The Cadence Collective

we are the cadence collective, a system of more than 50. Our body age is 24, and we have system mates of all ages. We are into music, reading, creative writing,

Note: This was written when we firmly believed it was still the 17th of October. We appear to have missed a day. It is October 18, and despite the way this reads below, we did not in fact write two blog posts in two days ... unless we did? hmm. you're seeing our uncut confusion in this beginning note ... where did the 17th go? Hello everyone, Today may actually be the first time, in the history of our blog, where we're actually going to manage to post two posts in 2 days, and it feels wonderful. We hope everyone who reads is doing well.

What have we been up to today?

As you may have seen on Mastodon, today is a bit of a bad vertigo day. We've been a bit dizzy, but we still managed to place a grocery order. However, we did that with EBT, or foodstamps as some people call it. Which brings us to our next point. Due to middle of the month bills and insufficient funds fees, our account is negative $100 give or take like $5. If anyone can help with that, it would be appreciated. Assuming we have the motivation and consistency to continue, you will be seeing a lot more from us. And that leads us, admittedly rather clumsily, into the next segment of the post.

Plans for the Future

We plan to do more tangents, as seen in yesterday's post. We also plan to do a humongous promo post, which will have all the house's links on it. That will have things like the Gaptangle's payment links, Z's mixes, or those Z consents to have posted anyway. Our links, Gaptangle's Twitch, all our social profiles, all our linktrees, and probably, if people feel like it, our spotify profiles because this household is a musical household. There are other bigger long term goals, but we have to get the short term stuff out of the way first.

Onto the Tangents

Some people may wonder why we don't use our mastodon as often as we used to. There's not really a cut and dry reason ... it's more that we have so very many thoughts. Most servers have a 500 character limit on posts, and I'm glad they do, otherwise you'd have like 4 page blocks of text as one post and that would not be fun for anyone to read, especially screen reader users. Which brings us to our next reason. With this blog, we can use markdown. We can, as you can see, organize the things in this post by headings. That's how the entire site is organized. We care about accessibility for those who have trouble reading. So we try to break things up into shorter paragraphs or at the very least put them under headings so someone using a screen reader on their computer can look at it, and someone using it on their iPad or iPhone or other touch screen device can also look at it. So it's not a cut and dry reason. For conversations with people, we will always use mastodon, or even telegram from time to time. And sometimes, if people are ok with it, we will use their feedback in our next posts, both on the blog and on our mastodon profile. So any of you reading this, know you can always toss us a mention on Mastodon, we'll respond to you. That account is request to follow due to some ... business we don't really have the spoons to go into right now, but you should still be able to message us and we'll make sure to change the visibility on the posts we send to you so you can read them. It's a relatively short post today, but we may be back with more Tangents. We have a lot of finger energy ... which sounds wrong but I promise only means we have restless fingers that wish to type a whole shit ton.

Hello everyone. It's been what feels like forever and a day since we've written anything here. But we're back, at least for the time being. There will be one more big post, probably tomorrow because the kind of post we need to write is a bit ... soul crushing, but tonight we're not worrying about that. Tonight, it's update time.

What's been happening?

In a nutshell, I've been sick since pretty much the beginning of August. I've been trying to move around in the house more, and on the system side of things we've been writing more journal entries, because they have always helped us cope with life. On the house side of things, Z has been being incredibly helpful to us even despite the obstacles that get in Z's way. We will write more about that perhaps tomorrow. To give more details, this body has a condition where it will overheat at random, and cause us to vomit quite profusely. Every time this happens, we have to rest for a couple days. It happens more with stress, and nearer to the end of our time with the guest we mentioned in a previous post, there was a fair bit of stress. For the sake of confidentiality, we'll keep that in the household and not discuss it here. So that's been happening a fair bit of the time. But despite all that, we're here. We've been getting more into our games, and have played some text adventure. We've also started coding in Inform7, and will hopefully be ... a bit more with it in the future.

