[blissful charm]

one of my profs does this thing that on break she'll play music but not like. from zoom. instead of screensharing to youtube she plays it in a separate window and has us listen to the song coming out of her computer speakers

[tender cobalt]

Has anyone told her that?

[blissful charm]

i don't think so but it's very intentional

[tranquil bay]

[blissful charm]

o/

[faint panther]

Blood and darkness.

[bronze lintel]

reminds me back in high school, one monitoring teacher brought her speaker and played musics while we were having an exam

after the exam I told her "I appreciate the effort"

"but it didn't help"

[limber walrus]

pfft

music can help some people, but it's super situational and usually a personalized thing

[bronze lintel]

it prob helped others

didn't help me

cause I didn't like the songs

[tranquil bay]

it wouldn't help me bc i genuinely cannot think and have music going at the same time lmao it scrambles me. any time i want to talk or write/type i have to turn off music if i have any going or it makes it really difficult for me to collect my thoughts

[dry stratus]

usually I listen to those cafe or rain simulators

[sudden torrent]

When I draw or write down something I have a song on loop or listen to a podcast or fav videos.

I can't help to listen to many songs in my process

[bronze lintel]

I can listen to songs when I write and do chores

can't when I read

[eager heart]

@faint panther might be a scammer careful guys

[upbeat rain]

what did they do

if they actually tried to scam you then you should ping a mod

[eager heart]

i dont know the person, got friend requested

asked iif they were a scammer, got blocked

it's like the 10'th someone tries to scam me on discord so i didnt bother waitingg

[tranquil bay]

that person isn't in this server (according to me looking at their profile just a moment ago)

[sharp grail]

yeah, i just banned them

[tranquil bay]

o

well too fast for me as always lmao

[bronze lintel]

fastest ban in the west

[blissful charm]

[prime hare]

[faint panther]

Youtube down for anyone else?

[upbeat scroll]

yep

[faint panther]

Oh ok

[dusty rover]

nope, works on browser, anyway

though, seeing as there are people here from all over the world, this server may not be the best place to ask(?)

[faint panther]

I just googled it it seems people from all over the world were having the problem

[upbeat scroll]

seems off an on for me

[dusty rover]

i stand corrected then, that’s a bigger problem than i thought

haven’t experienced it myself

[faint panther]

Yeah its trending on twitter rn

[limber walrus]

It's back up for me

Though there are a ton of hits on is it down

[high coyote]

guess what
I can finally cross one of the bullet points off my bucket list

I got blocked by someone on Twitter

finally
my life goals are complete

I can die happy

[limber walrus]

Dare I ask what you did/said?

[high coyote]

eh, nothing too major

I think I just pushed the wrong buttons

I made an alt just to tell them "thank you for helping me achieve the Twitter milestone of my dreams (first block), have a very lovely day, and god bless 🙏"

I am totally gonna get reported

but it is super worth it

HAHA I GOT BLOCKED TWICE

oh no wait I didn't

aw man

I really wanted the other milestone

2 blocks

[charred grove]

i know this might be a stupid question but is the supergiant's the creator of Hades 🙂 i have some question regarding translation to the game

[limber walrus]

Yes, you'll want to ask in #hades-localization

[bronze lintel]

Yes

[pine tinsel]

that is a great gif

[mild flame]

Well it's better than mondays

[tranquil bay]

i like how thats on your bucket list and meanwhile i just hand out blocks like candy bc theres no way to use the site and retain my sanity without blocking out anyone who is even a minor annoyance to me lol https://gyazo.com/31854955545d7446f09929797391efba

[upbeat rain]

lmao

[rancid tartan]

https://skribbl.io/?T4kYCAGMcTt3

[high coyote]

I am just REALLY surprised it took me this long to get blocked by someone

also

update

I got blocked by the same person on my alt

I can cross that one off my bucket list B)

[upbeat rain]

Nice lmao

[high coyote]

yeah it's great

[proud flicker]

I am not blocked my anyone.

[high coyote]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

you should go make people more mad, it's great to get blocked

[violet sky]

Lol

[high coyote]

also I was scrolling through my Twitter to relive old memories and I realized I got blocked by 2 people

so I'm having a good day

[violet sky]

The hate only fuels you, empowers you!

