u2 - how to dismantle an atomic bomb is a pretty mid album but I do appreciate the little "miss you sugar" hidden in the inner ring on the back of the CD

look I'm trying to see someone about my mental health but clearly sitting on my paperwork for several weeks straight before even reaching out about scheduling an appointment is way more important to them

thrifting for DVDs is interesting. sometimes you find that one movie that you watched growing up in 2006, sometimes you thumb past a few weirdo religious movies, sometimes you pick something up and realize that it's the pan-and-scan version that's kinda worthless now

idk. I'm bored. it's rainy and the sun is about to set I think. I'm going to walmart

social media profiles clearly marked as adults only and has a mature-content warning on her twitch streams. how is someone being a threat to children when they're literally telling minors not to be in their spaces
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
I keep getting this godforsaken "THIS PERSON IS A THREAT TO CHILDREN" video about a babyfur vtuber in my youtube "related" section and like. whatever man let people be cringe

@nelson bit of a self dunk here lol
but yeah I think this is true for any platform, the saturation of firstname lastnames just depends. over here you can and will see them if you post about tech one too many times and/or your post blows up

honestly I need to yearn at people a lot but I think I just annoy everyone in the process. sadge
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
I'm gonna be real I've probably slipped into some pretty crazy/confused sociopolitical ideologies because I'm super isolated and haven't really had any guidance outside of freaking out at people because I feel like the worst person ever

@ipg that being said 480p is a really good resolution for playback on a smartphone screen it turns out
💬 reply
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
@ipg yeah I have the original DVD of the matrix and it looks pretty okay when played back on my computer (though I don't really know what can do upscaling on my end)

like, blu-rays have been on the market for nearly 20 years. everyone has a TV that can at least do HD now, and if they don't then they're incredibly cheap. and yet DVDs still cling to life
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
as I slowly get deeper into the woods of physical media collecting I find it really funny how DVDs have managed to hang on for this long to the point where you can find movies from this year released in stunning 480p

ok actually. I want to make stuff but I've been feeling so unmotivated because nothing's encouraging me. so I just have thoughts of Things To Make At Some Point

eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
I think people used to encourage me to do this stuff but that isn't there anymore I'm just kind of tired
