"[Growing up] is hard and nobody understands." // https://www.homestuck.com/story/2391

I woke up early but my grandma went into the bathroom so I got ready late. Skipped breakfast, decided to make a chicken burrito bowl in my Instant Pot for an early lunch instead. Mom said she was going to try making some Korean rice pasta (those disks) beef soup -- dduk guk! Checked around for ingredients, went with mom to the grocery store, got a jar of chunky salsa, some cheese, and hominy (to sub for yellow corn). Everything else I found at home. Turns out we do have chicken breast! Grandma helped me wash the canned beans and I put everything in the Instant Pot and let it rip. After it was done cooking and natural releasing I fluffed up the rice and began to shred the chicken breast only to find the chicken breast was surprisingly tough even after pressure cooking. It was definitely cooked, and no water left the system during cooking, so I don't think it was overcooking. It might've been a woody breast. The rest of the recipe turned out nicely though and the rice was good. It was a bit moist but seemed to help melt the topped cheese later. I played Valor, bought an expensive bow (with in-game gold! No real world money), melted godlands and got to farming and going to events. Dropped off my brother at work at 4:35 so my mom could come make some of that beef soup. I got to playing more Valor but died with that expensive bow. After more than a few chat messages in my Vault musing about the game and the economy I decided Valor wasn't really the best use of my time nor was it the best entertainment. Because it's not just 30,000 gold down the drain. That's days of work gone. Considering how reluctant I am to spend in real life, this is a shocking and dangerous inversion! Mindless entertainment consumes; at least when I watch sitcoms I pick up on how people talk to each other. Idealized, yes, but not fantastical. After that I worked on pasting my notes into House of Leaves with my repositionable gluestick. After dinner with that delicious soup I used code-davinci-002 to write some extinct(?) or just missing content in House of Leaves. Namely Navidson's third dream. I think I did pretty well but I'll have to check it tomorrow.
