I generally do not play with randos ever, but in this game and genshin it’s actually kind of the best. We don’t actually speak to one another, but we make little heart gestures at each other and little hugs, and then give each other actual gift boxes JESUS MY HEART

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

Jiabber, our dumb barrel boy, decided to slip out of the apartment tonight and came home SCREAMING and with his tail about five sizes too big for him 🥴

He got rescued by the handyman thank goodness!!! He’s home safe and settled

Text chain:
Daisy: WHY DOES THIS GAME HAVE SO MANY SPIDERS
Friend: the world may never know
Daisy: it’s ludicrous. Diabolical.
Friend: i wish i could just send you resources so you wouldn’t have to go on a spider hunt, but at least you can’t say you haven’t suffered for your art
Daisy: I’ve almost caught every single single one of them in one day
Friend: ur crazy for that and i admire it

Also the storyline in the current update is…absolutely batshit. I can’t even *begin* to explain it. It’s such a ride lmfao

Aiden Scary(berry)hun 🍓 @astraww.bsky.social · 2d

for as cutesy and hyperfeminine as a game like nikki is, it sure does have a disturbing amount of spiders.

i have to catch 270 spiders for these damn lanterns. and i have almost all of them in one day. and there are more that just exist in the game beyond that. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY SPIDERS

Aiden Scary(berry)hun 🍓 @astraww.bsky.social · 4d

Unfortunately I have fallen into the gâcha game long-haul. For whatever reason I can’t purchase all my lanterns I want to place from the menu, I have to craft each of them. 121 of one type, and 90 of the other 🥴

I’ll see you in 5 years
