re: :thaenkin: , personal 

@mawr Yeah, I have problems with that too, especially since I'm living by myself now. I've had to be kind to myself and stop trying to do it all, and also just... pick something from high priority, something from medium, and something for fun, if anything. Not as organized as such, but... it's difficult to not stress or guilt myself about it. Still working on that.

Speaking of which, dishes need doin'. :-}

@Kyresti Short version: Rick Astley's one hit is full of utter bullshit and sets a completely unrealistic standard for a relationship.

@Kyresti Kinda depends on what you define as 'safe', too. If you mean 'will never ever hurt you', then almost everyone fails that sometime. :-/

re: California meta, the Salton Sea, youtube 

@LexYeen@snouts.online I've known about the Salton Sea, but didn't know the propaganda about it. The art is...really interesting, and very Californian.

more kink thought debris 

@kistaro Maybe you need a kobold or two? :-)

re: lewd trashpost 

@LexYeen@snouts.online Well, the ones that are kangas, at least!

Could also be an acronym. Subbed-up beyond expected reason. :-P

on content warning/filter/general masto etiquette, salty 

@LexYeen@snouts.online This might have changed, but last I saw, word filters don't even work on CWs. :-/

re: otherkinny body stuff 

@tastymochafox So wait, which one of you has wings? :-)
(and yes wing massage is gooooood)

@rey who need new glasses, when we can afford them. :-)

(I do love coming up with ad-hoc solutions like this, no lie.)

@rey Yeah uh...I am remembering that I've been wearing this fix for...4-5 months maybe? Paper clip bent with pliers, plus electrical tape. :-/

Dream-based story seed 

A 'magical [girl] squad' setup, except after the show has ended.

Someone stumbles on a ship that was once the headquarters of such a squad. The Big Bad has long since been defeated. The AI mission-giver in the ship is a bit loopy and without purpose. It wants new recruits, now that it's woken back up, but it doesn't know what for.

There's technology (magic) just laying around the ship that's vastly more advanced than anything on this entire planet.

The first discoverer, a social psych graduate student in a university, comes back the next day with friends. Students from behavioral psych, computer science, physics, engineering, and anthropology. They form a squad of six, get the usual costumes and powers--and completely ignore them, getting to work on very different projects.

The compsci major analyzes the ship's computer system and figures out what there is that can be hacked into. The physics and engineering majors try to reverse-engineer the high levels of technology and try to find uses for it. Anthropology gets to work out how human culture across the planet would react to the introduction of near-miraculous technology--and how to release it in stages without letting on where it's coming from. The social psych gets to wrangle everyone and be the 'team leader'. And behavioral psych gets to play therapist to a neurotic AI, easing their madness and convincing them of their mission.

They proceed to change the world, without fighting.
