THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM

[ultrafacts]

Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]

[retro-geek-deactivated20220412]

For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.

Beautiful.

Now I’m crying thanks

[sapphic-matriarchy]

and a new cat was hired right?

[clarenecessities]

yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy

she works very hard

[beasti]

Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.

I’m crying at 11pm over train cats

[sighinastorm]

Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016).  There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.

a legacy

[bemusedlybespectacled]

okay but actually what happened to santama (or sun-tama-tama, which is her name because it’s a pun on santama) was that she was basically sent to train for the position in okayama and they liked her so much they refused to send her back

[kindaoffkilter]

“Sun-tama-tama” (a pun off of “Santama”, lit. “third Tama”) was a calico cat sent for training in Okayama. Sun-tama-tama was considered as a candidate for Tama’s successor, but the Okayama Public Relations representative who had been caring for Sun-tama-tama refused to give the cat up writing, “I will not let go of this child, she will stay in Okayama.” [25]

As of September 2018, Sun-tama-tama is working as the stationmaster in Naka-ku, Okayama and appears occasionally on Tama’s Twitter account.

You are only allowed to scroll pass this after you pay tribute to the great Tama Station masters.

lets make a videogame how hard can it be

[slimetony]

nevermind you have to know shit about computers

[hthrthebear]

hey!! sorry to hijack this post, but there are a bunch of ways you can make videogames without knowing shit about computers!! 

for starters, there’s Twine, which is fucking great for making all kinds of interactive experiences (it’s what Crystal Warrior Ke$ha was made in so you KNOW it’s good) at all skill levels (i picked it up and made a game in two minutes a few nights ago)

if you want a bit more involved experience there’s Inform 7 which is a simple language for text-based adventure games that reads like slightly-weird English and also relatively easy to learn

you can do some pretty fucking cool stuff with Unity (my personal engine of choice) but you may need to dig a bit farther to get at the good stuff. there’s lots of really good presets though (i made an entire game just mixing and matching pre-existing templates and adding in my own art, won an award at a game jam for that one) and if you want help the community’s pretty dang friendly from what i’ve seen!

this is just a taste of what’s out there from what i’ve seen, but there’s so many cool resources out there. if anyone wants help getting started, i’m around to give you a leg up on making something in the coolest, most unexplored art medium around!

[auttoton]

I’m addin’ to this post because lowering the barrier to entry for making games is super important to me!!!! If y’all have any questions about making games, you’re welcome to come and ask! I made this list a while back with some friends, so it has some of the programs John already mentioned.

2D Editors:

GameMaker : Potential for pure drag-and-drop “programming”. It is recommended to read-up on the program’s functions to make good use of it. Good for prototyping. Uses its own language called Game Maker Language (GML) that is similar to a C language (e.g. C++ or C#). For both Mac and PC; free version available.

Construct2 : Drag and drop level editor that uses an “If-Then” event sheet structure for programming. Good for prototyping and for beginners. For PC; free version available.

GameSalad : Drag and drop with no code requirement. Good for programming. For both Mac and PC; free version available.

Solpeo : HTML5 based game engine for 2D and isometric game development. Some programming knowledge needed. Platforms supported: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer 9+. Free version available.

@slimetony how does it feel to have your shitpost be turned into a helpful resource

[slimetony]

It feels like a betrayal of every tenant of humor I subscribe to. Helping people is an alien concept to me. It makes me upset.

Phoenix: (Looks like I have to present that piece of evidence.)

Me: (What? What piece of evidence? How do you expect me to read your mind, Wright?)

isn’t there a part of the bible where god gets mad at a fig tree for not having any figs on it and curses the fig tree?

[trainspotteranonymous-deactivat]

yeah there legit is that’s 100% true

[vibinwitch]

Yes.

[strangeparkings]

last time we reblogged this we got anon hate from the christian community. You guys really are passionate about your figs.

[valya221]

Jesus was in a really cranky mood that day.

[meltedgarment]

And who could blame him

[flip-this-table]

And the tree spoke unto him, “fig machine broke, lol”

My biggest question about this chapter is how the hell Hagakure didn't hear Kendo approaching her when she was dragging a freaking cannon and Momo's unconscious body. Like really, HOW?

[laffing]

weird observation but how come no one ever talks about how dave the barbarian was biracial 

[mousathe14]

Huh, never really realized that. Here’s one, how come we don’t talk about Dave the Barbarian? That seems like the sort of thing that people would dredge up, revive and it would become a meme machine these days, right? I mean, it is rife with the kind of nonsense people would relish today. I mean, I’ve met middle schoolers in the past two weeks that make Shrek and classic Spongebob jokes, nothing dies. So why did this?

[lilyvonpseudonym]

Here’s some to be going on with.

[lustyloveylady]

I’m not the only one who loves this show!?

[mousathe14]

I cannot recall a time people didn’t.

Mean look at this thing, it’s meme culture incarnate. It’s every perfectly crafted sardonic response. It’s the mood board of the day. It’s the reaction GIF that keeps on GIFfing and it’s not being embraced enough

Reasons Why You Should Join Team Sigurd: Besides his wholesome love for his wife Deirdre? Well he has to win something! We all know he didn’t get to win in his own game! I mean in One Chapter (yes just one, though it was a long one) he lost his father, lost his sister, lost his brother-in-law who was also one of his best friends, had to send his baby boy Seliph away to a safer place, and then learned that his wife had amnesia induced on her and married someone else right before he got barbecued via Valflame. So I guess what I’m trying to say is…his last like month of life sucked and it would be sweet if one of the most tragic Fire Emblem protagonist won. And if you didn’t know any of that about Sigurd before this post, well now you could be as sad about his fate as I am whenever I think about it. I apologize in advance.
