Fox is yellow for me?

proud flicker

twilit quiver

Ah nice

Personally I wish I could be purple

proud flicker

Pastel pink for me :D

twilit quiver
#

Ooo, you should look at #deadaf it's a good pink

proud flicker
#

#

Just a random Google search but this looks nice

twilit quiver

Realized I could've just shown this emoji

proud flicker
#

Pink is good

#

I wonder how many people would stream their game in voice chat if we do have that option thanthink

bronze lintel
#

my friends and I do that from time to time

#

each of us do hades run and berates each other for making a terrible decision

#

or one guy plays, one guy pick the choices for them

#

one time my friend (who doesn't play hades at all) picked ares.... for my hidden blade run

#

twas fun

proud flicker
#

Imagine having friends who play Hades ๐Ÿ˜ข

bronze lintel
#

well I didn't invite them

#

per say

#

I just so happen play it, they want to see how it looked, stream aaaaaand the whole server is playing it

proud flicker
#

My friends aren't big into gaming

#

They do table top games instead

#

They think Portals is fast paced so they aren't touching Hades anytime soon lol

bronze lintel
#

one of my friend has muscle atrophy, can't really move his lower body. I stream for him from time to time

proud flicker
#

That's really nice!

tender cobalt
#

I have a mighty need to do pentakills after a horrible incident in FF.... but I will sleep it off, I guess

twilit quiver
#

My favorite scene in infinity war was at the end when thanos looks at the scene and says "ah yes I love men"

proud flicker
#

Sleep is good

#

Lmao

tender cobalt
#

Sleep is nice. I wish I could be like @tranquil bay and be able to fall asleep easily

Naps are the devil

If you take a nap your sleep schedule will be messed up

tranquil bay

that's not wrong but they feel nice all the way up until you wake up again ๐Ÿคช

proud flicker
#

I miss the days when my Mom forces me to take nap

bronze lintel
#

I hate it cause I know I need it, it's a day off like tomorrow but NOOOOOOO, you won't sleep later

tender cobalt
#

Thing is, when I go to sleep, I ponder about life and past experiences, regrets and sorrows and I then I try to picture Tatz as a pudding so I can distract myself

bronze lintel
#

why pudding?

arctic mica
#

I close my eyes and think about what a failure I am and how terrible my life is

bronze lintel
#

of all food?

arctic mica
#

Then I fall asleep

tender cobalt
#

Ask Tatz

proud flicker
#

When I close my eyes the cringiest moments of my life resurface.

arctic mica
#

Aye same

tranquil bay
proud flicker
#

Tatz explain yourself

tender cobalt
#

Tatz, do it

bronze lintel
#

I close my eyes, count the sheeps in my head, one, two, three four five everybody on the car so c'mon let's ride

#

to the liquor store right down the corner

Maybe I should start drinking to fall asleep thanthink

limber walrus
#

okay so
in my level 20 campaign, my DM has given us a limited-use ability to roll a d100 instead of a d12 for bardic inspiration

we've used this ability at least 9 or 10 times, and we've rolled above a 20 once

tender cobalt
#

Doggy, noooo~

bronze lintel
#

drank before sleeping once

#

awful mate

tender cobalt
#

What the... a d100 and that bad luck?

arctic mica
#

Take a melatonin or whatever

#

Drink chamomile tea

#

Cry

proud flicker
#

Don't recommend

bronze lintel
#

I downed like Soju + beer

tender cobalt
#

At 1st glance, Bardic inspiration sounds OP what with the possibility of a huge number but... that luck zaglol

bronze lintel
#

4 bottles I think

#

my head just wrecked by tomorrow

limber walrus
#

it's definitely OP, but this is a level 20 campaign so we've got some high-power stuff

proud flicker
#

Like 8 or 9 shots of vodka in 2 hours for me.

#

Which is a lot for me

bronze lintel
#

ngl, the taste was amazing

proud flicker
#

Fun fact, I played the Bastion soundtrack while doing that

#

One of the few things I remember from that night

#

And the next day I had mock trial xD

#

The hangover was brutal

bronze lintel

I played a session of monster hunter afterwards with random players

proud flicker
#

I played witness lol

bronze lintel

if I remember correctly one of the asked whether I was drunk or just bad ping

tender cobalt
#

OBJECTION!

proud flicker
#

OBJECTION, your Honor!
Why, counselor?
Because the evidence is devastating to my case.

bronze lintel
#

It's louis vuitton, my mom bought it with a large sum of money

arctic mica
#

OBJECTION!
The evidence being presented is incriminating!

proud flicker
#

Well ashctually it's called Exibit because evidence means it's already accepted

tender cobalt

Facts.

I wish I could play the Ace Attorney games I've missed but.... they aren't available for me ablobsigh

#

The trilogy's on steam

tender cobalt
#

Oh, I've played the trilogy and all up until Dual Destinies (except for Miles Edgeworth 2 because Japan)

I know they released more after that one... but I haven't been able to grab my hands on them and it makes me sad because I love that series

Oh! Sounds interesting PeachLovely

#

A kingdom of dragons!

#

My, I should try and go to sleep now. I guess I will put Wight in my thoughts as well and picture him as creme brulee

twilit quiver

Not a kingdom of dragons, just a kingdom ruled by a dragon

Sleep well!

Oh! I might poke you for more lore next time if you don't mind hehe blobowo

Already on it

just adds people and tells them that they reported you and try to forward you to a "steam admin"

He said what he accidentally reported me on steam and my steam profile will be blocked forever

Yep, same thing he said to me lol

Hah

This is a fairly common scam people attempt to pull, but I've yet to see anyone actually get blocked over it.

