  • Yissss

    I got to a show late one time, and I was so dejected when I got there and Mikael said “We are going to play two more songs for you tonight.”

    I left over 40 minutes later, after the two songs+two encore songs, not at all disappointed.

    Another time, they came back out for encore songs and for the final song, he says

    “BLACK

    ROSE…

    hahahaha i am kidding here is Demon of the Fall though”

    Love them so much.












  • Smells is like an opposite trigger for me! With some very strong exceptions, I’m extremely smell… oriented? Anything from “Amazing” to just “interesting”. Some smells trigger a flight response though, and my brain says I gotta get away ASAP. Fertilizer/doodoo/stomach acid/most rot/ammonia/the kitchen drain trap goo after they haven’t been cleaned for a long time/mold make me panic a little and I gotta get away from it.



  • My partner got me a GPU a while back (oh my god I looked it up and it was ten years ago aaaaaaaaa) that was an incredible deal for its power, but had a TON of reports of coil whine. I was delighted to hear nothing from it the first few days of playing! Then it promptly died. To death. To shreds, even. ah well, it happens, better now than out of return period. I sent it back for a replacement and got another one, TERRIFIED its replacement would be an auditory nightmare after being lucky the first time.

    I got lucky the second time, and it still works to this day!

    I feel you on that one. Cotton balls don’t bother me, but I know that’s a nightmare for my mum. That and just the idea of

    The Idea that some might not wanna think about

    chewing tin foil

    (I’m sorry to put that in anyone’s head if that bothers them oh god lemme spoiler that just in case) bothers her a ton but doesn’t really hit for me.

    Electronic sounds can be a nightmare. I love CRTs but I can’t be around many of them because they hit my brain in The Bad Spot. One tiny benefit to my tinnitus is I’ve found a few CRTs that seem to have a similar/the same frequency so I can be around them when they’re on!



  • Oh god yeah. I LOVE Pokémon but the highest a Pokémon game has gotten from me is a 7/10 (Smoon, Bwhite) in many years. bwhite had a great story with great mechanics and great QoL. Smoon had EVERY Pokémon in it and was the last game to do so. The beginning was an awful slog, but I loved all the locations, music, QoL features, and the endgame was incredible. Loved Battle Tower and how simple the game made to see the IVs of your Pokémon, while still keeping it challenging to breed a near perfect or perfect one.

    The Switch main line games are mediocre to abysmal (ScarVio are neigh unplayable on the Switch) and the Legends game are good: 6/10 for Arceus and I just started ZA or whatever on an emulator and don’t have an opinion at all on it yet, other than it sure does look nice at 1440p/60 hahaha
