prepubescent would state, eh ?.
Got home, stuffed buggy with laundry and all and no one judged me all the while. Nor on the frenetic fuss to get all my needed laundry done. What's left for upon the morn, is to wake, sweep, make my bed plus put away a few things before ideally ? and in no particularly order donate a pair of pants, attain forgotten frozen broccoli soup, attain mail meant for me but still directed to rest of family and maybe walk with a dog. Also return the physical library books.
...'planet of the apes' marathon sans the 2010's trilogy if I do a free trial of 'Disney+' ?. That franchise is owned by Fox..Foxcatcher might be on Hulu. No rush anyhow on that.
I cut my arrangement of sending a dollar to one of my siblings for every pornography related lapse until April fool's day short. Formally counselling next Wednesday.
My motivation drops with the sunset which is why I prefer summer--the beginning of a 'not too intense' storm outdoors begins.
What with the presence of Hulu stuff, I think I might consider a Disney+ subscription for at least a few weeks after a free trial since I've Foxcatcher, Planet of the apes stuff (a Fox franchise) on my mind among other things.
More than social, behavioral, cognitive or non-secular oriented psychology I truly feel a wanting to commit to studying sports psychology since a part of me wants to make sense, make sense even by analogy of what inner demons there are in me in the form of impulses of competitiveness. F--k the elitism and 'action is more important than words' elitism of the meatheads.
Fitness assessment today. What lays in store ?.
Even those of us enter the age demographic who are expectant to have children yet for whatever reason don’t have a right to speak of cutsie prepubescent oriented media they are charmed by.
At the moment, I don’t know how to elaborate on this but ever since knowing of the character a few years before the 10’s I remember the character design around those years for ‘Strawberry shortcake’ to be endearing and ‘cute’ — this coming from someone who isn’t too fond of desserts. That design and the character overall soothes me like Alan Moore and Little Lulu *1 and even though there might’ve been a meanly intended satirizing of her and the IP from the one ‘Fairly odd parents’ special
( https://youtu.be/bKD0zFCCPKo —particularly with what happens to the dog facsimile :( )
I even found those spoof expy characters charming. I feel the same way about Rainbow brite and Punky Brewster even though both were more around scantly before my birth, library kid section comic books make them present— I’m aware of what harassing Soleil Moon Frye suffered upon hitting puberty even though I probably only really knew her as a roommate of post high school Melissa Joan Hart ‘Sabrina’.
“^_^ I don’t have as much an issue w/parodies of Sesame Street or the Care Bears (both of which I grew up with and liked). You might even say that adult swim’s ‘Smiling friends’ is a warped 2020’s spin on the Care bear premise somewhat.
*1
To be precise it was the '02-'03 Strawberry shortcake take that I was charmed by and I remember that since it had to be scantly before high school.
Back calves still tender after the running portion of the fitness assessment for which I finally have a better notion as to how to better use a treadmill.
Budgie drag to have yet another reason to wake earlier than I'd prefer in order to seek out iPhone battery repair options on the morrow.
-_- *sigh* If I know that irregardless of a course of action being offered or proposed for my iPhone 8 battery will not be enacted upon anyhow even if I do learn of these tomorrow might it be better to merely wait to look into phone battery repair possibilities upon my vay-kay time, late next month ?.