[dusty rover]

big brain move block twitter from your life

[violet sky]

Big brain move block yourself

Infinite recurvise hate loop

[dusty rover]

big brain move block your brain

does that make sense? no. doesn't matter. you blocked your brain. live in bliss

[proud flicker]

but if you think you exist

then if you don't think, you don't exist

it's a logical fallacy but who cares

[high coyote]

https://imgur.com/PRfRVkw

thank you for the big think

[dusty rover]

oh wow it really is big brain time

[upbeat scroll]

you also gotta block @fbi just in case

that way they cant read your tweets

[proud flicker]

no i like my fbi agent

[mild pelican]

We were so close to Twitter being blocked in the whole country, but alas, communication overseers got some sense and lifted the restrictions. So for now I can't cross off the point about living with dystopian internet unfortunately

But it's never too late I guess

Until it is

[indigo walrus]

Haha, that's a good one 😄

[royal surge]

obviously shinji mikami just doesn't want to talk to you :P

[bronze lintel]

I just had my coffee

It's nice

dang I love my job

[proud flicker]

Curious, if you play games mostly on PC, what kind of specs do you have?

[high coyote]

I got suspended off Twitter
another milestone

[upbeat rain]

nice

but why

[high coyote]

okay so to preface it's kind of a fact that a vocal minority of Paper Mario fans are really really not good people

so I saw that AntDude made a Tweet about how he wanted to play Paper Mario: The Origami King again

I seized the opportuinity

https://imgur.com/qifjPoN

now, looking back

I am well aware that I probably should not have saitd the words I, will, murder, and you in the same sentence

[upbeat rain]

yeah

you have to be nice on twitter

[high coyote]

but it is still kind of lame

[upbeat rain]

because twitter is all about being nice

[high coyote]

:(

oh well, now I can go touch grass

that'll be nice

[upbeat rain]

yes

[high coyote]

hopefully my account will be unsuspended in about...
2-3 days?

[upbeat rain]

maybe

but after that you should get suspended again

[high coyote]

maybe I will

look out for that one in the future it'll totally NOT happen wink wink nudge nudge

[upbeat rain]

or you can do it the easy way and deactivate your account

[high coyote]

aw but that's LAME

boo, respectful way to go out boo

[upbeat rain]

its the good ending

[high coyote]

good ending?
boooooooooooooooooo

[upbeat rain]

well lets just hope that your account doesnt get unsuspended

[high coyote]

yes

Twitter is not very good

I've gotten blocked like, 3 times for disagreeing with opinions

[upbeat rain]

classic

[high coyote]

and one of the times the guy was just being a prick
so
great platform, great community

[upbeat rain]

yeah its great

[high coyote]

incredible

[austere scarab]

i never talk on twitter, i just observe the chaos from above from time to time when im bored

[upbeat rain]

good idea

[high coyote]

the smarts on this big brain

[proud flicker]

I'll give you one better, don't join Twitter.

[upbeat rain]

even better idea

[proud flicker]

that said I do have a twitter account that I follows steam sales on xD

[upbeat scroll]

"Don't make death threats" is actually a totally reasonable rule that i think its fine for twitter to have

I don't agree with a lot of Twitter decisions but that one... seems fine actually

[high coyote]

thank you

and, yes, I agree
death threats unironically are never okay

I'm just kinda mad the Twitter bot doesn't really take context into account but we're not to a point where it feasibly can

[blissful charm]

boy in a box

[high coyote]

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, I love birds

cute bird

[upbeat rain]

What's a bird?

[proud flicker]

government drone

[upbeat rain]

Ohhhh

Those things

[high coyote]

obviously that unknown creature that babstion posted earlier

[upbeat rain]

How did babstion capture a government drone

[daring turret]

they are part of a resistance group known as XCOM

Cute

[mild pelican]

interesting how over the years Lego slightly shifted from toys for kids to collectible pieces for dedicated people

[limber walrus]

they still have plenty of toys for kids, honestly

[mild pelican]

guess with the prices it was a matter of time

[limber walrus]

they just also have collectibles

source: I was in a Lego store a couple weeks ago

[blissful charm]

ough woke up and can't fall back to sleep

but too tired to do anything

[mild pelican]

familiar feeling

good thing internet is still with us

[limber walrus]

music helps me sometimes? or mindless youtube videos/chill twitch VODs?

[blissful charm]

that's not a bad idea, ty!

[mild pelican]

are there any english-speaking people here?