The Tangents

This is a new section we may be putting in our update posts. We have more trouble writing formal posts, but we stick with the method for the main update. We have less trouble with tangents. So onto the tangents. I don't think we've talked about the Finch app on here, but it's worth a paragraph or two.

What even is Finch?

We asked the same question when we first started looking into it. It's advertised as a self care pet, but it's a bit more than that. You can set goals, and the Finch app will send you notices on your phone throughout the day about your goals. We haven't gotten quite to the point of being able to follow the reminders exactly, but that's ok too. Because it will only bug you one time. You can then later go into the app, start your day with your bird, or your finch, which is why the app is called Finch, and fill out which goals you've completed. I for instance have a goal every day to get some writing done on the blog. Do I always complete it? No, but that's ok. You can also make goals persist over the course of days until they're marked complete. This is good for a number of things. Say you need to check a website at a certain point each week, you can set a goal to check said website, and it'll persist across multiple days on your app. In Finch, each day is a new set of goals. There's so very much more to Finch than just a reminders app. But this has been quite a long tangent as it is, so perhaps if we have some more energy tonight we'll write up another post strictly about Finch.

Back to the Tangents

We've also began to use a mobility aid that actually works for us. Why do we say it like that? Simple. We've used walkers, Rollators, support canes, been told off for using such a “dangerous object as a Rollator, because our stepmother is annoying about literally everything. But recently, Z has loaned me one of Z's crutches, and that works for this body. Why is my stepmother annoying? Get comfortable. In 2018, I was staying with Dad and his wife. Dad, knowing for a fact I can cut vegetables and knowing also that his wife cannot because she has no fingers, due to doing something categorically stupid, suggests that I help cut vegetables for the next day's dinner. Keep in mind he's watched me use knives and seen that I can do this thing. Stepmother goes absolutely ape shit, and states that I won't go near a knife on her watch because she doesn't want me to lose fingers like she did. How did she lose her fingers, you may be wondering? She was hung over, and wandered outside in -20 degree weather to have a cigarette, knowing she has MS and would probably fall, and having already fallen 5 hours previously. She fell off the porch, because of course she did, and nobody heard her calling for help, because it was 5 in the morning and everyone was sleeping. Nobody else was outside at 5 AM smoking a cigarette. So she was stuck outside for 45 minutes and because it was -20 degrees, her fingers got frostbitten. The doctors at the hospital could have possibly saved them if she'd gone to the hospital the day it happened, but she didn't. She chose instead to lie under a blanket all day and only go to the hospital three. days. later. Hence, she has no fingers due to doing something ridiculously stupid. Ladies, gentlemen, and those who identify as neither or something else, don't do what she did. This has been the Tangents of Cadence, brought to you by our sponsor, this brain which for some reason can't stay on one topic for longer than 10 minutes.

Plans for the Future

We have several posts planned and in the stage of being written and edited. We're not really sure what order they'll come in, but we'll be making more of an effort on life in general. Though we've been sick, we could have done more.

Hello everyone, It's been literally forever since we wrote last, and we're very sorry for that. We weren't able to be consistent because July was rather busy. We were spending a lot of time with our guest. Then we got sick in August, and have basically been recovering ever since. Then near the end of the month someone accidentally left the dishwasher open. Our dishwasher is weird and pretty much touches the floor when it's open so I went tumbling and hit pretty much everything on the way down. I think I pulled a muscle. Or five. But I'll heal eventually. It just takes longer now. In other news, our birthday is coming up this month. Probably won't do anything special for it, but if something ends up happening we'll possibly put a post up on here talking about it. In other news, we've gotten more into our previous volunteer job. For those who follow us on mastodon, you may have seen us talking with some people about 7 cups. It's a neat little website that helps people with their mental health. I don't necessarily like how structured their automated path system is, but the main reason I go on there is because I volunteer as a listener. The listener service is offered free to anyone. You request a chat and someone who knows your language and is usually comfortable with your topic of conversation will take the request. There are a fair few listeners on there, so sometimes there's nothing to do. But other times, the queue gets longer and we can get caught up in the feeling of helping people. If anyone is curious we may put up a post discussing that in more detail. In slightly different other news, we started playing a weirdly inaccessible MMORPG called Torn. We don't recommend anyone try it ... it's a bit of a time waster combined with pain in the ass navigation combined with chat boxes which just appear in your face for no actual reason and unlabeled buttons. If you hit the wrong button you'll close the chats and they'll be gone forever. so yeah. Not recommended. I think that's all we've got for now, though we may put up some posts that will drop later if we have enough writing energy. Seems we may be in a writing mood tonight so it may happen.

