We came out as plural!
Our "official" sys name is Clarity.

There's two "sides" to us.

💖 Rin (he/any) is demimasculine, often represented by red-haired avatars. I'm usually fronting here.
💙 Mari (she/her) is transfeminine, often represented by black-haired avatars.

A cup of decaf iced latte. As shown on the receipt under the cup, it's for Mari.

Another day, another instance of straight people around us being unnecessarily proby about someone else's romantic life because they have decided relationship gossip is their primary form of entertainment

Literally never ever reply to a random person to tell them that a game they're hype for is "honestly quite uninteresting" or similar.

If I (worker) pick up the phone and you keep cutting into my "%BUSINESS_NAME%, this is %MYNAME%, how can I help you?" standard greeting, you're getting the bare minimum amount of respect and service from me.

Please never send us any AI-generated memes, especially videos. Just don't. I don't care if it's to laugh at the quality of them, we do not want to see them.

Azure Striker Gunvolt is one of those games where playing for score is too spicy but playing for survival feels so sauceless

arguably one of the worst things about car dependent suburban sprawl is that it's a core reason (along with brick & mortar favored zoning laws and racism and classism and-) that the US doesn't have a street food culture like elsewhere in the world. i want more local street food delicacies damn it.

Artists who aren't considerate of people using bsky in public: "Boo my unlabeled porn art got labeled that means it won't get as much exposure anymore"

💙 You've heard of "neglect taking care of baby to play WoW", now get ready for "skip school/work/friend's wedding/whatever to T10 this event"

💙 For real though I think idol game tiering events (in ProSeka, Bandori, etc) are predatory and exploitative as fuck, they encourage people to sacrifice other commitments and their own health (for lack of sleeping or eating) just to get a "I got top 10/3rd/2nd/1st" title, it's just as evil as gacha.