[upbeat rain]

no

[mild pelican]

ok

there is a question, how it should be written:
"the most bright photo part" or "the most bright part of the photo"

[upbeat rain]

its supposed to be written
"the most brightest photo of the part"

[faint panther]

the most bright part of the photo

[faint panther]

what no

[mild pelican]

i've heard just now, that using of and of the constructions is not welcomed

[upbeat rain]

lmao

[faint panther]

this or "the brightest part of the photo", just not both

[upbeat rain]

yeah

[limber walrus]

You could theoretically say "the most bright photo-part", but that requires "photo-part" to be an established construct

(in this case, it is not, so it wouldn't work)

[limber walrus]

In this case, "brightest" would be more correct than "most bright"

[faint panther]

there are some circumstances where most bright would make more sense, i.e. if they were previously talking about a "less bright" part. However in general yeah, brightest would be better

[blissful charm]

yeah it's definitely "the brightest part of the photo"

[faint panther]

gay

gay

[upbeat rain]

no u

[proud flicker]

The area which indicates the highest illuminating intensity while also belongs to this permanent light capturing device

[upbeat rain]

well said

[royal surge]

I feel there are attempts to still be relevant to kids. Their creator 3 in 1 kits are quite neat, their city- and ninjago brands still seem to be relatively popular, and they recently even started to sell decent scaled-down versions of popular star wars kits like the x-wing that don't cost an arm and a leg (sadly prices for most star wars kits are still WHAT). but yeah, there is a lot more decorative stuff aimed at adults

I don't know what a kid would do with a lego darth vader bust except smash it against the wall or try to build a torso.

[neon frigate]

Finally finished working
It feel nice to work again

Now off to watch anime show and play some video games in my steam library

P. S the bar I work for is now open indoors so I can finally work.

wait why do you need an account

you should be able to see it without logging in

[upbeat rain]

wait what

[limber walrus]

use a web browser

I just tested on desktop

and it worked fine

[dusty rover]

mobile asks for an account

[blissful charm]

that's very weird

[limber walrus]

I mean, it does ask

but I can just say no

lmao

[dusty rover]

no isn’t an option

[limber walrus]

this is what I see

[dusty rover]

i get an instagram log in page with the option to sign in with facebook

[limber walrus]

huh

what browser? I'm using chrome

[dusty rover]

i’m on mobile, so discord app

[limber walrus]

ah, aight

try opening in browser, maybe?

[dusty rover]

it does actually work on desktop, i don’t know why they always ask you to log in on mobile

[neon frigate]

so besides that actually im doing well and got a lot of work done today

[dry stratus]

clip studio paint has an interface that reminds me of a browser with a decked out toolbar

[limber walrus]

I read that as "Bowser" for a hot sec and was very confused

[dry stratus]

bowser with a decked out toolbar. what will he do

[bronze lintel]

deck the toolbar

[high coyote]

Bowser's really been upping his toolbar game

he might get Mario this time

[sudden torrent]

he will make the best card deck in the toolbar

[bronze lintel]

he's gonna put blue eyes white dragon in there

[high coyote]

uh

how do you remember the numbers?!?

[faint panther]

[faint panther]

the adamant fingers

im gonna start reacting to messages w dragon heads for no reason

theyre cute

[granite salmon]

I've been sitting here thinking "what does dragon heads mean?!?" for so long now

terribly sorry mr milo please continue looming

[wise wharf]

Reminds me of the imps in the Blackwagon

Maybe Milo is part imp?

[blissful charm]

the blackwagon is powered by drive imps right? maybe he can power my car

[wise wharf]

It is! But given Milo's tendencies your car would be jumping all around the city

[blissful charm]

it would. it would just drive on top of a building and Loom

[wise wharf]

This means Milo is better employed as a parking lot valet

Here's your keys sir, your car is on top of that building

[blissful charm]

asdgvhds his true calling

[wise wharf]

looms

[blissful charm]

he doesn't do it much anymore but he used to like to lie on top of the cabinet over the fridge and stare down and judge

[wise wharf]

You're adding pepper to those eggs? Think Babstion, think 👉🧠 👈

I'm just glad he's not a black cat. Would have been much spookier

[blissful charm]

that'd be terrifying

i have a tuxedo but he is not a spooky boy at all

[wise wharf]

You...have a cat tuxedo?
We gotta see that sometime

[blissful charm]

mr victor frankenstein

[wise wharf]

Ah. I thought you had a tuxedo for your cat. Glad to see Vicfrank doesn't use his darkness for scary purposes

[blissful charm]

ashxbshdc no that'd be so funny tho

[wise wharf]

Pyre spoilers ||Rukey and Ti'zo look rather regal in their robes. So that would be a sight to see||

[dusty rover]

you head down to the fridge for a midnight snack. suddenly, the lights turn on and you look up to see three cats wearing the vestaments of the rites.

