Enny's new and (Probably) exciting adventures in Tuppermancy (Remastered 2022 ​😎​)

[Guest]

Aha, well, he's not somebody I've met in person, if you were getting that. Although, we've been internet buddies for almost three years, now, I think. Close enough, I guess, whatever.

 

Hopefully going to the doctor today. Three or four hours ago, I had a bit of an itch in my ear, and found there was caked blood. Got it out, and there's been no pain, or loss of acuteness in hearing or anything, but it'd be best if I could see someone, I suppose.

 

Will try and narrate Peachy. I'm tired, and I think she's on the verge of sleeping, but I'll see if I can keep her up for today.

[Guest]

I've paid Peachy the bare minimum of attention the past few days. Sigh, I wanna say I've been too busy, but aside from a couple things I've been up to, I really haven't.

 

I do best during passive, is the biggest problem. I can see a little better, have a bit more to talk about, but I also get distracted so easily. During active, I've just been having trouble with seeing. I can narrate a bunch, yeah, but I'm so goddamn sick of not being able to see. Have tried a couple methods to improve over the past few days, and they haven't done much. Will keep at it though, I guess. Sigh.

 

I'm also getting to the point where I'm debilitatingly tired all of the time. A few nights ago, I went to sleep at midnight, slept soundly until eight or nine in the morning. Fast-forward to eleven, and I'm already so tired I need to sleep again, and do until seven in the afternoon. It's been like that for a while now, and it's pretty sucky. Ugh. Idunno. Hell, I'm tired now, even, and I've only been up for four or five hours.

 

Yeah, definitely tired.. Well, be up in a few hours. Guaranteed hour of active tonight, I guess. Not sure what I'll do yet, but I'll do it, promise.

[arcanemagic]

Yeah I know what you mean with the bare minimum passive forcing thing. It's just easier and I'm lazy. It's something that I've gotta work on too :/ As for the sleep thing, you should probably get onto a normal sleep schedule. I've found that it's not as much the amount of time spent sleeping that affects how tired I am, but how close I stick to my sleep schedule.

 

Hope I helped! Good luck!

Come to think of it, that's true of me too. I remember volunteering at a meditation retreat where we would get to sleep around 11 every night, and wake up the next morning at 4. Initially it was hell, but after about a week of it, we stopped setting alarms because everyone woke up naturally at 4 in the morning. It was really weird.

 

But yeah, for seeing her, I really suggest you draw her. I haven't found anything that helps with visualization as much as drawing does. Plus you end up with more good pictures of her.

[Guest]

I've always had major issues when it comes to sleeping, they've just been worse lately. And I don't exactly have a normal schedule. If anything, I'd say that "normal" for me is passing out at midnight.

 

And drawing, ugh, still can't draw, and drawing pisses me off more than you can imagine. I mostly blame my old art teacher for being so unbelievably condescending, and non-understanding when I'd have nothing constructive to say about bullshit abstract stuff. Fuck her, and fuck drawing.

 

Anyway, I did find the time to narrate last night, so that was good. I haven't slept since I woke up yesterday, so I haven't paid her much attention since then, but yeah.

 

Was tricky, as it was one of my friends', and my brother's 21st b-day, as i remembered after making the last post, and I was being dragged around town, but i found an hour to chill and talk about the night and stuff.

 

Aha, yeah, I got pulled along to this really fucking stupid hipster show, and had the urge to cut my ears off. I'm not sure Peachy was enjoying herself any more than I was, given a few of the looks she was giving me. So many bands trying so hard to stretch the definition of music as far as they could, for the sake of being different, especially when they were nothing but cringey, and so many dudes wearing capri's with flannels and whatever other ironic piece of clothing nodding along, and congregating while they spoke of hipster things.

 

Aha, I had my headphones in for most of it when I could help it. Also, from what I can tell, Peachy likes Metal, so there was that. I used to be into nothing but prog and shit like Periphery, Dream Theater, Protest the Hero, whatever, but wound up getting into electronic really big sometime back. I found it funny when, after getting several "so-so" responses on whether or not she liked my favorite digital and synthpop artists, I was getting enthusiastic nods on groups like Volumes and Mastodon, ahaha.

 

Anyway, yeah, sat out and ignored the hipsters. Somehow dropped my phone from a foot high, as I was sitting on some steps with a bud, and cracked it ;-;

 

Funny, given how I've dropped it from like, six feet, face-down onto asphalt before, and the pansy drop is what does it in. Still, works just fine, just ugly. And as far as I can tell, the LCD is fine, so I've just gotta grab a new digitizer for like, twenty dollars. Sigh.

