What are you using for the posts? 2x4 or 4x4?

I saw it was from scraps mostly, but how much would you estimate this to cost vs a store bought tree?

There’s probably a ton of decisions that I could change, but one of them would be not to join the military and to go to college instead for meteorology. I don’t know where I would be now, maybe in debt and stuck, or maybe really enjoying a career in a field I love. Regardless, it would be interesting.

Otherwise, to not accept the proposal from my then boyfriend. Had we broken up, I feel like I would have figured out my sexuality earlier and potentially been happier. But instead, I’m facing down a divorce and restarting my life all over.

It’s where I go to waste time. Sometimes I learn something new, sometimes I have an existential crisis from an interactive plaything, sometimes I build sandcastles and burn them down.

That’s what I came here to say as well. It’s so well done and it hits in such a profound way.

Have you read any of the short stories on the game’s website? I highly recommend it. Catherine’s is so sad and it really gives a ton of insight into what she went through.

What is it about the Long Dark that’s stuck with you?

Sweet potato fries. Or overly orange fries for any reason (sometimes the frying just seems to make them orange, especially curly fries?).

Was youngish, friend took me out to lunch and I had a meatball sub with sweet potato fries. Yum yum. Until, of course, 3am the next morning when all that came up and was orange and potato-y. I refuse to try them again to this day. Although I love sweet potatoes, lol, just not sp fries.

I read somewhere that it’s because human eyes focus on something that is the size of your thumbnail at an arm’s length, so pretty small, and that distorts things a little bit so that what we’re focusing on appears larger. Whereas cameras take in the entire field of view as their focus (at least phone cameras, lenses are a whole other ballgame), and all of that data being poured in at once means the distortion isn’t there.

But that could be complete bull. I just read it somewhere on the Internet and it made sense lol.

Not too much of a rabbit hole, but it’s fun to waste some time on some small thing here and there. I find a lot of fun or weird stuff there and I love it.

• The deadlights in Stephen King’s IT. ::: spoiler The scene where the turtle is dead hits me right in the existential dread. spoiler :::

• SOMA. There were sections in the game that were scary, but the entire concept is really a mind melt. It’s not like it’s not a common theoretical question, but going through it step by step is another thing. And if you go to the home page of it and read some of the short stories, it really adds to the whole experience.
