I have to write some boring essay about some boring Shakespeare play but you don't have to read that; instead, I think you should read my story in Palette Swap this month.
My masscom major friend is so upset about how my school handled the bad weather today that she's going to vent her frustrations by writing an article about it.
Remember how I said I had a story in the works that I want to submit to the Shroom?
Good news! I just finished it today and I'm probably going to revise a little before I send it in.
Bad news, maybe: it's 13 and a half pages long, although that's double spaced and in Courier New so it wouldn't...
Since it's my birthday and also spring break, I plan to do as little as possible to be productive. I'm just going to play games and watch Seinfeld all day.
I've decided I'm okay with just being less active in the community overall but I do have a story in the works that I'm hoping to submit to the Shroom when it's done.
Maybe reading the 3600 word excerpt from my novel at open mic and trying to talk to people over loud music wasn't a good idea while I'm still getting over being sick.
I have literally no reason to pay for cable so thankfully I don't do that. I only pay for their Internet and I'm definitely going to drop them after I move.
I really thought nothing would ever beat Comcast as my least favorite company but at least Comcast consistently provided service and outages were rare. Spectrum can't even do that. It goes out multiple times per week and they have the audacity to keep selling me on their other services.
This is the second big outage Spectrum has had in less than a week. I hate them so much. I desperately want to get rid of them and pick anyone else for my internet. I'd go back to Comcast over Spectrum.
I had a fever yesterday but today I'm just sweating a ton by being under my blankets. It's not like my blankets usually make me sweat this much so I'm not sure what's going on.
I'm a college student in the year 2024 so having a laptop is pretty important to me. Whatever this problem is doesn't happen often enough that it's a massive issue, it's just kind of annoying. I don't need to urgently replace my laptop.
Something is going on with my laptop. I'll just be using it like normal, suddenly hear a Windows error noise, see what looks like a loading screen, and then it will act like it's off. I'll turn it back on and everything will still be there so it actually went to sleep, I guess?
Anyone know...
The Spectrum junk mail is so annoying. My favorite thing is how they keep sending me junk mail even though I already pay them $25 a month. Apparently they're not satisfied with that and they also want me to buy phone and cable services from them, which I'm not going to be doing ever.
Fun fact: the government actually tried to hold cable companies accountable at one point by charging them a fee, but then they just passed the fee on to their customers.
I think ISPs are just the worst companies. They know they provide a service that's necessary in today's society so they stupidly overcharge for it and treat their customers horribly knowing they can get away with it.
So my Wi-Fi has been down for 11 more hours than Spectrum said it would be and now my cell service randomly grenaded itself and won't do anything. I'm so done with this week, it's been awful.
