Hello everyone, We're back again by some miracle ... who knows why. But ... we're here. For our readers in the US, we hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving. For everyone else, happy Friday. Here in the United States, a huge thing is Black Friday. Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving. According to the research I just did, most countries celebrate it in some capacity. We've never liked Black Friday, not because we're super capitalist and against sales. But because we're disgusted with just how ... frenzied ... people get in order to get their Black Friday deals. To illustrate that point, it's story time.

Story Time, Black Friday Edition

I was 5 years old, and by this point in life knew that every Thanksgiving we would go to Illinois to celebrate with Mother's family. That's tradition, therefore that's what happened. Thanksgiving day was never our favorite because they'd crowd 45 people into a space the size of maybe a standard living room with an attached kitchen. While crowded into this space, they would proceed to do things like scream loudly for no given reason, have food fights, yell at football, loudly, argue dramatically with each other about the best way to cook a turkey, and in general have precisely zero celebration of what school taught me Thanksgiving was supposed to be. But I could get away from that madness. They had a basement. A cold, quiet, big basement with a bed and pillows. I could get away from them ... Black Friday was a different story. For obvious reasons, us kids couldn't stay home alone at 5 years old ... that is some form of illegal in a lot of states I believe. But that didn't stop my family. Mother, Margy, and Leah along with their very loud pack of screaming lunatics would leave at 4 in the morning, leaving us kids in the care of the men. That wouldn't last long. One year there were no men present: they all had to work. So all of us got bundled into the car, a suburban, and taken out to town. There, we'd be dragged through store after store. Often used as placeholders in the lines while the rest of the adults continued to shop. Oh, you're hungry? We're shopping right now. We haven't eaten in 12 hours? Oh that's fine, it's shopping time. We were treated like dolls. Try this clothing on. Play with this toy and see if it works. Oh you're having fun? Stop playing now and give that here so I can buy it. The other kids grew to love it. They found it great fun to try on endless clothing and run about to endless stores. But even back then I couldn't stand for long periods of time. I remember distinctly feeling tired, bone tired, more tired than I'd ever felt in my life ... and knowing it wasn't normal. Knowing that it's not normal to need 3 days to recover from walking across a town... But Mother was determined. And the more I struggled, the worse her mood got. One time I fell down. I'd gotten mashed into by a frenzied shopper heading for a display of toys and trying to get there before Margy. I wasn't doing well, so it didn't take much to push me over. My mother didn't react well. I was accused of making a scene. I was taken home and told, “Since you don't want to behave for shopping time, you get no food and no Christmas presents.” Exact. words. verbatim. I got no dinner that day. She wasn't allowed to follow through with the no presents comment, I assume Dad told her no, that's not a thing you get to do. I got books and clothes that year.

Why in the world did we just tell you all that?

As we were typing, we were wondering the same thing. But I've come to a conclusion now. I told this story because I don't want the same thing to happen to anyone else. To anyone reading this with a plan to go out shopping on Black Friday, please remember this. Be safe. Be kind. Accommodate those with you, even if it costs you your place in line at some store. No item is worth losing yourself to the shopping frenzy.

Hello again all, We're back, as promised, with today's update. Not much to say that we haven't already said. See the previous post, entitled “A peek into the chaos” for more info about that stuff. What there is to say however, is as follows:

What have we been up to?

Over the past couple days, we've spent a lot of time in what we like to call personal reflection. We don't often post this reflection material on the blog, because it's very intimate and ... well frankly very confusing. We spend this time journaling and trying to pull apart and reassemble the strings of our brain until it all makes sense. It's an always in progress goal ... we doubt we'll ever make sense of everything. When we're not in our own head, we've spent some time scrolling mastodon, and some more time playing space games, text based with soundpacks are our favorites, or listening to music. We think that we've discussed our musical tastes on here a few times, and planned to do a pinned post discussing that. It will still happen ... just not right now because we have a pounding migraine. But we promised the audience an update, so an update we are giving. For those who wonder what space muds we play, we go between Cosmic Rage and Prometheus. We've recently gotten into Erion, but haven't played that in a couple days. We get really really into that one, but during the day we try to remain alert to our surroundings. Well, as we expected, this is a pretty tiny post. We'd like to take a quick minute to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving if you're in the US, that will be happening tomorrow for us. If you're not in the US, have a happy Thursday tomorrow. We likely won't post tomorrow, so see you all in the next one.

