I didnt hate it, but I didnt like it very much. It only came to a head to me in the last 20% of the game with a lot of enemy arenas with that pregnant enemy that is a giant damage sponge. I dont remember the other games doing stuff like that, but my memory is very bad lol

Make it till you fake it.

A page from Girlfriend Limited to 7 Days by Amazaki Suika. It's three panels of a girl smiling happily and looking cute, while the narration goes "I don't love her. I don't love her. I don't love her."

I've tried therapy multiple times but it's never really worked out for me. The best thing to come out of therapy is my therapist telling me my coping mechanisms are shockingly rock solid for someone with such obvious undiagnosed depression and anxiety

Also her going "holy shit" to some stories

Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 1d

Sometimes I wish I did drugs cause I imagine I'd chill out REAL good.

But since I have actual PTSD involving drug stuff, the idea is kinda comical to me. I wonder how my brain would react. Screaming AND getting chill at the same time?? Maybe I'd explode.

Wish I knew how to relax lol

I'm burned out, anxious, and depressed. I need a day to myself so I'm not streaming, I'm listening to Chrono Trigger music, doing some cross stitch, and playing Victoria 3. And my brain is still screaming like "well maybe we can do work later then, sure, you idiot"

I am so tired.

Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 2d

I'm sick of reading the word "censorship"

There are rules to society so we can function. Thats not censorship. And hell, there were already rules. You weren't allowed to be bigoted or racist before. Why was THAT not censorship, in your little worldview? Cause you were used to it??

Dog, I have to do this every single day. Can't you give me a fortune cookie that says "actually it'll be chill for a bit"?

A fortune cookie that says "modify your thinking to adapt to new situations"

Have a good vaycay!

Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 3d

It was. I won't say his name in case he like, name searches or something, but everyone defended him by either going "free speech" or "He's not actually a nazi you just call everyone you hate that" when he like, two months earlier, literally went "we need to reconsider the Jewish question".

Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 3d

After some talk, head staff overturned the rule. Some of the more "free speech" oriented people left, and after a lot more turmoil and loud screaming, it settled down into the queer space it is now. We beat the path of the nazi bar.

I hope RA can get there, too.

This reminds me of GDQ a lot.

Way back when, before I was staff, they made an announcement that a literal actual nazi was not banned, because they didnt break any rules at a GDQ. There was a big stink, like this, and it pretty much caused a civil war in the community.

I can find lesbians on my phone, it can't be ALL bad.

Panels from chapter 9 of "Girlfriend Limited to 7 Days" by Amazaki Suika. A girl is scrolling her phone and searching #Girlswholikegirls and finds a social media page of a lesbian who's posting her picture and going "OS/Kanto/L Accepting applications for my GF <3"

The girl scrolling her phone goes "truly, we live in an age of convenience

Forgive me if I'm misremembering, but I'm pretty sure that years ago, Scotland passed a law that basically would fix this, and allowed self id for being trans

But it was vetoed by the government in London through an old obscure loophole.

I wonder if this is how people who actually liked Pepe felt about seeing the frog be co-opted by nazis

The waffle post didn't deserve this. It was about a real phenomenon that happens on social media that we can and should make fun of. It is NOT about whatever the fuck Jay thinks its about.

This entire thread explains one of the REAL reasons I'm so pissed about this whole Bluesky CEO Waffles mess.

I liked that meme. That was a good meme. The waffles tweet from years ago was a *good tweet*, and they are DRASTICALLY misusing it and turning it into a freakin' dogwhistle for their ingroup

mcc @dryad.technology · 4d

So I'd like to show a demonstration of what this "waffles" thing is. Here's a conversation between *this site's* CEO, some random guy, and the cofounder of "Tangled", a GitHub clone built on top of Bluesky's protocol.

Please take a moment to really think, about the shape of this thoughtlessness.

Jay.bsky.team:

Harassing the mods into banning someone has never worked. And harassing people in general has never changed their mind.

Steven:

Then you should probably stop trolling your user base.

But people can justify anything they want to believe in really easily, huh?

Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 4d

Censorship is when a private citizen does not want their product they created with their hard work to be associated with something they don't like.

I think we know this person's opinions on the whole "that lady should have been allowed to not make cakes for gay weddings" thing or Charlie Kirk shit.

As scary as the RAM is for Pokemon I would drop EVERYTHING to take a stand with this

Lizstar @lizstar.bsky.social · 5d

Who wants to make a quick and dirty Gameboy homebrew called "We should kill all the nazis in the US Government right now and their sycophantic followers"? I'll make an RA set for it. It'd be allowed, apparently.
