Tiring like you wouldn't believe. Carrying an industrial-weight tripod and a back-pack full of batteries, XDCAM discs, and tons of emergency "yes officer we have permission to film here says so in this letter from the council" papers around London is a quick way to feel exhaustion like you've never felt before.

But that was really satisfying, you know?

Know what you mean.

I've got my lighting kit neatly packed in a briefcase, but it is the heaviest
*******
briefcase in the universe. Goodness knows what it must be like with pro stuff. Guess you got big shoulders for a duck.
 
Come on, phisheep, I've seen you swear before! Censoring is for chumps, you've got to commit to it or find some less colourful language.

...not to tell you what to do or anything. It's a pet peeve :/

$45 donated to the Torment: Tides of Numenera kickstarter, so I get a copy of Wasteland 2 when that gets released, as well. Very sound investment there, if you ask me.

Speaking of investments, I'm also really tempted by the Arma III alpha for £20. Been wanting to buy Arma II for ages, but going straight to the sequel seems like a plan, especially with the Minecraft approach of "buy while in alpha for cheap price". One thing holding me back is that I know I can't dedicate a lot of time to it right now, buuuuuuuut...

Briefcase, as in the singular? You're dogging it, phisheep.

In a northern hotel in the north. Very comfy bed, slightly overful. Free wifi is disappointingly patchy, no netflix for me this evening. Spiff then bed methinks!

I'm not entirely certain (as in not at all certain) what "dogging it" means. But I've got lovingly and carefully crammed in that single ordinary-looking briefcase two big strobes, four wireless remotes, a full set of replacement batteries, something like 17 different light mods, full set of filters, various clamps and so on to join the stuff to whatever other stuff happens to be around, umbrella mounts, diffusers, reflectors, mounts and bungees.

That's a lot of metal to carry around at my age.

Plus, the tripods and stands and the big reflector have to go over the other shoulder or I'll fall over.
 
Absolutely covered in sweat right now.

5 days a week at the gym is now going to be a thing.

5 consecutive days? Are you just doing cardio or weight lifting too? Good on you though, the feeling like you say after a solid gym session is fantastic, and motivates you in itself.

Just had a nice evening playing casual MTG. My Ravnica event deck actually did okay, so I was pleased with that. Wouldn't use it in a more competitive environment without some work though!

Not consecutive, but I'm going to try and go 5 days a week if I can. I'll probably use Monday and Thursday to rest next week, because I have those days off of uni. I stuck to cardio today and I probably will until my body is used to regular exercise. Babysteps.

Enjoy walking tomorrow/day after.

Oh, I will. Don't you worry, I will.

Ah fair enough. When you do add in weights just made sure to get in enough rest days!

So part 1 of trope 1 (Damsel in Distress) of Anita Sarkeesian's Tropes vs. Women series came out today.

It's amusing that she completely did everything the critics who criticised it before it was even out criticised it of is addressed - well researched, looks to media other than videogames, addresses games that use the trope but are still overall positive, isn't angry, irrational, or "prejudiced against men" or whatever the fuck that was meant to be a criticism of - yet people are still scrabbling to come up with new excuses about why this sucks to hide their own prejudices.

Will certainly watch the entirety of this series. Analysis and criticism such as this is the foundation of improving both art and social equality.
 
The other half made the mistake of not accepting my neutral (lie) answer to the question: what do I think of when I have a wank?

He's now sulking that I don't just think about porn and thinks it's damaging to the relationship. -.-

I never understand why people ask these questions in relationships.

If you're asking these questions, either you're pushing to hear that your OH just whacks off thinking about you or you're trying to start an argument.

What did you say you thought about? Or should I not ask?
