I feel like pauseable-real-time is very underappreciated. it’s not just very satisfying to people like me, but it’s also a helpful accessibility tool for those with slow reaction times or anyone who needs time to think. I feel like it’s mostly associated with strategy games but I’d love to see more genres add it - especially tower defense games like BTD6 (which I’ve been obsessed with lately. it’s a Very Good Game)
to be honest I would probably overuse it in BTD6 but it would also help me manage the chaos of some of the later free play rounds. plus I could pause when I feel like things are going badly and take a moment to think about how to respond, which would actually help me engage even more deeply with the game’s systems (like abilities, which I mostly don’t touch)
they should invent HRT that gives you a chitinous exoskeleton

random thought but I wonder if different localizations of GTA V change the number that you dial to get emergency services
in the US it’s 911 but I wonder if E.G. the German localization changes it to 112, or if it stays as 911 since the game is set in the US
one day god lord jesus was bored
so he made humans to suck his cock for eternity. and they all took turns sucking him. and if they didn’t he put them in his torture basement. and everything was good and holy
except god lord jesus decided that everyone was bad, and he could never forgive them. so he torture-murdered himself as a burnt offering to himself so he could forgive them
and now we can all suck his cock forever or else we go in the torture basement because of how much he loves us amen
an artist can draw line art which is 100% sfw and fine
and then draw one small line and it instantly becomes nsfw and banned and dangerous to children
such power
I want to write a highly serious story that quotes Garfield comics with the same reverent gravitas that’s usually reserved for Romantic poetry or stanzas from Greek epics
not just because it would be funny but also to make a point: all art is equal whether you like it or not. there is absolutely nothing that elevates Lord Byron above Seth MacFarlane or whoever wrote The Simpsons
Pygmalion was definitely a shallow fuckboy. there is no other explanation
how do you fall in love with a statue. it is physically incapable of having a personality. it is literally only booba. ass n tity is the whole of its existence
madly in love with his own goonslop. shameful.
all the game-of-the-year titles this year are games that I can’t play :/ I hope next year they’ll all be like:
The vast majority of queer discourse can be answered by “man i think it depends” and that’s something I think a lot of queer people need to get through their heads sometimes (this isn’t about anything specific/recent just some various thoughts I’ve had from seeing discourse)
Huh!
"Introverts fared best when their interactions with the team were task oriented and their interactions with supervisors were relational. Extraverts showed the opposite relationship: they reported higher productivity and lower stress when their interactions with supervisors were task-oriented and their interactions with the team were relational"

it is okay to just unfollow someone if you don't want them on your timeline anymore for any or literally just no reason at all. You can still be friends with them. You do not need to dislike them.
it is just how you curate your timeline on here.
I think I may be the only trans girl in the universe to not like at least one JRPG
I know for 100% certain, though, that I’m the only trans girl to not like Celeste
(both of these are probably sampling bias lol but it really feels like it)
shadowbringers has some very aesthetic spots
(pic has simulated eye contact)
I get a little weirded out by stuff like Zenless Zone Zero where everyone is dressed like a porn star and poses like one too, but the only thing they’re allowed to do with those bodies is sexily try to kill each other

this is a super interesting video about (one of the reasons) why AAA studios are generally so creatively bankrupt
My latest song obsession is Banshee - "Lamb who screams". Defiant but not super aggressive, haunting and I love the way the sound is layered. I can't fully describe it, but the vibes are right and I think portions of the fedi would like it.

but I keep screaming"
