@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Hey, I'm just glad you gave an answer like that, I don't even know what you mean by left monitor.

@TeaCatherine My setup pretty much looks like this

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Why exactly do you need two monitors?

Tonikawa OVA in 4 days, I've been waiting ever since my 12th birthday for this moment!

Because I can't read Discord and play games at the same time!

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Okay, yeah that makes sense.

Beat sonic cd with all time stones last night. Not really worth it, but still nice to see a different ending.

@TeaCatherine Yeah, it's helpful. Also, do you watch anime in sub or dub?

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko It depends but recently I've decided to watch subs and then maybe go back and see what the dub's like later on.

@TeaCatherine I watch in sub, I really don't like dub. I saw a clip of the Tonikawa dub, and let me just tell you... it traumatized me. I've seen really horrible dubs, but the Tonikawa is by far the worst.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Sometimes dubs are quite good, sometimes they suck and sometimes they're gag dubs which can occasionally make the work better.

@TeaCatherine Only dub I ever wanna watch is Ghost Stories. I've seen stupid clips from it, and I gotta watch it.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Yeah, I believe that's the most well-known example of a gag dub.

I'm gonna log off now. See you either Monday or a random time this weekend.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko See you.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika
So I was wondering about PS4 external HDD.
I heard any external HDD even officially from Sony have short life span and I'm afraid with my PS4 data storage when the external HDD suddenly stop working someday.
Also, I heard SSD for PS5 have very long life span as PS5 internal HDD.
Is it possible to add SSD for PS4 as additional internal HDD ?

it is really windy outside. Which sucks because I have to go rope a calf in an hour.

M'kay, that does it, this thread moves too fast for me anymore lol. I'll mostly stick with replies as usual. Nothing too crazy outside of that.

@MarioLover92 Don't get me wrong, I do like trying to figure things out for myself. But time is also a precious commodity to me, so there's usually a point where I cave to a guide or a brief online video lol. I usually turn to guides for Zelda games since I like to 100% them (Well, before Breath of the Wild and Tri Force Heroes made me hit my limit), but I'm careful to avoid plot spoilers. My playthrough of Majora's Mask 3D likely would've taken longer if I didn't know how to deal with some of the residents in Clock Town lol. Speaking of Sunshine, I technically have it on Switch via the 3D All-Stars collection, but I haven't played it yet.

@Sunsy Turkey buzzards (or "vultures") are very common here since I'm in a mostly rural area. A lot of animals = a lot of roadkill unfortunately.

With crowds, I'm not worried about getting lost really; I just have a huge aversion to people packing in around me, invading my space bubble, touching or jostling me unasked (I realize it's often unintentional, but it really bothers me), and not giving me space or any room to escape. I'm okay as long as something is between me and someone else ironically, like an armrest on public transportation (think a plane or bus) or like in your theater example. I don't know how people in densely populated spaces stand it. Tightly packed areas make me want to leave in a hurry. My anxiety starts going through the roof.

I'm glad your mother sided with you on the autism label's use. It shouldn't have a negative connotation at all. It sounds like that person was just ignorant of what they were saying vs. being malicious, but I cannot say without actually meeting or knowing this person.

Thanksgiving at my parents with my brother's family is now cancelled, because my dad has covid. He had manageable cold symptoms thursday, and my brother suggested my dad take a covid test. He tested positive twice. His last booster was late June, and he had a flu shot last month. So, crossing fingers that symptoms remain manageable.

I'm glad I got the Pfizer booster wednesday(coincidentally), rather than later.

My parents had been quite certain worrying about covid was over. Late november is when covid has surged here for the previous two years.

It’s had a silent resurgence lately, everywhere. Thankfully since most people are now vaccinated and/or have obtained natural defenses from previous infections, it’s been mostly just “a cold.”
