Holy shit I knew the m.2 SSD format was small, but this is so tiny! I've seen 128MB thumbsticks as big as this, and yet it can pack a whopping terabyte of info on it! Hell, I could have gotten one that supported 2 terabytes!

Definitely the worst part of online friendships is the lack of shared silences. I'm perfectly content to sit with a friend and do nothing, just be in physical contact or even just be in the same room of them for long periods of time. And that simply doesn't occur online.

Sometimes I am will think of an online friend and want to spend time with them, but I have nothing to say, so I simply stare at their profile and think "if only the knew I appreciate them Right Now"

Aw yeah, looks like nearly everything for my new PC will be in by this weekend! I got a case fan, the UPS battery backup, and the thermal paste so far; Everything else except the case, power supply, graphics card, and the monitor will be in tomorrow, and the case and monitor come in Thursday! Still don't have an ETA on the PSU and GPU, but I can (hopefully) salvage my old PSU and GPU to at the very least get the whole thing set up until they do come in.

You know, for as much as I tend to go on about how dragons are and how much I love them, maybe I should have been a kobold :P

"Expected Delivery: 12/31"
"Updated Delivery: 12/30"
"Your delivery is going to get here a day early!"
1/2 and still no package >:C

Oops I almost forgot probably the single most important thing this build needs: a UPS! No not the brown truck, though I'll probably be seeing a few of those; a short term battery backup in the event of a power failure! I hope to have a longer term solution later, but I have plans that involve a pure sine inverter and 12 volts worth of golf cart batteries (and a battery charger.) I'll still need the UPS for an uninterrupted exchange of power

You know it's old because it's got a floppy drive, a parallel port, a VGA port, a couple ps/2 ports, AND a serial port. The parallel port and floppy drive alone should date it :P

Oh wow I discovered an OLD laptop I must have had during my college years? An HP Pavilion that came with Windows ME! No idea where the power cable went, but that can't be too difficult to get a replacement for

re: Nudity mention 

Whew, that was close! Was almost NOT nude to welcome in the new year! Literally as the last sock was coming off it rolled over to midnight where I am (I would have been ready but had to be out and about until shortly before midnight.) Time for me to enjoy some well earned sleep!

Deep thoughts with Kilroy 

Have you ever wondered what causes sleep to happen? Like what steps does your body have to take to actually enter sleep state? It's not like you can consciously will your body to sleep, like flipping a switch on a computer. It's clearly something that happens on a subconscious level, but what does it entail?

Nudity mention 

The classic furry twist on Happy New Year: Happy Nude Deer has me thinking... how awesome would it be for just one year to be a nude year? No clothes at all for a whole year? ...sad part is I'd have to wait 3 more years to take full advantage of that. Leap year means one more day of being naked to enjoy :D

Now comes the fun part: dumping all available funds into my credit card to recover from this over the next few months...

Welp, there goes $1,200 towards a new computer. Still have to pay for the video card and PSU (another $320 or so), but with any luck I'll have everything ready to install before the end of January! At long last my 10 year old machine will be replaced with newer technology! With potential to be upgraded beyond what it will have! Board I bought just needs a BIOS update to handle any new Ryzen CPUs that come out, as opposed to my current board which is maxed out (except on RAM, but that's old tech)

Hot diggity, I found... most of the missing components to my old gaming desktop! Still missing a mouse and keyboard, but I've got the receiver (and xbox controller receiver) plugged into a USB hub so I can just swap that between laptop and desktop as needed. And it still runs! Only problem is... half my games aren't working right due to needing internet to verify games are a valid install for some reason. ...and this thing is ethernet only. With the only network jacks 1 floor down on the router.

Question for the instance (or others!) If I were to replace my desktop, would this be a decent build? pcpartpicker.com/list/pQQgZZ I'm not looking to run ultra high graphics stuff, but still want to at least be able to play games with decent visuals

Aw nuts the only device I own that can run GTA V is a desktop that needs serious updating (and a keyboard/mouse that hasn't been salvaged for a laptop)

Hypnosis 

Thoughts of being wrapped up in the coils of a big fluffy noodle dragon as it uses hypnosis on me to make me temporarily forget everything except the dragon, how soft and warm and welcoming it is. Nothing else matters except for how comfortable I am, so relaxed I could even fall asleep. The world can wait, my troubles can wait, all that matters is the dragon's warm embrace.

Fuck do I need something like that.

Food 

Oof that meatloaf I had turned out to be at least 50% pork sausage. I love sausage, but that turned out to be a LOT of sausage, and I need something to wash that all down with. Milk or coffee or something other than water.