 

Anyway, yeah, rambling. Will do more spending of the time with the lady tonight, I hope. For now, need sleep..

[Jay]

It used to be an involuntary habit of mine to see my tulpa lip-syncing the lyrics to music of artists like Killswitch Engage (cheesy, I know, but fun to sing along to). Sadly, it didn't seem to stick, and I'm not sure whether they currently have any preferences.

 

Protest the Hero is one of my favorites, with their first and fourth albums the ones I'm most fond of. Artists like CHON, Sithu Aye, Plini and the like are pretty cool, too. I'm curious if you or Peachy would enjoy something like

.

 

Anyway, you seem to be making good progress with Peachy. Most of my forcing has been passive, too, though I feel like everything is somewhat less concrete because of that.

[Guest]

Passive is what I can do without burning myself out, so that's what I'll generally stick with until I'm either dead or Peachy is all talkative, I suppose.

 

It's rad to see someone else on here with shared taste in music (CHON is soo Bae, and I'll be seeing Animals as Leaders (definitely check em if you haven't, Tosin Abasi is without a doubt one of the greatest guitarists of all time), The Contortionist, and a few others this July - Hopefully with backstage <3). I like electronic a lot, definitely, but it gets old seeing nothing else in the corners of the internet I frequent.

 

Protest, funny enough, I hated until Volition. Maybe it's just how raw they sounded, but aside from a few tracks off of all of their albums prior, I couldn't get into it. As soon as I heard Mist, Yellow teeth, and Skies, I fell in love. Underbite also drew me in because it's what I've been thinking about most modern and mainstream metal for a few years, now.

 

Ahhh, music. Anyway, can't listen to your link. I'm on mobile, and my data is slowed to the point I can't really use it to do anything but browse a few sites, sadly.

 

Have you heard Periphery? They just released a two-part album, and it's incredible. Their second album and EP Clear were also great. The only hit-and-miss with most people is the vocalist, Spencer Sotelo. Which sucks, because I think he's great. Although, you'll more than likely be fine with it. He takes a lot of influence from Rodey Walker, save for on the first album.

 

Go listen to Scarlet, as that also has a fantastically silly music video. And then Erised with John Petrucci after that (Periphery's Jake Bowen is Petrucci's nephew, the lucky bastard). If you're familiar with Haunted Shores at all, Periphery is basically them sans one member or so.

 

I should stop now, or I'll go on forever.

 

I'm actually practicing production and stuff tonight, so not much tuppering, though I'll try. Peachy is always so sad, I think. It's just so hard to focus for long, I don't know how to make it easier.

[Actinium]

Have you ever listened to Celldweller? He has some stuff you'll probably like. Also, here's a link to one of his more heavier songs for Peachy.

[Guest]

I'm very much a creature of habit and familiarity, so I actually have a very hard time getting into artists I wasn't introduced to by, say, a friend while I'm in town, or at a get-together.

 

I've seen the name around, mostly here, but it'll take me feeling particularly bold before I'll click those links. Hell, it took me a few weeks just to listen to Periphery's new double-album, and I fucking love Periphery. Dunno why I do it, but yeah, I do, aha.

 

Anyway, in recent lack of attention, I'm going to try to give an hour of music-listening. I'll pick out some metal and stuff, I guess. Aha, on that note, to my knowing,

. I'm not a big screamy guy these days, and I think this vocalist's are especially eh, but the song as a whole is something I really enjoy.

 

On the ablum, I've only let her listen to the two that have cleans, and she seems to like them both. The other isss

. Aha, kinda not a family-friendly song, and not reeaaallly what I wanted to expose her to, but hell if I don't love it, so eh.

 

I'll do the forcing after I wake up again later. Have the worst fuckin kind of polyphasic bs going on, and it needs to fix itself.. Egh.

[Guest]

Haha, so I just finished an hour of listening to music and stuff. We were listening to Polyphia somewhere through, and I was like "Man, Polyphia would have been a cool name for you, wish I'd thought of it", and since she's all into that kinda music, I suggested we give her a middle name, and she seemed alright with it, so, aha, Peachy Polyphia Pitt. Peepeepee. Ahahaha. She wasn't amused at that, I don't know where I went wrong.

 

Whatever. Still not totally sure how I like the sound of it. A standalone Polyphia would probably be better, or maybe we should just get rid of "Pitt". Hmm, idunno. I'll discuss it with her later.

 

Got distracted a bit, but still, good fun, glad we did it.
