i haven't played titanfall but i get what you're saying
all fighting games are unknown
the fact that i haven't played it kinda proves the point actually
#video-games are that way
oh would you look at that
also I'm asking you guys to cut down on your use of reaction gifs please, it's getting spammy
Canada is a tad infamous for a handful of cruddy cartoons, but those are just a drop in a sea of amazing shows we had up here. Here's what I grew up watching, why it was awesome, and how it shaped me into who I am now.

we get it you don't like anything thta's popular
Is that curse words I hear in that clip?
yeah, it is. If a video includes words the bot would block, the video isn't appropriate for here either please
and if i recall correctly the bot blocks the f-word.
we shun fancy things like words that can be considered offensive

Amogus
idk why i assumed Swan has mod powers, but why doesn't he?
He is an authority figure of sgg.
no, but I can poke @tranquil bay 
<tatz> 👈 poke
yeah me too
the pokeball design is tacky
also gamefreak never explained why it has pokeballs on it. was the pokeball designed after it.
too many questions
Amogus
Watch out for scammers, guys. I reckon this guy came from here because it's the only big gaming server I'm present in
@slim bobcat when you get the chance, if one of you hasn't already 
yeah, just did a search for them and they aren't in the server
they've already been banned
well that also works lol
:3
hi tatz
@lament halo dont be afraid to dm a mod about this in the future 
"I see all that pass."
hi friends, sorry not feeling so hot tonight so im not sticking around
you better stop mandering
maney laundering?
hey doc
gerry mandering is a political cant tell if you dont know as a joke or not
also hi
I see all who pass.
Ok
in my friends' discord there's like two people who liked my pfp and my name
Who can I talk to?
no I was talking in general, but if you want to suggest the devs about something here's their contact page https://www.supergiantgames.com/contact/
Supergiant Games is an independent game developer in San Francisco, California. We created the games Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre.
Ok
Greg made a post regarding adding further translations to Hades a while back
#hades-localization message
Well, thank you I'll talk to him about that
The tldr of the post is, they'll consider adding further translations to hades but don't get your hopes up @faint panther
ok i talked to greg about that
on the topic of intel, stock should be good for 11th gen partially due to intell still being on the 14nm process for their desktop cpu's (though the global silicon shortage might have something to say about that)
AMD atm have gpu's, mobile and desktop cpu's as (both zen 2 and zen 3) well as console chips all on the 7nm process so it's kinda understandable especially with the aforementioned silicon shortage they'd be having a hard time keeping supply on shelves
being real a bit here, when will intel at least jump the 10nm ship?
the TDP is increasing every gen
thats the reason Apple's intel macbooks throttles once they reach their turbo boost frequency
there's only so much you can do on the same process and intel are sure going to the bleeding edge of what's possible on 14nm
literally at the end of the cliff for 14nm
it will be interesting to see what the thermals are like for 11th gen desktop
they're talking big upgrades and stuff, we just have to wait and see
I'm half expecting an inferno like 9th (9900k) gen
but 10th gen was a surprise in terms on thermals
was 10th gen meh with the performance upgrade?
it brought things back to the then status quo of intel best for gaming, and AMD best for productivity
I hate to say this, but I think intel's better for stability and purely gaming and single tasks
amd's stuff is wonky ngl (+ that recent usb failings with x570)
you're definitely not wrong there, there's some wacky things going on with some b550 and x570 mobo's and zen 3 causing usb 2 ports to stop working
my next pc build will be an intel one
that's fair, I went ryzen for my latest build and the cpu and/or mobo where DOA, so in the process of getting them both RMA'd
got the cpu back already in a brand new box so I assume that the cpu was DoA
now just waiting for the mobo
was it a Zen 3 chip?
