@Soreth *arches her tail up* I wish, but unfortunately everyone else will have to look at it for me~.

@Soreth Raarrrqsqrk.

Raarar.

@Veladynee Sqrrk!

@thamesynne I ran into a similar problem myself in the past with my Nintendo account. I got a new phone, and forgot I had Google Authenticator installed on the last one, and had 2FA on my Nintendo account.

I couldn't simply reinstall Authenticator and authenticate that way, so I had to contact support to have 2FA removed, oops.

Idly thinking about the fact I sometimes mess up grammatical syntax or use old fashioned terminology, oft for sarcastic effect, but instead about ways it could be used to give off an old-fashioned draconic dialect.

Shame about that character limits on social media mean I usually have to curtail a few words.

A retweet of a Twitter conversation, for context.

"You don't have to make things work that way, but you get more users."

The use of "users" reveals that these ghouls are only interested in profit and engagement. The nebulous ideas of how their JPG receipts could improve video games is just an excuse to placate actual players.

"Eventually most will have to."

Also they're a cult.
Like this is the same bull-headed single-mindedness behind the techno-religious that think we're in a simulation - the deification of technology.

To be more specific: there's a certain inevitability that I feel from both kinds of people. When it comes to "we live in a simulation" the justification is "there would be more simulated universes than real ones, therefore it's more likely we live in a simulation".
By what metric? Where are you getting the idea there's more simulations? By your own logic?

And yet it's used in their worldview without doubt, passionately, like a spiritual faith. That same vibe comes from those pushing crypto as a future.

Honestly wondering how feasible it would be to just drop everything and hide out on IRC forever.
... none of the people I wanna chat with would follow, and my brain worms would get upset at the silence.

@Oneironott Does going out to a cafe with dragonkin count? (or better yet brewing tea at home with everyone in species kigus)

@Rusanya_Collective I'm sure there's plenty of people that would love to be able to be their pokesonas, but just imagine the legal wrangling that would involve having a robot (or something) body built with intellectual property law being what it is... ...

I had a dream last night where I had a giant inflatable toy of myself. It was in a sitting on all fours pose, and the torso came up about to my head. I don't remember how accurate it was. It was also leaking with a split across a seam so I was trying to tape it up as a temporary measure. D:

... there was also piles of various plushies everywhere and I had three cats instead of one.

Not sure what this dream was trying to tell me.

jesus christ that toot hit it off huh

I have personally noticed how recurring this sentiment this is nowadays online - the desire to be our real selves - even amongst "mainstream" furries, as it were.
Either this says a lot more people are deeply non-human than we realise, or we're all just really tired of the human condition.
