Hi frens. 

May was decent for the most part. I went to my friends wedding a couple weeks ago, this dude is awesome, hes the nicest guy in Butler county, heck probably in all of western Pennsylvania. Hes just a fun guy, great father, raised good kids, and all that, married a good gal too, I went to school with her (actually was my date for a JROTC event I was a part of lol) but she has good kids as well and the entire family is a great blend. 

Earlier in the month, the holy grail (at least to me) of Lost media was found, that is Pretty good Episode 4: The Night Stanislav Petrov saved all our butts, by the great Documentarian Jon Bois:


I actually downloaded it just in case, there were a lot of media copyright strikes on it. As a person who still is intrigued by Russian things this is a good video. 

Anyways. Late last week I experienced he the worst headache ive had in a while, and It knocked me out for most of a day, and I could barely eat, My stomach didnt like me for a few days after that but I think i'm fine now.

In the video game world. My friend let me borrow the Metal gear solid collection and I played MGS1 and MGS2 (will probably play 3 and 4 after i'm done with Mass effect......maybe) But whoo boy MGS1 Does not age well. Targeting was terrible, boss fights were really unfair, and it was such a miserable slog. Story wasn't bad, but the final boss fight it took me 2 and a half hours across 2 days to defeat it. MGS2 was not as bad, mainly because I turned the difficulty down. Both however did not have the option to change difficulty in mid game which is beyond stupid.

In gatcha fun, I got a new healer type in HSR, who commands a big chonky unicorn (I sadly cant get a good picture of it so no luck there, maybe next month) and in that game i'm just doing standard HSR stuff, the anniversary is done, and there is a decent little event but i'm almost done with that, but now ZZZ's 1st year anniversary is coming up and 2.0 patch is coming up so i've been farming stuff for that, getting materials for my freebee S Rank unit (Hello Grace)  and my freebee W-Engine (Weapon) and i want the new character from 2.0. So just been farming stuff there. That comes out on the 4th I believe.

And now finally. A Major Quandary. 

As most everyone knows I have lost access to a vehicle and my everything sucks so its gonna be hard to get a car, but ive had some good friends to help ferry me around so it could be worse......

My friends Kids boyfriend who lives with him (I know that sounds like a fathers brothers nephews former roommate kind of thing) (Ive met the kid hes a decent kid, like 18-20 I dunno the exact age) has for no strings attached, even willing to pay for repairs, a 2004  Vehicle (one moment on that) I am seriously probably going to say no. There are a few legitimate reasons and one........ very very major psychological, that will be last.

The first and most important reason is, its a convertible. Ferrying my mom in the winter who can barely hold together in the winter with a convertible (Even with a top) is not a pleasant idea. She cant handle the cold with her COPD, and TBH i'm not a fan of cold either. 

Next is  its a sports car, which means higher insurance, my insurance just the basic when i had a car was like 35 bucks a month. (now I just pay like 20 to keep it active) im afraid that even a 2004 sports car the insurance would be a carp ton more. I'm also not a fan of sports cars, but that could get around it.

And now.... 

Its a Ford mustang.

Anyone who knows me well knows how much I abhor, disdain, and despise those cars. Why? Wild guess, it deals with my former sibling that I disowned him and he disowned me and my whole mom in a whole no u kind of thing in Late November. He had a 1966 one in the late 90s and it was one of the foundations of how things are now. He basically worshipped that car, got upset when I wanted him to drive me to school, basically he loved that  car more than me, and when it started to break down he blamed me for it breaking down. When it broke down permanently, i was happy. But because of that, I still feel bile, hatred and many other things when i see one even a modern one. So knowing that, if I took that car, every time I sat in it I would feel those bile feelings and I would hate myself because i'm sitting in a car that for me is almost as bad as a Tesla (for obvious different reasons) 

I know the two non psychological reasons are stronger than the psychological but.... TBH I dont know if i could ever get over myself if I would drive one (riding in one i could barely tolerate but yanno)

Ahem. Time for some Macaroni goofiness and a goofy meme.

Its a Macaboo.

He just needs to expand his thinking.


and this meme is me:

anyhop.  I will probably return in the middle of june with a top 10.. Books? Board games? Video games? Movies? TV shows? Something else? I dunno what yet, if someone has an idea let me know.

Toodles for now.

Keelah Se'lai.

Me.