nah zen 2, there's almost no zen 3 stock here in Aus and it would have been April at the earliest before I got one
oof, the shortage is global huh
yeah, absolutely global
Australia has some rtx3000 stock but it's at super inflated prices
ouch
Buy Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 VISION OC 8GB Video Card - GV-N3070VISION OC-8GD online with fast shipping and top-rated customer service. Mwave.com.au
msrp is 810 AUD for a reference point
our own retailers be scalping before the scalpers scalp 😂
we're going back to 2017 lads
we're already there, it gonna get worse 
mid2017-mid 2018 was so bad
I could build a pc for like 3/4 of my imac's price (which had 7500, 8gb, 1tb + a stupid 40gb ssd cuz bsapple, and Rx560)
oh and a nice and cool 4k screen
that was 1.1k usd or something, yesterday was the anniversary of my imac 
the one line of products to barely get touched by stock shortages has been monitors of all things
I am thankful I am so slow on upgrading stuff
the market shifted to 2k120hz, we're slowly making 2k the new standard
yeah 1440p is becoming the standard which is a good move :3
cuz I also won't have much trouble when I go to 2k down from 4k
how do you guys use your 1080p screens? it feels so small
we don't really have enough performance to make 4k really worth, for productivity applications it makes sense just not for gaming
We're getting there, the latest gen gpus can do 4k in almost all AAA titles
(except for cyblooper77
)
yeah we're getting there
oooh boy
time for me to not have any new pc for 3 years
guess I'll install some SSDs and eGPU my mac
You might be lucky on the 2nd hand market if the crypto bubble pops before then
maybe RTX 3060s cuz of the hash preventing or whatever
Maybe, I doubt the supply will be sufficient to meet the unprecedented demand for tech that occured over 2020 and into this year
But we'll see very soon
and the guy we with my friend know, told me
buy 20xx
what are you waiting for, Volus
and here am i with 1050 bought around 2017
"trust me düd, it's good"
at least you don't have a 1650 and a 9400f cuz of prebuilts
that wasn't for me, it was for my brother
jyj
well, on the other hand, what would be that used for
that same guy is into star citizen very much, and that game has so proxywording high-edge performance, that it demands a very powerful setup
to be playable
i'm pretty good with 1920 and 1280 for now, actually
well well, at least you don't have to disable everything for keanusimventyseven , that game is poorly optimized
i'll not even try to run it
nope, don't and never
my friend has pretty good setup, and she managed to squeeze solid 30 fps from it, and she's good
i have no false hopes here
If i would ever see 55-60fps i would just tear from my eyes
the visuals is amazing but the performance is so bad
at least it makes a good screensaver 
not wrong
somehow, thru all of that, low settings doesn't seem as bad as the low settings from other games
imagine cp77 loading every 15 minutes of idle work 
the little problem is that cp77 eliminates the need for loading screens... but replace it with ps1-esque graphics everytime you go so fast
idk what's worse
wait for ten thousand years of loading or face the ancient abominations
note that the ps1-esque graphics is because it's not loading , cuz we all have hdds
it's more visible on npcs and buildings if you zoom in on them
still better than missing locations in SC however
and bc there is still no server meshing, you can fall through the void and die, and only you will see that
i thought thsts like evry draw distance ever
the game just doesn't catch up to you when you do certain stuff like bunny hop bugs, or never catches up cuz it expects that you have an ssd
also, sometimes you need to press escape and wait for the UI to LOAD
@native ore and even in GDP PPP per capita
its so misleading since it measures the size of the cosnumer market rather than what you would expect it to do, which is say how rich every person is on average
I think people overuse those sorts of statistics but I think I do that mistake alot too so like
i do want to play mgs
metal gear solid
im waiting for the remakes so i can replay it
wat happened with Proxy
#proxystayalive
yeah but mgs v has this "dark souls 2 problem" where it's amazing on it's own ,just don't compare the other mgs games vs it (in terms of story ofc)
still plz edit that, or else mods can bonk you
fugg
arite
Bonk()
also the best game is actually hdoom
mods asleep, talk gaming in general
with light theme the pic looks creepy
wait , what?
with dark theme it looks even creepier
well, like the original, so it's legit
i was sure at first it's Hiding the pain Harold smh
light mode looks so weird now that I've went to the dark side
well, i prefer my monitor to be the primary source of light
otherwise it is not cozy enough
weird af
to the ones that are asking "why is there a a subaru and emilia server icon?" I swear that's my friends' school server where we dump all stuff related to school and homeworks in there
but noone asking
i love to create fake situations
even weirder.. like in the open field at night
or staring at the wall
instead of a window
not judging though
my room is not very well lit so I prefer the dark greys and OLED blacks in my screens
you do you , ain't judging either
i guess, the lighting of the room is the main reason for theme preference for many people
i prefer warmer lights
for me good lighting is crucial for movement, but i know many people who prefer not to use any light at all
they just stay in the darkness at nighttime
there's this another lightbulb in the room that makes me half blind if I stare at it for too long
happens
schoolhomeworksandprojects
perhaps
it was created cuz i was a mod in an another server and we did this gig on someone and he was mad about it and made another server
a day later he rejoined
i didn't care at all
I'm just reading and solving a collection of questions that I hope I will get in my exam day
okie have fun
likewise

i knew someone's gonna do that

i would like to learn how to edit videos but hallelujah money
also, Vegas movie studio is just what the average human needs for editing videos
none of that 500$ pro proxyword
it's just really amogus reference when they ask you for your credit card number when you just need it for a week.
i mean 30 bucks ain't bad and i think it's permanent
yep, and again, has everything someone needs
when I say someone i say like.. me and you, doing those proxywordposts

someone really loved my new profile a lot
that's from the friends server 
Lol
oh and a 3rd person yoinked my pfp too
Your army is growing
Thou may become too powerful, we should take him out before it's too late.