[wise wharf]

For real, that's probably what happened to ||Barker (staying in the Downside) after he retires from the new-rites. Goes for a snack, finds his nephews asking to train with him. At midnight||

[dusty rover]

barker would absolutely approve and face them one on three

[wise wharf]

He'd be retired at this point 😦
But depending on how springy he feels I could see that happen

[faint panther]

Im extremely late so i do apologize but thats awesome to hear

i wanna carry him like a baby

[blissful charm]

he hates being carried so much he just starts wigglin out

[high coyote]

I've always wanted to carry a ferret

it's very enjoyable to walk around holding what is just essentially a very large weighted sock

I'm from india here, and it's really horrible a lot of people are dying and the healthcare system is failing. thankfully the peak is over and it's beginning to get better, but it's still really bad. there's a shortage of hospital beds and oxygen and a lot of supplies. even a vaccine shortage.
fortunately in my immediate vicinity there aren't too many cases and things are looking up, but as a country it's really bad

[faint canyon]

That’s really unfortunate to hear, hope the situation will get better there, buddy

[indigo walrus]

In the UK it's quite alright now, I'd say. The new cases are not increasing (but are the same for 2 months now, which is not ideal). A lot of people got the vaccine already. The restrictions are easing up step by step, restaurants allow in-house eating, you can meet indoors with up to 6 people, indoor entertainment (cinemas, theatres etc) are open with Covid-secure measures. January this year was the worst, now it eased up and looks like it's on a good way to get back to normal within the next few months.

Sorry to see it's that bad in your country, Pyro... hang in there

This seem to be rather accurate, btw: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries

[mild pelican]

Official statistics says, that in Russia things are not that bad, but some independent researches prove that it's much much worse than it seems. There is still no quarantine, authorities are watching everybody to wear masks and gloves, but people mostly ignore the recommendations, putting them up only when needed. Some public places have strict control, everyone have to pass temperature check before entering, no crowding inside, etc. But it creates awfully long lines and crowds in front of that places, and nobody seem to care. Most of the people i know personally prefer to stay indoors as much as possible. There are some vaccines going on, but the info about them is too controversial. Some say, that it's actually works and one of the best in the world, but the director of the medical department, responsible for the qualification of medications has died yesterday after the shot.. people seem to avoid getting the vacs without necessity..

[quartz meteor]

Hallooo

[severe rune]

sup

[quartz meteor]

I have a cool name right?

[severe rune]

what does it mean

[quartz meteor]

It's a cool name

[bronze lintel]

very

[severe rune]

Does it literally mean "cool name"

[faint panther]

yeah

[royal relic]

hi
i have a question for all of you mind readers here

[upbeat rain]

No

[royal relic]

well dang
i guess you really can read minds

[upbeat rain]

You underestimate the power of pp man

[high coyote]

well I think I just got my first Discord server ban

another milestone

[upbeat rain]

What server banned you

And why

[high coyote]

I wouldn't say, privacy reasons

[upbeat rain]

Ok

So why

[high coyote]

the really boiled down version

[upbeat rain]

Alright

[high coyote]

I got mad
Creator got mad
Boot squish Ant

here we are now

[upbeat rain]

Nice

[high coyote]

oh wait

I was kicked

so I can join back when I've learned my lesson

what lesson am I supposed to learn

[upbeat rain]

Join when you learn how to get banned from a server

Since you have a lot of milestones that requires you getting banned from things

[upbeat scroll]

Yeah maybe we can get the mods here together and you can fulfill your milestone of getting banned from a verified ☑️ server

[upbeat rain]

True

[high coyote]

lets gooooooooooooooooooooooo

@mod-

[violet sky]

number 1 goal is ip banned from discord just sayin

[high coyote]

that's too far a star for my rocket vessel

[violet sky]

lol

[upbeat rain]

Speedrun getting banned from servers

[high coyote]

if I wanted to do that I'd just go to YandereDev's server

ez pz

that meme's still relevant, right?

[violet sky]

lol

[upbeat rain]

Lmao

[high coyote]

yeah I could get into details about my kick here

but it would just be me venting a ton

[royal relic]

wait
that was your first ban?

[high coyote]

nah it was my first kick

[royal relic]

boi

[high coyote]

yeah I know

I got it wrong

[royal relic]

i collect twitch and discord bans like my dad collected post stamps
the only difference being that i'm way better at this

nah jk - i'm not THAT bad... i think...
||though i still have some under my belt||

[dusty rover]

but have you screenshotted all your bans, printed them out, and pasted them in a photo album

[high coyote]

now THAT'S a milestone

[royal relic]

i should start doing that
kinda reminds me of that absolute legend that sawconned ubisoft on twitter

he will go down in history as the one

[faint panther]

Whats sawcon??

[violet sky]

THE ONE

[royal relic]

oh no

OH NOOOOO

who's gonna do the honors?