If you're DM'ed by someone claiming that they accidentally reported your Steam account, please block them and let one of the moderators know via DM so we can take care of the problem!

Hey everyone, been having issues with pyre's framerate specifically during the rites, does anyone have any solutions?

i tried the launch options on the official website but that doesnt seem to work

limber walrus

I'd probably reach out through https://www.supergiantgames.com/contact/ , I could give you a full list of launch options but I don't know how many of them were implemented for Pyre

Thought I'd ask here for some unbiased opinions. I'm debating on whether RDR2 or Cyberpunk would be best for me; Right now I'm thinking RDR2 is the better game, but I also need to have time constraints in mind. For people who have played RDR2, if I only play like 4-5 hours a week (1 1/2 hour sessions probs), would I still find this game enjoyable and not disjointed? Also, what do you people think the future of Cyberpunk will be like? Would it possibly reach RDR2's level?

twilit quiver
#

Rdr2 is better cause cyperpunk is a glitchy mess with built in transphobia. Unless you are pirating them, in which case I would say go for cyberpunk since yeah it's awful but you can laugh and cringe at times at it's awfulness

faint panther
#

Ok

dim estuary
#

So yeah, @faint panther I never really fit in as a male. I was born in a male body, I've never felt particularly effeminite, but I'm far to "feminine" to be in male spaces and not stick out. A lot of gender has to do with personal identity and not so much characteristics exusive to hormones.

hexed hollow
#

First off, gender identity is a spectrum it's not a two boxes of male, female

twilit quiver
#

Another thing with gender is how it's a social construct so some folks think they dont fit into said construct like me

faint panther
#

So you could identify as anything?

hexed hollow
twilit quiver
#

If you feel like it is really you then I don't see why not

faint panther
#

But what if people close to you find it weird to call you boy or girl instead of whatever you re identifying as

dim estuary
#

I mean, sure you could identify as anything. For me, I just know I'm outside the spectrum so I use the general label nonbinary.

faint panther
#

Wait

twilit quiver
#

If people have a problem with it, that's on them

faint panther
#

I typed it wrong

#

Ok so there's more than 2 genders

dim estuary
#

I think I got it. I don't particularly care what pronouns people use for me personally. For some people, that's important for their identity. But for me, I could care less. Whatever people see me as, they can ude.

faint panther
#

Does that apply to animals too?

twilit quiver
#

There is an infinite amount of genders yet their are no genders since in the end is just a social construct

#

No to animals since they don't have societies like us

dim estuary
#

Most animals are genderless since they don't have the social skills necessary to declare or identify with genders as a concept. They just are.

velvet fjord
fathom lodge
#

So even with my time constraints would you still say it would be fine?

faint panther
#

Where are you guys from?

velvet fjord
#

rdr2 would probably be fine, but be aware that its a more slow paced game

#

like a lot of time is spent moving from place to place

twilit quiver
#

USA for me

faint panther
#

I I ve seen

twilit quiver

faint panther

I ve seen

twilit quiver
#

Ah

faint panther
#

You reacted

twilit quiver
#

Yeah cause I wasn't certain if you were looking at chat passively or waiting for it to say there was a new message here

faint panther
#

I mute every server I'm getting on, so I gotta keep checking if I'm waiting for a message

twilit quiver
#

Huh lol

I missed gender talk huh

I did type something but deleted because it felt like oversharing. Maybe next time when it comes up organically again.

love that for them

queen blaze

I love the snark about them not wearing gendered clothing in the wild.

dry stratus
#

๐Ÿค” i will say that i wish to discuss my gender sometime too because i feel safe here. but i might do it another time

proud flicker
#

:D

bronze lintel
#

gender talk? sounds nice.

#

....what do you usually talk in gender talk?

proud flicker
#

idk anything?

dry stratus
#

there's a range of things to cover. i thought the brief animal talk was interesting

bronze lintel
#

I wanted to read that article

#

but my computer says no

dry stratus
#

basically lesbian penguin couple, who have been together for five years, was given an egg to take care of. the chick won't be labelled with a gender and won't be raised with a specific gender in mind. the penguins are gentoo.

bronze lintel
#

how did they get that conclusion?

dry stratus
#

GM said that it is normal in the wild for penguin chicks to be raised with genderless identities until they're adults

cursive pivot
#

lesbian penguin?

dry stratus
#

two lesbian penguins

dim estuary
#

It is a known fact that gay male penguins will raise the orphans of the colony and care for them exactly like they would their own young.

#

it has been noticed a while ago, that animals raised in captivity are more likely to be homosexual.. it's not certain, if the reason is they don't need to survive so hard, as in the wild, or bc they have not much other options sometimes

proud flicker
#

erm damn chem trails captivity turning the frogs penguins gay????

mild pelican
#

i don't think you can turn someone gay or so.. even with 5G

# fathom lodge Thought I'd ask here for some unbiased opinions. I'm debating on whether RDR2 or...

well, let's see.. RDR2 has a long story, that is developing quite slowly. half an hour will be probably enough for 1 mission or some other non-story activity. the game is at this point considered to be a time consumer, with slow-paced and relaxing gameplay. most of the time you just wander and watching the nature, that is yet unharmed.
CP77 is much faster, with more action. it's hard to compare the story length, bc more things happen in less hours. you also can spend around half an hour for another part or some sidequests. The game was also supposed to be a meditative experience, with neon lights of a dystopian city, but technical performance can get in the way. Or not, depends on your system.
Will CP77 reach the level of RDR2 is hard to say, i doubt anything can ever reach it, with the amount of details put into it, and the Rockstar crunch can't even be compared with CDPR crunch.. but knowing the authors of Witcher, they are able to make an eventually good product. if they are allowed to, that is.

