Laur (sometimes Nova Starfall) ☄️

Adult, disabled, asexual, gender-whatever

Former streamer/Youtuber. I do a lot of fanfic and roleplaying. Mod Quoll @ Angara Death Zone

I like cartoons, video games, gamedev, tabletop, music composition, singing, space, shiny rocks, and sparkly stuff.

A star cluster is shown inside a large nebula of many-coloured gas and dust. The material forms dark ridges and peaks of gas and dust surrounding the cluster, lit on the inner side, while layers of diffuse, translucent clouds blanket over them. Around and within the gas, a huge number of distant galaxies can be seen, some quite large, as well as a few stars nearer to us which are very large and bright.

I mean, in the end, it IS just speed typing, but it's got good bones, they could make something out of it. There's a demo right now, which is what I'm playing

This is where I'd start raving about how much money I spend on Nintendo Virtual Console!

IF WE HAD ONE!

my therapist: sometimes you simply have to experience an emotion instead of thinking about it
me, nodding sagely: and then it goes away
therapist: well not necessarily
me, shaking my head furiously: no, I don't like that

Me: I just don't understand why I can't just out-think my anxiety and emotions and simply react and respond in the most ideal way every single time and never feel bad

Sonic Frontiers makes Knuckles something of an ancient history buff who will also just straight up punch the ruins he's investigating and I think that's fantastic

Not me trying to work out a sensible timeline like a logic puzzle for an AU I will probably never write

Why do the things we love hurt us so?

(Referring to the voids, not the ragweed. Fuck ragweed. I don't even know what a ragweed is and it hates me.)

It's hard being a horsegirl when all the other racers are whales. Which you think would make them worse at foot racing, but here we are

Give it to me you dried out bitch

A low quality meme of a round yellow emoji face like 😐 but with big bloodshot eyes attached to pale outstretched arms with grabby hands chasing a chemical diagram of dopamine saying "pspspsps" with the text "your brain is supposed to release a motivating chemical called dopamine. ADHD people after they complete a task:"

YEAH EXACTLY! There was an RP I was in a test server for where people could choose from the start to have their character remember canon events (not the natives wouldn't trust/believe them) or believe they'd lived their whole lives in the setting. It never started and I'm sad about it bc I had Plans

I like those reincarnation plots where the character can eventually remember the life they were transposed from and have to reconcile it with the life they've made

I want to at least try it but I also want them to stop throwing 5000 stupid ads at me especially when every single one of them has at least one noise that sets off my misophonia

Update: my controller actually started constantly disconnecting by itself despite having it for less than a year. I couldn't be sure if it was the controller or the wire, and after getting a new controller, I can safely say it was the wire. But I needed one with analog triggers anyway

Ayyy @roncli.com, this seems like something you might wanna plug for your followers (I might grab it myself just to see if I can, well, see it)

Actually hang on why DID Sega release two Apple Arcade exclusives for different franchises within the span of six months that both involved a purple-pastel dream world overseen by a sheep?

Laur / Nova @novalaurelie.bsky.social · 11d

I take a melatonin. I fall asleep and have ten dreams with five of them happening at once. I wake up and it's only been two hours. Why.

Really, truly amazing that OpenAI wants us to believe that they are worth a trillion dollars but also they are so desperate for revenue that they created an infinite SlopTok app that opens them up to a billion lawsuits just so that they can maybe someday make it even worse by filling it with ads.
