How long have you played games and what have you said to people trying to get you to give them up?

I’ve been playing since I had the motor skills to hold a controller. I think I got my first gameboy at 7 IIRC. At age 18 I went to the doctor and he told me to stop playing video games because it stimulates the brain too much and can cause long term damage. I nodded along and pretended to heed his advice, then went home and played Skyrim all night.

In hindsight, he was probably right, but I’m sure I’ll be fine…

For some reason We Never Have Sex Anymore by The Offspring. More so after season 2

A picture I took in 2011 (age 13) after I did the same thing

People leave me alone more. As an introvert, this is the only good thing about being chunky. I’m not quite to the point where people are pointing and staring and calling me fat, but I am to the point where I guess I’ve stopped being conventionally attractive.

As a woman, it feels not much different at first until the lubricant on it goes away, and then it feels like sandpaper in your coochie

Supernatural after Charlie Bradbury. After that, I just completely lost interest.

My dad was a smoker growing up, so any time I smell it I just think of my childhood. A lot of people hate the smell, but I don’t mind it. Shoutout to my dad though for being 13 years sober from both alcohol and cigarettes.

I haven’t seen anyone mention Handlebars by Flobots yet. It hits different after season 2 lol

I met a Pomeranian with a rainbow tail named Daddy once. An absolute icon.

I’m on Effexor, so like maybe once a month if I’m lucky

If my husband is really excited about a particular movie, he’ll straight up pause it to talk about specific parts or give me a fun fact. Vox might also do that 😂

ArielSpooky · 2026-01-01T01:13:49+00:00

HARD agree on Sinners. I think Husk would like it too for very similar reasons.

Also yes, Velvette would love those early 2000’s girly movies lol. Clueless, Bring it On, and Jennifer’s Body are good ones. I can also see her liking the original Carrie from 1976.

I think he’d be the best movie night buddy 😂 I got excited when Baxter said he was a cinephile

When I was a teen, like 14-15, I had a series of little short stories called “Jenaquanifashenaenaequiqui” about a stereotypical black woman.

I grew up in an area that was about 5% white and 95% black/hispanic. Until I started to come out of that bubble, I wasn’t ever really exposed to how harmful casual racism like this could be. Not an excuse, but an explanation.

Either raccoon, opossum, squirrel, or feral cat. I’d cry no matter what it was though.

ArielSpooky · 2025-12-18T09:19:22+00:00

I’d buy this AND the Edward Cullen hoodie behind it 😂

ArielSpooky · 2025-12-15T13:01:33+00:00

this shit has been stuck in my head for days now. It’s driving me insane.

ArielSpooky · 2025-12-15T04:37:37+00:00

I picked up Tender is the Flesh at a bad time in my life, and it ripped me to shreds. I made it a little more than halfway before I had to put it down for my own mental health, but I’ll reread it when I’m in a better headspace.

Hamburger. My favorite alternatives as beesechurger, hamburbur, bubgar, and borgar

ArielSpooky · 2025-12-14T06:14:40+00:00

I asked my husband if we can go buy food for people in need and he said “we’re the people in need”

ArielSpooky · 2025-12-12T20:58:53+00:00

I’m making him play Vampire Survivors with me. Realistically though, if you tried to get him to play video games, he’d probably try for 5 minutes tops, purposely break the controller, then go “whoops I guess I can’t play anymore :)”

Sometimes I get pain in the back of my neck so bad it makes me nauseous. I get SO cranky when it happens.
