@chr this is *really* pretty

I don't have the energy right now to be properly excited but looking forward to seeing the full thing all together <3

@heatherhorns what reminds you of that?

@rey also while checking out of curiosity whether there are any other obscure meanings of the word date (there are a few, but all obviously derived from the time thing), we discovered that the word date meaning the social activity has been borrowed from english into danish, dutch, bokmål, and nynorsk (the latter two being the two main varieties of norwegian)

it's also a word in french, italian, spanish, and portuguese, all descended from the same latin root (an inflection of dō, to give)

@rey i didn't see the first post so i'm answering based on thoughts reading it here

@typhlosion i'll be surprised if this doesn't exist, but unfortunately i couldn't tell you what it's called
-F

@trysdyn "machine learning" aka "we can't be held liable if it doesn't work"
-F

@trysdyn i have to wonder how much it even helps the problem
-F

@trysdyn i'm mostly just frustrated because this is making things difficult for us as part of a bad solution to a problem that shouldn't exist, that only exists because some people are just awful people, and that this is the solution they give feels like they're using it as an excuse to farm more data and it's just, ugh

everything about it is bad
-F

@trysdyn like is this a new thing that only started in the last couple weeks or something because this has only been happening for a few weeks but it's *every* stream other than ones we were already watching before this started
-F

@trysdyn there needs to be a better solution to this

why haven't we seen it from any of the people we've been watching for a while?
-F

please stop doing this people

*every* time we want to check out a new twitch streamer, *every* time, they have that setting on that means we have to give twitch our phone number before we're allowed to say anything

@Oneironott poetry is the embodiment of "rules are meant to be broken", in that the rules primarily exist so that they can be broken

@owashii@plush.city fair enough! we liked it but it also wasn't a game we kept playing a lot after finishing the story
-F

@owashii@plush.city It might just be you, we liked it a lot? never played the original snap though maybe it doesn't live up to it

the story is nothing, as usual for pokemon games other than PMD, but the gameplay is good

@relee by which i mean, nonanthros mostly are fine when it comes to eye contact unless it's like, really intense
-F

@relee actually direct eye contact from non-human-looking beings is usually fine, like the post @hourlyfoxbot just posted is just adorable, not a problem
-F

@relee it's particularly bad for us at least with photos of human faces, and it likely would be a problem for us in that case, but it's not now
