I'm kinda a slow-rotating hyperfixator as music taste goes, so a snapshot of what I've been listening to on repeat would change, but I do tend to fixate.

Anyway, do this or don't, it's up to you, but the ppl who come to mind as ppl I'm curious about are @incomprehensiblelentils @explosionshark @saturns-queen @mogatrat @themself @thydungeongal and @a-lil-bit-oooo-jessica

I've amassed more crap 💦 tv bros mags, famitsu dvd, demo disk (jpn), movie bonus cd, ps2 y1/y2 soundtrack, another live action article, kurohyou stuff, tokyo mystery circus charm, and gaiden things (guide, cleaning cloth, and an ad board lol)

[faunandfloraas]

hii do you collect albums/pocas/magazines/etc? and if you do, what + for which group(s)?

(ik the obv answer is skz but tbh i don’t collect for one of my ult groups bc i just don’t like the album packaging and think it doesn’t display well so you never know </3)

Kinda? Not religiously but I did get a few of the older albums + rockstar for christmas/my bday last/this year so I have the photocards from them! I think I have about 6 of the albums? So I have those photocards and things :) as for magazines I have Chan's NYLON mag because I did really love it lol

I was going to get Seungmin's elle mag but it sold out </3 I have a bad affection for print media so it's probably good those 2 don't get many shoots lol

I haven't actually bought any other groups albums but the next time I get albums from Korea (prices work out WAY cheaper than to buy them anywhere in aus lol) I'm def gonna pick up nmixx's new album and maybe btob's lil keychain one... maybe... as a bday present in a few months lol But outside kpop as a teenager I was super obsessed with the all girl teenage rock band The Runaways and I have a bunch of their Japanese magazines that are a3 sized, vinyl including live recording bootlegs and picture disks and stuff- pretty much the only things I ever got for my bday between ages 13 and 18 were old runaways/Joan jett memorabilia- it was all cheap at the time but after the movie about them came out the prices went up so I guess teenage me got in at the right time.

As for photocards I have only bought one off ebay....

Him.... bc he's funny... but I do very much have a couple blonde seungmullet PC's in my watch list lol Won't buy em nc they're too expensive but they're in there. Also his boom fluffy hat ATE one's call to me so bad but they're too spensie as well </3 so yeah that's about the crux of it :)

My 2012 Sorcerer Hunters collection post got a note so I have taken re-stock over a decade later.

I need the hat. A few more mini disks. More vhs because that's been the bottom of the priority list for obvious reasons. A few more dream figures if they ever show up. And some of the manga in case there's more content that never made it to the tanks like with that one issue. Maybe some mags? Probably a couple other posters- most of the posters not seen here. Other cells if they ever become avilable. That like dozen ova settei i'm missing.

Yeah hat and i guess a few mini disks.

Thanks Discotek for the sd bluray

‘Bout to head out to get some posts into the ground further into the ranch for speed trainin’. Gonna leave breakfast to Mara while Dashiela’s gettin’ ready for the day. Maya’s gonna handle vocal trainin’ for Bubbles this evenin, since I couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket.

Hope yall like omelets ‘n bacon!

Seems like it ain’t just Kabu that picked up on some potential. Bruce has been gettin’ antsy; he gets excited ‘round folks who could give him a good challenge eventually.

Gotta dig out the steel disks and get Piezo ready for some mag-fetch trainin’ later too…

Busy day, that.

yeah, people can’t delete their accounts however there’s ways to have the app even if the bill gets passed. In my friends country (India) TikTok is banned, but she found a way to download it on her phone. We will see a huge increase in piracy the more the government does shit like this. If we can’t be more private, we’ll just pirate.

Same as when Texas banned porn and then there was an increase in piracy and people buying porn mags and disks. Not to mention how people are getting more and more fed up with streaming services and also how video game companies don’t want people to own the games that they PAY FOR and how vinyls, DVDs, and CDs are becoming more popular within the music industry. And with all of these “at home activities” (video games, watching TV, etc) becoming more expensive and going to fast food places, even though expensive, is becoming cheaper than buying healthy groceries, people are starting to yearn for 3rd spaces again. The mall where I work has seen an uptick in the amount of people coming, lots of kids and teens. Feels like a blast to the past.

Imagine that this brings a revival of places like Blockbuster lol.

It’s always morally correct to pirate

YOOOOO did anyone ever get this tape back in the late 90s?

In the late 90s the only place you could see game footage that wasn't a commercial or game kiosk was demo disks

In the early 2000s there would be websites that could host the trailers for games, but they would take like 20 minutes to load and be low res as hell

You wanted the humble demo disk:

pop that shit into your ps1 and enjoy game trailers and playable demos!

almost every month you could probably get up to 3 or four of these just by buying gaming mags

And obvioulsy if you needed info on how to play a game, you could get it from those magazines or by buying a big fat strategy guide

But this fucking tape? This had full-ish playthroughs of games, it was a strategy guide you could fucking watch. This a HUGE deal back then

so it doesn't seem to say it anywhere on the box, but I clearly remember it saying somewhere that this was meant to the first of a series of these video guides, and I remember seeing them for sale in just about every video game store I walked into

obviously that didn't happen, sales were probably low af

BUT GUESS WHAT:

heres that whole fucking video for you to enjoy, in all its edgy cynical late 90s goodness!