[faint panther]

Joe mama

[upbeat rain]

Ok

Saying joe mama doesn't save you from disaster

[limber walrus]

I'd say Pokimane's server is faster if you want to speedrun being banned

[violet sky]

you can get banned in 0.0 seconds from YandereDev's server

[high coyote]

yeah

[violet sky]

theres speedruns which is the most funny thing for me

[high coyote]

just name yourself that one meme I can't say here and you're golden

[royal relic]

honestly - i'm just waiting for someone to pull the trigger on this one
it's all set up - someone just has to do the honors and write those sweet, sweet words

[high coyote]

I don't want to

I'll get in trouble

[upbeat rain]

We have to wait

[royal relic]

[upbeat rain]

They are offline

We have to make sure they read it

[royal relic]

• ladies and gentlemen *
• we gottem *

[blissful charm]

what're you hooligans getting up to

[high coyote]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

uh

👀💦

[violet sky]

simply getting em some food from the pantry is all to go along with their nice play session of bastion

[royal relic]

oh hey that's a really cool looking hamm-

[upbeat rain]

Say the words so you can finally get banned

[high coyote]

I can't get banned from here I suck at Hades I need people to help me

[royal relic]

it's not a ban
it's a one way hard more switch for hades

glass half full and all that

[high coyote]

well I got to the epilogue with no help how bad can the switch be

[violet sky]

https://tenor.com/view/turn-off-shut-off-switch-off-kill-the-lights-lights-off-gif-12198682

[high coyote]

that except then the switch gets flicked this happens

https://tenor.com/view/saussiçon-explode-boom-gif-16089684

[faint panther]

deez n-
nevermind

[royal relic]

nah nah yeah nah
it's too late for that
it was a fleeting moment and it passed

[proud flicker]

[quick cairn]

favorite fe game

[proud flicker]

Who's Anthiese?

[quick cairn]

||celica||

[proud flicker]

very fun game

favorite fe game and just one of my more favorited AAA games

[blissful charm]

#video-games my pals

[quick cairn]

👍 :3

[blissful charm]

thank u

[blissful charm]

oh rip in piss me i just realized a huge project i have not worked on at all is due in a week and a half

[upbeat rain]

Rip in piss?

[blissful charm]

it's like when you say rip but taking it to the next level

[upbeat rain]

Nah I'm just confused about the piss part

[blissful charm]

gonna be real i dont know, like someone i know said it and it resonated in my soul and thats the best i can give

[upbeat rain]

Oh lmao

I've heard rip in pieces but not rip in piss

[blissful charm]

i dont know if it's a thing besides like what me and my friends say

[upbeat rain]

Cool

Lol

[blissful charm]

but the point i have Made Mistakes and am gonna have to try and burn thru this as fast as possible

[upbeat rain]

Well rip

Good luck on your project

[proud flicker]

how long did you think you have?

[faint panther]

Not rip in pepperonis?

[blissful charm]

uhhh this project was assigned at the beginning of the term

[violet sky]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-squarepants-spongebob-procrastination-rainbow-happy-gif-5073196

but honestly same

[blissful charm]

see i am (usually) very good at managing my time and getting things done on time but if it's something like "you have the whole term" im just gonna be like "oh ill work on this later" and then it's the end of the term

this is the 2nd time ive done this

[swift valley]

me-irl

[proud flicker]

so what you are telling me is that you already succeeded?

[blissful charm]

that's true! altho the instructions for the first were a lot less vague

[swift valley]

• has 1 month to prep a talk
• starts making slides the night before
• basically finished slides, closed laptop, and went straight to give talk

this was before all that quarantine stuff

[proud flicker]

Why do anything over a semester when you can rush it in a day?

Seems like a no brainer to me

[steel aurora]

lowkey insinuates there's an out-of-real-life version of you

[proud flicker]

its' called a fursona, yes those people are real

[steel aurora]

Fair

[swift valley]

did you mean: vtuber

[proud flicker]

I don't get Vtubers tbh

[swift valley]

I know little of them besides the term

[blissful charm]

so a vtuber is like. a streamer but they have some cutesy anime lady as an avatar, right?

[swift valley]

that was my impression

[faint panther]

Instead of a webcam, yes.

Or rather, you have a webcam but there's additional software and if it's coded well the avatar matches your motions.

[dry stratus]

i was looking to get a humanoid vtuber

the anime models are cute but idk if i wanna go full anime 😐

[blissful charm]

there's something about it that's unsettling to me

just these placidly smiling young anime teens

[upbeat scroll]

Some models are extremely expressive

[faint panther]

The very first one I saw was really kind of a meme avatar.

