My Mom was in a really bad place while I was growing up and failed me and my siblings in a lot of ways that it took many years to correct, but she has since gone to therapy and has managed to get her life back together.
In my early twenties I didn't want anything to do with her, but we've mended things between us and we're a lot closer now. She's come around to being incredibly supportive and a great Mom. I love her.
Get Taco Bell and then put on a comfort show. Futurama, Scrubs, ans DragonBall Z Abridged are my classic choices, but watching old seasons of Game Changer has been a recent addition.
Very. I need to have a nice hotel with a clean and comfortable bed that I can retreat to. I'm autistic so I need a safe and comfortable space where I can recharge after an overwhelming and overstimulating day. A hotel isn't home, and it's no replacement for the familiarity of my own bed, but having the best possible room to myself where I can be comfortable to do my calming rituals is extremely important to make sure I don't crash out in the middle of my own vacation.
Bear in mind that that first burst of activity could be a false start from the undesirable bacteria that was present at the start. When I started my starter a few months ago I had what looked like activity for the first two days, and then it settled down. It took about three weeks before the starter grew strong enough to show consistent activity.
Hard to say without specifying the genre. I don't like most non-fiction, but I have found the occasional treasure. Most recently I reread Surely You Must Be Joking, Mr. Feynman, and that book is fantastic. Read it back in high school and it was a pleasure to revisit.
There is no recipe yet. I threw it together on vibes and made two major mistakes that I'll need to find a fix for before I can call it a recipe. Still came out really good, but I'm not satisfied that it's a working recipe yet.
Last Saturday I prepared a birthday dinner for my little sister.
She specifically requested my Spicy Chicken Egg Fried Rice for dinner as well as a "Sopapilla Cheesecake" for dessert.
I did not know what "Sopapilla Cheesecake" is, so naturally I searched for a recipe and was disappointed to find only recipes for "Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars".
I double checked with her, and she did clarify that she wanted the bars, but her request had already started the bug in my brain buzzing about what a proper Sopapilla Cheesecake would entail.
I made both for her.
I did a batch of the Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars per a good recipe I found, and then I pulled my own cheesecake recipe out and crammed the two together to make a proper Sopapilla Cheesecake just as I'd imagined it before I started searching. I also added a cinnamon honey ribbon through the cake because my best memories of eating Sopapillas as a child include drizzling honey over them before devouring.
Bright lights are bad, but they're nothing compared to having a fan actively moving air across me. I can feel every bit of turbulence and it's so distracting that it makes me want to stab something or tear my own skin off.
Now that it's Summer everyone and their mother at work wants to have a personal fan on their desk or use a shop fan on the floor to keep cool and when I have to work with them it's torture.
Played a 6P game on Saturday with all five new factions and Keleres. It was a lot of fun!
Firmament/Obsidian and Crimson Rebellion feel a bit undercooked, but the rest of the factions are great! Ral Nel and new Keleres both feel very well balanced relative to existing factions, Deepwrought is insane(ly fun), and Last Bastion is very much a snowball faction that starts weak but needs to be dealt with early or it gets very scary.

Yes. This.
As a trans girlie, shape-shifting is #1 on the list.
#2 is flight.

Neon colors are too bright and hurt my eyes. Pastel all the way, and especially the pastel goth aesthetic.
Do you have a pet?

Do you have a favorite scientist?

It's the best Cheesecake I ever made.
LEGO Bionicle.
I miss it.
Ditto. Wish I knew when I was a teenager. Should've done it in my 20s when I started realizing.

Last year when I made mayonnaise from scratch and succeeded on the first attempt I had to acknowledge that maybe I am good at cooking.
Air blowing over my skin is the worst.

I'd rather be hot and just drink more water.

The Witness just starts right back off at the beginning unless you figure out the secret ending.
Returnal does this with several of its "endings", but I haven't been spoiled on all endings so I can't say if it strictly fits.
One of Bastion's two endings is a global reset.
I Was a Teenage Exocolonist plays with this in some interesting ways.
Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2 both have maintain the status quo endings.
