If you pronounce "pride" in a funny way it sounds like you're saying "pretty" and I think that's just poetic.

I cannot draw to save my life so any avatar you see me using was commissioned, usually from someone on Bluesky. There's multiple that I've commissioned and they're all great.

I can't believe I've had this account for 12 years now. I was in sixth or seventh grade when I joined and now I'm less than a year away from graduating college and starting grad school.

Me and @Shockwave are really close to finding the last of the random item preset themes from MK8D but I still thought I would ask everyone else here if they can find any connections. Here's the last two we aren't entirely sure on:


MightyMario says this is less of a theme and more of a challenge where you'll constantly be pelted with Bloopers so you can't see if you're driving into the bananas or Bob-ombs. I'm not really sold on that since all the other themes are "things that [X]" so to me this just looks like "Things that start with B," except that doesn't add up because Boos, Boomerang Flowers, and Bullet Bills aren't included.


This one seems to be "Things that you don't get in first place" but I still wonder if there's something else it could be. If no one else has any ideas then we'll probably stick with that.

I'm not crazy for remembering a latest posts section on the main page, right? Not latest profile posts, just latest posts in general. Did it get removed in the last two and a half months or something?

Hi. Dropping in to document something that I can't find any reference to anywhere on the wiki.

So it turns out that if you press "Random" on the custom items menu in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, it actually selects randomly from a list of ten presets, which all seem to be themed in some way (all red items, all items that rotate around you, all items from Mario Kart 64, etc.).

I have screenshots of all ten of the presets, should I put them in a thread here so we can try to determine the themes of all of them? There's about half of them that I haven't been able to determine.

How nice that I drop in and I see that people are kind enough to wish me happy birthday. Belated thanks for that.

Anyway, there's even more cool updates in my life besides just that I'm 23 now; last month I got accepted to grad school, and a couple days ago I got notified that my legal name has been changed so even though my mental health is down, good things are happening in my life.

I might also come back and try to be active on more occasions

Popping in to share an achievement I'm extremely proud of.

I just finished writing a novel.

A full length YA novel at 50 chapters and 325 pages, all in under 100 days (98 days, to be exact).

I'm so happy with all the progress I've made and I want to thank all of you for the support I've gotten in my time here.

I know I haven't been here basically at all in like a month so let me just say there's a couple reasons for it. For one, over the course of October, I had a really big dropoff of my actual interest in being here so I decided to just step back for a while.

But then November started with me having to listen to a group of nine people shit on my writing style and be surprisingly ableist about it? All the things they said were bad about my story could just be chalked up to "This is something I struggle with because of my autism" and it hurt a lot because I couldn't defend myself.

And then the election happened and my spirit was completely broken. I'm still trying to come to terms with it because I'm terrified of a nationwide ban on trans rights, even though I still think the states that I'm associated with (Illinois and Massachusetts) will keep protections in place for trans people. Needless to say though, I'm very tired and scared.

I'll just have to see what happens with my life and the world and everything to determine if I'll ever come back fully. I might still drop in from time to time to finish out my term on the Poll Committee but things are pointing toward retirement right now.

If you do want to keep in touch with me, the best way to do that is by sending me a friend request on Discord. My username is multimediacelebritypoker and I have it open basically all the time.

I finally deleted my Twitter account last night. I hadn't been active on there in two years, only returning to retweet the same tweet about Allen Ludden every day on October 5. But now that I'm on Bluesky and they have videos, my Allen Ludden tradition can continue without me having to benefit the horrible owner of the bird app in any way.

Someone submitted to a literary journal using light gray text on a white document.

Genuinely illegible.

Why is the Mario Party DS soundtrack so bassy?

So glad I won the second set with a score of Bowser Jr. to 8.

I'm not a web designer. What do you think I am, a spider?

Downsides of wearing a mask:
-I wear glasses. I think that says everything you need to know about that

Positives of wearing a mask:
-It has a Shy Guy on it and Shy Guys are always a positive
-I don't feel like I'm making other people sick when I start coughing
-I can lip sync and no one will know it

"They found Celebrity Number 6" isn't something I expected to read today.

Recently I've been absolutely obsessed with the em-dash. I've used it so much in my writing -- mostly because it's the punctuation form of getting distracted.

What stories/authors did you look at in your high school English classes? I'm asking this because when I start teaching 101/102 (the introductory composition classes in college), I want to avoid the typical high school readings.

It makes me so happy that we refer to defective cars as "lemons."

Today was actually pretty productive given that I had two classes, hung up two flyers and gave another one to the library to hang up themselves, and lined up two letters of recommendation for grad school.

I don't know why I'm so excited to draw a raffle winner at open mic in a couple weeks.

That surely relatable moment when you invent a character as a shower thought but then you develop a hyperfixation for them.

So I have a modded Wii U but trying to run my mods on it is totally falling apart. Sometimes it doesn't work, sometimes it gets stuck in a loading loop, sometimes the mod software runs but doesn't work, and sometimes it just crashes for no reason. I'm starting to wonder if I should just replace my Wii U or something.

E: If you're wondering, I can run unmodded software (even if it was dumped to the NAND rather than running from a disc) perfectly fine. It's only mods that become incredibly janky and finicky. I also make my own mods and I've been using them for a few years now with no issues. All the mess that's been going on has started within the last week or so.

Is there a term for when you're not an insomniac but your body just really hates being asleep for some reason?
