re: plurality 

@terrana Thinking about this, I think one of the most important things we've learned is that subjective experience is no less important or real than objective experience. Plenty of things like this, you're (general you, not specific) the only one (or in our case ones) who can say anything about it with any authority.

re: plurality 

@terrana Yeah. Though it could be said that given the same exact degree of blending, one person might decide that "I" fits better, while another system might decide that "we" fits better--not that "degree of blending" is really something that can be measured in any objective way, though

re: plurality 

@terrana For us at least, being blended is sometimes distressing and sometimes comfortable? We're in a sort of semi-blended state constantly these days, though not to the degree you seem to be.

@owashii@plush.city @moonbolt what we saw was that the discontinuation was only in the UK stores, and everywhere else still gets blåhaj

@ziphi There was one of those in DPPt, wasn't there? As part of the contests?

Maybe we'll get a more in-depth one with the remakes

@bj Clearly, the solution is to trap them all on road signage.

"sputtering" is a very appropriate name for what it is, i think

@VoxSomniator a nice session in a pressurized chlorine trifluoride chamber will get rid of all those nasty nanobots quite handily

it will also get rid of everything else including you, though

@VoxSomniator turns out, it's really easy to make stuff that kills nanobots.

the problem is making stuff that doesn't also kill literally everything else

@patchwork ah, we still haven't played the first one

after playing undertale we determined we were not capable of handling another game of that emotional impact until something changes

@owashii@plush.city @LexYeen I'm pretty sure the master sword is sized like a longsword, which isn't intended to be used one-handed

Character design thoughts (long) (the basics) 

So, I was talking elsewhere to people about a character I've had for a very long time, one of my favorite character concepts yet one who I've not yet managed to really write out a world around.

Aditi, aka Aaron, is a two-bodied ferrets. He has two complete bodies, independent and not physically connected in any way. This led to some awkwardness growing up; until she was around four or five years old, her parents thought he was twins, and had been raising him as such. Multi-bodied individuals are not unheard of in this setting, but they're sufficiently uncommon that it just wasn't something Aditi's parents really considered a possibility at first.

Being raised as two people simultaneously had some effects on her mentality. For one, as he was raised simultaneously as a boy and as a girl (one of his bodies is afab, and the other amab), she manages to be genderqueer and nonbinary (bigender, specifically, both male and female at once, but emphatically not something in between or half-and-half) and yet also technically kind of cis at the same time.

This, incidentally, is why the pronouns are weird here. He uses both she/her and he/him semi-randomly intermixed. It's also why he has two names.

While she has one "male" body and one "female" body, she doesn't generally care that much about gendered presentation, and dresses both bodies from the same wardrobe. He does have an eye for fashion, making sure to look good, but she doesn't go out of his way to keep the masculine outfits on her masculine body--he can absolutely look fantastic in a dress whichever body wears it.

Aditi is technically still legally considered two people, mostly because she just can't be bothered to go through the whole process of getting that updated. It doesn't generally cause problems.

hm. sometimes we feel really envious of things other people can do easily that we can't do without significant struggle, if we can at all

i don't really know how to address this--it's definitely an us problem though, not anything anyone else is doing wrong

@artemis@vulpine.club @LexYeen this parsed really weirdly--UHF has a completely different meaning to electrical engineers than whatever it means here
