Okie dokie
I was playing Sims 4 earlier and my mom started to cry from how hard she was laughing because my VR video game system, stereo, one of my sinks, and my washing machine all broke at once and the sink and washing machine started to flood the rooms they were in, and the sink that had broke somehow had gotten really dirty too. I tried to make my Makoto Sim do the dishes before he went to bed but he saw everything that had happened and just left the dishes on the ground and went to take a nap, so I had to have Chihiro call the repairman. The two daughters had aged up into children, and Celestia's daughter literally woke every adult up in the house to complain about a monster under her bed and Makoto was the only one who actually did anything about it and I was annoyed because I had just finished putting literally every Sim to bed. The repairman still hadn't shown up at that point. My mom said she has no idea what I do in my games to make things like that happen because normal things always happen in her games lol
Nothing ever happens in mine. They just...be normal. ANd by that I mean they just sit on the couch all the time. Then I tell them to do something else and they STILL just sit.And they don't have the lazy traits!!
I was thinking maybe you have Free Will turned off but even if you did they would still listen when you told them to do something, lol
They're aware they're in a virtual world and are resisting their godIt's thw Matrix!!
After this fanfic about the date, I have absolutely no idea what I want to work on next. My whole writing schedule is thrown out of balance now. I'm working on a cute little Halloween AU on the side as a writing warm-up but I'm not sure if I want to keep working on it after this fic because it's actually part of a series and I feel like with how my schedule usually is I won't get it actually done in time for Halloween.
My mom also started laughing because my Celestia Sim is a social media personality and she has to update her social media status every day as part of her job, and for the past two days I've gotten a pop-up that says: "Everyone needed to know about how much you enjoyed that diet cola," And diet cola is the favourite drink of the one guy in the series whom I absolutely cannot stand her being shipped with but it's her most popular ship, and I told Mom: "Even in the Sims 4 I can never escape from Celestia and Hifumi!"
Is that a mod or what? I've never heard of that :P
The social media career? It's not a mod, it's a career in the actual game if that's what you're asking about.
I don't recall that one.I remember a YouTuber I used to watch did a social media mod
It doesn't actually show her on social media or anything, it's just her career. I'm pretty sure it's called something else in the actual game but that's her career.
I think it's the same in the mod. Like it has Get to Work goals or something
I know for a fact it's not a mod because my mom never ever gets gameplay mods. The only mods she has ever installed for The Sims 4 have been for clothes and hair and stuff.
I still have no clue whart I should do there >.< or maybe Sims 3. I hear those expansions are fantastic
My mom has huge problems getting Sims 3 to work lol
It runs fine here but the UI feels clunky and I don't like the outdated look.
Everytime she tries to load hers up it just crashes.
How does she like it vs SIms 4 when it actually works?
Her love for them is equal because to her they're like two different games. She likes the expansion packs of Sims 3 way better because they gave her a lot of stuff she's always wanted to do, but she likes the realism and customization of Sims 4. I'm with her on that, Sims 4 makes it easier to make certain anime characters lol
I really want to try the supernatural and time travel expansions but at the same time I rarely play! >.<
The guy I wrote that requested fanfic for changed my author's note to make it less obvious he was the one who requested it, which I actually do understand, I do, but I'm not a huge fan of how he rewrote it. I was hoping he would at least keep in the part about it being an anonymous request just in case other people want to request stuff from me, but he changed it into saying a best friend of mine who was bad at writing smut asked me to write it for her and I don't know why but something about that wording makes me feel uncomfortable. I also didn't really like how he changed my original sentence of: "I don't really do stuff like this very often" Into: "I don't usually do stuff like this, believe it or not!" Which also kinda rubs me the wrong way since I'm actually not the biggest fan of writing smut and as a result I feel like I'm pretty bad at it.
I'm probably overthinking the whole entire thing but it's been on my mind for a few days now and it's been bugging me.
Other People: "Lol it's so stupid how Kylie Jenner has just now tried cereal with milk and acting like it's some huge deal," Me, a genuinely confused person who has watched their show: "How is it the first and only time she's had cereal???? They have cereal in their house! Khloe likes to organize the cereal they buy depending on the person who likes it. And it's stuff like Lucky Charms! Has Kylie just never known it was there or something?"
I had yogurt yesterday and didn't get sick from it. My stomach didn't even hurt. Which means whatever I was sick with on Saturday wasn't because of yogurt. I have no idea what it was, but I'm going to be more mindful of what I'm eating for the next few days. It likely won't happen again because I have my suspicions of what it was and it's something I hardly ever eat, but I still don't know for sure. It's better safe than sorry.

