Something I have been thinking about. I can relate with others who have body dysphoria as I feel I have a sense of that myself. However mine centres around the fact that I can’t chose my own shape, I am attracted to the idea of transformation because I wish I could transform into anything I want.

Not the actual quote as it’s a paraphrasing. The actual quote is in the video below. Still a good answer.

Reporter: Why didn’t Trump win the Nobel Peace Prize?

Nobel committee chair: We only give the award to people of courage and integrity.

We truly are in the dumbest timeline.

Yup. He keeps touting regime change as one of his justifications for war. So they gave it to the political opposition leader in Venezuela who is trying to just that in a peaceful democratic manner. This seems 100% a decision made to spite Trump.

Mel_Fluff @melfluff.bsky.social · 1d

It’s can’t wait to see Trumps reaction.

Mel_Fluff @melfluff.bsky.social · 1d

Well this is probably the best outcome. Not only did they not give the prize to Trump, but they instead gave it to the political opposition leader of a country that Trump is legitimately trying to go to war with.

It’s like they actually wanted to rub it in.

Yup.

I think there is some premature celebration happening here given how the last cease fire went. I would be surprised if Bibi ends up not finishing off the genocide the moment the hostages are released.

They are looking at doing this here in Canada and I am hoping that this helps them think twice about it. The more you guys can really phone home how much of a shit show it’s become the better. Get this shit out of everywhere.

I keep saying that our only saving grace here is that Trump is really stupid and in no way is capable of pulling off what he is trying to do.

WSJ: President Trump believed his Truth Social post demanding prosecutions of James Comey and other political foes was a private message to his attorney general, and "and was surprised to learn it was public."

I’m sorry to break it to you but Antifa’s founders were killed by the Nazi’s after the Reichstag fire. You are about 92 years late. Not sure how you reanimated the corpse of a dead pre-war German woman though.

On that note, strange that you seem to want to go after Antifa like the Nazi’s did… hmm?

If Danielle Smith is applauding Carney’s progress it’s all but certain to fail. I mean why the hell are we negotiating with a man who just up and decided the last deal he made with Canada was stupid and fell back on it. There can be no progress when Trump is concerned.

Shin Megami Tensei 3 was me putting my big boy pants on after getting a taste of the SMT franchise with Persona 3. I’ve become a big fan of the series. I like how SMT feels like what dark souls would be like as an RPG. It’s challenging and every battle is a puzzle and it stays fresh.

Mel_Fluff @melfluff.bsky.social · 2d

I really loved Xenogears so I was excited for Xenosaga. I thought Kosmos was a cool character, I even have a figurine of her. I ended up getting the entire series and played through all of them. Each game was amazing and I loved how they changed up the battle mechanics in each one.

Mel_Fluff @melfluff.bsky.social · 2d

I bought a Dreamcast after it was discontinued because it was cheap and friends in college always had good things to say about it. Grandia 2 is one of the games I got with it and was blown away by it. Amazing soundtrack and characters. The combat system is also fun.

Mel_Fluff @melfluff.bsky.social · 2d

Suikoden 2 was a game that I was first introduced to thanks to the glowing review from www.icybrian.com

I finally managed to snag a copy. Although not fully complete as the rest of the manual was ripped off of its cover as it was acquired from a Blockbuster video. Best game in the series.
