I talk about personal things that can get tangentially NSFW. While I wouldn't call this an after-dark account, it's kind of a mishmash personal account and prefer to mingle with people I know or trust.

What? Mastodon (main fork) update now requires javascript to load anything at all on permalinks outside the "app"/interface side? UGHHHHHH.
We're really tired of every website everywhere using javascript to load content - this web-appifying of everything. It's an absolutely baffling disregard for HTML. Don't see any reason at all for it to need to do this.
Decadent silica gel.

Kunosato: "By dead spots, I refer to the blind spots in the visual cortex of the human brain."
"Affecting these areas means transmitting your own delusions into them, so that the target sees your delusion."
"When that happens, the target perceives that delusion as a completely real phenomenon."
[Note: delusion = daydream]
Miyashiro: "B-but that's just a hallucination, isn't it? It's no different than hypnosis."
Kunosato: "Hypnosis? Really? Then what if every single person around you recognises that delusion as reality?"
Miyashiro: "Every single person?"
Kunosato: "That's right. And what if by 'everyone', I meant 'every single person in Shibuya'?"
"Or what if that spread to everyone in Tokyo, then everyone in Japan, and then everyone in the world? Who would tell you it wasn't real?"
Miyashiro: "Th-that's..."
Kunosato: "At that point, your delusion ceases to be a fantasy or hallucination. It then becomes reality. That's why we call it realbooting."
Chaos;Child minor spoilers, on magic/woo
The interesting thing about Chaos;Child (and Chaos;Head)'s concept of the Dirac Sea, "delusions", and consensus reality, is it reminds us a little of some things we've read before on some magic/kin-related personal websites back in the late-00s/early-10s.
There was a web page that supposed that, if everyone in the world sincerely believed a specific person could use fire magic, then they could. And that was what "real magic" was. Which just seemed a little silly to us, especially when you factor in that a significant portion of people require evidence or experience to "believe" something.
But regardless this concept here is just the same, really. Only involving some theory involving negative energy and antiparticles.

That seems unwise, Arin.
(cw for body horror in full image)
We've been setting up our FA (https://www.furaffinity.net/user/tayruu/) on the chance it's going to get more hits as furries go back to it, and then remembered... oh right we should probably add "don't add my art to e621" to our profile because otherwise lurkers that use artists like a commodity will make off with our uploads. :T
social media meta, twitter, deviantart, grump
Could websites please stop treating artists like a commodity?
Please.
Wow, actual activity...
mastodon (or social media general) design take
The local and federated timelines don't need to exist.
"What about discoverabiltiy" what do you mean what about discoverability why are so many people so social-media-poisoned about discoverability oh my god.
Blarghlraaar.
I had a dream about plane dragons last night.
Well, a dream about a story about plane dragons.
Inside a tome of smut short stories that was practically two inches thick.
But still!
vr selfies
This avatar is extremely good and validating. I'm gonna keep repeating that, because aaaaa
Mastodon's image upload is *really* slow, so for some extra variants have this Twitter thread: https://twitter.com/Tayruu/status/1579345674428362753
vr selfies, somewhat provocative images
I commissioned Maitake Shiba for an avatar. I tried it out today. I spent much time being a squirmy euphoric mess.
oh god I'm 33
Really need more things to post about here, hm...
