my hands are shaking with rage and grief. i shouldn't have to do this. the edited text on this image should not exist. this should not still be happening in 2025

a panel from my entry in Samidoon. it is sepia tone of a palestinan family walking. the caption reads "in 2024, the images from inside Gaza echo my family's storie from Palestine. the walk away from our tattered homes looks the same as 50 years ago." the 2024 is crossed out witht 2025 written next to it. my hands are shaking with rage and grief as i type

How come major film studios keep being like Jared Leto may have allegations, but at least he looks weird, stars in box office bombs, and is not a good actor

depends on genre
shortish arcade game is ~25 mins
shortish adventure game ~10 hours
shortish rpg like 20-30 hrs

i would consider 10-20 average but probably shortish by modern overstuffed standards

One of my OCD things is that pretty much anything I don't agree with online I start arguing with in my head no matter what and sometimes when I see something dumb enough it means I'm basically locked in intellectual stalemate and I start feeling physical pain

I'm sorry to report to all the Karinaheads that her ground throw has a 15f tech window (avg is 10f) and leaves her anywhere from -17 to -23 on tech (avg is safe to mildly plus)

sienna @burntsienna.bsky.social · 4d

vick discovered that torami air throw is always punishable on tech which means i can now begin downplaying
