hey guys i think simon iron lung being an engineer/mechanic adjacent in every wrong way possible DOES make sense, actually!!!!!! Because he was a part of the convict realization program that the coi put convicts through as a form of rehabilitation; which involves doing repairs and maintenance and construction
he knows how to do things he just doesnt know the words for any of them and hes not gonna read a manual about it and he also doesnt use the proper safety gear for it bc the coi never cared enough to spare those resources for convicts . hes crossing wires together with his bare hands and doesnt hesitate to do it because he actually doesnt know the sparks are gonna Get Him but hes done this work before with less preparation
my credentials are that i watched the movie three times, took 8 hours for one rewatch to comb through it in gross detail with my partner, then took literally two days to watch it a third time with them to comb thru it in gross detail even More with the digital release And i have watched the iron lung gameplays multiple times over
Polytrix are so falls first x falls harder x had to be told they fell and you can NOT convince me otherwise
Falls first:
Mira. 10000%. She’s incredibly emotionally intelligent and would recognize her growing feelings for Zoerumi very early on and does everything in her power to tamper down these affections. She can’t risk being selfish and asking for more of her new family, she can’t. She refuses to take a chance and potentially lose the two people who finally make her feel accepted, high aggression and short-fuse and bluntness and all.
Over the course of god knows how long, Mira Huntrix is a Certified Grade A Yearner™️ who absolutely refuses to act on her heartache. Despite her best efforts to get over her crush, Mira only falls deeper and deeper in love with them with no end in sight, much to her distress. Every warm touch, every soft look, every sincere word of praise- how could she not fall for them?? Ultimately, Mira settles with just carrying this secret burden around fer her two sole friends to her fucking grave and this love becomes a bruise that only hurts when she presses on it. As long as she stays realistic and doesn’t get her hopes up for some faraway fantasy, it doesn’t hurt that much anymore. It’s like a weight she’s learned to be okay with, her muscles are burningly sore and her back deeply aches from carrying around all this love that has nowhere to go and she’s learned to be okay with it (she has to be, she has to be, losing them is NOT an option).
Mira doesn’t expect Zoerumi to ever return these festering feelings, so while she’s not content per se she just kinda… learned to live with it.
Falls harder:
Zoey. I love Zoey to pieces and I love the idea of the super bubbly and affectionate character being completely blind to their own feelings until last minute even more. It’s not that she hasn’t been falling this whole time (because make no mistake oohhh brotherrr she has), it’s moreso her feelings have been growing over time but she doesn’t find out they even exist until she’s in way, wayyyy too deep. When realization hits Zoey, it hits her like a damn FREIGHT TRUCK all at once. Where Mira has been slowly falling deeper and deeper in love over the course of the past year or two but aware of her slow descent the whole time, Zoey is suddenly struck with a lightning bolt of, “These two are the love of my lifetimes and if I don’t kiss them RIGHT NOW I’m going to start causing problems” and is actively fighting for her damn life with this sudden crisis.
Between being starved for human connection and having crazy ADHD, Zoey really did believe their friendship was just friendship and didn’t think past that, her hyperfixations on music and such overpowering her Girlkisser Introspection. Zoey connects the dots during one seemingly mundane moment with her girls that suddenly rips away the blinders- and once she does? It’s all she can think about, completely filling her head and being poured out into notebook after notebook after NOTEBOOK. Zoey pines, and she pines hard, but unlike Mira she’s not meant for holding back and longing from afar. She just loves them SO, SO much and is crashing out hard and is completely and utterly Unnormal about it.
Having finally realized her feelings, it doesn’t take long until a series of impulsive decisions leads to a sudden confession, and this is how Zoemira get together pre-canon and bond over wanting Rumi so bad but acknowledging how she always keeps them at arm’s length
Had to be told they fell:
Which leaves Rumi. IN HER DEFENSE!! YOUR HONOR!! It’s really hard to sit down and have proper introspection on your feelings towards your literal soulmates when so much of your mind is occupied with crazy amounts of anxiety ( for how to hide your patterns), and guilt (for lying about said patterns), and shame (for the patterns themselves). Oh you best believe for the longest time she thought Zoemira were her two bestest friends in the world and wow isn’t genuine friendship with people who care about you and would kill for you and also bleed for you so great?? The way we are all so fiercely loyal to each other to the point of riding the line of between devoted and dependent is very normal friend behavior what are you talking about?
I love Rumi but pre-canon she was NOT in the headspace to dissect her complicated feelings for Zoemira, and even post-canon she’s floundering with, “I’m just deeply, DEEPLY attached to and super clingy with them because I almost lost them to Gwi-Ma, obviously.” Like girl. Girl no. You’re so, so close. Fer fuck’s sake even CELINE can see how wholly in love Rumi is for her girls. IF CELINE’S EMOTIONALLY CONSTIPATED ASS CAN CLOCK YOUR SHIT THEN YOU KNOWWW YOU IN DEEP!!! RYU RUMI FOR THE LOVE OF GOD AND MESSY SAPPHIC SITUATIONSHIPS LOCK THE FUCCKK IN AND NOTICE THESE TWO FLIRTING WIRH YOU IN INCREASINGLY UNSUBTLE WAYS!!!
Eventually Zoemira spell it out for her that yeah no yeah, we tried waiting fer you to figure it out yourself with some help of VERY heavyhanded hints in order to not pressure you with a confrontation but oh my god we can’t do this anymore, Rumi we’ve considered you our unofficial third for weeks now please get with the program already, and Rumi promptly bluescreens and speedruns flashbacks of the past few years before realizing. Oh. Oh. This makes sense. Too much sense. Let’s get married now :)
this popped up on my screen and i started laughing. have you ever seen someone get so astronomically outserved. like. what the hell. and then this game has the nerve to treat lotus like shes ugly because shes "old" ?????????? i dont actually remember how old she's supposed to be but i dont think it matters. what the hell. junpei shouldve died there that shouldve been my bad ending
First time work reached out for opinions on AI the form had an open box for comments.
This last time, post a three-day AI "training" session where they spent 80% of the time talking about how great AI is and 20% of it giving us marketing level examples of it, there was no open comment box on the feedback form.
Cowards.
Currently, Swipp's Swap Stand updates at the start of every even hour (2:00, 4:00, 6:00…). This can cause unpredictable issues during the start and end of Daylight Saving Time (DST), since the clock shifts at the same moment that Swipp restocks. To more reliably support the time change, we plan to update Swipp's Swap Stand to restock one minute after the hour rolls over. Offers will still be valid for two full hours, but those offers will start and end one minute later (2:01, 4:01, 6:01…) than they have in the past.
ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS to hear that timezone related stuff is still the bane of programmers everywhere. let's salute the one cleverly thought of minute shift to fix things
i have the most sickeningly gamer nerdass desktop setup ever maybe
i hate being pushed to use a different program or website or anything that already does the same thing i do but differently. why would i want to do that? if i can already do the exact same thing my way, it would be more efficient for me to keep doing it that way. unless this thing can offer me something new or better, there is zero reason to make the jump
people who tell you "just switch to linux" do not understand that someone who has used windows their entire life and is pretty casual about using their computer is going to be significantly worse off using anything else for a solid few YEARS. and if you arent getting deep into stuff, it will not offer the average person a new or better experience, just a different one
