🎶 Millennial Mic Check - by Kelsy Astra (CW: WIP Lyrics) 

Scented candles and wine,
A puff on my vape
Just low-fi and therapy
To help me escape

Mic check, mic check, 1-2, 1-2!
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do!
Mic check, mic check 1-2-3!
So many lies I can finally see!

The young get to dream,
Kept asleep in the dark,
And the future is ours
Why I feel like a Stark?

Fed stories of honor
That turn out to be false,
But money rules here
Ignore that at your cost

Cartoons and sugar,
Ritalin, ADHD
Can’t afford the doctor,
But it hurts when I

Piece together the story
And the lies I was told,
The ones who did it are dying
First they moved the gold-

Post if they let you,
but don’t share your bits,
And why aren’t you buying
All our gold plated bull-

Shit where you’re told
Now pay double your rent
Working 2,3 jobs
And I need every-

“Stop drop roll, just say no, go to school
If you work hard you’ll make it (they’ll believe it, those fools)
And we’ll burn up the planet while hoarding the cheese,
And blame it on them when they can’t buy CDs”

Mic check, mic check, 1-2, 1-2!
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do!
Mic check, mic check 1-2-3!
So many lies I can finally see!

I got to have toys,
I grew up having fun,
Now I’m as old as my parents
And I’m scared of cop’s guns

(Apparently bus rides are when I write lyrics)

Mic check, mic check, 1-2, 1-2!
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do!
Mic check, mic check 1-2-3!
So many lies I can finally see!

Orwell was loud the year I was born,
Valdez and Gulf 1 were the start of the storm.
Bush 1 and his boss, the clown from LA,
The homeless with AIDS, just because they were gay.

CW: Trans envy. 

Looking at all the glowups is hurting my eyes. Stuff keeps leaking out of them. I should head to the repair bay and have them checked out.

CW: XKCD, implied nudity 

Something that isn't mentioned in today's XKCD is the massive amounts of stick-figure dong that is now currently present while the guy argues with himself.

Breakthrough with being creative! (CW: Youtube link) 

Yeah. Yeah GreasePencil was the
missing piece for me. Here's a link to the video that made me gasp with joy.

Struggling with being creative. 

So. Yeah. I posted this, and then i found out about GreasePencil in Blender.

Fucking game changer.

Possibly.

Need to not be at work and go home so I can try this out for myself.

Dammit Capitalism, why you gotta get in the way of me growing as a person?

Struggling with being creative. 

I _KNOW_ how I want this thing to look.
I can see it so fucking clearly.
I just don’t know how to bring it forth.

I want to learn.
I have to make time.

I can’t ask to be supported while I struggle and learn, because I’m not already capable.

Starting from 0 is so, so daunting.

So much inertial to overcome.
Wish I could give up.
But visions won’t leave me alone.

I am Kelsey, a trans PoC.
I am Kelsey, a trans neon pink husky.
I am KLCY, an uploaded digital consciousness.
I am AXIOS, a giant husky robot made from smaller giant husky robots.
I am Aura, Shayne, Stratus, Karol, Megan, Mal, Ashleigh, Aneko, Libby, Takato, Kai, Damien, and Rachel.

I've been so many people, trying to be wanted. It'd be nice to finally settle on something.

Just trans things, boobs 

I don't want to be part of society today. I just want to poke at my chest and watch the jiggle physics happen.

@Alistor You know, I'd almost by that, but weren't you allowed to be a woman in the SW: KOTR games? I mean, granted those came out before The Mouse bought Lucasfilm, so things might've changed.

And even so, that's still a bullshit reason.

Gaming, industrial heat-lamp warmed take, (CW: caps get used) 

Jedi Fallen Order was doing everything right so far as I've seen,

But I can't play as a woman.

COME ON! ITS 20-fucking-19 FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

This shouldn't even be a thing anymore. 2 different models, silent protagonist. Fallout 3 figured this out back in 2008.

This is not fucking hard. Its just a decision by now. A "stupid-ass decision"

And yeah, i might be the slowest husky to this. Sorry.

Discourse discourse 

@mawr Discourse?

Daytona Speedway is overrrated.

Potential gen:LOCK spoilers 

@orrery I do to! But since all Caiban has is a read-only personality sliver, rather than a fully digitized mind, he might not have the creativity to generate and work on new things. It’s probably gonna be Cammie working with Migas and the RTASA scientists like Henry and Welles’s ex. But caliban does carry all of Weller’s notes, so they’ve got lots of potential avenues to explore.

Potential gen:LOCK spoilers 

@orrery Fair point, so far, the only given reason for the limited candidate pool is that since gL tech is so raw, its band and range of compatability hasn't been expanded yet. And the time it needs to refine the tech to increase that pool isn't available since work cycles were reallocated into weaponizing the tech asap since the Vanguard were looking for a decisive edge quickly (remember the 6 month projection?)

Potential gen:LOCK spoilers 

@orrery The specifics of the "Weller Test"? Yeah, that would be dang awesome to see. I presume Weller really got into Shadowrun at a young age, got frustrated he wasn't going to get his awesome technological empath solution handed to him and decided to make his own.

Probably worked backwards from the end goal: *pointing at his head* "I want all that..." *points to giant robot* "in there." and then just cranked on experiments until he found the right solutions.