#

to summarise, if you're looking for something to get relaxed after work, you would probably like to get a more stable product, which is RDR2

bronze lintel
#

there's a certain caveat with RDR2, you need to have a lot of spare time to effectively enjoy RDR2. Everything is meticulous and takes time.

#

I binged RDR2 for a week

#

it was awesome

mild pelican
#

yes, RDR2 is certainly longer, like, a lot. even though most of the time is just riding, but still

#

it's an enjoyable time

bronze lintel
#

even something as simple as skinning an animal takes like half a minute

#

okay maybe skinning an animal is not as simple as I said

#

but you get the point

fathom lodge
#

So most despite my time constraints, you guys believe that it won't really ruin the enjoyment?

#

Idm doing stuff like skinning, as long as after each session I feel like I acomplished something and that time was worthwhile

mild pelican
#

not really for both games. it's more of a question how much can you do during given time

fathom lodge
#

Makes sense... If you were in my position though, would u still choose Red dead?

mild pelican
#

hard question.. I would prefer some game, where I can feel like at home and truly set mind at peace

#

which would be skyrim

#

well, my friend liked the world of RDR2 better, but she didn't even started the singleplayer campaign. for almost 2 years she plays RDO, and that's enough for her.. Cyberpunk was also one of the most awaited games for her, but sad story and lack of male romance options disappointed her.. still liked the setting though

bronze lintel
#

I'd pick CBP

How do you use Twitter?

gusty lark
#

Nobody knows, really.

dry stratus
#

i like twitter. took me 5 or more years to understand how it works

tranquil bay
#

as someone who has been on bird site for far too many years, you don't

dry stratus
#

i will criticize its bad tagging system ๐Ÿฅฒ

#

and search system ๐Ÿฅฒ

tranquil bay
#

hashtags are meant to boost content more than like. organize.

gusty lark
#

I will criticize its tendency to create too much focus on random people

simple owl
dry stratus
#

yeah... journalism classes helped me understand why twitter is like that with the tags

tranquil bay
#

every day i miss tumblr tagging so i can find things again but also tumblr croexpired

proud flicker
#

Still have 0 clue what yall are talking about

dry stratus
gusty lark
#

You might be better off.

#

Twitter is sort of useful when big events are happening.

#

Otherwise I'd say it's harmful more than not.

simple owl
dry stratus
#

fox if you are an adult and want someone to follow on there, i'd gladly dm you my profile link. otherwise, twitter is... okay

simple owl
tranquil bay
#

twitter is very much reactionary, in the "now." i like it on the aspect of like.... not feeling obligated to be a part of conversation, i can just pop in and out on a whim. which is kinda entirely what it's built around

simple owl
#

especially around global events , or in a... cancel moment

dry stratus
gusty lark
#

I've seen some drama generated due to rather old tweet.

#

tweets* even

simple owl
#

dramas*

gusty lark
#

ahaha

proud flicker
#

thanthink I'll just follow some game devs and check in once in a blue moon lol

dry stratus
#

yeah people digging up other's tweets from when they were eleven and hitting them with the 'this u?' like it's not weird to go to those lengths

#

ah, there's a twitter list or so of indie devs. twitter lists in general might help w that

simple owl
#

ohhhh, the amount of "this u?" is too dang high

gusty lark
#

Yeah so in that sense Twitter is not just about the "now".

simple owl
#

and there's Topics
way better to sort stuff you like

gusty lark
#

But in terms of active topics or "main characters", that focus can be very short-term attention span.

dry stratus
tranquil bay
#

it's one thing if someone clearly hasn't changed, then their past behaviour is a good indicator of how they still are but. digging up dirt on someone because you don't like them is so.. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ you need help

dry stratus
#

yeah, i follow the gymnastics topic. it's intoresting

#

yeah i'm fully talking people digging up dirt from years back, not months or hours back

#

and actively pursing change is very important

proud flicker
#

God I hope no one digs up what I said on FB in middle school lmao

simple owl
#

We're talking scrolling all the way to the first couple tweets just to start trouble

gusty lark
#

I miss the relative anonymity and ephemerality of forums

dry stratus
#

yeah been thinking abt forums lately. saw something recently that argued that, yes, people online have really been this vicious all this time, it's just that the viciousness was confided to forums, not on social media

tranquil bay
#

i do miss forums. like actual moderated spaces where people had to learn to behave and not act unhinged on twitter dot com ๐Ÿคช

gusty lark
#

Yep. Small time viciousness on a moderated niche of the internet that'll go down in flames in a few years is much less harmful overall that posts on a global site being saved, forever, and possibly tied to your name

#

Yeeeeeep

y'AlL cAn'T bEhAvE
I've seen these words enough to know mods

dry stratus
#

๐Ÿคง i think the only forum i know about are webcomic forums

simple owl
#

|| reddit mods are a different type of mods||

tranquil bay
#

no

#

i specified "actual moderated spaces"

dry stratus
#

reddit moderation never fails to disappoint but literally

tranquil bay
#

like forums that had a real moderator presence

gusty lark
#

A proper forum is not part of a global social network is your clue.