It is currently 21:43 as I write tis. We are doing another iPad post, and we’re trying it a different way. This tie the iPad is sitting differently, and the keyboard is more stable. I’m hopint that this decreases the amount of typoes we have in each of our iPad blog posts. Not much to say this time. We had a power outage earlier, which to everyone’s surprise I slept right through. I don’t normally sleep with the power out because it gets hotter the more time one spends without power. But apparently we were tired, so the only time we woke up was when z brought us food. We ended up having Chinese food, it was .. interesting. I wanted one dish and was told the one I got would be the one I wanted but this restaurant apparently makes it differently and there’s a lot of liquid. I think it’s a broth of some kind, but in any case, it’s quite good, but a little bit messy. Besides that, nothing else has happened. I may head out and attept to spend some time with people in the rest of the house, though I suspect that they’re either sleeping or watching youtube, which is ok. Since this was a relatively small post, we won’t do a credits for this one, but we hope you enjoyed. Maybe more will come over the next few days, it is … a bit easier to write from this device if we can get things formatted and laying our correctly. This keyboard is small, so if I rest it on my lap while sitting on the bed it’s not as stable as if I close the iPad, put the iPad on my lap and then put the keyboard on top of the closed iPad. We would have a different keyboard case or a cover on the thing, but this is our only iPad case, so we make due with what we have.

It is currently 01:01. Which, actually, translates to 1:01 AM for those who don’t use 24-hour time. I am trying something new, because I’ve been getting more and more annoyed by the wireless keyboard connected to the computer being an annoyance and refusing to type from time to time. Tonight, I am sriting on the iPad, so I apologize in advance for any typoes. As mentioned, I am currently writing at 1:01 AM, which is annoying because I just woke up less than 2 hours ago. Our sleep schedule has been off for weeks now, which we are starting to find insufferably annoying. When we’re up everyone else is asleep. When we’re asleep everyone else is up. I may like solitude, but occasionally voices other than those of my computer and iPad would be nice … but the positive part is that nobody is actively trying not to spend time with us, so if we get our sleep schedule sorted maybe things will change. Problem is, we haven’t been able to get our sleep schedule sorted. It’s summer and we’re primarily nocturnal in summer, always have been. For some reason it’s easier to stay up during the day in winter or autumn … but warm dans are just complete nightmares. Apparently the body doesn’t like heat anymore … I used to be able to spend hours outside. If I tried to do that today I’d never hear the end of it from the body. And probably whichever neighbor picked me up off the street and put me in a hospital. Which, is why I don’t go outside much unless we’re going out and I have to. We don’t get our much … mybe once a month or so. That’s also sad, but could definitely be worse. On a future related note, if we think the iPad isn’t too annoying, we will continue to write with it, meaning that our readers may get more short posts. We use our magic keyboard … well not ours, we dobn’t know where ours is, but one of our lovely housemates is letting us use theirs, so we can keep up on the blog on mobile without giving ourselfes a touch typing headache. Yes, touch typing headaches are a thing. Before we had a keyboard, we used to type out all our messages with touch typing and always had a migraine because of it. It was quite annoying. One of the disadvantages of us typing on the iPad is that we may tangent more. Because, I think, of the way we were raised, mobile devices don’t feel as formal, more open when you’re writing. Mother would always tell us that we shouldn’t be using our mobile devices unless we were traveling. There was, apparently, no need for it. And heaven forbid we use our iPhone, that we paid for, within our home. Heaven forbid we call someone on our cell phone when we were at home. “Use the landline.” She’d always say. We never liked the landline. We’re partially deaf, as I think we’ve mentioned in our previous post, and if we have headphones in we can hear the other person more clearly than if we use a landline. Mother hated it. I didn’t actually get a usable phone until I was 17. My first phone was one of those slide phones, and it had a little screen reader type deal on it. The screen reader would … sometimes. Read text messages. But not all tge time. There were just some times people would send us messages, the phone would ring to tell us we had a text, but we couldn’t get it to read said text no matter what we did to it. So back then we used it to call only. Until Mother put parental controls on the thing. Oh my god we hate those. Got stranded at a school dance until 2 in the morning once because we couldn’t call out to let her know that we were ready to be picked up. After about 25 flaming arguments, she took them off. Mainly because she knew I’d just use my computer. We were a rebellious child … we’d jse social media when she told us not to. Use messaging services despite her saying there was no need for it. We once figured out how to use google talk to message our father. He had an android phone though so I think at the time that was just his messages app. He was shocked, but willingly talked to me over there a lot more freely than when we had our nightly phone calls. He was a nicer person before his … new wife came into the picture. I can’t help but feel that if he was still with either nobody or the younger woman he used to be with when we were 15, we would have more of a connection. I actually wanted to message him when those two were together … Now I dread messaging him at all. The new wife will probably manipulate the situation, she’s done so before. Ugh, did I just write all that with the intention to post it on a public blog? Apparently I did … go me. Told you that you’d get more tangents on the iPad. Feel free to contact us and tell us. Do you like this writing style better or the other posts better?