I love Rodimus and you've now given me AU IDW Rodimus concept that I've been gnawing over all night.

To start with, Rodimus is not doing good at all but is clinging to the fact that he, at least, didn't destroy one of his last friendships and sacrifice Drift. That's important. He makes Drift and Ultra Magnus co-captains, orders Magnus not to persecute Brainstorm and Chromedome since they were acting under his and Prowl's orders and they'd lost enough, and has a tearful goodbye privately with Drift before he is sent off.

The actual departure in the docking bay is closed off to High Command only with Ratchet declining to show. Rodimus is certain he hates him as he hasn't looked at him since the reveal. Drift, though, hugs him, and Ultra Magnus awkwardly hesitates before speaking, giving him a "gift" and looking nervous about it before Rodimus is officially exiled. Drift gives Ultra Magnus a considering look at that and the way he shakes Rodimus's hand and says very softly but stiffly, "Farewell Captain." Which makes Rodimus tear up a bit, but he keeps it in.

Rodimus gives himself a good cry once he's actually in the shuttle and watching the LL drift away. It takes him awhile to open Ultra Magnus's gift. Inside is a copy of the Autobot Code, which makes him laugh a little, a personal note from Ultra Magnus, and a strange round disk thing that has no button or access point it has a small light that is off in the center and round circles of copper silver and gold.

Ultra Magnus's note says his disappointed (no surprise but still ouch) but believes in Rodimus and did consider him a friend (that is actually nice to hear) and thinks he needs guidance to find himself (Rodimus laughs at that because he's been lost since Nyon) and finally a strangely ominous message about Ultra Magnus's own mentor (interesting given how little Magnus talks about personal things) and how much he believes Rodimus would benefit from his guidance.

Finally he signs the note and Rodimus sees it originally said "Second in Command of the Lost Light" and then "Captain" and "Co-captain" before they were all crossed out and then it was written "Your Friend".

He still signed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accords though.

It makes Rodimus sniffly again because it feels like a better good bye than he deserves and he folds it up and keeps it in his subspace. Finally he goes to sleep setting the ship on autopilot for the nearest Cybertronian friendly settlement, hand resting over where his Autobrand was.

While he rests the disk that he'd used some wiring and a twine to turn into a necklace of sorts starts beeping and then a ship silently appears nearby and starts to pull Rodimus in. He wakes up suddenly and violently to Star Saber hovering over him and injecting something in him that makes him drift off.

Sdgfss thank i make a lot if rapid fire ideas like tgis sometimes

Yeppp yep! Arguably, several mecha would suggest this would've been the correct choice of action (we know Optimus did, there was the vote...), and this feels so sad considering the planning he put into this departure

oh roddie i don't think ratty hates you, ohh.

Oh no Mags oh no the foreshadowing™️™️

Oh fuck Star Saber

22 for ask game!

Hello Hello Cosmic!

22. Your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores

Oh where do I even begin. To break this down, I will make points and explain why I like it and feel like it's overlooked. (Oh it's Inscryption related obviously/lh)

-The Photographer is P03's favorite Uberbot. It's never brought up directly in the game, but have you ever noticed how P03 doesn't compliment any of the other Uberbots besides the Photographer? He calls the Photographer cool. Meanwhile with the others he either insults them or doesn't really say anything about them at all. Implies that he dislikes the Archivist because she and her librarians messy and disorganized, says "That's quite enough of that" sometimes when defeating the Unfinished Boss, and literally all of the dialoge before and after the G0lly fight. That bot is picking favorites.

Small little bit and personal interpretation of the reasoning is that P03 still. has. feelings. for. Leshy. Despite everything that happened between them, from the divorce and Act 1, P03 still loves Leshy in a bittersweet sense of being able to reminisce happy memories together but also the painful knowledge that it'll never happen again. Just some food for thought.

-Royal makes fun of his cause of death. In the game, Royal has multiple lines where he makes fun of his cause of death, scurvy. A quick excerpt from the Inscryption wiki has a bit of dialoge from Royal backing this up, reading, "Yar, life didn't give me lemons... So I died.". It's actually quite endearing and funny. But have I ever seen anyone talk about it? NOPE. Talk about Royal more please or I'll do it myself, this is a threat <3/lh

-Magnificus out right in the ending of Inscryption is like, 'My goo mage is already gone, how do you feel about that Luke? Just eject the fucking disk.' Which is guilt trip 101. This is the same guy who painted off Goobert in his own painting as a gift to Magnificus, but why he says that at the end is interesting. Perhaps he knew that Luke, and by extension us, are attached to Goobert and therefore would feel bad and turn off the game to save whatever is left. This could be read as Magnificus being more of a douche than he already is, but I think it's a bit more complicated than that.

I think this is a part of him not being able to accept death and therefore isn't ready to accept his fate. We all know that he can see the future and how his fate is already sealed, but living with it? Bearing the knowledge that he's going to die and there's nothing he or Luke can do but let it happen? Mags ain't ready to die. He even says so himself as the world disappears around him. But he ultimately disappears just like his Goo mage.

Yeah you can probably tell I think about this a lot-/lh
