So the internet reminded me today that because I'm a white, cisgendered, straight, middle-class male, I have absolutely nothing to be proud of this month.
I read things. Pony things. Sometimes. I also have the literary ability of a drunken emu.
This really deserves to be seen by more people. Despite the potentially misleading title, this is not yet another "OC romances best princess" story. It's decidedly more classy than that. It's not long and it's not epic. It is usefully brief, a little melancholy, and poignant. It's a nice break from so many stories in the feature box as of late that just feel like they're trying too hard.
A friend of mine (the kind I can physically inflict my attentions on) asked me to try and find a ROM of the English release of Gyakuten Kenji 2 a.k.a. Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth: Prosecutor's Path for the Nintendo DS. His copy apparently crashes after the second case.
I just read over my last blog post, and anybody who actually knows me could tell you I was NOT in my normal headspace yesterday. Wow. Anyways, got a night's rest. Fitful as I managed to roll over wrong and pull a muscle just below my last rib. It spent the next couple hours cramping no matter how I shifted position or massaged it. But rest. and rest is good.
So! I've a friend. Well, I call them a friend. I've never actually met them. Probably for the best. So, "a friend" because "a hapless soul I've inflicted my attentions on" doesn't sound as nice or roll off the tongue as easily. Anyways, I generally drop them a note later in the evening asking what they've done that day in hopes of encouraging them to look after themselves. But that's a different story for a different pony to decide if they want to tell. But that I have this hapless soul
So... I've been watching the ads that pop up on the site here recently. Either Google got ahold of The Good DrugsTM, or I have a really weird digital footprint.
In the last two days I have seen ads for (among other things):
Furniture (general)
Sectional couch (specific)
Industrial tools (general)
Oil free vacuum pump (specific)
Specialty wrench for skateboards/scooters
Dating (not the 'strutting Pinkie Pie' one)