[upbeat scroll]

Was it the gun one

[faint panther]

It was a cat head on top of a dapper Castlevania/Bloodborne costume.

The lower jaw moved like a cartoon cutout.

I know a guy that streamed a few times with a Kanbaru Suruga (Bakemonogatari) avatar.

I can do just barely-passable impressions so I was looking for some Dragon Ball avatars but couldn't find one that fit.

[quick cairn]

i see the description of castelvania/bloodborne and im just like "you mean like.... Victorian era dresswear

[faint panther]

............Yes.

I mean exactly that.

I'm sorry, it was for a Bloodborne stream and that's the only descriptor that came to mind.

[dry stratus]

yeah some of the models i've been looking at are 'expensive' but tbh... the cost doesn't surprise me. if you go all out, you're paying for character reference sheets, logos, twitch layouts, icons, alerts, the model itself, rigging, animation, plus anything extra like extra emotions...

these kinda costs are comparable to the kinds of costs good tattoo artists charge. and like. this is art, you know? too many artists undercharge for what they deliver

sorry if it sounds preachy! just some remarks made after having paid for commissions in the past, y'know?

[proud flicker]

So I Google the word Psychic for a Pokemon move but didn't specify Pokemon.
Now I'm getting ads for psychic matchmakers. Why, Google, why?

[swift valley]

I'm more surprised that psychic matchmaking is a large enough field to be making ads

[upbeat scroll]

maybe it's a sign

:P

[steel aurora]

you'd think they'd be able to predict their partner

[upbeat scroll]

No its like

You hire a psychic to find you a date

Or somethin

[steel aurora]

Ohhhh

I thought it was like grindr for fortune tellers

[upbeat scroll]

I dunno if a fortune teller would want to date another fortune teller

I feel like they'd argue a lot

[steel aurora]

That's why they'd need a third partner to be the mediator

[dusty rover]

that gives a new meaning to “see, i knew you would react like this”

[wise wharf]

And when the stars align, the arguments shall come to bear 🎵 ✨

[mild pelican]

my doggo just had a nice breakfast.. and now he is lying near me and quietly whines, bc he wants to get his toy from the sofa, but too lazy to get up after the meal

[upbeat rain]

nice

[faint panther]

hello all

[violet sky]

👋

[high coyote]

https://imgur.com/J5prrPn

well what a way to wake up

[upbeat rain]

cool

[violet sky]

RIP

[high coyote]

yeah it's just a load of not fun soup

[royal relic]

twitter

i mean...

that's what they do

shame about your account tho

[high coyote]

I'm still upset about it

[royal relic]

yeah i get it

[high coyote]

like, I know WHY I got suspended
obviously the Twitter bot flagged me

but I filed an appeal
explaining that I made a joke
I was not inciting violence
I was actually subtly denouncing violence because I was making fun of them

I don't get it

[royal relic]

it's 2021 - we live in a post-joke world
especially on twitter

[high coyote]

well that sucks

>:(

I guess my alt account is now my main one

I'm gonna file another appeal
it's gonna do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
but I have to try

and now somebody's trying to tell me how I'm inciting violence and/or threatening death upon people for what I said

refresher for those who don't know this is what I said

https://imgur.com/qifjPoN

[upbeat scroll]

The joke isn't that funny... just take the L and be more careful next time lmao

It's not worth standing up for your convictions if you're just yelling at a robot who doesn't care

[high coyote]

well, okay, if the joke is funny or not is irrelevant in this case
the point that teh Twitter bot was trying to make is that I was "threatening and/or promoting violence"

which is just flat out wrong?

[mild pelican]

bots can't humour

they are machines

[high coyote]

I even explained the context

in an appeal

[high coyote]

I think I'm just the most upset with the fact that they took this out of context, I can take pretty much anything out of context and make it look bad

[royal relic]

mate - big tech doesn't care
they care about their blue checkmarks and ad revenue
twitter is an awful place anyway

[high coyote]

it's worth it if I can get my Twitter back

[mild pelican]

that's how modern politics is made

[high coyote]

it's an awful place that I can't leave 🤷‍♂️

[royal relic]

• looks out the window *

[high coyote]

also I have learned A lesson here

[royal relic]

i could make a joke here like that, but...
naaaaah

[high coyote]

that lesson being
yeah don't really say that anymore

I can't take the L though I'm too stubborn

[dry stratus]

just wondering- were you previously aware of how sensitive twitter bots are in regards to tweets that have things like "die" or "kill" in them?