#

So steam, reddit, etc. fail automatically

simple owl
gusty lark
#

So a forum is usually owned by a random person who decided to make a forum, which means there's a possibility of them moderating it properly

#

whereas big co's are generally too squeamish for that

tranquil bay
#

reddit moderation is a tossup because some subs will actually vet candidates for their mod team (rarely!) while most other subs is like. someone and their friends or someone who paid to have power, so then you get the awful moderation

dry stratus
simple owl
#

but as usual, Bad things cover the good ones

upbeat scroll
#

I do really hate the forum interface. every conversation is its own thread... bluh

#

moderation is cool and good

dry stratus
#

yeah one of the subs i'm in is run by a pair of friends who run a sister page on facebook? and because of that, the sub has a chaotic, though well-meaning vibe. it's interesting to see how attitudes towards certain platforms carry onto others

simple owl

#

Discord has been a good time waster for me since the pandemic tbh

dry stratus
#

yesss. i've been getting back into discord servers because of it and it's been fun

#

i still need to ask about discord servers squirtdevious but at a later time

simple owl
#

2017 me will not think that his discord server list would get beyond one or two ( cuz there was only two irl friends who I knew)

#

annnd here I am with 40ish servers

proud flicker
#

15 total, active in like 6 ish

gusty lark
#

I can barely handle 3 atm.

simple owl
#

I'm in the servers for
A. My friends gave me the link to it
B.in it for the news
C. really really active in

dry stratus
#

๐Ÿฅด i'm finding it increasingly difficult to find interesting servers unfortunately

gusty lark
#

I mean most servers are for purpose really right

simple owl
#

^

proud flicker
#

yeah, im mostly on game servers

dry stratus
#

๐Ÿค” yes. but purpose does not always guarantee interest

gusty lark
#

There is, unfortunately, no straightforward way to find a server with like "interesting people discussing interesting things". ๐Ÿคฃ And that's subjective ofc

simple owl
#

**YOU ** are going to search for your own server and you're going to like it!

dry stratus
#

๐Ÿคญ

#

that's very true

simple owl
#

I'm in two servers for the news, really

proud flicker
#

we have news server?

dry stratus
#

๐Ÿค” how do they compare to receiving news from other places?

simple owl
#

for example
I have a server that tells me about patch notes (like r/overwatch server, mainly because i'm too lazy to check the website)
and another one to tell me about Riot Games in general (like Surrender@20 Server)

proud flicker
#

oh makes sense

simple owl
#

for which I've made a webhook into my own server so I can get pinged for it too ( and others too)

mild pelican
#

i also miss forums as a thing. i've bascially started my internet life with them. with actually good moderation, actually reasonable people, local memes, same people who are absolutely not famous outside of the forum.. you could care less about what others will say, you could say what you're thinking, just be polite and it's ok.. or not, depends on the forum

gusty lark
#

you could care less about what others will say, you could say what you're thinking

#

That's the part I miss the most

#

these things most things are recorded and everything you say ends up political one way or another

now when communities shifted to big social medias, that feel of people being close vanished, you're not in a cozy club anymore, you're at the city square, where everyone is screaming.. everything you say and do is recorded by site owners and/or your government, it doesn't matter anymore, how are you speaking, *what *you're speaking matters most.. please everyone or suffer.. or get banned.. or in a jail.. or executed..

#

you never know, who will listen to you and when, and will them understand you, will them share you view at least remotely

#

i've never used twitter, i have literally made an account in december to contact a certain person

same with reddit, with destiny subreddit years ago

gusty lark
#

Yeah, I'm on a decent amount of subreddits for info gathering, but not a good place to interact with people.

#

Destiny subreddit is so negative tho. ๐Ÿคฃ

mild pelican
#

tbh, Discord is the closest thing we can get to forums now, it has similar feel of closed small community, even though it's open for everyone

gusty lark
#

Discord is still globally recorded so... EH.

mild pelican
#

forums were also recorded, but it would take a day to dig down to beginnings

#

the things we discussed here a year ago are also recorded, but idk how long it will take to scroll up there

gusty lark
#

Forums would frequently die though and the recording was generally by... a random wanting to record. Either the admin, or someone spidering the forums.

mild pelican
#

and there are also closed discussions, unavailable to those who are not a member

gusty lark
#

But Discord seems to go forever and the info is stored with the Discord company.

mild pelican
#

i just hope Discord wouldn't be bought by some huge market player, like Google or Amazon, or whatever

#

Skype degraded quickly after it became a part of Microsoft

#

and we can say goodbye to last bits of privacy

Social integration

#

Discord now requires real name, SSN, and driver license

#

You will need to log in with your Facebook account.

It's fun, you can see what server your friends are on

yeah

#

and who cares if i don't want them to know i'm a member of a furry server.. or star citizen server

@brittle tree continuin here bc its more general myth but

#

there was literally exactly one woman zeus directly went "no i will not have a child with her nope nope nope"

#

i forget her name atm

limber walrus
brittle tree
#

i think he once tried to impregnate a woman as a shower of golden coins or something? and also as a goose? it was sort of his gimmick

sterile axle
#

it was just a golden shower

#

literaly

#

yeah alot of times he just

#

turned into an animal

#

but TYPICAL HERA

#

VICTIM BLAMING

#

scorned only the woman

arctic mica
#

hera definitely put her anger on the wrong people lol

sterile axle
#

tbf it was all men writing the myths

#

so why would men be wrong

#

bc women arent actually people, theyre property

#

(in ancient greece)

brittle tree
#

that persephone feel

sterile axle
#

Hades def softended it

#

bc original telling is usuaully that either poseidon or zeus kidnapped her for hades

#

speaking fo which i have never heard a telling where persephone has a mortal father

brittle tree
#

yeah that was an interesting choice

#

i think it works for her character

#

and also makes zagreus one quarter mortal

hello can anyone here answer a question i have about hades?