I literally spent three and a half hours last night playing Dream Boyfriend. I was honestly trying to make myself feel better but somehow I got sucked into it again especially since I changed my boyfriend's personality type and unlocked all types of dialogue choices and date scenes lol
I felt like maybe going back to my roots concerning fanfiction would make me feel better. Not that I'm out of touch with my roots, but I haven't written a Hetalia fanfic in so long and they're some of my most popular works, not to mention the fandom I write the most stuff for. So I decided I would work on an AU involving my OTP for that series. The AU is one I've wanted to see for a very long time now, but nobody ever made with that specific ship. I didn't really want to write it, but I figured I might as well now because what's the harm? Maybe working on this will help me feel better about my stuff in general, because it is almost completely self-indulgent lol
Nagisa Shiota from Assassination Classroom is transgender thank you for coming to my TEDTalk
Why do you say that? :P
I just feel like he is, I headcanon it in fact. There's that stuff with his mom, how uncomfortable he is to be referred to as a girl, his overall appearance, how some of his classmates treat him, etc. Plus at the end of the series (Spoilers) as an adult his hair is very short and his body is really masculine-looking. As a kid his body didn't look that way. If he had been born a boy he'd have a more boyish-looking body. I mean, you can disagree with me, but be respectful about it please? Everyone else I tell this headcanon to becomes overly rude to me and insults me, calling me stuff like 'f**king delusional'. I've even gotten called transphobic, of all things. It's...annoying, to say the very least.
Who gave my Horoscope permission to be so positive today, I'm a Sagittarius, I don't deserve this
I dont really see it but to each theie own.Maybe she just really wanted a girl? There's a Pokemon antagonist so obssessed with a Pokemon she forced her children to dress up like and act like the Pooemon. Maybe it's like that?
Maybe, but I feel like there might be more to it than just that. But it's just my headcanon, not a fact. At least you're being respectful about it. You're literally the first person in the fandom who has been.
I finished that really self-indulgent fanfic, lol. It didn't take me very long because writing stuff for that specific ship never takes very long. I definitely had a lot of fun and feel a little bit better, but I'm not fully confident yet....not to mention, I have no idea what to work on again!
*Shrugs* If peoppe get that angry at a real person over the speculation of a fictional character, I think they need to step back and evaluate their life choices.
I just get annoyed because I genuinely believe him to be trans because of the way he's presented in the series, but people make fun of me for it. Yet in some other fandoms people consider the most random characters to be trans and if you dare question them you will be blacklisted, even if that character being trans makes literally no sense in canon. Like, at least you can kinda see why I consider Nagisa trans, right?
Someone emailed a bunch of RPers asking what anime this one girl came from. They hadn't been able to find any information on it. And the girl was the face-claim I've used for Emily from Universes Unite! And I knew the anime! I hope they're satisified! They haven't emailed me back yet.
I can't shake the feeling that something really good is going to happen to me today. I wonder what it could be?
I've published three fanfics these past few days. That is such a record; usually I just publish one a month, every once in a while two. I am feeling so good though! My followers are being spammed with notifications of my new stuff and for once I don't even care! I just feel so great! Elated! Ecstatic! High! Euphoric, even! I don't even know why, but I think I got my groove back! Not just for writing, but for life in general!
That's awesome!Maybe that is the really good feeling you got yesterday?
The past few days were amazing! I got a book I won in a contest and more information about my college! I got a really good box of doughnuts on Thursday. I posted another fanfic on Friday but it's not done yet; it's multi-chapter. My grandparents visited on Sunday and I got pizza! And really good homemade macaroni and cheese, and ham/cheese sandwiches, and banana pudding! But the best surprise of them all was on Monday. My RP partner, Sarah, the girl I have been RPing with ever since August 2015, finally returned to me!!!! After almost a year of silence she posted a message on FaceBook asking for RPers. I saw my opportunity and seized it, asking if she wanted to continue ours.
And she did!!!!!!!! We're both a bit rusty in terms of our characters but we're making it work. We both missed each other sooooooo much but we settled right back into the groove of conversation. I cannot even begin to describe how absolutely elated and euphoric I am over this!!!
So uhhhh....I finally got a Steam account. I'm PinkFanatic23. I want some people I know to befriend me on there so we can like, talk, play dating simulators,

I'm Jurassic King but my picture is actually Anubis :P
I'm going to change my picture tomorrow once I can actually get on a better computer. But I get the feeling that in spite of that I actually won't use it very much.
Are you sure it's right> it's saying there's no users with that name

She has disappeared for long amounts of time in the past due to those things, but this time has been the longest she's been gone.
