  • some MildLad out there made a Calling Card persona-5 style, as if from the phantom thieves of hearts themselves, directed at Hideaki Nishino, the president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment himself.

    i’m not saying something is gonna happen

    but i am saying that if something did ever end up happening…

    it would be really funny

    ;3

    edit: i dunno if posting a discord CDN link will work but i’ll see if i can attach it…

    Wow. I had no idea this was going on. Well…

    If the author of the code, who was distributing it for free, wants to pick and choose who gets to run said code, then one is welcome to a refund of $0.00, I guess.

    …y’know, I feel like, hypothetically, if I made a list of ‘bad people’ and used it to control access to software made available to the general public, that would put me in a fair bit of hot water. If it doesn’t count as targeted harassment, it still creates a literal set of targeting data that anyone else can pick up and harass.

    But one way or another, i don’t think it’s very constructive for me to to continue to exist within the vicinity of someone who hates me. even vicariously through their code. just kinda stings is all…


  • nailed it <3

    but that’s aspirational at this point; right now I’m due-diligence jumping through hoops that my doctor keeps putting in my way to gatekeep me from transitioning. honestly though, i really did need to lose all this weight. i’ve recently surpassed a hundred pounds down, but i’m still at least 125 more away from a healthy enough condition to put my foot down.

    it’s gonna be rather compelling and demonstrative of this not being a fleeting ephemeral whim that only arose ‘just recently’ when I can look a doctor in the eye and state with total honesty,

    “I have dedicated several years of persistent effort to drag my weight down into a healthy range specifically because I promised myself that I would pursue a gender transition if i made it. I have lost more than my entire current body weight specifically in pursuit of this goal. If you try to tell me after all of that, that all my effort toward this exact goal was for naught, The Result Of Your Decision Shall Be Very ‘Unhealthy’ For Me, DOCTOR.





  • huh. i have somehow managed to instill within myself a penchant for unambiguous specificity in response to this question before this ever became a problem for me.

    “Are you busy?”

    “I am not available for any communication at this moment except for textual.
    I anticipate my response time shall be approximately between 30 and 300 seconds.”



  • oh, my friend, i’m sad to say that this planet has been as fucked as a toddler at a republican invite-only soiree for a long time already u.u

    Our fate was sealed since the 1960s.

    The timeline branch where we avoided this was the one where Nixon was executed for treason. We are, unfortunately, obviously in one of the variations of the world where that did not happen.

    (edit: i know he was only sworn in by 1969 and resigned in 1974 but the prerequisites for dragging his sick bastard carcass to justice were supposed to have been laid out in JFK’s second term. … Which also didn’t happen in the timeline where we have had the misfortune to find ourselves)


  • this is why i never wear socks that stop at the heel or the ankle. i can’t stand the feeling of the edge riding down >.<

    there was a little while where i had to wear compression stockings for a health-related reason, but i’ve come to really like how they feel being all the way up to my knee …

    and now i’m kinda interested in finding some pairs of thigh-highs too~ ^^;


  • there’s an ongoing memetic flashmob-style recurring gag where people pretend that the entire population of gamers are universally so toxic and evil that talking about them is a curse. stereotypes that gamers are racist, misogynistic, etc.

    and like, yeah, too many self-avowed gamers ARE toxic in that particular way–the stereotype exists for a reason after all–but i don’t like gatekeeping and the ‘joke’ reeks of it, in that it conveys the implication that playing video games is causative of acquiring fascist views and that if you play video games people will assume you are cultivating a fascist viewpoint and supporting an inherently fascistic and ontologically evil industry, which may cause some people, especially people who are already marginalized, to feel like they are either unwelcome to participate in a recreational activity or that they will be further ostracized for participating in a recreational activity.

    i for one would merely like to see people not being discouraged from enjoying stuff, y’know…?

    edit:

    but i would like to acknowledge that it’s also at least relatively obvious that it’s not actually aimed at literally all people who play video games, but more so at the niche demographic subsection of individuals who identify themselves as Capital-G “Gamers™”, which is a worthwhile distinction.

    also … i’ll admit that i’m speaking a little bit from experiences where this has personally affected me due to people assuming I was a self-avowed “Gamer” and projecting upon me a bunch of disgusting political positions that I never have, and never will, endorse. It hurts being accused of doing something that is antithetical to who you are… and I’m sorry to acknowledge that this is quite likely to have tainted my judgment about this ._.




  • depends on the instance.

    i really miss lemm.ee… it was just, y’know, nice. a nice place. with nice people. friendly, cheerful, open, welcoming.

    then you have some instances that are rather uh … combative >.> i shan’t name names lest i accidentally summon their unwanted attention.

    i’m new to my current instance and it’s a very cozy place so far. i worry i might be too edgy for the time being, but i’m hoping to sand those edges down, because goodness knows this cursed decade’s roughness has left me rough too. the Screaming Twenties have no brakes…
