I'll continue to look around more what distro (whatever the fuck that means) is best applicable for either device.

The one I'm most concerned about is my laptop: a surface pro. I use both of the cameras and the touchscreen function quite often, and I use the laptop for a lot of productive tasks. 🤞🏻

Right after this semester ends, I'm switching my laptop and gaming PC to linux. Here's to hoping it'll be a smooth transition. My only experience with Linux, and it's very limited after 3+ years, is SteamOS on the steam deck.

Potential distros I'll use:
Bazzite for Gaming PC
Mint for laptop.

Welp, I'm back at looking for a new job.

I ordered more yarn 😅 I'm currently crocheting a blanket using a modified linked double crochet stitch. I'm hoping that crocheting this project will help me gain the patience I need to move forward with other projects. The reason I stopped crocheting for a little bit last year is because of patience

I was assigned to do a streamlined presentation of a chapter for my grammar class...

Only to find out, when I'm almost done with my current presentation, that I was doing the absolutely WRONG chapter 😩

Thankfully, the chapter I was originally assigned is similar to what I was working on right now.

If there is ever a sequel to MK1, kameo needs to be scrapped and no longer implemented.

I'm low-key tempted to play online mk1 with the name NoKameo or something similar and immediately forfeit the match if an opponent uses it 🤷🏻 that's how much I hate that system.

I remembered MK1 then I remembered about the stupid kameo system and now I'm pissed again 😂

I hate that system so much. It should've been an option to disable it from launch. I enjoy the fighting and the art style is pretty nice but I DESPISE kameo so much. It's the sole reason why I dropped it.

I still plan on teaching in the Fall if they still want me to teach, though. The main thing I want to do is help people understand the technical complexities of the language.

Ive been out of the town helping family and Ive been the most calm and relaxed since the end of November. I can confidently focus on my studies and improve my Iñupiaq. I think after a few big events that are in the works, I'll provide my resignation letter. I can't be constantly frustrated right now

I'm honestly having such a difficult time trying to commit to my job after this entire ordeal. I want to keep this position because it pertains to what I love and the pay is really nice, but things are slowly piling up that I'm just getting frustrated with the position.

I know I COULD do my own thing and charge people to learn, but the sole reason why I want to teach specifically through the tribal college is because language courses are tuition-free for students and the instructors still get paid. It's the best of both worlds for the students and the instructor.

Right now, I'm taking the opportunity at my current position to focus on the language.

I'm waiting to start contracted work to entirely focus on the language, so I'm very excited about that, tbh! Ultimately, though, I want to teach the grammar aspect of the language.

I'll still teach Part 1 if it's offered in the Fall, but I'll remain bitter and distant to the department that did the interviewing. I expected much more from such an institution, and that was an error on my end to be hopeful.

I broke down when I was told part 1 wasn't going to be offered because I genuinely felt like a failure of not being able to push the language more. It's 100% needed.

A tribal college, at the end of the day, is a college. It's an academic institution. Bureaucratic processes seem to be top priority.

I advocated for weeks during and after the interview to teach part 1 of grammar but the department interviewing me did not want to offer part 1 in the Spring.

I took Part 1 when I started my grammar journey and all I wanted was to offer that same chance to others as well. But nope, they don't care.

I really wish it was possible to teach Iñupiaq grammar this semester but bureaucratic bullshit must be a top priority rather than lengthening the lifespan of an endangered language...

I'm having a hard time staying committed to my current position right now. I just want to teach Iñupiaq grammar.

I kinda want to get into streaming just so I have a reason to play my extensive backlog of video games.

Oh shit it's been a couple months since I posted anything on here. I should maybe get back to using this app 😅

I've been primarily watching KBLs lately but I've been dabbling a little bit in other regions.

Since it's been just over a year since I gotten into BLs, I want to do a rewatch of my first BL (and also first JBL), Cherry Magic, to commemorate getting into this genre.

Yessss I do! I'm actually watching My Secret Vampire at the moment. It's a KBL on Iqiyi. Also some BLs on YouTube as well. Occasionally, I'll rewatch a BL I've seen a small handful of times.

I'm also trying to get through Old Fashioned Cupcake but Viki is being a bit weird on my tablet.

I genuinely think that this might be such an important thing for other adult learners to know, maybe. Idk. It's just how specifically my brain works and I only hope that the way I'm approaching Iñupiaq as an adult may be the best approach for other adults wanting to learn/relearn Iñupiatun.

One of the major things I had to grapple with in regards to learning Iñupiatun as an adult is essentially becoming what I call a "mini-linguist" to understand the complex grammar and rules of Iñupiaq. After I learned the grammatical aspect of the language, I'm able to understand it more.

Totally forgot about this app lol

I've just been busy being productive and occasionally watching BLs 😅

One of the things I was doing was putting Iñupiaq grammar graphs together, and that has been really fun.

I'm really hoping that the 12 x 18 linen paper can be shipped from another website. I've been wanting to create Iñupiaq playing cards for years.

Omg the paper I ordered to do bookbinding came in but I can pick them up until tomorrow 😩

I wanna print and bind some PDF documents I have on hand RIGHT NOW.

I bought 2 reams of short grain 11 x 17 paper, and 1 ream of long grain 11 x 17 that will be cut in half for short grain 8.5 x 11.

Maybe people don't care nowadays, but I can't shake the homophobia I heard growing up.

I know the motions and songs, that's for sure. I just won't dance them in front of people.

Idk, growing up as a queer Native in the rural village is an experience. Doesnt help that a lot of people know my family

I only made one exception (at least in my community) and it was for my mom this year as it was her last year to dance at Kivgiq. My anxiety was absolutely through the roof and knew I was never going to dance in front of many people again.

Im slowly getting comfortable with being active in some way, but one thing I can never do on a regular basis is aġġi in front of large people. It might be me making a major assumption but people may expect me to dance like a man because I am seen as one but I prefer to dance like women. Always have

Huge part of me wish I didnt seclude myself from my community and, by extension, my culture. But a part of me also knew that it had to be done in order to protect myself while I grew up queer in the village. Things may seem to progress now, but the things Ive heard growing up terrified me to my core

I desperately need a season two of Semantic Error. PLEASE 😩 I need Chu Sangwoo and Jang Jaeyeong back on my screen.

With that said, I'd love to see a special episode of Secret Relationships that showcases the domestic life of Da-on and Seonghyeon. Just a couple minutes in episode 8 is not enough.
