The Sims 4 Lovestruck 💚 Villa Verde - Speed Build

[gender-trash]

like the grand innovation of ros is that actually now 1) you don't have to rewrite your MESSAGING FRAMEWORK from scratch every time and you get a bunch of debug tools for free and 2) theres a bunch of prototype grade components you can probably plug together to get a demo if you know what you're doing

it's great but it's not like. whatever's going on in webservices world. and the webservices people and vcs who are used to it HATE this!!! i interned for a really crappy startup once whose entire concept was "hey, why is robotics not like webservices? clearly we need to reimplement ros but worse and dockerized lol what's hard realtime" and it so clearly had only survived as long as it had because it was The Baby of this VC guy who tried to sell me on javascript like it was an abusive boyfriend i should give ~another chance~, and right after i left they hired a new ceo and pivoted to having an actual product. theres ALLLL these guys coming from webservices land who want to pretend really hard that a malfunctioning robot is exactly as disposable as a malfunctioning docker container, and that gluing together preexisting robotics components (largely research-grade code developed on a completely different robot from whatever your product is) is exactly as easy as gluing together APIs, and it ends so badly for them every time. it's adorable.

relatedly my dad has this theory, which i think has a lot of predictive power, about how a company Makes It Big doing one thing (SAAS, or online ads, or B2B software, or like. making computer chips) and then that product cycle cadence/approach is baked into the company culture so hard that they completely flub it when they try to make something that necessitates a different approach. intel fucking sucks at making software because they inevitably drop support after 18 months because when you make a chip you design it and you send it to the fab and then it's out of your hands and there's no real way to "fix bugs" (you just maintain an errata sheet and add more tests so you can catch the bugs in the next chip you design). webservices companies who do continuous deployment or bust are often really really bad at coping with the sales and maintenance cycles of Big Businesses that a lot of b2b software is for. and software people in full generality have a ridiculously hard time with the concept that you can't exactly continuously deploy improved suspension for your robot chassis, because you have to actually crack the robot open on a workbench and swap it out.

in microservices world one of the baked-in cultural attitudes is "cattle not pets" -- your herd of docker containers is like a herd of cattle; when one of them malfunctions you take it out back and shoot it and spin up a new one, you don't waste energy on failure recovery. when you bring this approach to robotics land it inevitably fails! you have spent 4 or 5 figures minimum on a robot, that thing's a fucking pet! and also, when it malfunctions, it's flailing around potentially doing damage out here in the real world, which is... generally considered to be bad. there have to be layers and layers and layers of safety systems and fallbacks and failure recovery logic and everything needs to be designed to fail into a state that won't maim anyone, or it inevitably will fail, and maim someone. even just "if something goes wrong stop moving immediately" has some complexity to it.

webservices people are also big on "eventual consistency" and almost nothing in robotics is physically safe to do on an eventual consistency basis or else your robot will eventually (but consistently!) destroy itself and/or anything around it. the closer you get to low level control the more important it is to have hard timing guarantees and that's generally sort of antithetical to the philosophy that hardware should be as abstracted away as possible

Sims 4 House Build is Perfect for That Winter Christmas Spirit

This gorgeous winter Sims 4 house build is the perfect inspiration for your Christmas adventures in the life sim. ‘Tis the season, after all – the cold is settling in, mince pies are in the shops, and Mariah Carey is rousing from her annual slumber to herald the coming of Santa Claus season. What better way to get in a cosy Christmas mood, then, than by building your own winter lodge in the EA Maxis building game? The Sims 4 snowy winter lodge is a gorgeous Sims 4 build from creator Fab Flubs, who has crafted a gorgeous wooden home among tall trees in a crisp white winter wonderland. It’s a very picturesque scene, the sort of place you might imagine yourself renting while on a getaway Scandinavian vacation, with plenty of room to bring the whole family and settle in. The outdoor area offers some frosty benches, a well that probably isn’t much use at this time of year, and several tool racks and log stacks – the ones out in the open smartly covered in a fresh dusting of snowflakes, while those tucked under the balcony and stairs shelter more from the elements. There’s also a fire pit, and a driveway left clear of snow to suggest the former presence of a parked vehicle. The Sims 4 house build - inside of the wooden winter lodge from Fab Flubs, with cosy seating around a roaring log fireMaking your way inside gives way to a wonderfully compact layout of seating and dining areas, complete with roaring log fire and multicoloured mittens dangling from the walls. It’s the sort of build that leaves me simultaneously eager to fire up The Sims 4 for myself and start building, and in a sort of paralysis knowing that I’ll never quite manage something as pretty and neatly organised as this for myself. Thankfully for those of us with a little less craft of our own, Flubs has made the winter house available on The Sims Resource. As if that weren’t enough, those of you looking to learn a little bit more about what goes into making a place like this can watch a timelapse of Fab Flubs building and decorating the whole thing. At a rather impressive 25 minutes sped up, we can only begin to marvel at how long the full build time clocked in at. If nothing else, it’s incredibly mesmerising to watch a master go to work, seeing the whole thing come to life in Flubs’s talented hands. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HT-mTCNFCs4 Rather astonishingly, this build requires no Sims 4 CC or mods – it’s all done in the regular game, built in the world of Mt. Komorebi that was introduced as part of The Sims 4 expansion pack Snowy Escape. Comments on the video suggest that the build is so stunning they wish they could visit it in real life – we’d certainly have to agree! If you fancy giving a winter build a shot, you can now play The Sims 4 for free. While you might not need custom content for this build, there’s certainly plenty that the best Sims 4 CC can add to your next design. You may also want to try out Sims modding, in which case the best Sims 4 mods is a great place to start. Just be wary of an animal aging Sims 4 bug that’s been causing unexpected tragedy for some players. Read the full article

Roger live in Newcastle

He!!! was!!! so!!! happy!!! when he came out and launched into Strange Frontier and that crowd just sang it right back to him. Even for someone at his level there must always be that wonder of how the crowd are going to react and it was so lovely to see him get that warm reaction for one of his solo songs.

