I don't think I remembered to post this here earlier tonight. I ended up being a terribly productive person today. I helped Keet make jam, I got a brioche dough in the fridge, I made a pretty tasty stew for dinner, and I baked this little lovely number: cinnamon kugelhopf with orange caramel glaze and crushed toffee. https://awoo.space/media/dt0zPXhmEn19kChBoQo

@drwho They were incrediblefor my adolescent self. Playing them as an adult, they seem simplistic. But at fourteen, video games with moral codes that punished you for not following them were amazing.

@craigmaloney@octodon.social Research has shown that saturating your consciousness with names will make you remember them, and memory counts for more than positive associations. They don't care if you think they're a dumpster fire. They care you think of them.

@Leucrotta @LexYeen @green Trying to get there.

I'm less brittle now than I was then. I'm in a better place to discuss things. I still feel some lingering guilt that I couldn't save Allie, and some sense that my own skills aren't enough to help people truly in need. I'm sorry.

I made this, as a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there can be hope. It if helps you, please take it. Take anything that helps you get to tomorrow. Please don't go.

The only warning we had was two weeks prior. She came out of her room in the middle of some kind of altered state and told us she was thinking of killing herself. Nobody knew how close to the edge she was. We didn't think she was serious.

For years, my only response to suicide talk was "don't discuss it around me; if I think you're serious, I will call 911 and you can hate me from the hospital." I had already failed one friend. I was too afraid to fail again.

Please remember, everyone's response to tragedy will be different.

My roommate Allie Groothof committed suicide in my living room in 2006 at the very tail end of The Bad. It took me two days to decide that a locked door and not having seen her was enough to justify risking violating her privacy to check on her. The cops who responded to the 911 call wanted to know why the character she'd been RPing online wore the same bracelet she had on.

@squirrel Thank you.

Those who are remembered will live forever.

Can someone explain the meaning of "x-clacks-overhead" and the use of GNU instead of RIP without assuming I'm asking in bad faith?

@cute_weeds I always have to throw in for Carnivore Planet and Crossed Wires here.

@itsnero "Until it isn't" is usually "until I have to do anything involving the code instead of the interface."

@Ulfra_Wolfe@witches.town @irisjaycomics I still remark upon mine as though they're somehow a _discovery_. Like, the titfairy visited in the night and left a deposit in exchange for a quarter under the pillow.
