Influenza My experiences with my latest influenza infection condensed into a single post

All systems operational. I'm back to normal. My brain feels like it's been rewired, though?? Weird.

Stupid flu. Can't even move my eyes anymore. Started taking meds today. This isn't a battle I can win with a raw system. I'm stupid, I should've started medicating immediately.

For all of the corru.observer players out there:
If you have completed FSHY (the rougelike hard mode thing) for the first time, you get the option to replay it later. When you do, make sure to apply the HUMORIST impulse to all of your shells. After you've done that, the next time you trigger the RULESET PARARDOX on the firmament fight, you'll be able to pick a special revision before initiating the next loop. You'll know which one when you see it. Pick it.

I will not spoil the rest. Good luck. You'll need it.

Turns out I caught the flu. God damn it. So much for evening walks... The stomach pains are also very likely coming from it. Ugh.

Alright, sleeping helped a lot. My brain feels really slow right now tho.

Also, flailin' around in -10 degree weather finally got to me. Sick like hell, literally wearing a jacket in my room 'cause i'm so cold, vision gets blurry when my pressure rises. All of the fun stuff, really. Daily reminder to hydrate.

I've heard so many people talking about their first this and their first that.
Their first day at school, their first time with the Internet, their first TF2 or CS match, their first words even...

I don't remember my firsts. I have no clue even what my first phone was. That memory got wiped a long time ago. I don't remember my first TF2 match. I don't remember my first time I pissed myself in the shitter or whatever. I have like maybe three vague memories from my early childhood, and even those have almost completely faded away. Hell, I can barely remember what I ate for breakfast this morning. I guess my "firsts" just weren't important enough to me.

Ugh. I have so many things I wanna put into this site but I can't bring myself to do it...
FUCK IT, I'm locking in.

My stomach has been randomly hurting every couple of hours for the past 4 days. Probably some sort of cancer that will kill me. Oh well. If it doesn't go away in a few days I'll have it checked, since so far it's not causing me any trouble – no vomiting, no nothing. Could just be some mad indigestion.

Just finished changing the main spring and piston in a CM 700 (airsoft) sniper rifle. Never again. I swear to god that damn thing is cursed. I'll write a review about it somewhen.

God, I HATE CACHED CONTENT!!!! I get why it's here, and I get why it's useful, but that doesn't change the fact that people probably don't notice minor changes to my site's styling, because their browsers load the cached CSS files.

I want to add a review/post about all the phones I ever owned but I'm DREADING it purely because of how much writing there'll be.
I actually wanted to start today, but my meteorology finals got in the way – had to make a trip to my university.

Yesterday Youtube's algorithm showed me a mythical recommendation pull. It was this guy. I assume it's just some random kid's channel based on the videos but... he has like 300+ videos of just electrical poles. What the fuck.

This is the video that was recommended to me specifically. It's so out of context it's hilarious.

Ever since February began my days have been nothing but just coding this site (when it comes to my free time ofc, I still do other things). I'm not complaining, or anything, but.. damn. It's insane how much I got sucked in.

Just lobotomized an old Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 and installed LineageOS on it!
I can't state enough how shocked I was to discover that the LineageOS ROM for this phone had a newer Android version than my main phone! A phone from 2017 had newer Android that the one I use every day!

A few months ago I stumbled upon a video of people playing on my Garry's Mod map.

It was really weird seeing it so full of life. Most of my time spent looking at this map was through the lens of the Hammer editor, but here there were actual players.. just shooting eachother, watching videos together, having fun.

It made me really happy knowing I created a space that people were having fun in...
Then I realised that the "Lambda Players" in the video are just nextbots meant to mimic real players.
Oh well, the feeling was nice while it lasted.

Every time I get to coding my site I often just.. stare at it, and just watch it. Imagine brainstorming, but without the brain, and the storm being a light drizzle at best.