Grow your army and take over the world
that's the only real path
too many silverfoots ruins the balance of the world, i assume?
Well, your also a Honk() so i think you're keeping it balanced as the power of the Honk() is much larger than Johnduck Silverfoot, though in large number the Johnduck Silverfoots may take over the power of Honk().
nope, not on my watch
You're doing your job well then.
y'all i really just can't seem to get a perfect catch :/
neither can I
i feel like my reaction speeds are just too grandma :(
The Honkerist.
wow congrats to hades in the gayming awards!
gayming
<--gaymer
gerryming
i remember a copypasta back on 4chan about "don't call me a gamer because it has gay in it so call me a straightmer" this was back when people called thing sgay just cause.
Obama gaming?

Schpoon is back?
are they an ancient legend before i got here?
I think I'm in running for most hours of Hades played.
legends say that Schpoonman comes in so that Schpoonman refresh the boons that makes this server unique
idk i do alotta snooping.
I don't have an exact count.
THEN LOOK
I don't have an exact count.
I played a lot with my computer completely disconnected from the internet so the EGS didn't record hours played.
And I rolled back my save file around the time of launch and lost ~200 runs.
so you have no proof that you have played hades the longest
Nothing hard.
If someone really wanted to make a thing about it I wouldn't fuss.
Oooh impressive
peach has 400
theres still people with way more than us
barely having 27hrs
people like playing video games
i have like 62
i just want to max out achievements then i'll stop my hades grind
Tailesque and some others have 500+ I think. I know Haelian has like 1000+ (he's a streamer so it makes sense).
get that last achievement!
That he is! And I don't know anyone who has played Hades longer than he has 
peachie did you eat today
when did i get here
I JUST ATE LUNCH
good 
like late january?
Yo, I made aglio e olio last night!
oh im having spaghet tomorrow
just so you know
I have more hours in
than in pyre
But the sauce broke super hard. I need to try again and get it to stick together.
Try, try again starts playing
Illuminate me: what are tritones? 
you have a piano or keyboard? much easier to explain with one of them on hand.
now that we're talking about music equipment, how is your journey with the guitar now?
not good
can't find a teacher
and youtube tutorials aren't as useful as you think
fingering
that sounds weird out of context
chords and finger placement to play notes
I understand. I can assume that you haven't got the hang of the placement of the notes, correct?
hmmm, I'd love to see progress about your guitar adventure
I also happen to have a friend that is a guitar player
he's the metal and alt rock type (maybe hardcore punk rock, trust me i'll pull him to that)
i was thinking more acoustic guitar and ukulele
interesting for sure
my ukulele is a toy uku and my guitar is broken sooooo
I don't have a piano near me 
I'll try my best to explain
Acoustic guitar, baby! I love me some folk music 
a tritone is essentially an interval that is 3 full tones away from the root note, usually c4, or middle c
when music was made for church it was seen as the devils note as it is very dissonant compared to surrounding notes that are a full tone away or a semitone away.
me too!
on the second bar of the celetsa or glockenspiel (i can't tell which it is) it uses tritones as a response to the much happier major duotones (it has a different name but i forgot it but it's just 2 full tones away from the root)
Music: Try, Try Again
Composer: Yoko Shimomura
Playlist: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLz5gUls4mkX-SXZqAqzGJPjLNn_fLKYJG
Platform: Nintendo 3DS
Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Music
11 seconds to 14 seconds is what i'm referring to
someone knows about M&L 
it also uses call and response to add a sense of dynamics, it maybe because the major duotones are telling you to try and the minor tritones are telling you to quit.
now i'm analyzing instead of explaining what a tritone is but you get the gist.
OMG All this music theory!
sensory overload?
Listening to the 11s mark
sorry.
I loooooooooooove this song~
M&L battle and boss themes are cool (except partners in time, idk that one was weird for me)
especially M&L Bowser's inside story
i could never get into m&l, gameplay is too turnbased rpg
that's why I loved it
o
and the same reason
was my entry point to sgg
I should play persona ik
EGS version is in my friends account for free ,he only played it for 5 hours
the rest is mine
i'm weird
IT'S 3AM AND THERE'S ANOTHER JOHNDUCK IN MY SERVER
gotta love egs free games
it is nice
no u 
absolute drift is free right now
and it won't be tomorrow
so if you're waiting for it ummmmmm
i don't even play games on egs and yet i keep it, but hey free games
looks at channel
uh oh
Gerry what channel are we on?
Then why are you discussing vidya with others?
idk what you are talking about
scroll up just a tad
no
ok
tell yourself
I can't
Thou art shalleth do thou's work assigned to be done at home.
can i just say that this discord server is chill?
some other ones I am in are ... problematic.
well this has been said a thousand times already
Do your homework
Thanks. I will am.
