you must now settle the score

I've got two Bluesky invites if anyone's interested? Let me know and I'll DM you one!

I think I am going to have to change the way my ko-fi is run/set up, as it's become clear to me that I can't do it the way I wanted AND work as well. At least, not at the moment. And okay, I haven't been in work for most of the year, but I had other things demanding brain space, and I just couldn't keep up with the minimal demands I'd made of myself in order to run it.

I need to write a post about it over there, but I'm going to leave that for a couple of days yet. And it's not going to cause any problems, as my only sub had to unsub anyway, so I won't feel like I'm letting anyone down by changing it around.

I got a new phone, as I was due an upgrade, and it's the least excited I've been about a phone upgrade ever. Added to which, I was sold a phone I didn't want, on a higher data amount than I would have liked, paying more than I wanted. Because the sales guy was insistent on me having a really good phone for my money, and a larger amount of data because apparently I had run over my limits several times - news to me, given I'm supposed to be informed when that happens, and I never have been.

Apparently the dude is unaware of what the words, "I cannot afford this right now," actually mean, because he's so focussed on hitting his sales targets.

This is probably me being a bit mean because I'm tired and far from enthused about the actual new phone but wehhhhh.

Anyway, I have a Google Pixel 7a, and oh boy their Android reskin is one of the fugliest things I've ever seen. And I don't like that I can't group the icons in the app menu together (or if I can, I haven't discovered how yet), because there's so much in there that I am straight up NEVER going to use.

EDIT: According to a post from last summer on reddit, apparently Google haven't added the ability to make folders in the app drawer, so it's not just me not being able to get to grips with my phone. *blows raspberry* [/edit]

I also don't like that it doesn't have a 3.5mm jack, so I had to buy a USB-C converter, and it also doesn't have a memory card slot! Admittedly, it has 128Gb of internal memory, but I've got so used to having my pics on a card as extra backup that this makes me feel wildly uncomfortable.

I dare say I'll get used to this, and 90% of it probably is just me being grumpy because I'm tired.

Finally, I have Opinions about P5R, but they are game spanning ones, so I shall leave it until I have finished the game in its entirety (which is going to take some doing - I'm 45 hours in, nowhere near the fifth Palace yet, and there's the extra content on top of the original gameplay length).
