Why I haven't been blogging - Play Together

✨ Hello lovely beings ✨ 

😅 

"Free to play" was the beginning of the end. The productivity I thought I'd finally earned all came crashing down soon as the download completed! Okay, jk jk. Less with the dramatics, but downloading Play Together has taken a lot of my "extra" attention I used to devote to content creation. 

My social media isn't hurting as much, only due to the fact that I'd drafted a couple posts before finding out this game existed lol! I've just now noticed here that it's been a week since my last post 😅 . Might as well make a post about the reason why.

Oh have you now, Gojo Kakashi white haired sensei look-a-like?

Who is actively getting his groove on while explaining what's what.

Okay, so Play Together is a casual social networking virtual world type game, very remniscent of Gaia Online mixed with the more current Fall Guys, with a dash of cozy game animal crossing-esque-ness. Perfect mixture to keep my attention focused on gathering supplies to gain in-game money to customize my ideal character and in-game home you say? Yes, yes it is!

I don't have a pic of my first character from the front. I didn't have many hair choices in the beginning, so l chose reddish pigtails from the options. I quickly figured out where the hair salon was hiding. 

I do enjoy the small amount of ethnic hair options they have, but eventually settled on this mini fro bantu knot betty boop looking hair.

From the mini games, to mini missions and daily tasks, there are endless things for you to do 🥹. You even have the options of having pets, minimes [which are little aliens?], and have a whole farm.

The only thing thats a little alarming is the ability to have in-game relationships. Like have a ring and all, like there aren't children in this game 😑!

I want this Yotsuba&! hair so bad!

I've been having too much fun trying to see what kind of selfies I can get with the camera.

"Going to school" Playing mini games to make money to spend on customizating LOL.

So many random things to do. No getting bored!

Now you can understand lol! It's alright, I'm sure I'll find the healthy balance soon 😅✌🏽

Comic Artist Appreciation: Peach Momoko

 Hello lovely beings

Peach Momoko is a Japanese comic book artist, who immediately caught my eye when I first got truly into reading/collecting comic books. I had a rule where I wasn't allowed to buy any unless I was 100% sure I was going to read them. Quickly broken soon as I came across Peach's watercolors. I think I've truly only read two out of my whole collection 😅, but I don't intend not to read the rest ever! She's even done album art for the band Tool ✨ 

Reading I Hate Fairyland when I first got into comics probably wasn't the best idea. I was highly distraught that the inner art didn't match the cover, and probably made me a little biased against the storyline. On the other hand, Zawa was an adorable delight to read. I generally skew more spooky, demented, horror when looking for readable media to consume. 

Oop, just remebered I did also read Hello Darkness, so that's a whole THREE comics form my Peach collection that have been read. Nice 👍🏼✨ I adore how she mixes cuteness with nightmarish themes from time to time.

I will never get over how preciously her women of color come out. I was already smitten by how good she is with watercolors, but when I saw the Moon Girl for the first time [the first one I bought] I was in awe. The way she's able to show a beautiful assortment of complexions and different hair types ᵒ̴̶̷̥́ ·̫ ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀

Listen, she draws Magik so adorable for one. It was a MegaCon exclusive for two. Her last two or so variant exclusives sold out AND my close friend was selling it. So $65 doesn't truly feel like too much ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡.

So far from my must read rule at this point TT_TT. I see now that I have also wrongfully left the title of Magik #1 where Gone #1 should be 😅...I know I still have the time to change it, but I've already typed out the explanation so let's move right along [LOL].

Some of the works I found where she did all the storyline and interior artwork for! She's got her own Momoko-verse where she tells the stories of Marvel characters through Japanese folklore, horror, and the like. Though I have not moved these over to the "read" stack, I do at least know that about these bad boys.

Don't you just wanna hug the Venom! Maybe not as much Miles, but he still looks damn cool.

Do you collect comic books, or anything solely for the purpose of the joy of looking at it?

Just a couple of the "rewards" for the recent collectible sales.

Wise words one mustn't forget! The first photo is actually of cards we were able to sell at our local card shop. The AOT booster box is a xmas present from BB, but i think it still fits the set quite nicely.

Jan Mercari Sales + "Helping" with my Collectible Consumption

✨  Hello lovely beings ✨ 

Fully blaming my child-of-the-90s membership for my love of collecting things. I've even allowed myself to be titled a Collector of Collections, since my favorited bits range from "so many" categories. With that comes the need to refresh whats in my from time to time, making sure I'm only keeping things that I absolutely love from each respected fandom. It helps my brain believe that I'm not hoarding, but materialistically appreciating lol. This is where Mercari shines for me. They have their pros and cons, but they've been the most user friendly of the resell platforms. Every purchase helps make room for my chases, and gets each goodie to their rightful home.

✨ All the goodies rehomed for Jan so far ✨ 

Yay collectibles~! 

If you've ever wanted to sell/resell your bits online [or snag some hard to find gems], 

I highly recommend Mercari.

National Sticker Day 2026 °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･

✨  Hello lovely beings ✨ 

Happy National Sticker Day

 

 

You heard correct, National Sticker Day. Time to bust out the hoarded sticker sheets, sticker flakes, and washi tape AND slap a page. Well, that's one way to celebrate. You could also find some new stickers to add to your collection, or even make some of your own!

"The first stickers began as tax and postage stamps in the 1800s, but they have come a long way since then and there are a variety of uses and styles today. There are political stickers, band stickers, and bumper stickers. There are funny, cute, congratulatory, and animal stickers."

National Today

Yay stickers! Whimsey achieved ✨ 
Not the blog cameo in the background

I'm most likely filling the rest of the page with some ramblings from the day, and maybe a wee bit of the history of this "holiday." Why not? lol.

 

Thank you for reading!

Still here...

✨  Hello lovely beings ✨ 

If not for coming across a post by Lilly Ashton, I would have wholeheartedly given up on my blog. I felt like it was getting to become less of actual fun, and my goal of hoping to find community through it didn't seem to get any closer. Luckily with their reach, it seems Lilly is sparking the encouragement for not only bloggers to continue blogging, but for everyone to blog it out. I think with these new found blogs to follow and read, I can make it through posting some more blogs of my own ✨ 

If you're finding trouble of where to follow fellow blogspot blogs [like me, bruh i don't know why i can't always find the follow button], I like to keep track through using feedly. Literally just copy and paste the blog url, and boom! followed ✌🏼!

Thank you for reading!