I got Hyper Light Drifter, in contention with Hades and Hollow Knight as my #1, as a free EGS game.
oh yea hi there people i’m new here
Got hades like a month ago and i’ve fallen in love with this game so i thought it’d just be nice to lurk around look in supergiant’s server every once in a while


Random fact of the day:
The only remaining countries in the world which don't use the metric system are the United States, Liberia, and Myanmar (Burma).
C'mon, the Americans here probably already feel dumb enough there's enough of us that kept Corona going through 2021, don't gotta rub that in our faces too.
No, but not wearing masks was.
i just wish they reported flu like they do corona
so we can be in perpetual pandemic
might slow down productivity but i like the way school is like now.
also not all our fault.
But the flu isn't anywhere nearly as dangerous as Coronavirus.
just 69 percent our fault
nice
It's much more present, sure, but it's not a pandemic-tier virus.
I'm just saying that if they reported the flu like they do the flu they would be scared pantsless because of the numbers. cdc also just approved a johnson vaccine. so covid maybe coming to an end in the next 6 months. if they started reporting the flu like covid they will start the next pandemic. or maybe even the common cold. ooh that'll start a BIG pandemic.
plus the uneducated would treat like the world is ending
Flu numbers are already very easily findable for literally anyone with an internet connection.
Which is a lot of people who I will charitably call uninformed.
include me?
Not yet.
pffft
I haven't spoken to you much, I don't wanna make a quick assumption.
But while quantity matters, quality tends to be a stronger multiplier, which is why Coronavirus' greater deadliness warrants more news attention.
i know covid i dangerous but happy news
some 105 year old beat covid
lemme find the article
That's wonderful, and a pretty extreme outlier.
i think if you have a good immune system and you don't smoke, your chances of survival are pretty high
||if you don't live in america||
There's more complications than that.
You ever feel like you've just witnessed the birth of a legend?
Betty White and Lucia DeClerck, a duel during the end of the world.
It's so damn anime.
wanna see that as a 4 minute animation on my desk BY WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK.
i thought america's healthcare jokes were well, a joke, but then I dislocated my ribcage and stayed 4 nights at a mental asylum and thought, "shoot, my country is trash."
"But baby this the land of the free, where you can get a sack of glocks for the cheap!"
woah, did i get too real or are all the regulars asleep?
I tabbed out to watch a YouTube video.
ok, i'm gonna go eat
Good idea, it was a foodie video.
egg is the best human invention
It is a chicken invention 🥚 🐔
@faint panther Do you watch "The Victorian Way" cooking videos?
They are very entertaining 😄
I do not.
Only cooking channels I'm subbed to on YouTube are Babish, Joshua Weissman, and YSAC.
📖Order your copy of Mrs Crocombe’s cookery book here: http://bit.ly/2RPyrvQ 📖
Mrs Crocombe, the Victorian cook, has decided to bake Victoria Sandwiches for Lord and Lady Braybrooke in the kitchens of Audley End.
Follow her authentic Victorian recipe and try making this classic cake at home:
INGREDIENTS
675g Sugar
6 Eggs
450g Flour
2 tsp Oran...
I have never followed any of her recipes but oh my gosh I love the way she narrates ❤️
👋
I’m going to attempt “Hades” run I don’t even know what while the offspring are sleeping.
let me guess
does "he" advertise a discord for people to join to play games and chill
the campfire server?
well it says he's never posted a message to sgg
was it to spartans gaming?
did he dm you?
sounds like dare program: just say no
that's the reference
it IS spartan gaming
alright
so it's a bot
Yes hi hello
If you can send me a screenshot of the DM I will handle it, @sullen path
look up residentsleeper
i thought it was something way different.
i really need to get my mind outta the gutter.
... it wasn’t just you 👉👈
heh
honestly..... same 
sgg is actually great for that with rule 2
i honestly think rule 2 is one the best way to kick your cursing addiction.
but my dirty-minded-ness is just me. once you see it, you can't unsee it.
I mean... they knew what they were doing when they designed those characters... the game is well marketed.
working customer service helps too (i know youre still a minor gerry lol but just saying). in my personal spaces i say lots of stuff that isnt allowed here. but i know when to turn that off, i dont have a problem with it
ummm I'm really vulgar and dirty jokes is a big part of my personality
Having a job teaches you code switching REALLY fast.
how many times I almost cursed here 
ohhhh
shouldn't residentsleeper be hypnos instead
i feel like knowing when you're being kinda an ass or not is essential to being a good person.
residentsleepgod
new thing im gonna draw 👀
funny thing I just started drawing because a lot of my past projects kind of required being good at it
maybe i should draw that "teenager who just woke up" SNL screenshot but with hypnos lmao
as opposed to noticing my pfp
fdjsjghkgdsjk
incoherent mumbling in a delirium
so dementia
sleepy bastard disease
bastard is a good word
wot in tarnation
there was a jewish chick in my grade who everyday would write "bastard" in hebrew on my arm
playing ni no kuni
zounds
that 10 year old Oliver curse a lot.... jeepers
i intend to get a tattoo that says bastard in hebrew in memoriam of Ryley.
we dated for 20 minutes
🥰
Code switch is easy. Just imagine that you are talking to your gf's dad who is holding a shotgun menacingly and you will stop using bad words real quick.