Hello everyone, Today's post is a bit different... something we hope not to have to make a regular occurrence. We appreciate your support and the fact that so many people come around to read what we have to say... and apologize for the fact that this won't be what you all are used to. We'll try and also do an update post if we have the time/energy later on. In a post a few days back, I mentioned that Z injured z's knee. It's still sprained and healing, as things tend to go with most medical conditions. We do not have ice packs, and as those who have had similar injuries may know, ice can be essential in the healing process. So we are asking for enough cash to get an ice maker. For those who are curious we would likely get one that is button-based because all of us are visually impaired in this house. For those of you who prefer exact links before you feel able to assist, check out this page containing a likely ice maker candidate We require ziplock bags, both for making ice packs and for keeping our snacks fresh, and are currently out. We've also reached the point near the end of the month where it's time to do a deep clean of the kitchen for the sake of our health, but have reached said point with a lack of any finances which ... are unfortunately needed to get things such as bleach, pine-sol, more laundry detergent, wash cloths, and a spray bottle to make our mixture for cleaning surfaces. I know ... that's quite a lot. That ice maker is currently on Black Friday clearance for $53. The rest of those items are as follows: Please note: Since we have more characters to work with, as this is a blog post, we'll give you what we've never been able to give you before: a list of the prices for these items we're asking for money to buy. * bleach is $5.72 * Pine-sol is $9.98 * Cloths are $5.78 * Ziplocks are $5.98 * Spray bottle is $1.24 * Laundry detergent is $5.44 * And finally, a delivery fee to get everything here reasonably quickly is $10. If you add all those together, that gets up to about $100. We understand that this is a huge ask, especially around Thanksgiving, and would be extremely thankful for any assistance that comes our way. This should go without saying, but we like to make it clear anyway. We appreciate all assistance, but please do not assist us if you do not feel able to do so. For those who are unable to assist, that's all right. We will have an update out later on today ... if we're able. Support links can be found in the signature below. Thank you for reading and for any assistance you can provide.

Hello all, Once again, it's been another age and a half since we've updated. We keep saying that we're going to update more often and then shit gets in the way and we just can't or don't. But we're going to do a quick update today because ... don't know, why not.

What have we been doing?

Well, things have been crazy busy here the past fair bit. We had to go look and figure out when the last time we wrote was. Turns out it was the 18th of October. Interesting ... wish we were keeping up on this more. Apologies, we ramble quite a lot. We were supposed to post about this about a month ago but have been sick or dealing with migraines or sleeping and didn't. Z, who we've mentioned on here many times, somehow managed to injure Z's knee, and without going into too much detail, we've been helping Z with a lot of stuff when we're up. That has taken up a fair bit of our time over the past month. However, we don't mind, and would rather use our energy to help someone we care about than use it to worry about things we can't change. Which leads us into our next point. We've been working on changing our way of seeing things. We used to worry quite a lot about just random out there things, get paranoid pacing around the room upset. But we've been trying to redirect our attention away from that kind of mindset. Instead of, for instance, being paranoid about having not put the food away after dinner, put it away after you're done with it, then write down that it's done or complete it with Finch. That's not an actual example, but a hopefully illustrative one nonetheless. The past few days, we've been doing laundry like crazy. We've not caught up on it for months ... not because we didn't want to, but because we were just that sick and screwed off that we never got around to it. But the other day I finally, yes, finally, at 25 years old, learned how to use laundry detergent without making a room-sized mess. Why did it take us this long to know what to do with laundry detergent? Well, for that we have to tell you a bit about our mother.

Our Amazing (sarcasm) mother

Our mother believed, and probably still does believe, that the most important thing about a person is the way they are publicly perceived. Due to this, she would do a number of things. At a young age, we were not allowed to learn to take trash out to the trash cans. We wanted to ... not because we wanted to help her but because other kids were doing it. She instead chose to teach us how to function at formal dinners. At times to the point of screaming at us because we didn't know how to use a knife with our food. We weren't taught that either until our VI teacher told her off for not teaching us to use silverware with some hint of common sense. That's the only reason we were ever taught much of anything. That all changed when we were 14 years old. Suddenly we were expected to know how to do chores. Wash the dishes, she would say. How? You never taught us how. Take out the trash she'd say. Again, how? Where is out? Then she showed us trash cans. Only then did we know where trash went on trash day and why it was so important to gather up one's trash the day before and have it ready.

Back on Topic

Well, that was a tangent about our mother, brought to you by a combination of the littles, Martha, and Farren translating it to something able to be understood by the average person. Now that we know how to use laundry detergent, we've been doing so like mad. 2 loads went in last night, and we've already done 2 today, 3rd is going through. Not that random people on the internet are interested in our chores, but if you're curious what we've been up to ... nothing terribly interesting. Chores and living our life.

What's next?

Should we somehow manage to get a consistent posting schedule going, which ... well, go scrolling down the blog and see how well that's gone ... we'll possibly do some more posts about games and tech that we mess with. We'll continue the updates as regularly as we can manage, but no guarantees on how frequent those will be.

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.

As always, post was primarily written by Kayla. Nicole and Elena contributed some reasoning to the Tangents, and Farren edited for spelling, accuracy, and formatting. We hope you've enjoyed.

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.

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.
