fucked up pixel art today again, prolly gonna quit it for a while even bc it tortures me n i fr just plain suck at it. like, even the so-called 'programmer art'. mine's just crappy n no cute at all. will try to think how to convert that game into non-pixel stuff bc i dumbly coded like ~50-fucking-% of it already bc coding is a breeze compared to creating pixel assets in my case. n for non-pixel stuuf all my pre-defined n pre-calculated shit's just not gonna work mostly plus i prolly will rework the whole UI as well. well, no one prepared me that for my asshole brain the hardest part of gamedev will be these fuckign teeny tiny pixel assets, nightmare!

Going to the cinema, putting my phone away, and watching a movie with no distractions? I wish it was that easy.

POV: It's 2 am. Windows decides NOW is update time. You didn't ask. You set Active Hours. Doesn't matter.

"We'll restart in 15 minutes."

You have:

Prolly first ever angry public toot but am so frigging INFURIATED!

Just saw a "bug report", not related to me personally anyhow.Just saw it on the internet. I will not point out at where n who n etc because it is inappropriate, so lemme just fucking burn about all such situations in general.

Currently am feeling less pacifistic n at the verge of accepting the worldview of those who suggest harmful stuff to users on reddit (will never accept it tho, users of FOSS systems must be protected if they arent arses, newbies especially must be protected).

Well, the "report" was about the program making the user "discouraged" and that because of it lagging after update they cant finish their projects in time and just a shitload of other highly disrespectful stuff. The user is on Windows.
And as much as am tolerant to Win and Mac users because I tend to pity them, I'm kinda starting to HATE.
Bitch. BITCH. Go and fucking download another version that will work for your abomination of a crippled system. Be fucking polite. You get these incredible tools and apps for fucking FREE as in free beer, YOU FUCKING GODDAMNED BITCH. SHUT THE FUCK UP WITH YOUR DISRESPECTFUL REPORTS OR GO CODE SUCH A TOOL FROM SCRATCH ON YOUR FUCKASS WINDOWS. HOPE YOU'LL SHIT YOURSELF IN THE PROCESS BEFORE WINDOWS DOES IT FOR YOU BOTH. BITCH.

Fr never felt SO goddamn infuriated by some random shite on the internet but i just fucking cant, saw this crap and somehow momentarily got angered to the utmost levels.

Starting to think that maybe just MAYBE it should be really better and nature-healing to just plain fucking boycott Windows users (and Apple adorers included) so they fuck with their shit themselves.

My relationship w/Odoo is tumultuous. He's needy & there's times when we have problems & can't find the right words to articulate the problem. I find plenty of bad relationship advice online from other broken-hearted, frustrated users. Sometimes there are success stories and I'm jealous. We can be at odds for days and days, and it's utter hell. And then finally I find the right thing to ask & he opens up & we fall in love again. Unfortunately, no makeup sex.
