Seeing @fake-married-my-dead-fiance make a parallel between fandom attitude to ML of Head Over Heels (as compared to the ghost inhabiting his body) and Tushan Jing in LYF - I genuinely wonder what is fandom beef with quiet, gentle men. I’ve even seen those complaints with AJTL and the ML of that one is a literal assassin - but he’s a gently spoken one and not as fun bastardy as the Marquis. Or the complaints about ML of Olive and that dude diffuses bombs for a living!
I remember the same attitude to the ML of MJTY or Asule in NEF or ML of Love in Between or if we go way back Tae Ha in Chuno and I just don’t get it. Some of these men CAN clear a platoon by themselves and none of them are stupid or weak - they are just quiet and kind. It’s the same type different flavor blowback that traditional acting FLs get too which I don’t get either.
But it’s even weirder for HoH because it’s not even a period narrative! It’s a modern teen!

#i thought about it but high school? no#but if you include junior high we might have a deal#there are things from the summer between junior high and high school#that must be undone#if i was going to suffer through high school again#like i would like to never interact with high school boyfriend ever#save myself some major problems#but on the whole being that young sucks so i don't think i'd go for it#polls

How to spot signs and symptoms of Breast Cancer
#you will not 'know when you feel it' btw#there are many changes your body can go through#several of which manifest as lumpy bits#my family is prone to large benign lumps#which when you don't know is pretty nerve wracking#yeah#guess whose mother didn't tell until after she'd already had a panic attack and a doctor visit?#anyways#my doctor said worrisome lumps will feel like peas#(i assume the uncooked firm kind)#when in doubt talk to a doctor of course#(and maybe ignore your mother if she's anything like mine)#health and wellness

this 'being really tired after work' thing is really getting in the way of this 'pursuing my artistic hopes and dreams' thing has anyone else noticed this

It feels like half the emails and chats I've had to audit this month have been for GMC Yukon shocks. Please stop going offroad in your oversized vanity trucks! They're not made for that! Anyone who tells you otherwise is LYING.
#quality assurance life#i hate yukon denali drivers like i hate mercedes drivers#i think they're dumb as shit for buying such a shitty expensive car with overcomplicated part selection#but at least they're not mean to my customer service reps out of the gate so they're better than bmw drivers

I think the one great thing FF XVI is doing is that Clive is a such an edgelord with his voice, background, and main plot but he's still a dork that can't help but be nice to everyone he meets.
#clive is the friend who helps you move#to practically everyone he ever meets#final fantasy xvi#ff16#final fantasy

Nooo i just saw a TikTok of someone calling their mom a hoarder cause she has a CD collection and going "i can play these faster on an app" and telling her to throw them away BITE BITE BITE BITE KILL KILL KILL KILL if someone said that to me i would rip them apart with my teeth i would burn them alive the violence that would take place would be unimaginable i would be an unleashed demon hungry for blood and meat. unimaginable horrors. death and destruction. killing. maiming. no one could survive that. it would be a nuclear apocalypse. leave the fucking CDs alone
#digital archiving#how to#computer stuff#the thought of how long this will take me is daunting#but hopefully i get around to it before i lose some of the unusual stuff

okay, yes, I know that comma isn't supposed to be there but I want the reader to take a breath! I want a pause! Stop trying to correct me, I'm trying to control the flow of reading
#writing#grammar#english is such a bullshit language#with a long and storied history of grammar being made up#so emotional support commas are just as valid as any other#(outside like school essays or journalism which do have rules from the boss/teacher)#(but other rules? made up)

Breaking my hiatus to bring everyone’s attention to the fact that Cornwall is now attempting to be officially recognised as a nation within the United Kingdom.
Kernow has its own language, culture, history and identity. The language was forcibly removed by the English until the last monolingual speaker died in 1777–her name was Dolly Pentreath. It has existed as a kingdom before England had ever existed. Historically, Cornwall has been a place exploited for minerals and resources and labour. Currently, it still is. There are now ghost towns where once thriving fishing villages stood (Mousehole, Pentreath’s home, was one of these). Cornwall is now a playground for second home owners who drive up house and rent prices and drive out permanent residents and workers. Local businesses go out of business and struggle to stay afloat when the influx of tourists come who only purchase from supermarkets, putting nothing into the local economy. There is a long, long and often very gruesome and bloody history behind this—leaders of rebellions executed all the way into 1715.
If you are in the UK, and sign the petition to get this to a debate in Parliament.
Can you spare 60 seconds to sign

It took five hours to do about ten seconds of cutscene. I perhaps need to plan better. In my defense, getting timing and sound effects right does take a long time even for more assiduous designers. And I also fixed some old code so I can update it more easily, instead of having to update all 12 instances of this obstacle, I moved everything to a common event and IT WORKS!
I made a small breakthrough on the Sequel to Ruby Nectar that Noone Asked For that I put aside a while ago, so I am working on a game this weekend! I kept fussing with the opening maps because I wasn't quite sure how I was going to pull off the first cutscenes and tutorials and stuff, and the early maps have an interactive component that's noticeably more complex than the later ones which was causing issues. Because the late-game maps should be more complex, right? So having the puzzles early and the simple maps late was just really poor planning.
But I got an idea and it's working out pretty well so far. This is extra exciting because it's been a while since I was able to focus on RPGMaker stuff, and this game has been wasting away in my drafts since last year. Good thing I wasn't on a deadline, I guess.
Of course, this is right after I bought a bunch of craft supplies for other things that still need homes, and I was halfway through a shelf reorganization, so there's physical things all over the place, but those should be okay for a few hours. Or days. Right?
