don't starve and other randomness

[orangerful]

My Librarian has survived 15 days now! Her sanity is always really low though, since she already knew everything to begin with it's hard to find stuff to invent to give her a boost and that's the only way I really know to increase sanity. She did manage to befriend two of the Pigs and they helped defend her when the wolves attacked on night 10. (I won't lie, I totally thought about killing them in their sleep to get their precious skins but decided they would be more helpful alive...for now) I did die once when her sanity dropped so low that one of the dark monster blobs attacked her. **tear** Haven't found another respawn stone yet.

In other news, Tim played for, like, the third time today and he found Maxwell's Door! WTF! I've never found the door before and he is just like "oh what's this?" He doesn't have the skillz like I do yet though so not sure how long he'll survive in there.

I watched the premiere of The Flash which was okay. I haven't watched a CW show in awhile and I forgot how PRETTY everyone is. Doesn't matter WHO you are on a CW show, you must be GORGEOUS in a very marketable way. I was also highly amused that the one geek was wearing Big Bang Theory t-shirts in two separate scenes. Did they originally try to sell this show to ABC? LOL.

OH OH and one of my librarian friends had her Facebook page DELETED by Facebook this week because she didn't use her "real name". Um, my Facebook name is currently "orangerful" yet no one has said anything to me. I'm really hoping they delete the page, I will rejoice in being free and I will never sign up again.

Watched the livestream of the Hannibal Paleyfest coverage which was fun and OMG it really made me miss that show. Started following the NBCHannibal tumblr to get a little fix which made me realize the library has yet to get season 2 on DVD! I have seen all the episodes but I NEED COMMENTARY! Especially since there is still no official premiere date for Season 3. **DIES**

Went to Kohls 3 times in the past week. First time was all for Tim and Sylvia. Second time I went to get some Kohls Cash earned. And today I went and spent said Kohls cash. I'm pretty much set for Fall/Winter clothes now, though I do desperately need a jacket and maybe some brown boots to go with the brown pants I bought.

Does anyone have a favorite site for jackets? I want to get another nice long warm peacoat and that covers my butt.

This post is getting long, I will save my American Horror Story thoughts for later. :)

I think I might check out The Flash. Been hearing good things about it!

The CW is definitely the go-to channel for eye candy. ;)

It makes me want to go back and pick up Arrow since it's apparently the same 'verse and Arrow's city is nearby (er...though I guess that is all relative if The Flash is running there?)

I highly recommend your local Goodwill for coats, I have a long wool coal and a long looks like a black version of David Tennant's Doctor Who Coat, and I got them both at the Goodwill for like ten dollars.

I'm super cheap.

Also now you understand my fears about keeping the librarian sane in winter.

I TOO OFTEN FEEL TORN BETWEEN KILLING PIG FRIENDS IN THEIR SLEEP, I mean come on, a girl needs armor to protect her brainmeats.

Aaaand right after I posted this, I got cocky and tried to attack some spiders and killed her. **sigh** I never learn! That's okay because she was going crazy. Just started a new game with the Strong Man who amuses me every time he says "The scary time is coming!"

In light of stuff like GamerGate and other incidences of online bullying, you'd think Facebook would understand why someone might want to use a fake name. Personally, I think it's ridiculous how ten years ago, if I admitted to using a fake name online people still thought I was putting myself in danger, but now people put their real details out there for the world to find, and sites like Facebook even want to discourage people from doing otherwise. I have two accounts - a real one, where I post mundane things for a general audience, and one with a fake name originally meant for fandomy stuff, but in general I post things I may not want my parents, boss, clients at work, or anyone else who knows me or knows of me to find.

... sorry for the rant, I know that was a really offhand comment.

No apology necessary!

The whole "fake" name vs "real" name is so stupid and it's all Facebook's fault for forcing it upon everyone so many years ago. Of course, when FB first launched it was EXCLUSIVELY for college students (er, well people with a .edu email address...which I still had even though I had graduated). Anyway, once it became open to everyone, they should have dropped that stupid policy. I don't have my real name up there anymore because of that very reason. Only site with my real name is LinkedIn. (It probably wouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who I am but it would take less time to attack someone who puts it all out there).

I'm REALLY curious about 'Ello now - they just signed some legal document promising never to sell user data OR sell ads on the site. Not sure how they plan to create enough revenue to stay afloat but I'm rooting for them.

I might have to check out The Flash - sounds good.

It's a good popcorn show. :)

Yeah, CW shows are distracting that way, people just dont' look like that.
