@wojtekpow @michaelharley @enocc here's a respond against this, it wasn't caused by it, but it fits like a glove.
I had never written more than a paragraph of English when I started in 2021. Not even a paragraph of Spanish unless it was school homework (and I didn't study writing) or notes for an lecture, never for creativity or expression (perhaps a letter once or twice)
I am not asking for quality, I am not asking for polish. I don't need writing to be skillful, I don't need it to be well crafted, or structured
I want it to be human, I want it to be yours.
When I type this I don't do it angry or with a gotcha, it genuinely makes me cry, I want people to learn that as confusing and unclear your thoughts are, they are so valuable, they are beautiful, they don't need any more, you will learn as you go.
I look back at my own older posts and I find many errors and things I'd change.
I look back at my latest writing and I find many errors, and things I'd change.
It's okay to not be perfect, nobody asked for that

@amin sure but we ain't talking about your problem, I do agree maybe dm's wife would be more willing to stop using it with this as an argument? But then again I doubt it

Today was the first time I actually reached my YouTube limit in the whole week, it was only because of a podcast while I was mopping the floor and cleaning the whole house (should have used AntennaPod for that!)Had an outdoor BBQ for lunch and had some friends come over too!Later in the evening I went out with my church's youth group for a coffee, had a fun time!

#3GoodThings (yesterday cuz I fell asleep)

I forgot my #3GoodThings for yesterday!
I have understanding friends who didn't push me to be too social when I wasn't feeling wellI had some boneless chicken again and it was so good and actually from another place, cheaper too!Woke up super early and made an 88x31 button for a friend! I need to make more buttons for friends, and pixel bears too...
Happy Easter you all!
I've been reading Job through the last couple of weeks, and it has been eye-opening. I haven't read the Bible like this in literal years. This verse absolutely got me to tears:
But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives,
and he will stand upon the earth at last.
And after my body has decayed,
yet in my body I will see God!
I will see him for myself.
Yes, I will see him with my own eyes.
I am overwhelmed at the thought!
— Job 19:25-27

Worked from home today! It was a very chill time thankfully and most of my meetings were cancelled lolWatched The Day The Earth Stood Still and I was very impressed by how well it holds up. I thought I'd hate that the alien is basically just a human from space, but on the contrary. A really enjoyable film.Made an 88x31 button and put it on my website, I love pixelart :P

#3GoodThings (two days ago rip my memory)
I bought and started The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le GuinI reached another level of the dungeon in Final Fantasy IVNew episode of Into The Aether all about Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave
Got the itch to get a bike
Remembered I do already have a bike
Went looking for it inside our garage
It was full very dusty, and there were a lot of things in the way
Managed to get it out of there
Cleaned it up a bit rinsing it with water
Dried it and finished things up with an old rag
Noticed the wheels were deflated and kinda ruined
Walked to a tire repair shop with the bike to see if they can fix
The tire repair shop was closed, returned home to leave the bike
Went to walmart to buy a bike pump
Chose a cheap one instead of a good one
The tires didn't inflate at all, idk if it's the pump or if they're damaged
Checked on marketplace to see if there's some bikes out there
There were also some bikes at walmart...
Now I'm considering to get the better pump and try again
Or going to a bike repair place instead.
Or just buying a new bike since the wheels are 23 inch and I kinda want 26+ wheels
There were two funerals this week, even when none of them were close to me or my family, we go to support friends and their family.
Time is short, tell your loved ones that you love them...

Created a background based on #Arcticons inspired by the pattern of my website! For my #xteink!
Pretty happy with it :P
