You show up for your first day at Copyright-Free Magic School. As you're going through orientation, you're informed that all new students get a school-assigned familiar that they are responsible for housing and maintaining. The staff member assures you that your assigned familiar is appropriately chosen and reflects you in some way.

Spin this to find out yours. (Remember, you are responsible for maintaining this familiar in your dorm room.)

Okay i just realized

Seiza is a sitting position

Is your name Kagayaku and you’re sitting in the seiza position?

Actually, the meaning of "seiza" depends on which kanji is used to write it. In the case of my username, the intended word is 星座 which means "constellation." "Kagayaku" is a verb meaning "to shine." So in short, my username is Japanese for "shining constellation."

The way I came up with it was just... "oh, here's this social media site I want to use. I want a username I haven't had before. Hmmm.... what's something shiny?" And that was pretty much it. If I had known I would still be using it over a decade later, I might have put more thought into it, but I'm bad at coming up with names.

I did find out at one point that my username is also the title of a song, but it was after I started using it that I found that out.

Happy birthday!

Thank you!

Today marks the 18th anniversary of my 18th birthday. I’ve officially been an adult for half of my life.

(At least in the legal sense. I’m not sure how much of an “adult” I really was when I was 18.)

Friendly reminder that Go Fund Me does not send funds to Gaza, and all of the inbox messages asking for donations to that area are a scam.

How is Binx on this fine Hallow’s Een?

He’s as cute as ever

[kagayakuseiza]

you ever want to post controversial and divisive things but then you just decide to leave it in your drafts to rot?

I crashed the Tumblr app on my phone with too much booping. And I’m still not stopping!

[kagayakuseiza]

It turned green! I must boop some more!

Ok not at all surprised that gen 8 won (or lost, rather). Also good to know that I wasn’t the only one who thought about voting for gen 1. I ultimately couldn’t because the rest of the franchise wouldn’t exist without gen 1, and it has a lot of childhood nostalgia for me, but honestly, it was close because it had some pretty bad mechanics that were fixed in gen 2. Gen 8 just… somehow lacked the spark that I felt while playing other generations.

Also it’s hilarious to me how almost nobody voted for gen 3. I’m old enough to remember the backlash over lack of backwards compatibility and removal of some of the gen 2 features when Ruby/Sapphire came out. 20 years ago this probably would have been the top answer.

Oh, and those who said gen 6 are wrong. That is all.

Ok, another worst in series poll.

Edit: forgot to add a “don’t play Pokémon/see results” button so I guess only vote if you’ve actually played Pokémon…

ok conversation on Discord made me curious and now I gotta make a poll:

[kagayakuseiza]

Booping on Tumblr is back!!! YESSSSSS!!!!!!

[kagayakuseiza]

“My opponent is soooo terrible because [ad hominem]!”

Tired of seeing political ads like this everywhere I look. I already mailed my ballot. Can these ads stop now? Please?