But yeah having a job helps
I want a job. I want money. I need something to do.
^
That was... short lived.
i guess that still counts
As a closeted to family gay, Im used to code switching
Random question: do you guys pick up accent after consuming a certain media?
Example: you watch a show filled with southern accent characters and you suddenly start talking in that accent
It's kind of annoying to me, cause sometimes I have to ask customer's order with irish accent today
And southern tomorrow 
Not me but its pretty common
flashback to all the kids that suddenly spoke in british accent just because of Peppa Pig
Somewhat possible. I don't exactly consume the same stuff since I sort of got the hang of it, but guess it is true somewhat. Was taught British English alot, but over the years got more American English so I sticked more to its rules.
Im just really bad at speaking I cant even imitate any accents
I mean, I once binged a show called Preacher, the setting was southern america and I spoke southern accent for 2 weeks 
I don't know if I can but I feel I can. I know I can imitate manners and accent of announcement person in airport
That's like an ability of sorts I suppose!
once a song Down Under was stuck in my head, and for that period i spoke with australian accent in my head
not for long, couple of days
ugandan knuckleses also made some influence back in the day
I picked up a new yorker accent after a year of class in there(cawfee instead of coffee) but didn’t stick for far long, but The Office made my almost American accent sound good
Mind you before all that i was talking in the heavy english accent that you expect from arabs (it’s amusing for me to hear my friends talk in heavy english)
Oh and tie it up with the “mate” and “bruv”
Back in my highschool days, I had a teacher with an eastern Indonesian accent. He told my class to stay quiet and do our assignment while he was called to principal's office. I subconciously replied with his accent.
He took it rather nice so
Danger averted
phew
bastard
we are getting splatoon 3
you know what that means
and also hopefully splatfests
i miss those
the splatfests, i mean
finally I have the appropriate console and a chance to play splatoon at its peak
finally lol I didn't bought both splatoon because nintendo games rarely goes on sale and I just got my switch in 2019
also internet kinda sucks here which might means online splatoon play is impossible
(y'all should probably be having this in #video-games )
i honestly want my own house for this reason, people can be really rude
Have you already tried talking to them about it?
Hey friends, please remember to keep in mind our community guidelines! You can see them in #readme-first 
What happened here o.o
this is still here, for one thing :/
It's the Internet, you can curse.
I'll start. I hope my League teammates develop a life long depression.
if you play league you already have life long depression
i prescribe you with "no more riot."
there was and is no cure.
not if you didn't play it
💎 🙌 ?
me no understand
🙃 🔫
rip
Round 2?
let's stop mentioning that particular acronym, I will be nuking it any time I see it.
rule 2, keep discussion clean
saw this was quoted and it is still my favorite amendment since it means we can say milf and not get in trouble
I actually had an early Hades hotness tier list nuked 'cause of the Dad equivalent (Nyx and Persephone's final portraits were not present yet).
dilf got nuked?
Yup.
Nah, this isn't a democracy.
im joking lol
i've got to remember that joking about something dumb that isnt obviously a negative like calling this oppression is hard to tell it in writing form
I don't personally have a problem with it if the comment isn't totally outrageous, since context matters with some of these acronyms but if there's discomfort around their usage we will certainly remove them
i mean yeah of course, yall are trying to run a server and i aint going to blame you for that
scrambles to find situations where i can use milf
Man, I love frogs.
i mean to be fair, i do think that milf can be it's own word that doesnt even mean what it is supposed to mean in the end. Like it's just a descriptor for attractive women
like i said, it doesnt have to hold it's og meaning
oh yeah
also, dunno if you saw it, but I said ramath hakovesh @sturdy quartz
Yeah I never heard of that place
it's a kibbutz
Yeah
I have no idea where it is 
It's in the Sharon
Depends what you count as not too far
a few hours?
by car
I miss it.. it's been a few years since I last visited
I've only been there 5 times 🥺
Yeah a few hours in Israel is considered a lot
Why don't I have permission to send images?
