uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

yeah honestly my brainbox has been kinda garbo for a while. bpd is insane. youll have a full productive day working on projects and giggling and chatting on call with your friends about pervert tgirl fetish shit like in that that fucking plato and aristotle pic and the moment i hit disconnect i fele so lonely i wanna rip my heart out. i have plushies. so so so many plushies. i love my plushies. they love me back.

ive been really busy cause keeping myself busy helps my brain feel good. slime feet is on steam now. at least the store profile was approved and were still working on the builds as i need katie to help me through the non-windows stuff and build distributians and achievements and......theres a lot that goes into making a game, alright? renpy is good. everyone should remember how good renpy is and not take it for granted. and thank katie for being amazing to help me out like things



slime feet is a very personal game to me. idk if its weird to like point that out given that all my games are, but this one is even more. so i hope more people get to see it and connect. so if you cried or came because of slime feet that means those fluids belong to me and you need to do what i want and a i want you to wishlish slime feet on steam and share it with your friends and family(incest)

first pic was my qwerty writing 3 months ago and the second is me writing dvorak style today. this is a huge update. like there is no rush. my accuracy is low cause im hitting the wrong keys. keys i dont need to hit. and then i have to go back and fix. my wpm used to be like 100+ before my hand issues started and i never slowed down. bad combination to have. this was a huge motivation to learn touch typing at the same time as i did dvorak to get rid of these bad habits and learn writing from scratch.

on keybdr which is the site i used to train ive gotten up to 80 wpm when writing simpler words. its neat. i swapped full time couple months ago and i feel like im already at a writing speed comparable to my old one. fuck qwerty. and even if i am writing slower, in a way its just better for my hands since i write slower and calmer and have less typos

touch typing is so good. like. its just so much more comfortable. instead of using few of my finger and moving my hands around a lot, now i rest my hands in place on the homerow and touch type which reduces strain since all my fingers are used



originally when i saw this i was just stunned. qwerty relaly is just fucking random. dvorak is DESIGNED for touch typing and all the most frequent letters are played in the homerow and in easy to press locations. i have also bought pink linear switches which means it takes less force for a key to activate so i can press gentler



sorry i dont have a hd clean blender render quality type keyboard pic like everyone seems to have on r slash mechanichalkeyboards. im a girl

outside of seeking out quiet switches because im autistic about sounds of even my own keyboard, the biggest change here is that my left thumb has enter and my right thumb have backspace (and index finger delete). like what the fuck default layout had me constantly rearching my fucking pinky for backspace constantly is INSANE?? no wonder my hands hurt ugh (thats the location of my capslock key rn btw.) i also moved shift to the caps lock buttons location since that's a more comfortable and bigger key to press. the angled alice layout is comfy too



I've shuffled some special characters around since the standard nordic layout looks very different than US ones so i was already learning even the special characters, so i decided to relocate everything based on how often i actually use them

the biggest issue with adopting dvorak is that all the software keyboard shortcuts are designed for qwerty. like hitting ctrl+c and ctrl+v is in insane locations right now for me. but i made a keyboard layer modifier so i can hit a key and temporarily rearrange my keyboard back to qwerty so i can just use muscle memory to hit copy and paste etc.

i also have macros like if i press alt+< it will print out <> and move my cursor inside the brackets to make coding easier. this works for all ""(){}[]. but also stuff like if i hit the macro key (the one beneath my left shift) macro+c prints out nvl clear or macro+x splits a renpy dialogue in half

even if dvorak is designed for english writing, i occassionally, fortunately rarely, have to write finnish. ä and ö. i think it was a cute idea to add the faint umlauts like i did for the keycaps.. heh

basically I've made a handful of small but helpful changes for myself that all contribute to leads strain on my hands which is not only useful but also fun to tinker with. my keyboard is cute. and its mine. mine mine mine mine

hopeless junction remake

hopere is going fine. im basically done with sorting out all the writing. i wrote couple additional scenes. made the ero ones hornier. smoothing out soem edges in the writing. i try to avoid biting my own ass and being consumed by THE OUROSBOROS OF PERFECTIONISM. anyway, now i just gotta finish up the art. and then clean up the ui. and then do all the other fuccken things you need to complete a game. if theres one thing ive learned is that remaking games is insane. in the time it has taken me to remake this i couldve made 3 new ones.. its juts so differenth "fixing" stuff than "creating" and i rather do the latter.

i have my next game imperfect preparation, malmaid prequel already fully planned out. looking forward to start that.

anyway,

hopere is going to be amazing. i feel really good abaout it. and i got time.
