A reminder that there are other, secret ways of voting. Protesting and supporting protests materially and labor-wise is one. Calling public officials to pressure them is another. Take some time and read this now, then act on it tomorrow.

remembering that it took us *way* too long to realize that the reason blue LEDs always looked like they were lower on the device when they were on than when they were off was because of chromatic aberration in our glasses

what would happen if you used an electron gun in atmosphere

would it just glow like a corona discharge thing i guess?

social -? 

blrf, someone we sent money to for a commission a long while ago is now doing more of the same type of commission and seems to have forgotten ours completely and we tried gently poking them about it but i don't know what to do

they didn't reply, but i don't know if they *ever* check fedi anymore, i think they crosspost from twitter

who needs gender, anyway

you ever think about how cute weasels are

was it ever possible to get hd-dvd-rs?

i guess that means Memories of Celceta takes place around where @socks lives!

Show thread

huh, just learned that Celceta is the Ys-world version of the Iberian peninsula. That's a less obvious name than Romn (Ys-world Italic peninsula), Greek (Ys-world Greece), and Garman (Ys-world General Vicinity Of Germany). I wonder what it comes from?

(if you're not familiar:

Team Symphonia made Tales of Symphonia, Tales of the Abyss, Tales of Vesperia, and collaborated with team destiny on Tales of Xillia, Tales of Xillia 2, and Tales of Zestiria

Brownie Brown made Magical Vacation, Sword of Mana, Magical Starsign, and Mother 3, among others

I assume you know what Sonic Team and The Pokemon Company made, it's kind of obvious)

Show thread

some universities have classes about the film styles of even specific directors (especially ones like kubrick who have very well-regarded styles); there should be one of those but for games from specific series or made by specific teams

imagine a deep dive into the games made by team symphonia or brownie brown or hell, even sonic team or the pokemon company

Show thread

speaking of, it'd be really neat to see more people talk about video games as a form of literature or film

you don't see people often doing in depth analyses of the story and presentation of video games like you do for books and movies
-F

Show thread

i feel like video game collecting is probably one of the most rewarding things we've gotten into over the years. so many great games we would never have experienced otherwise, many of which have substantial literary merit as well as just being fun