To eat or not to eat a chocolate cupcake as breakfast. Therein lies the dilemma ๐Ÿง

simple owl
#

hmmm
it is the Intricacy of a chocolate cupcake that makes it a good breakfast
but surely it is incredibly rare to see, let alone hear about someone making chocolate cupcakes as their favorite breakfast meal

tranquil bay
#

i mean that depends entirely on how your stomach handles it lol. for instance, i cant eat sweets early in the morning because my innards will protest and i will feel horribly sick for half the day

simple owl

^

fervent orchid
#

oh true mhmm

fervent orchid

well, you can alway balance said cupcake with something light like tea or plain milk

(if you like those options xD)

I donโ€™t need to bake them because I made them last night so they are there, waiting to fulfill their destiny

i'm afraid they will become stale later, so why keep them waiting

oh well then, we can't keep said cupcakes from their destiny! shadesmile

Hmm I was hungry but now I want cupcakes...or chocolate muffins...

Curse ye!

(I just ate a couple of chocolates so no temptation rose from this chat shadesmile )

limber walrus

Hmm...I do have chocolate cookies...

But only a couple left...

simple owl

hey, all chocolates are equally awesome

limber walrus

Hard disagree

Though I guess you might not even consider stuff like Hershey's to be chocolate

*To be clear, not dissing people who enjoy Hershey's, it's just not my thing

fervent orchid

I do love Lindt chocolates tho shadesmile

simple owl

(yeah ik what dark chocolate is)

tranquil bay

dark chocolate is god tier for me but i just. cannot handle overly sweet things. the bitterness to dark chocolate is more tolerable, im super picky about my milk chocolate zaglol

limber walrus
#

However

#

I finished my chocolate yesterday

#

So I'm sad

#

And might need to go buy more

#

I've had 90% one time

tranquil bay
#

73-85% is def the sweet spot, ive done 90 but thats like. if its there and i want some chocolate, not something i would pick

limber walrus
#

Yeah

#

70% + a fruit/berry is also top-tier

tranquil bay
#

i have some... i think its 73 orange in the fridge

limber walrus

Oooh

fervent orchid
#

chocolate + salt is niice. also chocolate with pepper

limber walrus
#

Can I steal?

simple owl
#

truly an interesting observation ngl

limber walrus
#

Not much for pepper but salt is zagluv

fervent orchid
#

oof I do not vibe with chocolate with orange, so your fridge is safe from me xD

#

dark chocolate with pepper is something to have a little piece once in a while asdljasdk

#

also, after trying out Lindt's white chocolate, I don't want white chocolate from anyone else. it just FAILS to taste as good as Lindt's ๐Ÿ˜”

limber walrus

The only thing better than white chocolate is white hot chocolate

I have hot chocolate mix

fervent orchid
#

dang, this winter I didn't have any of the great hot chocolate I indulged in a lot last winter ๐Ÿ˜” for two reasons: pandemic and no longer working at the store that gave me the chance to have said hot chocolate

dry stratus

๐Ÿ‘€

limber walrus

I can go get white hot chocolate

This is very tempting

dry stratus

chili hot choc is my fave

ok ok, who here knows Kinder chocolate? ๐Ÿ‘€

limber walrus

I know of it

dry stratus

kinder is where it's at

tranquil bay

im german (born) so im well aware of kinder schokolade

limber walrus

But I'm a filthy american so it's illegal :3 (I had some when I went to England so I know what it's like)

dry stratus
#

going to the duty free choc stores at airports and buying their oversized chocolate bars was my jam

#

their bueno bars, too

tranquil bay
#

my oma used to smuggle kinder eggs in her winter packages to us when i was a kid, those were the good days

limber walrus
#

Hahaha

fervent orchid
#

niice, good to see some kinder chocolate appreciation here shadesmile

#

it's a staple of my childhood and I am not ashamed of indulging in a kinder egg at least once a year xD

#

it's so crazy that kinder is illegal on the us xD

dry stratus

I like the lil eggs they have with crunchy pieces in them

fervent orchid
#

ohh yeah, they're delicious!

#

also, the white kinder bueno bars chef's kiss (wait, is it called bueno everywhere? thanthink )

fervent orchid

I now have a deer kinder plushie shadesmile for christmas there were some special packs with mixes and an extra gift. me and my sister got them for christmas. and I got a deer plushie :D

#

I'm not a fan of the texture of it, it tastes good but the texture and I... we don't mix well asldkjas

dry stratus

yeah the texture is cursed but the cereal itself is good??

tranquil bay
#

being turned off to weird textures gang...

dry stratus

LOL weird textures for me is coconut rough chocolate

tranquil bay

you immediately lost me at coconut

#

i cannot stand it, the taste of it, the smell of it

Do you like live in hawaii?

I like eating white chocolate even though it's not real chocolate

dry stratus
#

the highest percentage in dark chocolate I can take atm is 90%

limber walrus

I've gone higher than that, though it's kind hard to find sometimes

dry stratus
#

99% is the highest I've seen and I don't plan on willingly trying it

simple owl
#

as if there's people willing to reach these levels....