[high coyote]

well...

no...

that was a stupid thing from me

and looking back I would've done it differently

MUCH
differently

[royal relic]

• oh hey what's your favorite metallica album?
• oh it's kill 'em all

• banned *

[dry stratus]

so something that surprised me about twitter two years into being on the platform was how sensitive the site was to such terms compared to the lax moderation of reddit or tumblr

[royal relic]

• oh hey what's your favorite gojira song?
• oh it's art of dying!

• banned *

[mild pelican]

i don't even know actually

why is that even considered a solution

[dry stratus]

i've seen people being shadow banned on twitter just for including the word "donation" uncensored in their tweets

[high coyote]

why is what considered a solution?

[upbeat scroll]

The difference is that twitter has like... world leaders active on it

[high coyote]

wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait

what?

[mild pelican]

like, oh, we've banned the threatening object, now it can do no harm?

[royal relic]

⚪ ⚪ ⚪ Several people are typing...

[high coyote]

heh heh

[royal relic]

oh boy here we go

[high coyote]

I'd go but I think I have an obligation to stay considering I kinda started this

[dry stratus]

100% agree with riddler when they said to take the L because it was a stupid tweet to make imo but twitter's moderation is notoriously fickle and... imo overkill (and that term could get me suspended, you know??)

[high coyote]

well what's the harm in filing multiple appeals

[mild pelican]

you're not allowed to be stupid in 2021..

think right things or ~~die ~~get banned

[dry stratus]

no harm imo. hopefully you do get your account back

[high coyote]

all it'll do is maybe take hours away from my regular existence but my existence is boring anyway

[high coyote]

same, probably won't happen, but same

[royal relic]

existence is futile!

oh wait, no - it's resistance

damn i always mix those up

[high coyote]

you're not wrong

[dry stratus]

i'm frantically trying not to laugh over the name "revolver kojima"

[royal relic]

[upbeat rain]

Lmao

[royal relic]

oh yeah i prolly have to change that again

i honestly forgot i had that on

[dry stratus]

lmao I love it

[upbeat rain]

Ye don't change it

[royal relic]

it's pretty good 👉 👉

[upbeat rain]

pp man is a better name tho

[royal relic]

i bet the mods are looking at this convo like

[high coyote]

it's the funny two letters together

[dry stratus]

this chat rn for me is just one long try not to laugh challenge

[mild pelican]

pp just means profile picture, right

[royal relic]

no it means pressure points

[upbeat rain]

Yes

[high coyote]

yeah...

[upbeat rain]

This is the supergiant games server

So I made my name hades related

[high coyote]

nice

[dry stratus]

speaking of mods lmao

anyway thanks for giving me a good laugh yall

[royal relic]

[upbeat rain]

Yes

[proud flicker]

PP means Power Points, aka how many times a Pokemon can use a move.

[royal relic]

power points?
oh you mean the most potent sleeping aid i've used back at uni?

[blissful charm]

you really have a pepe emote for everything

[proud flicker]

The higher up in education I go, the more people hate powerpoint

[blissful charm]

i like powerpoint but not a whole lot

[royal relic]

hell yeah i do

[dry stratus]

fully using powerpoint for one of my tech classes and my course coordinator can deal with it

would use canva or piktochart for the aesthetics but both rely on premium subscriptions

[proud flicker]

from what I see, people would make a pdf file and show that in full screen mode

but yeah, canva is good and if you are real sweaty you can use latex I guess

[dry stratus]

that's interesting. at my uni they typically use microsoft sway

[upbeat scroll]

I've been using latex because my teacher requires it and honestly it's the least bad part about that class

It's a tool popular enough and simple enough that if I wanna know how to do something I can google it and the first result works

[proud flicker]

yeah, honestly it's pretty easy.
copy and paste a template.
learn to make equations and that's about all you need to know.
it's meant to be standardized, after all.

[royal relic]

holy guacamole

[proud flicker]

excuse me, it's LaTeX

[upbeat scroll]

get cher head out of the gutter

[royal relic]

never

[blissful charm]

@royal relic keep it clean please

[royal relic]

it's alright @blissful charm - i deserve that L for that

[wise wharf]

Oooh someone said LaTeX. Wonderful stuff

(Yes I dislike the name very much. But it allows for beautiful things)

[royal relic]

oh noooo

one of these days i'm gonna get super banned for making those dumb jokes

[blissful charm]

anyway my roommate bought bread yesterday and left it on the counter and this is what victor did

the man behind the crime

[royal relic]

look at that face
that's the "what are you gonna do about it?" face

cute

[wise wharf]

Aha. He was judging from the counter when a bread appeared on his sights

[dawn gust]

Hehe

[upbeat rain]

The man just wants some bred

[royal relic]

i guess i really do have a pepe for every occasion

[dawn gust]

morning

[bronze lintel]

