as for the characters? they may be generic, but they aren't based on anything!

i just wanted to draw in a TDM style, a thing that i like quite a lot

TDM is basically a japanese mascot style kemono with an extremely large head, often very stumpy legs, and a body that's tapered enough that it's basically a triangle

jirachi and the lake trio from pokemon are other examples of TDM

it's the pico-8 philosophy for limiting my ambitions when i draw--because i wanna draw more! and i would love if the pressure to do that was minimized somewhat

drawing on something like this forces me to not overinvest my energy into each thing i draw--a bad habit i have

it's acid-techno, composed procedurally! it's even does little techno progressions if you listen to it for a bit~

might fuck around and turn the "emotionally heavy" spaces i'm a steward of into opt-in instead of opt-out zones

that's how consent works, and these spaces really should have been that way from the start

it has some real "come and get it" energy in how i see the phrase used in ironic contexts all the time, but it's also impossible to pinpoint any examples of it because of its sheer popularity outside of them

except, in this case, the only people who use the phrase ironically seem to almost exclusively be the people it's parodying

it's like a little self-aware joke where the only people who realize it exists are the ones telling it

is there anything else like that?

obsessed with the phrase "we've come a long way since pac-man"

it's like a game reviewer meme, but if you search it up, the only results are ones using it in earnest

it's gonna be cool when i get used to plan 9 because it will mean i have even more extraordinarily-niche muscle memory i can't use anywhere else to add to my collection
