Apparently I'm a masochist because I *will* be streaming more Polyarmory on Twitch tomorrow. 😔

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · 6d

Polyarmory is a hostile play environment and I feel personally attacked. Ten thumbs up. No, those aren't all mine. Don't worry about it.

They/them. I play things poorly and swear about it. I'm not here to be skilled; I'm here to have fun. Schedule may not always be accurate so turn on notifications to catch my shenanigans.

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · 6d

I haven't finished yet (and neither have my bunker buddies). There's so much pain ahead. I'd thank you but I'm really going through it after *gestures broadly at everything*.

So you just, uh, you just posted this everywhere huh? Cool, cool, cool. Listen, if anyone needs me, I'll be going into Witness Protection. To protect myself from being witnessed.

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · 21d

I will eventually get it done. Eventually. Right now I'm very devoted to seeing how many star stickers I can get for my pants. Because I'm the best at mail and I deserve stars.

So what I'm concluding from this is that instead of a normal name like Clifford, he should have been named Grief Dadman or Father Mourningstar or something for you to identify him more easily.

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · 21d

In my defense, there are a lot of fall-off-able cliffs in Death Stranding so if I'd called him Cliff it could have led to the geological conundrum of the century.

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · 22d

"Clifford? More like SADS Mikkelsen amirite???" —me to myself while playing Death Stranding alone in a dark room at 2am.

Me: Hey government, how long does it usually take for you to process those forms I sent?

Them: We cannot give you a timeline.

Me: Can't... but you're a government organization. Are we talking weeks, months, years...?

Them: Your forms will be processed in the order they were received.

-_-

It's almost like you worked a whole bunch of extra hours or something... 🤔

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Sep 1

I am. I did. I'm doing it. My body just went "lol bet" and I had to deal with it. <3

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Sep 1

So I never gave y'all a top surgery update. Remember when I said I had no complications? Joke's on me: I ended up with a severe infection. I'm on the (slow) mend now but I was flirting with sepsis for a minute there. My immune system rocks. I'll be well again soon, but ugh augh ough. ✌️

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Sep 1

I DISAGREE. FURTHERMORE...

"Oh no, our soulless corporation has discovered that having generic buildings that are easy to repurpose is more profitable than trying to convince a bank it should have a red Pizza Hut roof! My CULTURE." I'm not on the side of corporations but goddamn. It's dire out there.

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Sep 1

Today a friend informed me that the local porters are not other players, but generic NPCs. I have been trying to make friends with absolutely NOBODY this entire time.

Hideo Kojima, I can't believe you've done this.

D:

4/4

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Sep 1

Sure, everyone has blood bags, I thought, but how many people would make the effort to go get a shiny new pair of chiral boots and give them to a stranger? Maybe THIS TIME they'd want to be my friend because I gave them something really nice. 3/4

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Sep 1

For my entire playthrough, I've been trying to make friends with them. If a local porter gave me a gift, I offered one back. They rarely took my gifts and it disappointed me, but I concluded that I needed to offer better stuff. 2/4

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Sep 1

@hideokojimaen.bsky.kojimaproductions.jp

Doing my first playthrough of Death Stranding 1. I thought the local porters were other players on their own maps. Assumed they were anonymized and you only ever saw a few of them to give life to the game while maintaining the emptiness of the world. 1/4

At a glance I thought it was Angel Ham. I'm not sure which is worse, frankly. Godspeed.

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Aug 7

Update: surgery went well. No signs of complications so far. Rumour has it my plants are still alive and well back home too.

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Aug 4

I know I rarely post to Bsky but heads-up: I'll be absent from Twitch and Discord for a while. I've got my long-awaited chest masculinisation surgery this week. Flying out tomorrow. I'll try to update once I'm in post-op recovery. Until then, stay out of trouble. Don't do anything I wouldn't do. ;)

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Aug 4

Happy birthday!

KatBat @katbatmadethat.bsky.social · Aug 4

Thank you. I'm hoping my plants will survive. All the person taking care of my place has to do is ignore them entirely. They thrive on neglect. 🤞
