Today was alright, minus the fact that my fiance had to go into work early, so no goodbye hugs because I was asleep-
I also have a splinter in the corner of my nail so it hurts to use my middle finger for typing. Other than that things are really swell! My cucumbers are spourted, so is the sweat sugar snap peas... My tomato plant has some sort of disease or blight sadly that is transmitted in the air, so it wont make it. You can only treat it appaerently but cant cure it. My little fur baby tried ot eat my phone charger too lol

Also I totally need to better organize my stuff too XD

We've been organising by who in the system wants or likes what, plus some extra tabs between everyone's names, to prevent lag/crashing if somebody goes to look at the tab, but it's getting mighty confusing. XD Might need to forgo the 'organised by who collects what' method in favour of more organisation per species/event type/etc.!

It probably doesn't make much sense to anybody who isn't plural but we like having individualised tabs per system member, because several of us participate and play. :)

I can understand, I had an uncle who was the same way, but with his art.
And a coworker (and my bestfriend) organized their pokemon cards that way too

I'll be going to sleep in a bit (it's midnight here >- <), but I just feel like putting this here to get it out of my system.
I've been planning a modded Minecraft run lately with Pixelmon and various other mods (something tells me my laptop will not like me for this... I got a decent cooling pad today, but gaming laptops are still laptops and laptops have nonexistent ventilation.), and I'm taking suggestions for things to add into the run. My planned version is forge on 1.16.5, and I would prefer to keep API/technical mods at a minimum, but other than that any kind of mod can be suggested (Content, QoL, visual touches (I love visual touches a lot, tbh), etc).
I might eventually have to look into getting a proper gaming PC, because like I said, laptops have nonexistent ventilation and with how I sometimes play pretty resource-intensive games (I think the heaviest right now on my laptop is Genshin Impact, though I don't play that much; I'm expecting heavily modded minecraft with a self-made datapack (if I can get that figured out, that is) to be Not Fun for the fans in this thing), the charger is just plugged in almost all the time and I often split up longer sessions (especially in Starbound; my laptop does not seem to like my giant work-in-progress base there, so whenever I'm working on that I split the building session up to let it cool off every once in a while) just so I don't risk losing data or ending up with a corrupted file (I admit I really don't have a very good habit of making backups at the moment, I almost always forget to do it even though I aim to do it at least once a month, keeping a few of the older backups as well).

Hoping to draw a character or two tomorrow, and will be making a small sprite as well, looking forward to it!

I have a little of everything - tabs for my magi characters (plus allies and one location), tabs for creature armies, one lone themed tab, tabs for things that get bred, and a tab labeled "Stuff." It's not consistent, but it works. What I really need to do is (re)name creatures, now that renaming costs have been so drastically reduced. For anyone needing a random name generator, this one is good - http://www.rinkworks.com/namegen/ .

We use this one too!! :D It generated our username to begin with, so it feels fitting. All our critters get random names now.

That might be helpful to me, too, thanks. I rarely name my creatures anymore, there's so many.
