@AzureHusky Do what you need to do to help yourself feel better, one way or another. I'm sorry for your loss. >.<
Steven Universe Movie (spoilers), personal, abuse/abandonment
@Oneironott Yeeeeaaaah, same. It's more friends I thought I could trust than my father for me per se but yeah, if I hadn't found better people and subsequently grown as a person I'd... probably have turned out not unlike her. x.x
@irisjaycomics oh yeah, Single Ladies is actually super weird for a pop song, ahaha
@tom this metronome set to extratone speeds
@KitRedgrave Admittedly, that's exactly the part that got me to check it out in the first place, long after the popularity of them had faded (I only properly joined the fandom a little too late for them to be in their prime anyway - 2009 wasn't exactly the age of MUCKs anymore); at the end of the day however, I had only like three friends there that I could just as easily talk to elsewhere, and the rest of the community was nothing to write home about.
@KitRedgrave You do!
You also see lots and lots of people complaining about those - often with the exact same complaints people had about IRC channels back in the day ("it's full of assholes/people with reprehensible viewpoints/the rules are completely nonsensical/etc").
@KitRedgrave It's the same reason IRC just isn't that big a thing anymore - back then a channel was pretty much a community all of its own and you couldn't really choose to speak only to the people you wanted to in there, without resorting to making a whole new channel of your own and inviting them into it. It was an all or nothing kind of deal, bad actors who are well-liked enough by the admins to be kept around included.
@KitRedgrave Probably the latter, honestly; ever since social media became the predominant way of meeting new folks online the dynamics around that whole thing changed a lot, people have gotten way pickier about who they choose to interact with and that just doesn't work together well with a MUCK.
@noiob good feature
