Nice. I can sleep without metaphorically banging my head trying to remember.

So, essentially, I think it was a western cartoon about a psychiatrist (psychologist?), and that's about it? Animation isn't as smooth as most.

Touching frogs, snails (and I guess slugs as well). Snails particularly because I'm still freaked out at Uzumaki and the human snails.
Large bodies of water, too. I like learning about fish and the deep sea, but I'd rather stay in the shore and stay dry there.
Needles, somewhat. Up until high school, was freaked out by them due to getting dengue and the only thing I remember at that time was the hospital and needles during a fever.

Enna singing God-ish on a karaoke stream.
Really puts it into perspective. Her great singing voice, and then Enna being Enna.
Them high notes.

Counting house where I was born, three times. Moved from the hospital to there, so it counts.
First was I guess a sort of one-floor apartment. Las Pinas, National Capital Region. Row of houses. When I was in the age to go to school, we moved to Mandaluyong, also in the NCR. Place was essentially a large printing press. Big place, but only had one room to ourselves, though any relative who worked there could come into the room during breaks. Not much, but we had AC that can be used all the time as long as it gets a few hours rest. Finally we got a house of our own built in Cainta, Rizal, and that's where I've been since my second or third year of high school.

On my side, because of my back hunched over so lying on my back is impossible. Fan pointed at me, because it's a tropical climate. If possible, shower before bed so I'll feel colder. Blanket very thin, just so mosquitos won't bother my body. Shorts and nothing else, again due to the usual heat. Pillow on head the right amount of firmness. Too soft, and I'll wake up with head and neck aches. Pillow between knees, due to arthritis I can really feel if my knee is against my other knee.
Smoke before sleep. Then a glass of cold water. If booze is in the equation, then booze, smoke, and cold water so I can fall into a coma.
Quiet if possible. Don't mind waking up to noise. But quiet when lying down. Just the sound of the fan is enough.
Bed's orthopedic. Not soft. Quite firm. I feel better than a soft bed so I can easily roll out of it when I wake up. Make me sleep on something too soft, then I won't be able to get out of bed due to aches.

Have we had a food discussion yet? I’ve lost track. Might as well mention it since I'm really craving for it. Raining a lot these days, so it's cold. And for this kinda weather you know what'll hit the spot? Bile. You got pig/beef/goat innards, and bile from one of them into a soup. So offal but it ain't awful. Bile for bitterness, innards for various textures (and maybe even normal meat). Various spices, vinegar, and citrus. Sour and bitter. Great balance of flavors, and you get rice under it. Will perk you up when it's cold.

Keep the -Bar, replace the T. With that, he'll get over with the name O-Bar.

Due to low supply and increased demand due to his workload, Tony Khan has started adding extra ingredients to his cocaine.
The results are... mixed. Ba dum ts.

More like bummed than angry. We got a shrub on the backyard, chilies. Not something super spicy, but gets the job done. Leaves too. Lots of dishes here make use of the chili leaves. Provided those for years, but a spike of bad weather and possibly snails went and killed the shrub. Many mornings I'd get told to get some peppers and leaves from it, and now it's gone.

Aside from her Sonic themed costume, seems like Korone's getting DLC based on her on the upcoming Sonic game. Just cosmetic things, it seems. Gloves and shoes for Sonic designed on her, and her mascot for the audience replacing something in the game.
Maybe one day if another Doom game comes the Doog will have more than a temporary easter egg.

