    Happy February! I'm happy to announce that I'm going to be throwing my hat in the ring and running for PC Chair this year! My good friend, former PC Chair, and current stats manager @MightyMario will also be running with me as my vice, and I'll have more information about what we plan to do with the committee once the election starts; you're also welcome to ask me any questions you may have for me directly.

    I'm about to go live for the first time in four and a half years over on my YouTube channel, you should come watch me play GD Randomizer.

    Just woke up from a dream about Mario Golf: Super Rush where Master Lob (who had a different name but I forget what it was) claimed that he had gotten really bored of normal golf while doing the angry stomp from Miitopia and challenged me to use a lob wedge to hit raspberries (which were definitely strawberries and not raspberries but whatever) into "pool beds" in Bubblaine.

    I don't know how hot of a take this is but as a writer, I hate outlines. I feel like spontaneity adds a lot of realism to stories and outlining stories makes them too rigid and kills said spontaneity.

    There's a concept among story tellers that there are two kinds of writers: Pantsers and Planners. Broadly, it identifies that some writers like to plan little, act spontaneously, and write by the seat of their pants (i.e. Pantsers), and others look further ahead, work with structure, and plan the whole thing out in advance (i.e. Planners).

    Whether you prefer one or the other (or most likely, some ratio between the two) depends on what kind of person you are, what you're comfortable with, and where your priorities lie as an artist. Both methods can be used well. Both can be used disastrously. But one is not inherently superior to the other.

    The writing process is as unique as the individual writing it

    So basically there's two kinds of writers: one who plans first and then writes, and one who writes first and then plans.

    How do you describe the sound Shy Guys make? Is there an onomatopoeia for it?

    Kind of a like a mix between a cat meowing and duck quacking.

    I always thought it was like, "Why-whoa!" or something like that!

    Currently nearly crying laughing. At what, you may ask?

    Recording videos is a lot more fun than I remember but hearing my own voice sucks just as much as I remember.

    If only either combination of sound waves and vibrations that come from me weren't terrible.

    I think most people you talk to irl don't see it that way lol, that's literally you to them.

    I'm sure objectively my voice isn't that bad, but I have turbo self consciousness about my entire physical presence because I'm trans and not only have I not transitioned, but there's parts of me that I can't do anything about like my height or, in this case, how deep my voice is.

    Only minor apologies to Cycles v2 S for my 0 enjoyment rating because having to hear my ex's really grating voice on the other side of the wall making the experience worse isn't the level's fault, but also the level itself is awful so I'm not that sorry.

    The day MK8D gets mods that let me have some level of control over who the CPUs are or where they're placed is the day I finally see happiness.

    That's not quite what I was looking for anyway. I'm looking for something that will let me either (A) choose which CPUs show up in each match individually, (B) limit the pool of possible CPUs to only the characters I like, or (C) make it so the characters I don't like will at least somewhat reliably perform poorly so they don't stay in the top three in versus races.

    I do not want to go to my classical rhetoric class tonight but one of my best friends is doing the secondary source presentation and I refuse to miss her.

    Send your positive energy to the Geode devs so they can get an update out as soon as possible for 2.208, I want to play GD with all my mods on again.

    Does anyone else have Discord (or a phone at all) in their dreams? Apparently some people say there are no phones in dreams but I actively use Discord in my dreams on a regular basis.

    It varies from dream to dream, but often I can and do respond to messages in my dreams.

    Now that's crazy because I can only type correctly maybe 20% of the time.

    Leave it to someone with a degree in English (and minor in creative writing) to be stressing over whether or not my poem should end with a period or not.

    I have a TA friend who says she enjoys teaching 8:00 AM classes and I just want to know how she's built so different because I can't even wake up at 9:00 without being extremely tired, let alone be teaching by then.

    You both are on different sleep schedules I guess

    There's different sleep schedules and then there's my friend actively enjoying early morning classes. I'm glad she's willing to claim them so I don't get stuck with them come next semester when I start but still, I don't get it.

    I'm a night owl and giving it some thoughts, I actually preferred morning classes myself. Somehow, I felt more focused during these classes. The afternoon classes were actually snoozefest for me (thanks coffee for helping me out with this lol).

    Still, I absolutely despise waking up early... 😅

    Happy to report that even my dreams are calling me Jasper so I'm definitely sticking with that as my name.

    Just described the bottom eight characters in the Mario Kart match I'm in as "six and a half humans and Toadette," which also happens to contain the name of my new band, Six and a Half Humans.

    I can't wait for my doctor to tell me someday that I have the world's most skewed, barely held together back.

    If for some reason you ever need to gaslight your friend into thinking they're bad at Mario Kart, I'll show up to your online match and destroy them for you.

    I don't play with friends because I don't have any at the moment. I usually play with C.P.U or the people online in MK8DX. So you can't really do that
