@PaulFerence It's so good. So damn good.

I really love both companies so much.

@Xkeeper i, too, grew up with more sierra games than lucasarts games

gentle reminder for awoo folks:

i follow back if you're local, but if that makes you uncomfortable let me know and i'll unfollow!

@ThatDamnCat @Nystre We've gotten a lot of folks coming in lately and I feel like our space isn't one that is good to have random signups.

We will be reevaluating how we allow folks to sign up and producing a new way to allow people in once we find something that works for us.

In the meanwhile if you have a friend you'd like to bring in, please DM me with their email and desired username and I'll help them out!

@intherain yea- as long as it's clear it's being used as a joke (and not something intended to make you think it's serious as a joke), then yeah, totally

Crom's religious trauma (christianity) 

@lizardsquid ironically, the only church i will ever go to is in my hometown, because the pastor is very liberal and accepting of gay and trans people

she is a good Lutheran minister who was one of the first people from my home town I trusted with my sexual identity, and even she hasn't been successful in getting me to be comfortable with trying to go to church again

Crom's religious trauma (christianity) 

here's what i mean by my religious trauma:

I got involved with a bible study/church in college early on

they became my primary group of friends i spent all my time with

@beatrix@mastodon.social that is a really important feature that is missing imo

i personally have advocated against quote toots like how quote tweets work on twitter, but i think if the CW feature embeds the post like a quote toot underneath the "show more" option i think that would be a good compromise at this point

my recommendation is to grab a link to the post and put it behind a CW

1000% serious reply 

@georgeqgreg@mastodon.social beautiful

@daggertooth@monsterpit.net yea click-throughs for the account are broken, but the status click-throughs for the actual status link will still resolve properly

also, some folks don't like the use of the CW system for jokes

I think it's okay, personally, as long as it's obvious that it's a buildup to a joke