PinkFanatic23? If my account isn't there I'm going to be really upset. The school laptop doesn't let me access Steam, so I'm going to have to check tomorrow on the family computer. It was having problems earlier when I used it on the iPod but I just assumed that was because it was on mobile.
Not seeing it, no :\

My mom and I got into another huge argument earlier. Basically I told her that on Amazon, the version of Danganronpa that I want is $75 at the cheapest if you buy it used, while the new version being sold by Amazon is $205. Mom said the game is likely out of print in America if she is unable to find it at any stores and if it's that expensive online even for a used copy. I told her it'd be a bad business practice if it's out of print because of how popular it is, and then I got upset because everyone else got to play it, even one of my friends, and I did not want him to play through all of it and finish it before I did.
She asked how that friend was even able to get that game if he didn't have a PS4, and I said he found it on Steam and was going to see if he could buy it from there and play it. Mom instantly got curious and asked if it actually is on Steam, and I said it was for like $20-30. She then said that settled it; she was going to buy it on PC on Steam for me to play and that she was so happy she found a solution and that I should be happy too because I was finally going to get the game I have been wanting forever. She said she was going to get the first one...well, first, by itself, and then work our way up from there.
But I flipped out instead, talking about how I didn't want it on the PC, I wanted it on the PS4. Mom said there wasn't any room on the PS4 anyway and that she wasn't about to spend so much money on a game that I couldn't even put on the PS4 anyway. I continued to be persistent though, talking about how playing games like that on the PC felt so impersonal because usually the controller vibrates, shakes, makes noises, and lights up depending on what is happening in the game and that makes it more immersive for me. I also didn't want it to be purchased on my baby brother's Steam account, I wanted it to be on my own.
Mom eventually let me go, seemingly upset and considering not buying the game for me at all.
Call me ungrateful, I don't care. I do not want that game on the computer. And the reasons why are:
For starters, I only have access to that computer eight and a half hours a day on weekdays. True, it's a lot of time, but I usually spend that time doing stuff I can't normally do on the laptop or iPod, like responding to RPs or writing fanfics, especially the latter. I end up spending my time doing things like that and I completely disregard any game that is on there. I've only finished two Five Nights at Freddy's games. Not because I dislike them, but because that is all I've had time to do. And even then a lot of times I forced myself to stop doing something else and play those games just so Mom's money wouldn't be wasted.
If it was on the PS4, I would actually play it. I want a console game and with a PS4, I have to actively set it all up and therefore, I get excited to play the game. If it's on the computer, I'm just going to let it sit and freaking rot because I can't pull myself away from doing stuff like writing fanfics, and 99% of the time I don't want to stop doing things like that anyway.
I don't mind letting games like The Sims 4 rot because that game is mainly for Mom and she gets a lot of use out of it. I would be the only one playing Danganronpa and therefore if I'm not playing it, it would just sit and be useless.
Plus....I.....I get extremely nervous about playing computer games after a bad experience. I start to have panic attacks and half the time I literally cannot focus on the game. The first time I loaded up Five Nights at Freddy's I nearly started to cry simply because I couldn't find the exit button. I'm always afraid of the game getting corrupted or freezing up or crashing or making the computer crash. I feel a lot more confident and happier playing PS4 games because yeah those things can happen, but they're rarer than when they happen to computer games.
Plus, EVERYONE has played the PC version. But hardly anyone has played the PS4 version. It has better graphics and I was dying to see how much better they looked because I have literally never seen any footage or screenshots from that version of the game.
I've seen people play the Steam version and the translations seem really strange to me. They make everyone and everything seem way too causal and for most of the characters, that doesn't fit their personality. But that's more of a personal complaint.
My main concern though is the fact that I'm going to get the game, then let it sit there and rot for years and years on end simply because I find much better ways to spend my time on the computer. I want a console version so I won't be tempted to do something else, basically.
Call me ungrateful all you want. I do not want a PC version.
Nah I understand. i have problems with console games for my own reasons. I hate controllers most of the time ((I tried Borderlands 2 on Xbox with a friend and my aim was as good as a stromtrooper)), plus I just like the feel of a keyboard and mouse. And I enjoy playing online but to do that on console you need to shell out extra money. On PC unless it's like, an MMO it's just buying the game then play it online as much as you like till the servers are shut down and even then people find ways to make their own servers. Seriously. There is an old Star Wars MMO that was shut down and people have cracked it open and made it playable again. That's some impressive stuff.I also like PC graphics since you can easily add texture packs and things like Nvidia physx adds extra detail but that's just me.
Then there's the fact my family hogs the TV so I never get to use it for any games.
So I get where you're coming form, wanting a game on one specific platform.
it's personal
