I also just don't like the 'Looking for Moots' culture around intro posts, which is why I haven't bothered making one. Interacting and posting about stuff I'm interested in (*when I'm able to do so*) is more reasonable to me than just barfing out a list and expecting everyone to take my word for it.
In lieu of an intro post for pinned, I will tack this up instead. There are many different ways to find out about me; whether you follow what I do on this particular internet outpost is up to you.

this feels like an illegal building technique but pylons outside of the AIC area can power machinery inside of it, which allows me to tag this upper left filling machine
anyways infra-station all product challenge done

Okay doing this with Level 4 Refugee Camp is hella cursed, I have to split and desaturate my steel and sandleaf output to ensure there's even enough space for all of the machines required for all outputs *at all.*
Also there's a 256 facility limit. Ain't no way I'm saturating this. But I did it.

Despite playing Endfield almost nonstop this week I still haven't reached the second region because I'm having too much fun grappling with the limitations of the early game factory options and cramming in lines for every outpost to produce their own tradeables without the main base. So satisfying.

Whenever I collect any Aurylene in Endfield I mentally play the Power Moon jingle because some of these really do feel like collect-a-thon objectives and I low key miss Mario Odyssey.

We jest but even the actual English CV's aren't safe anymore! Arknights EN voices are decent, but Kazemaru's DRIVES ME UP THE [profane] WALL because she says it correctly on recruitment, but the line we hear more often is mispronounced.
Voice director did her dirty or something man, I dunno... 🤷♂️

its crazy how common it is for youtubers to do the whole "aughh i'm gonna mispronounce this!!" deal for japanese names when its actually quite easy. The names are really straightforward. There is one way to pronounce each of these buddy

I need the guy who did the OSHA compliant Portal video to do one on the UWST facilities in Endfield. I wanna know just how much of the industrial aesthetic is true to standard versus artistic rendition.

In what is probably my most ambitious video to date, I dropped everything to make something at the crossroads of my interests in protein science, pharmaceutical development, and Arknights. Discover why this protein was named after one of the most important characters in the game.

I love bsky, I love that I can just post images and direct links and scroll down and see it and repost it later, etc I legitimately think unchronological algorithmic feeds as the norm are rotting people's brains. I want to see direct links so I can just click and buy the thing I want to without bs

Every time I see a comment on a YouTube video saying "great algorithm pull" or something like that I am compelled to remind people that the subscriptions feed exists and that self-curation and direct sharing with friends does way more for a creator than an algorithm ever could.

Post #Endfield launch stream first impressions:
- HG still does worldbuilding/artistry super well.
- HG still has pacing/UX issues.
- This game is worse-off for being a gacha/live-service, but I don't mind.
- Wondering what kind of players HG wants to retain, esp. with amount of tutorials in game.

Oh dear. The Endfield servers are up 2 hours early.
Y'know what man, I'm good. I need some food first before I go live. Willing to bet the servers may tumble over themselves anyway.

Trying to sleep, but the rush of the initial spike in the view graph always comes with emotions. Wonder, for the potential of making it big. Dread, for not all attention is good. Accomplishment, for having done something.
I hope tomorrow's a good day.