Morn

I made a mistake on making my coffee

Taste bitter

[royal relic]

that's good tho

you need that strong kick to start off the day

i got up at 9 and quickly chugged a big ole mug of black, thick bitter sludge before running off for an interview
also known as coffee
and now it's 1 pm and i'm sipping a monster

n-nah it's fine i can take it

[upbeat rain]

i am a professional painter now

https://youtu.be/jpsGLsaZKS0

[bronze lintel]

Nah, I'm more on specialty coffee side. I go for sweeter, acidic coffee

Which is just a long way of saying "yes, I'm a hipster"

[dawn gust]

haha hipster

[royal relic]

so...
a friend just told me that american chocolate apparently... tastes differently?

i always thought chocolate is just... chocolate

[upbeat rain]

ye i heard that american chocolate is different from the rest of the world

[bronze lintel]

Well

I've tasted diff chocolate taste

Though I've never delved in it

[bitter magnet]

._.

whats different about american chocolate

[royal relic]

i dunno
never tasted it

[bronze lintel]

Sugar counts?

[bitter magnet]

lmao i looked it up and its just hershey's bars

American chocolates are lighter and sweeter; using a smaller variety of ingredients like caramel, almonds, peanuts, and chocolate cream. European chocolate, in comparison, is darker and richer. Its ingredients could be anything from fruits, nuts, spices, and herbs, to caramels, ganaches and more.

so its milk chocolate

[bronze lintel]

I guess

[granite salmon]

https://youtu.be/jTpHLR60XSs

There’s videos on it

[mint narwhal]

as an american I can safely say american chocolate sucks

I feel sick just looking at that
lactose intolerance is fun

[royal relic]

i too lack toes in toddler ants and i'm fine

[upbeat rain]

what is lack toast in taller ants?

[mint narwhal]

its when the taller ants dont have enough toast

[royal relic]

[upbeat rain]

yeah but like why do you have it

[mint narwhal]

bc

the taller ants bit me so now Im a wareant

[granite salmon]

It would look amazing if it was pure milk choco & didn’t have caramel

Milka is yum

Or if it was the one w Oreo

That one is really yum

[mint narwhal]

Caramel is good

[granite salmon]

I don’t like caramel

[mint narwhal]

but my body decided it hates me so I cant eat anything sweet or I just die for like 5 minutes

[granite salmon]

It’s either too sweet or too salty and the texture is shudder

[royal relic]

oh yeah that oreo one is just

gppb

[mint narwhal]

Salted Caramel imo is just 😩

[granite salmon]

I got a small bar as an Easter present & I fell in love

And then I found a shop near my brother that sells it

So I’m happy

[mint narwhal]

Oreo candy bars are good

[granite salmon]

I can buy it when I’m babysitting

[mint narwhal]

but again, my body hates me

my body hasnt agreed with me at all lately

[royal relic]

[mint narwhal]

first, body no longer permits me to eat dairy
"ok, thats a normal thing that happens" I think
now I cant eat sweets
and like 2 months I found out Im trans so thats been FuUuUuN

thanks body

youre so helpful!!!

(this is a joke, my body despises me)

[granite salmon]

Sweets or sugar

[mint narwhal]

both

[granite salmon]

So no fruits either

No berries

[mint narwhal]

I can eat fruit which is weird

[granite salmon]

So natural sugars are ok

[mint narwhal]

I dont know why I can eat fruit but I can

[granite salmon]

The fruit sugar

[royal relic]

dried banunus are a nice snack

sweet, healthy

[granite salmon]

Try making some dried fruits

[royal relic]

gppb stuff

[granite salmon]

Dried apple, banana, berries, pineapple

Etc

[mint narwhal]

I ate like a spoonful of pure cane sugar as a joke and felt like death for like 15 minutes afterwards

[granite salmon]

It’s a nice little snack

[bitter magnet]

dried fruits are the bane to my existence

i hate them so much

[mint narwhal]

once again, god had cursed me for my hubris

[granite salmon]

And if you can have bananas then you can try to make vegan ice cream

[royal relic]

dang
what did that poor do to you?

[granite salmon]

No dairy no sugars

No sweeteners

[mint narwhal]

Bananas are great

[granite salmon]

Just fruits & bananas & coconut

[bitter magnet]

bananas are good

but dried

💀

[mint narwhal]

I cant eat ice cream either.
the coldness bother my teeth

[bitter magnet]

lmao banana chips tho

[mint narwhal]

which sucks because I love ice cream

[granite salmon]

Then make ice cream soup

[bitter magnet]

ah yes
