@soft_chomps@glitch.social Ahhh, this whole thread is neat cuz I'm strongly thinking of doing an isometric stealthy game with elevations n stuff too~

I just need to finally overcome the learning curve of "actually sitting down and learning Unity" to do it. =_=

housing, boosts welcome 

my partner and I are getting evicted soon.

would there happen to be anyone in the fediverse who knows someone in sydney who'd be willing to rent a room to 2 transfeminine nonbinary people?

I've got an idea for a short animation loop I wanna do today, but gotta get stressy-dull stuff done first. *pout*

Please back my Kickstarter "Find the people who keeps putting alarms in cars and to make them stop doing this thing"

Thanks for your support! :thumbs_up_clw_v1:​

dissociation stuff, sensory overload 

@zinnia I would not wish to assume; but from reading the part on the "noisy spaces -> dissociation attack" pattern (saaame), it may or may not bear fruit to look into Autistic Spectrum related stuff.

I wouldn't wanna armchair dx, and hope this doesn't come across that way! I just experience this pattern a lot, and dissociate frequently in response to sensory overload. ._.

dissociation stuff 

@zinnia This was really wild to read about, I've dissociated since about the same age, though in some same ways (things seeming 2D/fake/behind glass, not caring, emotional numbness), some different ways (plural 🎊).

As a trans person who still dissociates to heck, this is definitely a good resource to know about, thankyou! :thumbsup_hmn_b1:​

Nerding About Cetaceans & Music Theory 

[4-6 notes] = subphrase
[subphrase + subphrase] = phrase
[phrase repeated for 4~mins] = theme
[n themes] = song

(aiui from a very brief skim of the topic)

I wonder how much inversion & recursion there is in terms of of subphrases/phrases/themes..

The structure is rlly reminding me of reading about how Bach put phrases together & toyed with them to compose music in highly structured & mathematical ways. 🤔

That's a cool link to think about.

Nerding About Cetaceans 

[Humpback songs]

"A whale will typically repeat the same phrase over and over for two to four minutes. This is known as a theme. A collection of themes is known as a song. The whale will repeat the same song, which last up to 30 or so minutes, over and over again over the course of hours or even days."

Confirmed: Phillip Glass is a whale who has learnt to walk on land and blend in with the humanfolk

Nerding About Cetaceans 

Beluga whales can change the shape of their melon at will, and chitter and tweet so much that they were called "sea canaries" by early sailors, because their calls could be heard through the hulls of ships

No one knows how baleen whales (humpbacks, blues, etc) even communicate because they don't have melons or vocal chords. (there's some theories, but nothing conclusive)

Also baleen whales have two seperate jawbones, one on either side

Cetaceans are so weirddd <3

(but srsly people drawing prehistoric marine mammals with NO BLUBBER at all is a riot, look some up sometime)

*starts on long-winded rant about how the "cool, spiky, aggressive-lookin' " factor relates to the lack of soft bodyparts in 90% of paleoart, and the subsequent cultural depictions of dinosaurs- gets dragged offstage by a crooked staff*

When you look at the skulls of predatory cetaceans they basically look like really Metal birds
