A Feathered Friend @SomeEgrets@awoo.space

Really not sure how to deal with the feeling of futility, powerlessness and uselessness that comes with knowing the world is trying to devour itself, probably within our lifetime, and there doesn't seem to be anything that anyone can do about it.

I'm still not sure I want to actually write all this out, but more and more, my hot take on typical JRPG design is that the battles are almost universally an anti-feature that just happens to fill a necessary space in the game.

Thinking about the person who tweeted the "your brain can run a tail" thing and how they probably unexpectedly have literally every furry in the world in their mentions right now.

Probably wasn't expecting that.

@XerTheSquirrel oh, I do this too! And sometimes I make the sand make metal, wood, and glass do other things.

The weather is currently:
Foggy with a chance of crows

I swear to cats, I know the article is too... ambitious, and the science is more like "this would probably work in theory I guess?" but if anyone ACTUALLY tried to go ahead with blocking out the sun, it's our moral imperative to immediately burn down everything they build

oops, I meant to tweet this to the account where I whine about stuff so I don't bother everyone about this stuff.

I think a big part of my perpetual furry indecision is that I'm (me, personally) very much a cat person.

But I keep wanting to make that fit into bird, because bird goals. But I also want something I have a personal stake in, not just an impersonal character. I dunno!

Cat is making increasingly sad noises because I'm not giving him food... while he's still literally licking his lips because he was just eating the food I had already put out.

I love my quirky furry baby.

But that can coexist with the fact that I'm so so so tired of remakes and having the same things sold back to us over and over and over, ad infinitum.

And I am so, so, so tired of the relentless, dogged pursuit of """realism""" in visual media when we can do so much more.

Seeing a lot of "wow, don't criticise TLK remake, a lot of animators worked hard on it" - and yeah like, I'm sure they did. And it's technically very impressive looking and they're talented people and I don't question that for a second.

For no particular reason, having a bunch of thoughts about older jrpg structure and mechanics tonight.

Bunch of disjointed thoughts and criticisms probably not amounting to much. Maybe some oddball ideas. Too hard and rambling to put into tweetable chunks, anyway.

Friday night!
Time to eat some questionable meat!

(I mean dinner, what were YOU thinking of?)

I should stop Canada Politics tweeting, this doesn't end up going anywhere good

Jesus fuck they're not even talking about postal workers anymore, it's just the Liberal Party and Conservatives campaigning against each other

Has literally anybody brought up that if Canada Post is this critical to literally everything, maybe their demands are entirely reasonable for the importance of their work?

Wow, Patty Hadju getting shouted down with "SHAME!" for her speech forcing Canada Post workers to resume work from a legal strike position is good stuff.

LRT: I miss google reader so much

Sure there are other things, but it was... just really good.

Q: how much icy hot can you use before you die of transdermal icy hot poisoning?

Because I'm literally trying to just burn out my pain receptors now, sift through the wreckage later.

Everyone on the road is such a dickass today, wow.