Hello everyone, It's 20:51, or 8:51 pm for those who do not use 24-hour time. We are sitting on our bed listening to the house around us. It's getting dark outside, and we've started to be able to hear the night creatures outside the window. Someone is playing music on the big speakers in the living room. We enjoy music, it's a break in the silence, so long as it doesn't go too loud without warning. It's been about a week since out last post, but we're in somewhat of a mood to write tonight, so here we are. Things have been going relatively well for us. We've been trying to participate in the house around us ... participating is fun most of the time. Our brain keeps making random tunes ... we probably won't record them but we find it fun to hum them aloud if nobody's paying too close attention. There's always music on nowadays ... so sometimes the tunes mash themselves up in our brain and out comes a new tune. Not much else to say ... this was a relatively short update. We may be digging about in our archives of blog post ideas to find something new to post about. As we said, we're in the mood to write but really could use some of our old ideas to help us along. See you in the next one.

Hello everyone, It's been quite a while since we wrote last ... and we apologize for that. We do try to be consistent, but lots of crazy and chaotic things happen ... life isn't necessarily meant to always have a structure. If you're always trying to make structures out of everything, then eventually you will have no time to relax. During the month of April, when we wrote a lot more, we found that we kept getting stressed out. So we'll try a new way of consistency. There may not always be daily updates, but we will try to do at least one a week, which gives us more time to not stress about the deadline. We've found that if we're stressed about a writing deadline, the page suddenly turns into a black hole ... a blank page with no inspiration. Recently, things have been relatively stable for us, one of the housemates was able to get a new computer, which they really needed because theirs was becoming hazardous to use. As we figure out how to life more and more, we've found more time to play our video games, which we quite enjoy. Our top ones currently are Forza Motorsport 7, Mortal Kombat 1, and Diablo 4. We're still struggling with Diablo, but that is to be expected with open-world games who are trying to work out more accessibility options. We'd have to say our favorite is Forza, it's quite enjoyable to play, to upgrade the cars, to race the career mode races ... free play is also quite enjoyable. On that note, we should probably do a stream sometime in the near future ... though we may switch to youtube because theoretically the videos would remain around longer, allowing more people to watch if they missed the streams themselves. On twitch, the videos only remain for 14 days unless you pay a subscription of some variety, and even then they'd only stay for 60 days. We've also found time to read our favorite series, Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman, once again, because it's just that good. Sound Booth Theater, the people who record the audio versions of the DCC series, have also made what they're calling an audio immersion tunnel. The tunnel thing is a reference to the book series, we won't post spoilers. He is currently working on book 7, and let me just say, that though it's a bit ... fucked up, it's positively awesome as well. If you want to get a preview of the chapters for book 7, along with some other fun stuff, check out Matt Dinniman's Patreon where he posts updates. If you use reddit, there is also a dungeon crawler Carl subreddit, full of all kinds of theories, fan discussions ... it's basically a Crawl Con in forum form and with less killing