@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh yeah, i briefly saw that when i switched to social to message someone who wasn't federated here

that's a recent thing?

@noiob same! i still use my original pebble time for all kinds of neat things--from notifications for everything, to my pomodoro technique tracking

i even have tasker set up on it to basically let me script it to do anything!

i would have totally jumped at an update

@noiob @bunnylyn and honestly, it was also the best case scenario since fitbit had decided to maintain the pebble servers until someone from the original dev team managed to create a new version of it independent from the company: rebble

they ever allowed the pebble app to be developed more so that it supported switching servers

that was super-nice and completely unexpected of them!

@noctilucent wow, that's a pretty substantial raise!

if it's as tech-related as i'm assuming it is, maybe you can see what their policy on telecommuting is? because managing to nab that eventually would possibly mitigate both of your worries

if not, another way to consider it is: how much would you be willing to pay to stay in your current situation? 40% of your wage?

it's tricky to judge how much your current situation is worth to you, but reframing can help fear not effect the end result..!

@noiob oh! i hate this footgun

i was worried this was gonna get a lot larger than this, because sai has a not-so-nice habit of randomly failing when you make a file too big

i...might be done!

i should draw more things with backgrounds because i am really not good at it

more progress!

now i'm experimenting with colors, and trying my hardest to make a compelling background

there's still a lot i should do, but it's pretty hard when i have no idea what i'm doing

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz phone numbers? *way* too many people. also house numbers are pretty common

but oh gosh, i never even considered discord numbers D:

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz 7 and 9 are pretty good

@kyra thank you..! (and good luck!)

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh! so that's what's happening to my team

sometimes my entire team gets just wiped and locked down, and then proceed to walk, single file, into a mob of enemies for seemingly the rest of the match

i just thought i was getting really unlucky with my teammates

actually, that's why i don't luna very much anymore, because it relies on having turf inked to be effective, and that has some pretty sketchy reliability

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz i don't pay attention to brands at all--i just like the way the gear looks together!

it was kinda hard to get abilities to match up with my aesthetic

as for chunks, i scrubbed a LOT
and also ran out of money a lot

it takes time to get 30 of anything, but once you have that, that's basically one set of perfect gear in the bank

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz my shoes were a complete fluke, and my hat was the result of lots of scrubbing and lots of swim speed up drinks

basically, if you can get two of the ability you want on gear, you can fill the last slot in with 30 chunks for that ability

the trick to getting drink tickets is usually salmon run, but you can also buy them in single player if you level up every weapon and sub to it's max

@monorail it's true that's kinda tricky initially, but that's actually pretty attainable too!

i mean, i actually have quite a few trans friends, and they often don't have to say anything for others to recognize their gender

so, i know it's rough right now, but you can totally do that too..!

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz nice!

my luna has won me a lot of games, because you can get really aggressive with it--and flanking with ninja squid is extremely effective

the brella basically means i can super jump to anywhere, and it takes out shooters really nicely 1v1. (but buckets destroy it!)

the classic squiffer is probably the most aggro sniper, and it does zoning really well

i also sometimes like the carbon roller

i am really bad with buckets though

@monorail you know what? i think you are! ^^

if that's what you identify with, that's valid, and that's what you are..!

i know dysphoria can totally suck, but you don't need to gatekeep yourself--because you're valid too!