#

oh wait

mortal brook
#

I don't rly like dark chocolate

dry stratus

people who like tobacco notes like 99%

#

I grew up on dark chocolate but white choc is my fave ๐Ÿคญ

mortal brook
#

I read a short story about greek gods in the modern world once and they got power through zodiac themed sacrifices

but it gets all political at the end so im not linking it here

And y'all discussing dark chocolate while I buy 2 packs of baking chocolate and eat that instead lol.

#

Being poor is awesome xD

limber walrus

yo baking chocolate, especially those giant bags of baking chocolate chips

#

that stuff slaps

proud flicker
#

I know

#

No regret

#

It's a few bucks for a gigantic bag

limber walrus
#

like, I'm in a place rn where I can get decent chocolate, and I'll still grab a small handful of those every once in a while cause they're just good

mortal brook
#

Baking chocolate? I heard that tasted terrible

#

Maybe I was confusing that with eating cocoa

#

I've never had coconut stew with pork but sounds yummy

proud flicker
#

Yeah it's like a sticky tender pork dish. Pork + soy sauce + seasoning + coconut milk braised in like a couple of hours.

i wish sweet stuff would be cheaper at my place.. the most famous sorts of chocolate are also the most expensive ones..

there's a difference between being actual garbage and being * funny *

tranquil bay
#

generally speaking bc the self deprecating humour comes up a lot here too. but its still something to keep in mind. you shouldnt be so hard on yourself regardless. its not going to make you feel better, its not going to change what happened. its nothing anyone wants to hear but the best thing you can do for yourself is examine the situation, what was said, how it went wrong, and do better in the future

hexed hollow
#

and if these thoughts are a constant thing or happening a good amount of the time it's very possible you might need professional help and there's no shame in that

simple owl
#

the "don't be hard on yourself"
and also don't try to make everyone happy

forest basalt
#

i already hate myself this is nothing new, i have gotten "professional" help and that made it worse. she always compared me to other people and how fast her other patients got "better" and it completely demotivated me. i go to school, i play video games till 11 then i go to sleep

tranquil bay
#

honestly that sounds bad on her part, not yours

hexed hollow
#

that sounds like a terrible therapist

#

and that's not your fault at all

simple owl
#

woah, that ain't professional

hexed hollow
#

it can take a number of tries to find someone who clicks with you

forest basalt
#

i think she was trying to motivate me with "this person did it this fast, you can do it faster!"

hexed hollow

just because it doesn't work the first time doesn't mean it will never work

#

yeah, that's not a great practitioner at all

I remember when I sucked at memorizing the times table back and people were like "it's easy wdym"

I'd say wait a couple weeks/months until you can find a better one

the reason why i stopped going was because my therapist was a tinfoil hat the world is ending kinda person

simple owl

jeeeez

human malware (covid) complicates a lot of things unfortunately
hope you'll be able to find someone who can help, if you can do consultations over some form of video calling service that might even be best just to avoid any potential human malware

it's alright, keeping it inside and not expressing yourself about it makes it even worse

not to make this about gender but i was raised as "boys don't cry" and "if you were a real man..." i feel a decade ago that was a pretty hardcore stereotype

simple owl
#

it was, and sometimes it still is

arctic mica
#

I think that's a dumb stereotype

forest basalt
#

i was told you're not allowed to show your emotions essenially

hexed hollow
#

you're not wrong, that is fairly common in how people AMaB (assigned male at birth) where and still are brought up

arctic mica
#

I think that's a terrible thing to teach children cause then they'll keep all their emotions bottled up

#

And one day it'll all come pouring out

forest basalt

OOOHHHH

that's where my self deprecating sense of humour came from

limber walrus
#

Boink

simple owl
#

who in the world puts the i in Boink?
what purpose does it serve to be put in such a word?

proud flicker
#

It's to signify the metallic ring after you hit a metal pipe

#

at least in my interpretation

simple owl
#

Shouldn't Bonk be the general standard then?

proud flicker
#

Yeah, same with dog

#

But doggo is also acceptable.

limber walrus
#

Bonk is for bonking things

Boink is for when something goes "boink"

simple owl
#

Can you elaborate more on things that "Boinks" other than Metallic pipes?

limber walrus
#

Drops of water that are too large for a "plink"

simple owl
#

hmm, I've never heard water Boinks but hey, I'll take your word for it

limber walrus
#

Something bouncing with a "boing" but hitting something before the "g" so it's a "boin-k"

simple owl
#

while on that matter, we should diversify Bonk and Boink into even more Bo**(insert letter here)**nk words

I "see" bonk and boink as two different sounds, but I'm afraid my headache is blocking any more brain energy to develop on that ๐Ÿ˜”

#

like boonk

#

sounds like a west European is trying to say Bonk

fervent orchid
#

feels like a low sound, with little "echo" to it ๐Ÿค”

#

omg now that you said it, it does

simple owl
#

and also Boank, that one should describe the Error sound effect in windows 10

#

"hey , my app has crashed, and it said Boank before it closed"

#

remember, letters between Bo and nk

forest basalt
#

bobnk

proud flicker
#

I feel like Boink also implies a bounce

simple owl
#

that sounds like a ballon jumping

proud flicker
#

Bonk is a hit, Boink is a bounce off a hit.

simple owl
#

like a ricochet of a hit?

proud flicker
#

yeah

simple owl
#

bonk, boink

proud flicker
#

that works lol

simple owl
#

somehow I thought about it heard in an old Wild west film

forest basalt
#

i feel like pog should be an onomatopoeia

simple owl
#

Hey Blonde, bong
Hey Rat, bong boing

proud flicker
#

Is it bad that I start to use Pog IRL?