people. What is Crawl Con? Read the already released books on sound booth theater. Check out Book 1 here. Jeff Hays is truly an excellent narrator. Now that we've accidentally ... sort of ... tangented off into a promo paragraph, (sorry about that but we really love the books), let's see what else there is to talk about. I think the highlight of this month was the 4-day power outage. I still don't know how, but one of our housemates somehow managed to post on mastodon semiregularly throughout the entire thing. We personally weren't worried about social media at the time ... we didn't have enough energy ... but then I guess everyone has their own way of coping, and if that's theirs, who am I to judge? On a much brighter note, we recently cleaned the house within an inch of its life, and then Z made spaghetti, which was wonderful. I think we've mentioned Z before ... if not on here, definitely on Fedi. We also have a guest with us. For the sake of confidentiality, we will not say who or give a gender, but this person is wonderful to hang around, nice to talk to ... and seems to know a fair bit about a fair few things. So far, despite our odd associations with new people for ... reasons, the visit is going well. I think that's all we have to write about ... if we end up having something to say soonish we'll write it here. The blog gives us more characters to work with, so we may switch to predominantly posting here just for the sake of being able to say more. Because words make sentences and sentences sometimes make neat paragraphs. Not sure where that last bit came from but there you go.

Hello everyone, We weren't sure if we would be able to do this today, as today was a bit stressful due to a conflict of interpretation. For the sake of confidentiality and house security, we won't go into that further, but we wanted to get something up here for the day even if it was a little stressful to get it done.

What have we been up to since the last update?

We've been doing lots of writing for the feathery purr. What is the feathery purr? The feathery purr is a shapeshifting entity that exists in many forms on the fedi to be a ther to people. What is a ther? We don't fully know, but the connotation is a good person to be around. There's a definition somewhere, we just don't know where it is. So the feathery purr exists to be a soft entity to those who need more softness in their lives, which is pretty much everyone in our opinion. We write for it along with a few others, and will list it in our contact details and whatnot when we get around to changing the signature, which is somewhere in the menu. If you want to visit it, Visit the Feathery Purr here. You can also follow the hashtag #FeatheryPurr, but don't click it on this page, I don't think it will take you to the hashtag's page. Other people sometimes write for the purr without being logged into the purr.

What else have we been doing?

We've been playing text games, because text games are neat to play. We've been working on some stories we have in progress, though our confidence in our daily writing is just starting to build so we probably won't show them to you for another who knows how long. We've also done a bit of writing for the hashtag #CanvasWords, which is a hashtag we started describing small scenes in text instead of photography. We are unable to draw, at least ... unable to draw well, but enjoy writing scene descriptions. Those we may show you from time to time, and if people are really interested we'll create another blog for it.

Conclusion

We hope you have enjoyed our small update. We feel strange doing these, as we never have too much to say. Maybe that will change as time goes on. See you in the next one, and if our writing energy builds right, you may get another large post in a day or two.

