Iji is a good game! I quite enjoyed it.

IKR

Not much to add to that except that it has a ton of replayability/secrets, doesn't punish you for being violent or pacifist, and is very sad indeed at times.

i can't sleep

[Rolan7]

Yeah huh it's getting close to 4AM, how about that.  I thought I'd sleep better here at home, but I'm so glad to be with my computer again.  Sunless Sea woo woo!

(Though half the time was watching music videos and catching up on chats/posts.  Keyboards are the bestest.)

I've gotten so much better at ignoring all my problems, but that isn't going to make them go away.

Another one bites the dust!
Both famous person and someone I know. Hell, I might start believing in this cursed 2016 stuff. If only it went back a few months of 2015, and I'd be fucking sure.

[TheDarkStar]

Honestly, we're probably in for at least as many famous people dying this year as last year. Right now is when all the baby boomers are getting in that 65-70 year range where people start to die off, and there are a lot of famous baby boomers.

So Carrie Fisher suffered a heart attack midflight and is in critical condition.

Posted here because though I'm not emptionally invested I dont like people having health problems.

In the end she didn't make it. Not a complete surprise as things were looking grim by what little info was leaked.

EDIT:
Looking back, it's kind of a grim coincidence that both she and Peter Cushing were played by CGI in Rogue One

And now Debby Reynolds, CFs mother, has died as well...

That's just...They don't need that money.  Whyyy...

[Shadowlord]

Because capitalism! How dare you question the invisible hand of the market when it takes from you and gives to someone who already has more money they can ever spend!

NYE is just around the corner. Now, this is a far nicer and less-stressful holiday than Christmas, but this particular year I have three events/parties that I am supposed to be attending, and all of them I imagine would be most enjoyable. There are different friends going to all three of them, too.

Seems that no matter what I do, someone's going to be tragically deprived of my company... and I will miss out on opportunities for party times, new friendships and/or romance. And, all of these main options I have expressed at least some enthusiasm for to the friends attending.
Some of them, as far as I am aware, are fully expecting me to come along. Gaaah.

Are they within easy transport distance of one another?

My wife's uncle died yesterday. He never woke up of surgery. Don't know the details but it seems his lungs were necrosed or something. This fucking year has been the worst so far.

To top it all my car battery died and it will cost me arround two months of paychecks to replace it, so we are grounded at home. My wife is recovering from a tumor extraction surgery on her breast and with rampant insecurity and lack of cash (see the news for Venezuela's current cash crisis) public transport is a no-no.

So my mother offer us a ride to where the uncle's body is gonne be, only to arrive here with her husband and tell me she can only get us halfway and drop us there to get a cab or bus from there.

Only that they both knew I have no cash and the place where she is planing to drop us is the most dangerous in the route... so yeah thank you so much for nothing. If she had said they had things to do and couldn't give us a ride I would have understood. Why the need to say yes, only to change their mind and waste both their and our time.

[Yoink]

Are they within easy transport distance of one another?

Well, two of them are, but those both have paid entry and I'm not about to pay for two events when I'm barely going to see much of them.

I'm not even sure how to rank the three events in terms of importance. Ugh.
Although one of them might increase or decrease in such by then, who knows. Although then it might be too late to get a ticket to either!
...That would actually make my life a lot simpler, but then of course I would immediately realise that one of those was, in fact, the most vital event of my entire life and I was a fool to miss it.
