1) Google Play Store / Apps If you're emulating from an android phone, open Google Play Store to download a few initial apps to begin. If you're booting up from an android gaming handheld, some devices give an option to choose their own custom interface front-end or the Android option. Choose android for now as it will make things simpler to download/set-up apps. Once in Play Store, download/install Daijisho (which will act as our game launcher/library), and the emulators in the Play Store list below. Some emulators are newer/updated and perform more efficiently that are not listed in the Play Store. Go to their websites and download/install the latest builds.

But the fun and colorful designs with funny dialogue made this game bearable and held my interest wel...

Vitamins and BK Chicken Nuggets

 Living on Vitamin Supplements and Burger King Chicken Nuggets Ever since developing comorbidities, my health challenges have caused a disease even more disasterous than my immune disorders: poverty. All dark jokes aside, this past year has been a continued challenge to stabilize my health, and maintain enough nutrients when I've been experiencing continued health problems that hinder me from working "normal" jobs. That said, I've been "hyper-fixated" on optimizing my health, pushing doctors to test for deficiencies, eating healthy meals, and taking supporting supplements.  A huge issue my autoimmune disorder has caused is partial intestinal paralysis, or a variation of slow gut motility. That was making it difficult to eat ENOUGH meals during the day. Not only have I tried OTC laxatives and a high fiber diet, but also acupuncture, massage, and a few supportive supplements. While manually massaging my abdomen does assist bowel movement throughout the area wh...
