BG3 got stuck at 92% again.
I am going to throw GOGs servers into a bonfire, wtf
Edit: Aborted again, restarting the download. Kill me.
Editedit: i found a few solutions on reddit and google, but I already aborted and restarted installation. If it gets stuck again, I'll start fucking around with the game files
I am genetically blessed but not Gillian Anderson blessed, genetically.
Okay I think I've had enough of work now. I'd like to go home please.
I got through some housework and then I sat down and that was a mistake hahaha but I'm setting a timer for 4 minutes and then getting up.
I am so tired of block buster movies, will watch more "normal " movies.
Yesterday it was "Puzzles". So nicely made and scripted, characters so well drawn, no sets that I can tell, it was all on location, you forget you are watching a movie, it seems like voyeurism, 😭😭😭😭 ( tho the husband is not half as bad as such a character would be irl )
4 hobbits
( irl I have done nearly all the puzzles that were in movie. my fave shown was starry night , usually takes about 4 hours . The hardest puzzle I have ever done was a big one of Blue Poles )

Tonight is fajita adjacent fajitas.

Sounds awful but do you have that one actor that you just love to watch suffer. I've been very slowly rewatching Keeley Hawes' filmography since she was popping up in my British crime drama marathon a bit, and good grief she just gives a master class every time she has to act emotionally distraught. I love it when she gets to go for that slow emotional descent or that emotionally dejected look because I'm like, ok but like is she actually ok because she just genuinely looks fucked.
Update: my bid to upgrade to business class was unsuccessful BUT look at this! This might change throughout the day but as of now I have an empty seat next to me! 🤞
I'm a poet I'm a bard
I'm easy and I'm hard
I write rhymes out of time
I'll find the words for all of my
Sorrows and my aches
Turmoils and heartbreak
I do my best to be relatable
But the reality is debatable
So date-able but hateful
Shame and self-doubt
Fill me up and pour out
Of my mouth and my fingers
They hover waiting and linger
Upon words yet unspoken
They light up awakened
Waiting
Was just browsing https://aussie.zone/communities and forgot there is an actual community set up to ask for help of a technical nature for this platform. Looks pretty lonely in there. [email protected]
Anyone want to work for me today? I'm too tired and lazy. I'll give you a potato and some sardines
I sewed on a button in a rush this morning, and it's promptly fallen off again tonight. A testament to my excellent sewing skills.
