Doodling a bit!! Taking a break from homework… !

Wow! That’s awesome! I’m so glad to see you’re doing so much. Y’know, Discord is just a successor to things like AIM, MSN, and Skype. I don’t blame you for that. Show me your cooking sometimes! I’m super curious now. -
OH MY GOD The Gym Leader ponies look awesome! I love the way you designed Sabrina!

Are you a morning pony or a night pony?
mistrene replied to Snoopy Fan's topic in General Discussion
Definitely a morning pony! I love taking it easy at night and read a book or watch a movie and fall asleep early. The sunrise gives me so much energy!! -
You’re right! It definitely isn’t easy, especially considering everyone messages through Whatsapp, Discord and social media. It’s tough not staying in contact with friends, amazing artists and potential friends! I’m really happy to hear you’re trying to manage your productivity though. Have you made any discoveries in that time, like new hobbies? Really? What about them annoyed you? Was it the physical design or rather the way it functioned? Smartphones not only rapidly spread in use but also in design! I find it really annoying how quickly the compatibility decreases with networks since they keep changing them. My former Samsung was a 2019 model and completely unusable outside of my country, forcing me to buy an iPhone purely to be able to CALL my parents worldwide! Which one do you use and how to they hold up now? Some amazing phones sadly stopped working since most countries got rid of 2G and 3G. 3G still available in my country until 2026, it’s so tempting to buy a Sony Ericsson… Some other feature phone models are either very poor Android phones or have a worse quality build like Nokia/HMD.

I’m quite curious if anyone else has made that change in their lifestyle where you’d rather not use a smartphone at all. I stopped using social media and websites where my personal art and data will surely be used, like X and DeviantArt. All the targeted ads and algorithms really felt dystopian to see. I think my boiling point was January. At some points, streaming services really made me unhappy about their prices and quality of their services. I am so tempted to switch back to a Sony Ericsson or Motorola RAZR since 3G networks in my country are still active with my provider till next year. That might be me moreso wanting to relive a time long gone, though. For now, I merely have Whatsapp and my bank on my iPhone. I got an iPod and have been ripping all my CDs and DVDs for portability and preservation. Have you made any changes like these, whether it’s online or physical hardware? Or not? I’d love to know your experience!

Thinking about dinner while on my way back home from work.. (drooling)

gosh!! i really haven’t been active here anymore! i’ve been so busy with everything in life!!
i’ve been keeping up with college! i got accepted at a really awesome internship and my workplace has been so respectful and helpful to me all the time!
besides that, i’ve been going through some things medically and have been diagnosed with different physical disorders and allergies that do impact my functioning in daily life. it’s not fun, but i’m just relieved that these things can be treated and symptoms will mostly be minimized through a healthy lifestyle.
i moved places as well! my family and i went through a big move and its all back to square one, but the environment is just what we needed. we live along a big river!
what else.. i got rid of all my social media and kept my online presence to what makes me happy!
my creativity plummeted for so long and i felt so much frustration dealing with algorithms and being glued to my phone scrolling. thats why i got rid of everything and focused my attention on building my own website. i got AIM and MSN through the Escargot/NINA project and made a few friends who feel the same way. after i’m done with my internship, i’ll switch to a feature phone.
i got an ipod as well and got rid of streaming services. i’m so glad i’ve always loved collecting and preserving physical media! i’m slowly but surely getting my creativity back and i ten times better mentally.
and of course my love for mlp never withers or changes. so i’d love to find time to post and peek here again. i’m so sorry for not thanking everyone who left these super sweet birthday wishes last year, i saw them all recently and felt so giddy and warm! just the idea of leaving a sweet message to someone (even though you might not know them) since the site tells you it’s their birthday, is a very thoughtful community to me. thank you! lots of love from mimi
(have a cute snoopy drink my friend ordered recently) 🐾