#

Like when I play games with friends

#

I say that's p pog lol

forest basalt
#

i use pog i don't care if it's cringe

simple owl
#

ayooo thats pooog

proud flicker
#

lmao

simple owl
#

I remember when me and my sweaty friend duoq'd for some quickplay, and we got 3 girls in the VC
and he got the POTG they all cheered up for him
and I just said "welp, that's your pogchamp moment I guess"

#

cheered up for him as in "OMG THAT is so amazing and skillful, who are you??"

forest basalt
#

wow i wish i had ladies on me like this guy

simple owl
#

hey, it was one match and they left , so it doesn't really matter

#

and besides , he mains hanzo

forest basalt
#

i'm the worst kind of lady magnet

#

they all want to be my friend

simple owl
#

and you just...

#

awkwardly try to slip yourself out?

#

like what?
I'm kinda a bit lost, I can't take a hint or two

forest basalt
#

nevermind

dry stratus
#

so you're under 18?

forest basalt
#

why?

dry stratus
#

volfredthink love is very intense at that age

proud flicker
#

^

forest basalt
#

i just need someone Sadge

#

i'm lonely

dry stratus
#

not even sage. just sadge

#

speaking of volfredpride emoji. love is intense at that age and I helped some people in high school to realise that they weren straight

forest basalt
#

i'm straight i'm almost certain

proud flicker
#

so bi?

simple owl
#

Listen man, I'd say loving at age that early is early

forest basalt
#

i'm the basic white male

dry stratus
#

bi or unlabelled

proud flicker
#

I told my therapist I refused a girl and she asked if I was gay xD

#

nah just demisexual

forest basalt
#

i just don't understand sexuality, that's why i'm basic

dry stratus
forest basalt
#

i stick to they/them because it's hurts nobodys feelings and i struggle being woke

simple owl
#

Even someone just straight up said "don't come close to my gf"

forest basalt
#

there's this chick at my school who screams at everyone to not be homophobic, but her means are very aggressive

simple owl
#

and I was like "Idk about that BS, what I care about is studying and that's it"

#

and later on she was like "oh no im sorry" and what not
I said 'hey, that is for your so called BF that is envious so I don't take you"

#

Legit I've only talked to girls because talk and that's it

#

so yeah, not the best guy for talking with girls
althought we have one for that and I call him the "hunter"
he sweats so hard for that mercy egrils

forest basalt
#

everybody around me is in a relationship i just feel pressured

dry stratus
#

i saw the relationships in all my high schools and felt no pressure ๐Ÿคช

limber walrus
#

My philosophy has always been friends first, relationship later, and so far it's worked out pretty well. If you're looking for a relationship for the sake of being in a relationship, it's not gonna be as fulfilling, and you're not going to get as much out of it

simple owl
#

also Agree with Swan, doing something for the sake of it will not work

dry stratus
#

like witnessing high school relationships is a sure fire way to get someone to be confused by the whole relationship thing

simple owl
#

and don't try to make everyone happy, some will try to bait you

forest basalt
#

my school is about to force everyone to go back to school, prolly make it worse. just ignoring everything seems like the best thing to do, but it;s not that easy.

simple owl
#

I believe that you have the strength to do it

mild pelican
#

school is a perfect social model to form numerous inferiority complex..

forest basalt
#

especially when half of the people there keep reminding you that they're better

mild pelican
#

sometimes people have to keep in mind that not everyone they have to see each day has a perfect complete personality, and most probably they are wrong, even if they are in majority

forest basalt
#

my school is a cesspit, and everyone there knows it.

mild pelican
#

a decent school with nice and caring classmates, i think, so rare that it can exist only in fairytales..

simple owl
#

that is once in a never

dry stratus
#

๐Ÿ˜ถ I was lucky enough to get to go to one

simple owl
#

but the school i was in the us had an anti bully or something, where a police cop sitting in each school so no one was worried about that

dry stratus
#

would count my online school if the teachers there let us socialize online shakes fist

forest basalt
#

in my online classes we talk about politics for the first 40 minutes of class

#

it's a 50 minute period

simple owl
#

talk about High class discussions

#

we barely even speak outside of "is everybody in here?"

forest basalt
#

it's only my first 2 periods

dry stratus
#

I went to a pre-covid online school. online schools in a pre-covid world were different

gusty lark
#

politics in class? damn, modern schooling is something

forest basalt
#

we had a debate on biden or trump

dry stratus
#

yeah. I know the online school had a philosophy class, and my irl school would talk about that kinda stuff on the reg

forest basalt
#

it was heated to say the least

gusty lark
#

if it's a dedicated class that makes sense, that sounded more just a random class ๐Ÿ˜„

#

discussing politics in calculus ๐Ÿ˜„

mild pelican
#

let me guess, the teacher had an estabilished opinion

forest basalt
#

it was social studies so it makes minimal sense

gusty lark
#

ahh yes

simple owl
gusty lark
#

social studies is such an odd course

forest basalt
dry stratus
#

oh tbh even talking about morals could be acceptable in our math classes, considering we learnt about stuff like doing taxes and basic construction planning

mild pelican
#

well, on the one hand it's a lucky situation

dry stratus
#

real world stuff ๐ŸŒ

tired schooner
#

imo its at least worth talking about, this election has been historically unprecedented so may as well talk about it in history class

forest basalt
#

math is strictly math at my school, maybe it's the teacher but we only ever do pink floyd references and math

mild pelican
#

not like in my country, where teachers aren't allowed to share "wrong" political views

dry stratus
#

lol we did acdc references, useful math, and discussions about anything ranging from alternative schooling to school in rural areas

mild pelican
#

about another brick in the wall?

forest basalt
#

he likes "i wish you were here"

#

like when he disconnects from zoom he goes "Is there anybody out there?"

mild pelican
#

sigh.. i wish my every teacher would even understand the references

forest basalt
#

i'm the only person who listens who listens to pink floyd so i always have to respond with "I wish you were here"

#

best pink floyd album?

gusty lark
#

My answer would be "depends on my mood". ๐Ÿ˜„

simple owl
#

tripping the bot, you were

forest basalt
#

i did keyboard spam and proxy bot said to watch my language

#

lmaoo

mild pelican
#

bruh

gusty lark
#

I liked Division Bell, even though it's not as popular.