Well I'm on my phone so how am I gonna use imgur?
imgur works on your phone
you can also DM to me and I'll reshare with a link, if you want
since I'm on
looked on maps & it's not too far from Tel Aviv
Yeah if you would check your DMs
what
the name sounds familiar, though I've only been to israel a couple times so I might be imagining that
It's like a walk from gherec
There
The name literally translates to "conqueror's hill" which is pretty cool
Yeah I can imagine how you would mix up names
looking at it on maps, I don't think I was in that area
Whatd I miss
the wonders of google maps & my incredible memory when it comes to the name of a kibbutz
very cool
oh?
hi volus
speaking of acronyms.. there were multiple cases when foreign people got confused about the name of local gaming media resource for press and devs.. Daily TeleFrag.. good thing that most of them had enough sense to understand
hiya Gerry
"I see all who graze the light."
does anyone want to play a game?
hop onto #video-games so we don't get yelled at
birb
we did that for almost an hour?!
oh goodness
anyway goodnight
gn then
good luck with whatever you got going on.

Everyday i wipe my butt knowing that one day i will too get wiped off the face of the earth
but today is not that day
Unfortunately
someday we will vanish, and noone will remember us or what we did
no trace in the world
and then sun will devour the planet
Sir this is a Wendy's
and then all the stars will eventually burn out and universe will die
you wanted a french fry and a sprite?
i can use some milkshake atm
alas, there is no Wendy's in our country
that'll be 9.99
geesh
Card or cash?
(payment confirmed noises) Have a great day sir
tamks
enjoy your milkshake
to think of it, my city had its first McDonalds in around 2015
far beyond the borders
and people gathered to see its opening
like in the capital in early 90s
"thanks, you too"
and other awkward phrases to rethink at 2 am
Always happens , force of habit
This is actually what i've been saying for a while now
Nothing has happened
Nothing is happening
And nothing will happen
weight of the world, all falls away in time
cool game
its a surefire way to get diabetes lmao
every day
we stray further from gods
This is one of the things that looks nice but is so messy to eat. Just give me a half sized that in a bigger glass for minimum mess and I'm blessed (with diabetes).
amogus
Sooo.... who am I gonna bother today here in this channel?
Checks who's online
Man, now I'd feel bad if I poked anyone at this hour 
👆
you've been poked
if you want to bother someone i can be bothered.
Swaaaaaan!
That is a very cute cat gif 
Thank you 
all cat gifs are good cat gifs
kind of random but i am coming to Hades Fandom after being in TF2 Fandom and it's so crazy and refreshing that the dev team is actually active... supergiant is so good 🥺
But TF2’s fanbase is very active.
Sure there hasn’t gotten a major update in awhile, but neither has Chess.
Also I can’t conga while wearing hats in Hades
ah yes, Ron Perlman cat
🎵 "What'd I miss (What, What, What, What'd I miss) My home sweet home Supergiant, I wanna give you kiss" 🎵
the fanbase is yeah, but valve has been really disappointing lately with things like the bot issue/lack of heavy update/not finishing the comics on top of just having 0 transparency about any of it
I’m not blaming them for the comics since the artist is someone else, and they’re no stranger to delaying updates. I will give you the bot problem though.
i mean the artist does work at valve 👀 theyre just doing dota stuff atm 😔
So... there's this 1 person who's a Mary Sue with ALL her characters and I hate to RP with them but she happens to be a friend of a friend and I'm doing my best to tolerate it but maaaaaan 
That's a RP sin and I wanna open that bottle of rum to make it pass because boy...
Can you like respectfully say no?
I caaaaaan't. I am making sacrifices for a friend 
sometimes it's just best to excuse yourself, of course i don't know what it feels like to care about others feelings, but if you just straight up don't like them i think you should just calmly leave...???? or say it to their face but if your friendship with others is on the line, yeah no don't do that.
@forest basalt Thank you for that saxy Giraffe ❤️
It always works. ;) 
I'd normally leave, yeah. But 🌈 friendship 🌈
mmmmm 🙃 that really sucks
guess i should just say
"Suck it up, Buttercup!"
i'm not helping
I made sweet tea.
I drank too much sweet tea.
I want more sweet tea.
What gives?
can i have some sweet tea?
🍵
What a beautiful non-haiku 
truly a relatable and existential problem.
speaking of tea
I've made Honey Green apple Lavender tea
it's just I put too much lavender
so it was veeeeery floral
good thing about it, the green apple was enough to give a texture
the honey added some sweetness to balance the acidity
but the lavender punched me in the gut 
I'm glad were bringing back pings. A whole 9/27/19 to now of no pings but now people get to see the beauty of things
i also like them because i got pinned once ;)
We pin all kinds of stuff but noone notices
i notice. 
no one has impressed me enough for a pin yet 😌
nice try
i thought you would like it quite a bit
This got pinned so i thought the bar was pretty low. :3 ||no offense doggo||
you need a matching profile pic.
🙃 🔫
its a pin alright
peach gave me the "honorary pin" as well
my journey is in vain.
Not even those with power see worth in my troubles.
i'm gonna cry myself to sleep and think about my choices.
Anyone watching Meatcanyon?
