It would definitely be a good method!

I think A LOT of fire would be involved if that was ever the case.

Smartphones. More accurately, the overzealous usage and dependence on them. Most I have is a dumb phone (although it technically counts as a smartphone). It sits in the drawer of my desk until needed for security code verifications. Then it goes straight back in my drawer. When I step away from my computer, I actually want to have stepped away from it and not be carrying a smaller version of it with me.

My entire house is second hand, considering that I inherited it.

I live in a small village in the middle of nowhere and don't drive, so I order stuff online for convenience. Although, I do have a store that's just a two minute walk from me where I get the odd grocery item or two. I don't like to use it for my main grocery shopping because the prices are a rip off.

For the year to end so that I can unleash all my plans for 2026.

Stuffing my face with trail mix.

Mine usually just gets stockpiled, unless there are some clothes or shoes that I really-really like and must have.

A bag of trail mix.

A freezing cold glass of water.

The Everfree Forest.

I have a few that are my favourites right now. Not because they are outright scary, but rather because they pretty much do horror storytelling right and have depth to that storytelling as well. They're also just made in a top down RPG maker of some description. No over the top flashy graphics and just use what is necessary to tell a story and offer an experience. The games are Ib, Misao, Mad Father and The Witch's House. They all focus on exploration and puzzle solving in terms of game play as well as surviving whatever they throw at you. Ib You play a little girl that visits an art gallery, that soon finds herself in a more cursed version of that gallery. The art pieces either serve as part of the puzzles, offering clues to progressing throughout the gallery in search of a way out. Or they serve as hostile entities that are out to harm you. So expect to be chased around in a dark room by crawling portraits hanging out of their frames. It doesn't rely on blood and gore, but instead focuses on the basic fear of uneasiness and the unknown. The antagonist is also complex as it isn't outright evil. I really wanted to see the antagonist get their wish, because I found them relatable. The Witch's House Now this one is definitely a change of pace in terms of horror as there are ways to meet many horrible and bloody fates. In this one, you play as a young girl venturing into a house in the woods that belongs to a witch and as you would expect, is cursed with all sorts of horrors. The things where you can meet your demise, can range from your average perils to the strange and disturbing. Also, the story has an interesting twist, depending on a certain item you obtain before the ending. Misao This one has more story depth to it. It revolves around a high school girl named Misao who goes missing and curses her school. You play as one of her classmates who wants to find Misao and help her. It touches on subjects of extreme bullying and you learn more about what Misao went through and what the others did to her. It all leads to a rather disturbing turn of events as you learn her whole story and what happened. You're not too heavily pursued by threats in this game, but the setting is a massive threat of it's own as interacting with anything remotely innocent leave you meeting a horrible fate in some way. Some bloody and some disturbing and weird. But you do get an achievement list of all the deaths you "collect". So if you're not afraid of the morbid, it can be fun to see what horrible ends you can meet. Mad Father From the same creator as Misao and with some connected lore to Misao that doesn't affect the story or gameplay as such, but is a pretty big Easter Egg. In this one, you play a little girl in Germany who lived with her mother and father. A perfect little happy family living in a mansion filled with dolls of all sizes. However, the father, who is a scientist is always shut away in the basement within his laboratory, the daughter, completely oblivious to what he does in there. Additionally, things aren't as happy in the family as they may seem. The father is having an affair with his assistant and the mother knows of it. At some point, the mother had passed away and later, a curse is placed on the mansion. The dolls that fill the mansion come to life and become hostile. The game revolves you playing as the little girl, exploring the mansion and her father's laboratory with the objective of saving him. But as you progress, you discover a lot of disturbing truths about the father's work. So yeah. I definitely recommend these if you like classic horror storytelling, exploration and puzzle solving.

Misfits, oddballs, outcasts, eccentrics... You know. Awesome people.

I feel that they don't really matter.

I used to identify as bisexual. But these days, it's more accurate to say that I'm pansexual.

It can sometimes leave me between two extremes. One is a feeling of utter disappointment and pity. The other extreme is the need to smack the world over the head repeatedly with two cafeteria trays.

Pretty much this.

"Shower repair means playing with something that combines both water Lego and electricity."

Seeing as it's now December and to get myself into the Christmas spirit, I'm currently listening to a Halloween mix of Touhou song remixes from the year 2013.

"After spending years having to pretend to be a guy, I'm also now finding it hard to keep up pretending to be a human as well."

My axe.

I always go out of my way to be friendly. But I'm a complete sadist towards evil people.

Bourbon cream biscuits. Because I haven't been bothered to make breakfast yet.

In terms of acting, because they can be fun roles to play. In the terms of the more real. It can be a case of one person's hero being another person's villain. But if we're going with villain in the sense of a morally bankrupt, corrupted, principles free individual, then I have no idea why anyone would choose that as a conscious decision. The only people that seem to go down that road are people who have no conscience and way too much ambition.

Colder than a penguin's backside.