#

Especially the PULSE cover of High Hopes.

mild pelican
#

well, bot here has its own opinions on what's bad wording

gusty lark
#

lol

forest basalt
#

i like animals, i like music with deeper meanings

#

that's why i like gorillaz

twilit quiver
#

Monkey

forest basalt
#

nomkey

simple owl
#

komney

mild pelican
#

also animated performers is not a very common thing

#

especially with a unique artstyle

forest basalt
#

didn't they pioneer it

mild pelican
#

i guess so

forest basalt
#

i stand by that gorillaz live performances are very ehh

mild pelican
#

long time passed before their deanonimization

forest basalt
#

the visuals are very cool but the remixes they do are god awful

#

DARE at the manchester opera hall haunts me in my dreams

dry stratus
forest basalt
#

yep that's it

#

i hate it

#

just listen to the good version on spotify

#

good version

mild pelican
#

i guess, we're allowed to talk musics here, right? bc local channel is for sharing mostly

forest basalt
#

general means anything right?

simple owl
#

"mods are sleeping"

mild pelican
#

guess so

forest basalt
#

i love the Demon Days art style so much

simple owl
#

hi mods squirtyay

mild pelican
#

what i also find interesting in Gorillaz, is that their songs are not all similar, every one is unique in some way

forest basalt
mild pelican
#

when you hear another new one, on a radio, maybe even singing it in a kitchen, and then someone is like, "oh, i know that song, it's Gorillaz", and you're like WAT

forest basalt
#

Their Self titled album was to cement themselves in every genre, including spanish music.

#

Demon Days was to tell everyone we are not just a gimic we make real music.

#

Plastic Beach is a blast to the past of like 70's-90's music.

#

We don't talk about Humanz.

#

The Now Now is basic but good.

#

And Song Machine is pure beauty of artistic ability.

#

sorry i'm fanboying

mild pelican
#

is it bad though

forest basalt
#

all of their albums of good even Humanz.

#

Some songs just fall flat even though they are good.

mild pelican
#

well, it's actually the usual thing, some songs gets more popular for every group or singer

#

especially when we're talking about someone so diverse in creation

forest basalt
#

valid point i just think songs like (Bad Word) Murder Party are absolute garbage.

#

And Humanz is just anti-trump propaganda

#

The message was more basic than their other albums

#

I scared everyone off, i'm sorry

mild pelican
#

well, when someone of art tries to go political, it's always a risk

#

you're either dedicated to that, as some kind of a rebel voice, a herald of era, or, well..

forest basalt
#

Damon said he didn't want to release but so much money would have been lost if he held it back so he went ahead and released it.

simple owl
mild pelican
#

get a reputation of easy-bought agitator

forest basalt
mild pelican
#

now to think of it.. it's unsettling, that most of the "heralds of era" from early 90s in my country are now dead for various reasons

forest basalt
mild pelican
#

it is

forest basalt
#

oh you edited it sorry

mild pelican
#

can't get used to quotes near enter

simple owl
#

I don't usually use my spotify often, but has enough musics and yet more musics to be added on

forest basalt
simple owl
#

It has enough top pop songs from 2016-2018, and also a couple that I liked just because "I" heard them

forest basalt
#

Song Machine Season Two is in the works currently.

simple owl
#

thanthink
I have my 100-ish songs on playlist that I shuffle whenever I'm in a heavy work (especially crunch work)

mild pelican
#

my parents had a tape recorder, and they used to buy blank tapes to record various songs they liked, from TV or radio.. i tried to continue their legacy and most of my playlist is also made from radio records or mp3s borrowed from different people..

forest basalt
#

i have about 2000 in my playlist, 36 hours worth of music

forest basalt
#

i was too poor to buy music legally

simple owl
#

and most of them are either kinda weird to have them included in one place , like some of them is musics from Guardians of the Galaxy, some of them is from games (and yes, other ones from Darren) , and ones are just like in there because I loved

#

and ones that remind me that I have a weird place attachment

forest basalt
#

i only have one playlist it's just easier

simple owl
#

I wasn't a music-guy, until that one pesky halsey fan just shoved one of her's into my playlist

mild pelican
#

it was hard to buy music legally at our place, mostly tapes and discs were pirate stuff as well.. rare licensed musics used to cost so much, noone would even bother buying them

simple owl
#

Spotify surely has saved us a lot of trouble in that regard

forest basalt
#

weird how unprogressive humanity is

mild pelican
#

on the other hand, i still tend to download everything i like, because, who knows what can happen

simple owl
#

|| and also soundcloud if you prefer it raw||

mild pelican
#

we're living in that era, when all the content you used to like can just disappear from the internet forever

#

for no reasons

#

not even talking about saving traffic or listening to the music in the places without connection