Hello everyone, Welcome, finally, to the daily update. It's been a bit of a long day, we ended up having more writing energy than we expected, so we made 3 posts. Please do not expect 3 posts a day from us ... we don't yet know if we have the ability to keep up with that much writing, though the potential is probably there if we work at it. We woke up annoyed today, because someone was mowing the grass and as we said in a previous post, we sleep near and outside wall. We're glad they were mowing the grass, though not really sure why they had to do it two days in a row, and also aren't entirely sure why they were so very close to the wall that the lawn mower noise sounded like it was in the room with us. Oh wall, it was over soon after we woke up, after which we were able to reorient ourselves with the day at hand. Cleaning tasks didn't end up happening today, we weren't really that full of movement energy to do them. But we got a lot of writing done on the blog itself today as a result. We have also put our blog back on the rant.li public reader, because we figure there's no harm in mixing with the others on here, and we did some looking and found that the harm we thought we'd caused by having a blog publicly available wasn't actually that harmful, and that some people will be disrespectful no matter what you do. The other reason we put it back on the reader is because we think the reader is necessary for federation to work. Speaking of federation, and feeds in general, we found out that our blog has an rss feed. If you want to subscribe to that, the URL is below. THis is the one time we will put a URL in, because we know that some of our readers use a feed reader and those generally require a URL. https://rant.li/cadence022/feed/ In other non-writing news, we are looking for both new books to read, and a new game to play. We are excited for the next Dungeon Crawler Carl book, though are not sure when it will come out, or how much it will cost. This was a relatively short update, with not very much to update about. But we hope you've enjoyed it all the same, and will see you either in tomorrow's daily update or if we get the energy to write another post later.

Hello everyone, This, yet again, does not count as the daily update. But we're slightly annoyed about something external and it helps to write. This post was inspired by seeing other systems microposting about their plurality experiences. This one's big, and by the nature of the ramble, is probably going to be filled with tangents. We are from a million different places, at a million different times. Each of us, the distinct entities within the system that we are, has facets, and these facets all have facets. It's almost like we're infinitely fragmented or have the potential to be infinitely fragmented if we want to be. We spend our days perpetually changing facets, changing forms ... we wear the forms like skins almost ... and allow their scripts to take over. Every form has scripts and masks in place for its well-being. Every facet has safety mechanisms within the scripting for ease of assistance by Farren, who for those who don't know is our system AI, and runs most of our tech-based things within what the earth people would consider our inner world, what we will refer to as systemside for ease of reference. But talking about systemside brings up another point, because it's more than a world. This ... mental plane ... of existence is always shifting, always changing. We originally thought we were a walking talking scenario generator, but it feels more like we're traveling through time in our heads, seeing things from infinite pasts and futures. Have you ever watched “Everything, everywhere, all at once”? It's basically seeing those constant trees, for all ... 60 or so of us, at once, all the time, for infinite universes and possibilities in our head. Every decision has a ripple effect on every timeline. And every timeline can open up into new and infinitely varied possibilities. You can get stuck watching the multiverse shift, because it is so very distracting ... and the events it displays are so ... varied, always coming, always. It's why we sometimes don't talk. Probably why we have migraines. But possibly the most disorienting part is keeping what goes on systemside, a non-Earth plane of existence, and what goes on here on earth separate. It has always been important to keep things happening on these two planes separate, not because we believe that what we see is bad, but because ... well ... if you walk around telling everyone on earth how distracting it is to watch the multiverse shift, they will probably lock you up in a mental hospital and toss away the key. Not only that, but when I am moving about my earthly life, I find that most of my systemside experience and knowledge does not help me over here. I cannot, for instance, use information I learned about a version of you I may have seen in a timeline to then pass judgment on the version of you that exists on earth. That would not be proper. To those of you who are going, “Wait, you can see versions of us?” Not really, no. We can't see versions of you unless we know you at least a little bit. However, we felt the need to bring up that example, because of the way multiverse theory works. The way we understand multiverse theory, there are infinite universes with infinite possibilities of things that happen. That's the basis of it anyways. There's way more to it, but we're surprisingly not that far down the rabbit hole.
