Deleting Twitter isn&#8217;t super realistic because it&#8217;s a primary way I keep up with a lot of my art friends, so I went through an unfollowed a lot of accounts I know talk about news-related stuff. I need to build a new habit of reading the news regularly on purpose rather than just kind of encountering it throughout my day.

I took my niece and nephew to the <a href=\"https:\/\/livingcomputers.org\/\">Living Computer Museum<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seattleartmuseum.org\/\">Seattle Art Museum<\/a>. I highly recommend looking at art with young children (my niece had some A+ commentary).<\/li>\n<li>Games: FFXIV\u00a0Shadowbringers (SO GOOD. My fiance finally finished it a whole 2.5 months later, during which I was dying because I couldn&#8217;t chat about the story with him), Rune Factory 4 (finally beat it! Though I still haven&#8217;t managed to marry anyone in it because of the random event system :P), Earthbound (beat it! A wholesome story), Kingdom Hearts 3 (I&#8217;m\u00a0still not sure what the story is, but I feel like I&#8217;ve fulfilled my promise to my 14 year old self to see this game series through at least this far), Untitled Goose Game (super fun, very mischievous)\n<ul>\n<li>FFXIV: Finished leveling my crafters to 80, finished leveling my Bard, and am nearly finished leveling my Astrologian! (Gotta get those optional role quests done for the extra story info!) I&#8217;m not sure how I feel about healing. I think I&#8217;ll stick with being a tank.<\/li>\n<li>Heard that there is going to be a Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town remake for the Switch! I really hope it&#8217;s good!<\/li>\n<li>Mobages: So much for trying to quit! Pokemon Masters came out (I found the gameplay a little boring though, so I might drop it for now and check again on it next year), and I&#8217;ve also been playing Ragnarok M like a madman. Dragalia Lost and Granblue Fantasy had updates to their story quests, so I caught up on those too.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Anime: Fruits Basket\u00a0(remake)<\/li>\n<li>Books:\u00a0I&#8230; haven&#8217;t read any books these few months because I&#8217;ve been playing video games&#8230; \ud83d\ude1b<\/li>\n<li>Podcasts: Hello From the Magic Tavern (finally caught up!), The Adventure Zone: Amnesty<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"excerpt\">Academic Finished up intern projects for the summer and submitted a few papers to CHI 2020.
