The Seasons / The Skull / The gradual dissolution of everything

sad thing abt social turbulence is uh. ik you think your friends will stop being paranoid animals after the moment's passed, that theyll come back into the full of their richness. but theres really no guarantee, and many of them wont. your "conlangs and spec-fic and Delightful High-Flown Metaphysics" friend might stay in "the wolrd is going to facking hell... and i will be alone... time too play nintendo game..." mode for the rest of their life. whoops. its a very sticky little basin. when people avoid it its usually out of a conscious sense of personal dignity, and that can go away whenever, the moment youre convinced your dignity is a luxury "we" can no longer afford

if you remember anything, remember thats not how it works. this stuff (your hobbies your idiosyncracies your friction with others) is the rock of your being, there is no deeper stratum. you are not a soul

star citizen has primarily courted an audience of older people (guys in their 50s who mostly fell off games since their teens or early adulthood) by exploiting their lack of awareness about technology (how quickly a game of that scale can be made & what resources are necessary) to farm them for money they wouldnt have provided with more info. not literally an elderly scamming operation but definitely in conversation with the genre

thinking about project lawful again (again, again). maybe a lot of "writing memorable characters" is just giving them specific problems. if the problems you give your characters are nonspecific and their options for solving it are nonspecific, their reactions to it will tend to be nonspecific. themes sludge

im pretty sure this million word isekai ryona roleplay is my favorite written work of all time and no youre not allowed to put me down with a cattle gun. not yet.

hades & baldygate3 are two games that are kind of sold by their fans as like "bisexual paradise" while not really having very many attractive men or women, by dint of certain hard-to-define aesthetic sensibilities their visual artists (and writers?) were brought up on

Your art should be making my tiny cuckold penis much.. much harder. I will not correct you so twice. Now go.

i did have a vision of world of darkness but werewolves are replaced by wolves, 'wolf: the wolfpack' and theye 3d models of wolves that slide around when turning to face someone / jump at people with extremely regular speed and vector / etc

when they kill someone its like in gta rp where they go from like sitting in a chair to dying the way they would have if they were standing up

at first i wasnt affected by the fire walk with me ending the way everyone else seemingly was. whats the point of grace that comes after all that other shit happened, and not before? but then idk. 2-3 years ago we visited the small town my parents lived in for my infancy, after maybe 20 years away. i didnt think of it then, but what if the same cat we had decades ago came running around the back of the old house and came with us? a single miracle would be enough to hang a life on

kirby's the only nintendo series that justifies itself. time for a pivot a big big pivot. the kirby studio

think i said it before but i really like when shitty third-party ai platforms ban nsfw and their entire audience asks them why before leaving and the admins are just like.. idk

[sequred]

youre already getting a lot of "ai-ran businesses," its not a future thing, and in practice it seems to pretty much only be this and botting reddit threads

(gibbering at empty air the moment people leave earshot) THE STARS WOULD BE SO PROUD (memory studded with landmines) TO KNOW THEIR ATOMS (sexually fixating on chibi ewbcomic character from age 10 onwards) CREATED SOMEBODY LIKE YOU

i functionally only have moments of creativity when im angry or about to go to sleep. not so good

ethical progress, or since it can get stuck in stupid or pointless places we could just say ethical "movement," is always like waking from a dream.. with various possible reactions spreading outwards from that, but one of them is of course "hypocrisy," because you'll always abhor in your waking life things you wouldnt mind having dreamed of doing

you almost want to say that the people you were harming, before this new awareness stole over you, were also people living a dream, and also (inasmuch as they were suffering) suffering in the distinct way it happens in dreams, muted and opaque

when people are battered into "joining a side" theyre often pretty quick to forgive the battering. i dont know why, but if i was in their place, one mistake i see myself making is projecting the prev dynamic onto this situation, from the other side. someone hurts you, repeatedly, severely, and then theres a moment of revelation.. yours, when you decide to pass over onto their side. but how can you say they were living a dream? you cant really say that if you cant describe what it is theyve now woken up to

[monstrous war criminal dies at 90 surrounded by loving friends and family] oh yeah ohohoho yeahhhh thats right

a lot of the appeal of northernlion for people in these spaces is pretty obviously that he can speak out loud the sort of joke they write online without stuttering or mumbling or pooping himself a little. which is fine, we all occasionally think of ourselves as brock lesnars waiting for our paul heyman. but it does kind of just feel like getting really excited someone with your sense of humor has a lot of money. a large set of nuts, shapely penis
