Thinking about how my grandfather said that a shaman once conjured up a ghostly beauty of a woman in front of him out of nowhere and he just went 'Okay so am I supposed to be impressed by that? Like yeah that's interesting but am I supposed to worship that? Nah it's just like, whatever right?'
Which I've always found frustrating enough to prevent me from getting into it tbh, just feels like there's something unhealthy and stifling in that level of Affini worship that reminds me of a very real fascist I spoke with.
Also my HDG girlfriend prefers mechsploitation now.

crime dog you gotta find some better wording for this
God fucking damnit who let Toshiki Inoue write for Absolute Batman.
The greatest lie that was ever told is the one that convinced us as a society that artists were never fairly paid for their labor before Life + 95 years after publication copyright became a thing.
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why....
I tried a couple and it's fun tbh, it's like chewing gum? You chew on it while doing anything else. Mostly worthless for me but if you're out on the mountains herding yak or just hike a lot it's good.
People are calling me puppygirl coded though because the Americans use them for dog treats.
No they're generally getting paid below minimum wage, there's a lot of neat tm accounting you can apparently do to legally not do that.
Getting real Aura Battler Dunbine vibes from this one, love it.
There's a shitload of very skilled, very passionate artists in Indonesia, it's just that most of the industry is designed around exploiting them for overseas clients. Long working hours, abusive bosses, extensive forced AI use, tight deadlines and bad pay, the lucky ones all jump ship.
Oida
I'm just saying, JRPGs aren't a like, dying or niche genre like news outlers were saying it was, so it's no real surprise that Clair Obscur had their pick of modules to lean into and tweak instead of trying to reinvent the wheel.
This is genuinely just smart prioritization.
Learning how niche indie projects fail is always fascinating to me, because Trench Crusade held off the genuine scum driven out of Warhammer only to like, jump off the balcony and break the fall with their face by signaling that actually any fanwork you made in their setting is legally their's now.
Y'all need to remember that tech companies have been cutting corners, dismantling repairability, and pushing for your system as a service for decades upon decades by now.
They can't make as much money if you don't constantly have to pay them for new parts and access!! It's basic economics!!!
a propos earlier convs about how some readers insist books must be first person, I was just checking something on Goodreads and someone's left a comment on one of my reviews saying "may I ask before I purchase - is the book in 1st person?"
It's a scholarly biography of Edward I.
Posted the latest chapter of Roaring Daimon Typh-Ea at the usual places and I've gotta say! I love writing largely unfulfilled spiralling yearning.

In another universe, Holly is a late 20s white woman experiencing a manic depressive episode where she insists on walking in as straight of a line as possible from California to Florida in order to raise awareness for mental health illness idk send tweet.
The really fucked up thing about the 30 minute to 5 hour dried yak cheese nepali 'candy' that tastes nearly like nothing but smoke that I needed to spend an hour constantly sucking and gnawing on to eat is that I kind of want another one.
That's what it says on the tin.
Sometimes I wonder if anything I make is good enough to show other people, but then I remember that Sausage Party not only got made, but it somehow has a multi season tv show sequel about the aftermath of food's genocidal uprising that features humans as mechs and an orange as Trump.
Really sucks that I still fuck with a few the Smiths songs considering what Morrissey ended up very proudly and openly being.
You will never believe what this article actually is.

My brother bought me a prank from Nepal, churrpi, the hardest cheese 'candy' in the world, it doesn't fucking taste like anything and feels like gnawing on a rock and it DOES NOT melt in your mouth and takes up to FIVE HOURS to chew through.
You don't have to apologize, good art takes a while especially if you're mostly doing it yourself.
Happy International Women's Day by the way.
Happy International Woman's day to Convenience store workers, Accountants, Fast food employees, Youtubers, Industrial engineering majors, sigma grindset south korean office women, and everyone else you're not thinking of when you thank us for being your wives, sisters, aunts, and mothers.
Analog horror must be devastating for powerscalers, your character of choice can have a forty five episode long feats laden show culminating in killing the Christian God and they'll still get mogged by a JPEG called some shit like the Hog Hopper, the Kansas Transphobe or Father Fester.
the sunglasses stay ON during my medically induced coma
Nothing exemplifies how fluid a storybible and outline always is better than the words 'end of chapter 1' at the end of the outline for Typh-Ea chapter 2.

'Well if we implied that the main character of this movie was gay we would have traumatized every kid watching it'
Bro it costs nothing to shut up.
But Ayato gives them nothing! He won't even admit that he likes and wants to protect Haruka from the giant monsters he has been fighting this whole time to his own tulpa and he's apparently supposed to get married to her in six episodes? Insane!
