September 22nd, 2022.

A few, although I absolutely cannot stand here and pretend I'm fluent in all of them because that would be a lie. I'm very fluent in Spanish, obviously, since it's my first language, and English, which I started learning around 12 because apparently being permanently exposed to the internet was enough of a curriculum. Japanese is probably sitting somewhere around 40% fluency, although that percentage becomes spiritually inaccurate the second I have to actually speak like a normal human being. I sometimes still need a translator because I want to sound a little less formal and Japanese has about 700 different ways to accidentally sound like I'm submitting a government document. I've been studying it on and off since 2019, so at this point me and Japanese have a complicated custody arrangement.

Quite entertaining, I must admit.

So, you know how The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on the Nintendo 64 looks? Like, pure low-quality polygons and textures. Everything is just aggressively polygonal. The polys look a little sharp. Nothing is smooth. Everything looks like it could cut you if rendered at the wrong angle. That is basically how my entire day felt. You know when a bee is flying around you and you're just standing there thinking "okay, whatever, you exist, I exist, let's keep it that way", because the SECOND you bother it, suddenly it's defensive and now you're getting stung. Other than that, it wasn't a bad day.

Only if you want your PC to catch every virus created since 1998 in under 5 seconds.

Usually my own brain starts the wars. Maybe all of them. I am perpetually engaged in an internal armed conflict with myself, but thankfully the whole thing is aesthetically pleasing, so I have decided this constitutes personal growth. Because I am not currently participating in an actual war, and because the battlefield is therefore confined to the largely unregulated territory of my own skull, I have decided to phenomenologically inflate the situation until it acquires historical significance. Recently, I initiated a screenshot-and-sentence war against a girl who appears to have been spiritually possessed by the cumulative consequences of studying too much of whatever the fuck she studies. I am currently seated at the metaphorical trench, awaiting enemy movement. The problem is that I have accumulated an unreasonable quantity of bombs with distorted geometry, alongside Thompson M1A1 submachine guns, Lanchester Mk I guns, and the Rifle, Caliber .30, Automatic, Browning, M1918, all of which have been undergoing an increasingly severe ontological degradation in my possession. They no longer resemble weapons so much as unfinished polygonal assets from a video game that was abandoned halfway through development. Some have become blurry triangles. Some are merely geometric implications of violence. I have been collecting these things for a while. I can feel that something is going to happen. She knows I know she knows. She is hiding because she understands, at least at some level of her fragmented self-concept, that she occupies the phenomenological position of the enemy. She has her own reasons. Psychotic? Perhaps. Demons? Potentially. But the important distinction is that she manifested the demons herself, which makes this less of a supernatural incident and more of an accountability issue. She presents herself as morally good, but unfortunately morality still exists on Neocities. You cannot simply transcend ethics because you put a glitter GIF next to your DNI. Anyway, I ate sushi yesterday. And then I ate sushi again this morning for breakfast. It tastes extremely good after being removed from the refrigerator and left outside for approximately 20 minutes. I want more. I am experiencing a completely unrelated but nevertheless urgent craving for additional sushi. I have beef with sweet flavors.

Even though the specs are good, the fact that a 4 year old computer has fans running so loudly suggests that the laptop may no longer be able to handle it. If you want a computer to livestream with a VTuber avatar, you actually need to carefully choose the specs. VTubing is a massive resource hog. Your computer has to run a game, track your face, animate a 2D or 3D avatar and broadcast the video to Twitch, YouTube or any livestreaming platform. All of that at the same time, so yes, your laptop is going to die like that, especially considering it's 4 years old. I'd recommend for you to buy a computer tower, it's million times better than a laptop. The cons? It's not portable but who gives a shit. A computer tower won't overheat during long streams and you can easily plug in a second monitor, which you definitely need so you can see your game on one screen and your stream chat/OBS software on the other. So, you should look for: - Graphics Card (GPU): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 or RTX 4060. Do not get an AMD card or basic integrated graphics. NVIDIA cards have a secret weapon called an NVENC encoder. This is a physical chip inside the card that handles the video streaming entirely on its own, so your stream stays crystal clear and your games don't lag. - Processor (CPU): Intel Core i5 (12th Gen or newer) or an AMD Ryzen 5 (7000 series or newer). - RAM: Definitely 32GB, 16GB is not bad but it is not recommended for everything you are going to do. - Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD. Avoid old-school hard drives completely. An SSD makes your computer turn on in 5 seconds, and your personal files, software, and games will load instantly. 1TB gives you plenty of space for your avatar files and games. The price of a complete setup (monitor, keyboard, mouse, headphones, etc.) would be around $1,300 if you are on a budget. This also depends on where you live, so prices may vary.

Well, since you're already here, you might as well ask. I'm not going to rip you apart like a pit bull for asking.

Tenga orgullo en eso papu.

I can't really say I have a favorite. I think "favorite" implies a kind of consistency in attachment that I don't necessarily have with artists.

You seem sus. But well, I don't really eat much or anything particularly consistent. My current meals usually consist of a single homemade burger (meat, cheese, ketchup, mustard) or me surviving off a single can of tuna with some mayo, some onions, and the blessings of whatever is keeping me alive because I don't eat over 1k calories. It's just too much of a chore to eat more than that nowadays.

Ironically, this is literally Atabook. I am on the paid tier, the Supporter Plan, which gives you the extremely dangerous privilege of adding your own HTML and customized CSS. You should try it. It's $5 every 3 months.

正直に言うと、まだ特にこれっていうのは決まってないんだけど、せっかくなら日本の本場のお菓子とか食べてみたいなって思ってる。海外向けにアレンジされたものだと、材料とかが変わってたりすることもあるし。 寿司とか辛いラーメンみたいなものは好きなんだけど、いわゆる「日本食といえばこれ」みたいなものだけじゃなくて、もっといろんなものを試してみたいんだよね。 そういえば言ったことあったか分からないけど、いつか実際に食べ比べできるようになったら、そのことをVlogにしたり、普通にブログに書いたりするのも考えてる。 いつか日本にも行って、スーパーとかで直接お菓子を買ってみたいとは思ってるんだけど、まあ、金銭的にはまだそこまで余裕がなくてね。 あと、日本語があまり上手じゃなくてごめんね。自分で書いたり、翻訳機を使ったりしながら組み合わせて書いてます。

Rest assured, they are not dead. I just needed to clear some mental storage because having seven thousand pieces of my former brain staring directly into my soul was not helping me organize my thoughts. The videos are not permanently deleted. I will be unprivating them, including the ones that have been sitting in the private containment zone for considerably longer than the recently sacrificed ones.