I don't think "go away heat" is attributable to the playable characters, since you really have no choice, but these are my picks; Wizzrobes in The Legend of Zelda: I've attempted many tries over the years to do a perfect run in the original Zelda without dying, and the 6th Dungeon was always where I ended it. These guys are super frustrating to hit and can cause serious damage. They're a joke in the later games, but nothing to be scoffed at in the original. Eggplant Wizards in Kid Icarus: I hate these guys. Anyone who has played this knows how annoying it is if they place an eggplant on your head, causing you to have to backtrack to get healed. The astronauts in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: These guys are annoying. They shoot you and retreat and it's the only part of the game where I get a Game Over. They're far more of a threat that Shredder himself. The floor in Castlevania 3: Specifically the floor in the latter part of Level 7. This is an insane task to stay alive. By the time you get to the bosses, you're probably not looking too good. The photographer in Earthbound: The only person I'm listing here that you don't fight in the game...yet I'm fighting to hit the button fast enough to get through this annoying scene. I don't want a picture. The hungry fish in Donkey Kong Country 3: I just fed you! Don't eat ME! Bundt in Super Mario RPG: It's next to impossible to beat him if you or one of your allies is dead, so make sure you bring plenty of Pick Me Ups. Tauros in Pokemon Red and Blue: I don't even want you, I just want to complete my PokeDex. Oh! You're going to run away after I threw bait at you? This is war. Mr. X in Resident Evil 2: By the end I was just so tired of him showing up, I can't tell you how stressed out I was during a couple of the fights. Pierre in Tomb Raider: Words can't describe how happy I was when I finally killed him. What an annoyance throughout the majority of the game, especially since he'd always run away. The laughing and crying flowers in Tomba: I always save here and try to avoid doing too much early on, since they can kill you very easily. Split Head in Silent Hill: He's a complete joke on Easy and Medium, but then becomes insanely difficult on Hard. I'd actually go so far as to say he's the hardest boss for the fact that he can kill you in one hit and he's annoying to hit while you're moving around. Pizza Boy in Twisted Metal 4: I once had a battle in The Maze and for some reason this guy was virtually unkillable. In a battle that usually takes less than 10 minutes, it took me well over an hour to kill this guy since I would get his health down to a sliver and he'd find a way to escape and refill his health. I'm so glad he never returned to another game. Vamp in MGS2: Like just...die dude. You're not cool, you look dumb walking around with a bullet hole in your head...and in a way it undermines Fortune's gimmick. King Courtney in GTA III: The fact you can't kill him after he turns on you, causing the Yardis to attack whenever you're encountered is dumb. In fact, unless I'm going for a 100% run, there's no benefit to doing his missions, especially since the last one you do for him is insanely hard. The Yetis in Ratchet and Clank Going Commando: Talk about overkill. These things take a ton of damage and there's literally hundreds you had to deal with. On top of that, they can kill you very easily. Even the developers knew they went too far here. Goldberg in Smackdown HCTP: I hate that stupid lockup where he wants you to kick him. A lot of slow plodding moves he can hit you with that I hate sitting through. Damon in Bully: Just attacks you on sight unlike most anyone else in the game. "I'm going to lay your butt out like a newborn baby" will forever be etched in my mind. I'd say a good chunk of the Twisted Metal 4 roster counts. 2 probably killed off most if not all of the interesting ones, so the game devs were left with just the lamest ideas when they got to 4. They turned Mr. Grimm and his motorcycle into a pirate with a boat on wheels.

Neither promo seemed that bad? Some people on Twitter made it sound like he told him to pay Colt’s legal fees right there in the ring. I dunno who’s being all shooty on who, but I vote we give the title to John Silver regardless. SEXY STONE COOOOLD! Not related to the topic, but your post reminded me years ago when I found Rule 63 fanart of wrestlers, namely Undertaker, Kane, and Triple H, and then I posted it here.

Well, for most part things are sorted out. So might as well mention it... guess who got Covid as well?
Alas, to be expected, considering the size of the hospital room. Even wearing two masks 24/7, it was kinda inevitable. Like, even if I decided to live in the bathroom of our hospital room I'd probably have caught it. Started last Friday, when I woke up and found myself with a 39C fever. Quickly went down. Not much of other symptoms aside from an altered sense of taste.
Had another test today, delivered from a pharmacy. Aside from my sense of taste, feel normal. Still positive.
So essentially, moment I came back home I isolated. Dog looks at me sadly whenever I come out to go to the bathroom, wanting walks.
On one hand, still got move room to move in my own room plus there's privacy. On the other hand, frustrating as since the pandemic began I was the one in charge at home dealing with things that have to be done outside. Pretty annoying. I'll wait a few more days and get another test.

Like, holy hell. Just being able to move around feels nice.
Hospital room, despite being considered the luxury isolation room (no choice but that as rooms were full, and we went to four hospitals already where there was no room)... basically room was small. All I could sleep on was a small sofa that ain't fitting my hunched body.
I stuck to that sofa to keep some social distancing as small as it was. Mask on all times. Unless I had to go to the bathroom, or my mom needed something I lied down on that sofa for most of the day. Again, social distancing, when I ate I huddled on next to the door that led outside... plus I didn't wanna eat in front of my mother who had to eat through a tube. No room at all.
Back here, I'm leaning back on my chair and just letting my neck unwind. Best feeling in the world.
Not really a neighbor, but from a distance from my room there's this house with several lights in their roof that I can see when I stand up. Obnoxiously bright, really. Sitting down, I can slightly see a vaguely red outline in the sky and those are those lights. It's actually a nice comfort right now, reminding me of normalcy.

Apparently my dog is sad. I walk him daily and he'd sit next to me when I use the laptop, and I think this is the first time he hasn't seen me for this long. I have a cat that always sleeps in my bed and he will start yelling when it’s bedtime and I’m not in bed. When I’m out of town one of my kids has to sleep in my bed just to ensure he does not have a panic attack over spending the night alone. His brother has also taken to sleeping in my bed every night too. The cat here sleeps on my bed as well, though doesn't make much of a fuss. Kinda. If she's hungry on some mornings she'd either whack me on the head or kinda chew on my hair to tug it.