On topic but also off topic. Did anyone else know that Alexander the great and his general Hephaestion were equated to real world examples of Achilles and Patroclus in their time?
Who.... was going to tell me that Alexander the Great was rumored to have died of grief after Hephaestion's death.... why am I just learning about this
2Derp
Wish me luck y'all, got an exam in about an hour and i'm feeling bit nervous
GL Honk
feeling nervous means that you've got expectations to do good
but you can't have those expectations without actually being able to do good
so just do your best
you can do this
good luck 
No update. Honk is ded. F.
You sure?
A ghost
I’m just proxywording happy
Who is happy?
It's over huh. Good job.
2 weeks of stress just gone
I cant describe how happy i am, like even in the middle of the exam im just smiling
I have anticipatory anxiety so I feel that.
Anticipatiory anxiety.., enlighten me
Just Google it
Then ibgot ya
It's just that i get anxious in anticipation of something that doesn't warrant that extreme of a response.
Fox, that whats just happened to me in the past couple of weeks
For example, I have a meeting at 3PM. That means I can't really relax until after it.
Of course it's natural to be nervous before big events. That's just being human. But the excessiveness is the problematic thing.
excessiveness was the thing that ate at my whole 2 weeks
From stress to quitting, to literally just fing leaving everything behind for it
Whats something thats beyond happy? Euphoria?
Serenity? Being happy, to me, means you have something to be content about.
Being serene is being content about nothing?
Maybe more of a sidegrade, not an upgrade but eh.
Serenity, im just in the mood of saying “No” to whatever’s happeneing
Satisfied? But I think that just conveys just enough
i'm looking but I can't find any good synonyms for happy that convey more
^
the relief after finishing a test is so final
you could just die after doing that and you would die happy
Really random question, but is anyone familiar with Photoshop? I need some help with the automate function.
@forest basalt I would like for you to know that there isn't another Johnduck SIlverfoot in my server, they switched their pfp to Beanos
and probably there isn't a Johnduck any more...
me too
^
yes, I'll change it to....
that
but there is no reference to poultry...
the leg...
i have legs, so i thought it was a reference to me
I understand, but I think it isn't the best time to ruin the Audit logs
mmmm
but hey, I'm the same Honk you know and like
:D
nothing changed, except it now goes in line with the other servers that I have
speaking of my man johnny
look at him here just being happy

body language and animation in this game is something
quick
this is related to the current discussion in #video-games but off-topic: i've been curious about brand adoration ever since hypebeast stores properly came to my state. it's something I never want to relate to (fully, at least) but am curious of
fashion branding particularly catches my eye because I love trends but so much of it reads as tacky to me. like, getting logos of a brand all over oneself
are you asking a question or just trying to understand why?
just trying to understand the thought processes behind it yeah. it reminds me of a kid plastering themselves with stickers and running wild w it
ironically some harajuku styles incorporate lots of stickers into their looks
some brands have a sense of status behind them. some people i doubt they adore the brand it's just the status symbol attached to the brand.
of course there are always objections
🤔 yeah okay that makes sense! thanks
Also, it helps people claim an identity they choose as opposed to one that’s assigned.
poof
mmhm, for They/Them it's definitely both a gendered and non-gendered term. Many Enby people use They/Them, She/Them, He/Them etc. as pronouns but there's also those who don't like They/Them at all so Neopronouns are also a thing (Xe/Xim, Fae/ Faer etc.)
Gender terms fun (YMMV):
Agender - not identifying strongly as any gender
Non-binary - A gender identity which is not within the binary (feminine or masculine).
Genderqueer - A gender identity which is outside feminine or masculine, or a feminine/masculine identity outside what is considered typical (I am here 😁)
niceu 
As far as pronouns go, I use the same advice for myself I tell my Big Kid, if you’re not sure, use “they/them” and ask nicely.
and one thing that hasn't been brought up but alas, sex is also a spectrum not the "2 sexes" thing you've likely been taught through school
I remember vaguely seeing a graphic in regards to it but I don't remember where
YES! “Sex” is biological and exists on a slider in humans. Gender is social, variable, and has no hard scientific definition.
anyways for example you can have a cis male with xx chromosomes
And there’s XO, XXY, all sorts of variations.
swans can be gay
your sex chromosomes don't do much special to determine your sex :3
Also, brains become gendered at a different point in development than your bits, so you can literally have a feminine brain in a male body or vice versa.
yep 
so as I said in #video-games this stuff gets incredibly complex once you dive into the details
🎶Humans are weird, that’s why we love them. Don’t be Theseus and we’ll all be friends!🎶
though I like to think Theseus is a decent person outside of the fight
What if we want to be Theseus /j
that's fair
There’s probably someone better from one of the other games, but I’ve been marathoning “Hades”.
PFLAG has a good glossary of terms on their site.
