Phew. (_ _)。゜ Okay, I am feeling better than I was yesterday. It didn't help that I was writing that late at night, ofc. But I also remembered that my doctor did recommend I up my anti-depressants/anxiety meds a little for the week I have PMS and now I do feel a bit better. Not, like, amazing, but functional. I didn't even cry at work today! So things are actually better on that front, now that my brain chemistry is less terrible. So I'm going to keep on working on making my pages more accessible for screen readers and we'll go from there uwu.

Good news, I got the Love Calculator game done. I based the code off this terrible old one, but a lot more complicated, including quadratic formulas for the results. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, even if stackoverflow seemed a bit horrified by my code.
Bad news, I'm having serious PMS bordering on PMDD and my job sucks super hard. I am so tired OTL. I do at least have a job interview on Friday, though! Anyway, I need to get to sleep (which is really hard, I always get serious insomnia for the week before my period). PCOS sucks so hard. But hormonal BC hasn't helped and I'd have to go to a gyno to get an IUD or implant, which I really don't want to do. The only one I can go to is the one I went to the last time. She treated me like I was lying the entire time when I told her I wasn't sexually active and had no plans to start. I'm also hesitant to try an IUD or implant because it'll be a lot harder to fix if I have a bad reaction to them... I hate feeling like this...

Finally got all my pixel shit updated! I mean, there'll be more pixels, especially of Marvel characters and, eventually, JoJo sprites, but the other pixel stuff I've had sitting around has finally been put up. I also finally made the relationship builder thing public-facing. I had the idea for a while now, but I wanted to wait until I had everything else together to put it out. Relationship Builder sounds sort of clunky-ish, but I couldn't think of something else that would fit. The Shirahime page I borrowed the idea from called it 'Coupling', but that seemed inaccurate. Like, the word "coupling" feels to me like it means specifically two people in a romantic and allosexual relationship. But I specifically wanted to include poly ships and qpr options. If you have a better name for it, email me and I'll probably change it.
I do also have an idea for a 'love tester' game type thing. I found an example of how not to do one a while back and I already have some ideas for how to tweak the incredibly bad formula from that to make it work in a consistent but interesting way. It's getting almost time to update my Top 10 Song Quiz page for the end of the year, as well. I am trying to eventually make this site more interactive, on the level of some of the older sites that I'm emulating my own after (to a degree- I do want to keep some more modern web design practices).
Christmas is also coming soon. I don't actually like Christmas and I only celebrate anything with it out of social obligation rather than liking it. I don't like receiving gifts, I hate the commercialism, I don't care about the Christian stuff, and I hate the music. I hate Christmas music (╬ಠ益ಠ). I've at least gotten gifts for other people mostly handled, but I'm also not able to do as much as I want because everything fucking costs too much and I'm so fucking tired all the time. Whatever.

Okay, so I didn't get a ton done on the site today. I have way too many pages to get through for adding basic navigation for screen readers... I did finish some pixel stuff that will go up probably tomorrow, so there's that, at least. Also, I did not do fantastic in that job interview on Monday, but I don't really feel too bad about it because it turned out the job I was interviewing for was a lot more public-facing than I thought it was from the description. My current job is exhausting and makes me miserable, but at least I don't have to talk to the public. And I mean, even when I was doing retail I was out of social energy by lunch each shift. I need to find a job where I don't have to talk to anyone... and that pays enough to afford my apartment (they're raising my rent by, like, 18% at the start of January ಥ_ಥ). I can afford that, but it's going to be hard.
Anyway, on a completely different note, does anyone else like to look at the code on sites? It's not all the pages on this site, but my pixel sprite page at least does have some commentary and stuff hidden in the source if you want to look 👀

Currently working on going through all the site and finally getting the html accessibility up to snuff. I am so, so sorry as to how long it's taken to everyone who uses a screen reader. Otherwise probably not going to be much for the next few days because I'm going to be pretty busy. At least I took Wednesday off, so that'll be a good day for site stuff.

I said I was making more Marvel chara sprites, and then got distracted making little sprites of all the Joestars... (￣▽￣)"
Oh well. I'll get back to those soon enough. In the meantime, I am hoping to maybe find a new job. My current one has become a fucken nightmare and while I like most other parts of it it's just becoming untenable to stay. Cross your fingers for me while I look! (Gd I hate job searching OTL)
I'm also (tentatively) opening requests for the little Sailor Moon: Another Story sprites. I mean, I don't know how many people, if any, are even reading these ramblings/care about sprites, but for now if you would like a sprite, send me an email? No guarantees that I'll make it, ofc- I prefer not to make sprites for series I'm not at least tangentially aware of and there are series where I might just say no because I personally dislike the series.
Also lol I just noticed that both my update log entries are within 5 minutes of each other. It's because 9 pm is an optimal site-editing time for me, but that is still sort of funny.

Figured I ought to make one of these at this point. As you might have noticed, I'm currently in a major sprite-making/spriting interest zone. If you know anyone else who's into the Sailor Moon: Another Story sprites or even others like the Tokimeki Girls' Side sprites (like my Hana Nono one), please, let me know! It seems like most of the sprite sites that make them died about 20 years ago TTnTT... Anyway, I plan on eventually making basically every Marvel character I'm familiar with. It's still going to be a ways off, ofc. There's so many charas to get to with that. I'm also eventually going to do more for other series I'm personally a fan of.
Also, if you like those little sprites (even if you don't make or collect them yourself), those aforementioned dead sites can be found on the Wayback Machine. They have tons of sprites for other stuff, too. I don't have them on my sprite page because I don't want to collect things for stuff I don't know and/or care about, but there's tons of sprites for other (very early 2000s) series like Rurouni Kenshin, American Idol, and Di Gi Charat among others. Start with «http://primadonna.fiyaa.com/»!
Other than that, I'll at some point in the (far, far distant) future get some pages about Marvel and other comics, but that's on the back burner for now. I'm also trying to remember to update some of the other pages relatively frequently, but I'm not great about that.
