My paint water currently looks dangerously like orange juice. Must change it before an accident happens XD;;

While cooking rice earlier:
*turns stove on*
*looks at cup of water sitting on the counter* Just gotta wait for it to boil now.
....
Wait.

Email: "We've grown so far apart. Come back, here's a deal we can make. I just want to see you again. =< "
Me: "...You're a business. I was practically forced to sign up for this by a pushy cashier, and I made all your emails go to Spam. This is one-sided. It's not over because it was never on. Go awayyyy."

My brother saw the latest Star Wars Rise of Skywalker movie. I have not seen it. We were both bashing it because we don't like the new trilogy, but that this installment he especially didn't like. Anyway, my brother was nonetheless being careful with spoilers because he knows I care about spoilers in general. This is the one movie where I mentioned I didn't. And then I asked about a plot thing the movie was leaning towards. He began pondering if he should talk around the subject. And then I made a guess, and after confirming that I don't mind him telling me, he went: "Okay, well, you basically just got the entire thing." I'm usually not this good at predicting things. xD (For those wondering what the spoiler was:) It was about Rey's lineage.
Really, it's the only thing that "makes sense."
I say that in quotes because it really doesn't (how), but I could infer that that's what they were going for. I wouldn't mind it so much if I felt they lead to it better. My brother and I talked about a way that it could work strongly cinematically with what they had set up. He informed me that they did not go that route.
We concluded that the entire trilogy is Palpatine's revenge-fic.

Updating my CV and cringing at all the blatant lies I told to get my current position. "Alternated seamlessly between serving customers on the tills and on the shop floor" I know full well there were a GREAT MANY SEAMS and several of them were me smart-mouthing my colleagues while skipping childishly back up the ramp to my department, after being freed from till-duty.
(London nerdstore, you are forever in my heart.)

So I bought a container of candies.
I open the lid. To find there's a seal I need to remove. Once done, I find there's a paper insert designed to even further protect. And then below, are finally the candies... Individually wrapped.
They're little candies. They do not need this much protection. xD;

To help cope with clinical ADHD/anhedonia (and per my previous, now retired psychiatrist's approval), for the past few days I've been starting a new multivitamin (not a shill — just sharing the link if you're curious). It's technically marketed for women, but the decent price and the higher-quality forms of each vitamin (at least, going off my months of unprofessional research) had me sold. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Decided to spend the day figuring out the whole issue with my frozen locks in depth because I am so tired of being afraid to leave the house because of it, I have a life, dangit.
Looking up lock lubricants because I feel like the lock needs it, and I don't think the kind I have will work.
"Just use this!" "No, never use this! Here, use that!" "What, no, never use that! Here, use this powder-based thing that most people generally agree on." "NO, NOT THE POWDER THING, USE OUR PRODUCT!!1 (Nevermind that we also sell the powder thing.)"
...Please. I just want to be able to go in and out of my house in peace. xD

Update: I've realized this song actually relates to one of my characters, so now it is Special x3 (I'd add it to a character playlist if I made such things)

Whoops, actually I kinda dig it and have hit replay multiple times already. Heh, I feel that. xD "Wait, but I'm not supposed to like this... ... ...Says some random person on Youtube. Meh! *Adds to favorites!* " (Even if I can see where they're coming from, I can still see the merits. xD )

Twillie - Yeah, if it pertains to my interests, I'll probably check it out. I may see something that they don't. ^^ (Normally I don't necessarily check something out if I'm not too interested. xD But yeah.) But yeah, unless they're sassing the thing because of problematic issues with the thing, it's all a matter of taste. And if it is problematic... I guess it depends on what and the degree of it, and how intentional it was.