And don’t feel weird asking either. This is the first time in modern history that people have been able to openly discuss 🏳️🌈 stuff, so we’re having to define a LOT of stuff as we go.
I didn’t know the term for myself until I was almost 30. I knew I was different, but I didn’t have a label to put on it for a ridiculous chunk of my existence.
https://cassielabelle.medium.com/help-somebody-i-love-is-transgender-part-1-what-does-that-even-mean-905d98684884 - here's a good site that can help also :3
But is there a reason to be trans or to mangle your body to appear as the other gender/sex? ||(whatever we're talking about)||
the reason can be wide and varied
We all try to make our bodies to match the ideal we have in our minds. Some people do that with clothing, exercise, tattoos, hair, surgery, all kinds of stuff. Humans have been doing that for as long as there have been humans. Some folks are just lucky enough to be born with a body that’s closer to their ideal than others.
I asked somebody why they decided to be trans and they said that it was because women we're oppressed, so why would you want to be apart of the trans community when they are prolly the most oppressed community of people in the world especially when in america our most recent presidents (Uncle Joe and Mama Donald) are 70 year olds with dementia.
Well, you don’t get to decide what communities you belong to.
and is trans a physical thing, emotional, mental, or even spiritual if you're into astrology or chakras?
That depends on the person.
unfortunately for those that do need surgery to get close to their mental image of themselves there's several roadblocks to overcome to even get close to receiving the surgery
especially in the US so I hear
For me at least, I experience panic attacks when things get too feminine. Clothing and hair are particular triggers for me personally. I changed my carrier so I would not have to dress in gendered clothing for work.
Being pregnant was very difficult.

wdym?
there's not much in terms of non feminine clothing for pregnant people
if any at all
I can't speak for everyone, but mainly emotional I've found
Being pregnant is one of the most gendered experiences a person can have. You are constantly being reminded of an identity you don’t align with. Also, doctors are not trained to deal with 🏳️🌈 issues, especially in OBGYN (but they should be!)
In the animal kingdom outside of people with a conscience. females are impregnated meaning yes it is a feminine thing therefore only feminine clothing.
ofc that's prolly offensive
seahorses would like to have a word. The males are the ones that carry the babies
Here’s the other thing, I can hide my queerness. I usually do out of safety and convince. (IRL I am very private about certain things.) It does take a toll on my mental health though.
shoot!
To be honest, just being queer is a bit of a mental health endurance
And for some people, the toll of the mismatch between presentation and inner self is too great to be sustained. It’s worth the risk to be out.
i do know that amphibians and some sea animals change gender according to the needs and wants (if you catch my drift) of the group, herd, gaggle, or murder they're in.
I would love that.
"or murder"
I can't wait for someone to ask for clarification here
but does that mean humans can just stop sexual maturity and go the other way.
If I could just swap, that would be amazing!
That's a group of crows.
lmao
In a parallel universe, this is read as "murderer of crows"
back to this??
Sure
The entire idea of gender is a bit odd, and there's absolutely some alternate universe where gender never existed to begin with
gender is a way to categorize who you should or shouldn't have sex with it. (is that tos?)
Great question
Our gender ideas are old and super out of date.
yeah our gender ideas, and even sex ideas are super out of date
The binary is also re-enforced by people who want to keep order because they benefit from it. (And no, I do not mean all of any particular group.)
And... religion.
Anyways, the oddness of gender isn't in its existence, but rather the fact that literally anything is tied to it
If we didn't have someone that was 70 years old and had dementia in the oval office we could have a bill or law passed with something about updating gender ideas.
that's prolly something for the united nations though
Oh, that's going to annoy someone who didn't read this entire thread, isn't it?
Humans like categories. You see it a ton in young kids. My Toddler had to check every color of chalk because he had to sort them as “food/not food”.
it'll likely be at least a generation before we see the general consensus around gender changing
so we won't be able to see it
2077
my bets in
y'all owe me 5 bucks if it happens then
Some of us are likely going to be alive during 2077 :p
Well, not likely, but
I'm jinxing myself aren't I
by then we'll also have dementia, we won't care.
Fair enough
I’m hopeful for this gen coming up. There are enough of us Millenials and Xers doing the work of undoing the assorted phobias. The more kids raised without the horror training, the better we will all be.
(This is an entirely separate discussion, but the idea of tying hopes to a generation is probably just as borked)
Well, I’m throwing my two to the cause. And that’s the corner I can effect. I’ve got a Big Kid who understands that “they” is a singular pronoun and that he can marry a mommy or a daddy. That has to be enough for now.
Because if you try to solve all the problems yourself you’re on the express train to Saddest Saddo land.
“they” is a singular pronoun
Oh, this is another thing - I feel like a new word should be invented for gender neutrality, since "they" is grammatically plural and messes up subject-verb agreement