It was a really, really great show with a really well thought out set list - but also a set list that was Roger having fun and playing the songs he wanted to play, whether they mean something special to him or he just really enjoys playing them, and that gave the whole thing a special quality: he was getting a lot of this so we did too. He rocked, he made the music swing, he sang beautiful slow songs, it was really great. The band was kick ass and he directed them but also gave them space to make the music a bit their own as well.

For a 72-year-old guy he really gave his all for the set. He and Spike both took a break while the rest of the band did a really cool rendition of Rock It (Prime Jive), but he was back up there pretty quickly. His voice was really great - he absolutely nailed some of the hard rock and some of the quieter moments. There were a couple of flubs but hey, it’s the first night of a tour. Live isn’t perfect, but Roger and those fab musicians were pretty bloody brilliant. I double dare him to throw the Clapping Song in on the last night of the tour though. With guest spot from Brian to play pat-a-cake with Roger to the instructions.

I can now say I’ve seen Roger throw his tambourine in the air and catch it, throw his tambourine in the air and miss it, try to pull the mike off the stand in a smooth rock move but instead hit himself with the mic stand and smile at himself, do that thing where he gets all up in the guitarist’s business, conduct the band so that they play at the right tempo... it was a masterclass of the Best Bits of Roger Solo Live.

Also a special shout out to the set lighting for Man On Fire, which was *exactly* the same colour as the video lighting, and let me enjoy the thought for a second that he was going to re-enact it on stage.

This was my first live gig after two years and it was so wonderful to be surrounded by music again. When you listen to videos on your computer or to records you don’t get that sense of the music being all around you and going through you and it was just amazing. And that’s the effect Roger wants. He didn’t do a lot of drumming but it was a revelation to be right in front of him while he was doing it and so focused on getting this sound which is so precise and so tuneful and at the same time so BIG and all-encompassing. It’s not primeval, it’s very musical, but it was totally intoxicating. It just thrills me to see him doing it, having been possessed by this music since he first heard Rock Around the Clock as a tiny child, and still out there living the dream.

Did I mention that he!!! was!!! so!!! happy!!! to be playing live?

I have OPINIONS

If Game Changers say we like something, we’re “being fake” and “afraid to lose our title”. If we say we don’t like something, we’re “being ungrateful” and “shouldn’t be allowed to represent the company”.

Whatever about all that, I have opinions about this anniversary business and tbh my tongue hurts from biting it. So what the hell, have my opinions that literally no one asked for 🤷‍♀️

Let’s get one thing straight first, I don’t blame the Sims Team for any of this. We all know the Sims Team has a budget to work from that EA give them, and we all know that budget is FAR lower than any of EA’s other franchises. So I’m guessing what we got is exactly what the budget allowed for, which is just sad.

I don’t hate the hot tub, it’s a cool object with some nice swatches, but it’s an object we already have. It’s literally just one of the other hot tubs with a roof over it, which as Fab Flubs proved, can be done already without that “new” hot tub. There’s been a disturbing habit from the Sims Team lately of recycling objects for new packs, but to do this for something that’s supposed to be a thank you to the community that’s supported them for so long?! Not okay. And if they were going to give us a hot tub anyway, why didn’t they make it a heart-shaped hot tub for nostalgia, but this is all besides the point.

I really just want to know who approved this! Who was sitting in a meeting and going “A hot tub we’ve already used but for base game and with a roof and some lights? Nailed it. They’ll love it.” Were they high?! Or did they just forget completely and got to the day before the anniversary and had to scramble to come up with something? Who thought it would be a good idea to take a hero object from a previous pack and make it base game?

If you don’t know what a hero object is, it’s the object in a pack that the team generally spend the most time on, it’s the one object they know people want the most and will buy the pack just for that one item. For example the murphy bed from Tiny Living, the washers/dryers from Laundry Day, the photo studio from Moschino, the climbing wall from Fitness Stuff, the bowling lane from Bowling Night, etc etc. Think about it, how many people would have bought Perfect Patio if it didn’t have the hot tub? I would have, but I’m stupid when it comes to buying ALL packs, that’s well established lol Don’t get me wrong, it’s really cool that those that haven’t bought the pack can now use hot tubs, but for those that bought the pack specifically for that hero object, it’s a slap in the face.

Second, and this is my biggest issue with this whole thing, IT’S THEIR 20TH ANNIVERSARY. There are so many people that are like “you don’t give other people gifts on your birthday, do you?” No I don’t, but I’m not a multi-billion dollar gaming company in an industry where one franchise reaching 20 years is a MASSIVE deal! Most franchises don’t last past 5 years and those that do make a huge deal about every year they make it to after that.

Take Blizzard for example, World of Warcraft just made it to 15 years and they went big. Not only did their anniversary celebration last from November to January, but they opened up old raids for higher level players, which had higher drop rates for some long sought after mounts during the celebration and when completed gave you an achievement that awarded you with a guaranteed mount that looks like Deathwing, a raid boss from one of the first expansions (hello nostalgia!), and they opened up an old battleground that when completed could earn you two other new mounts. They also sent out celebration packages to every single character’s mailbox (not just every player, but every single character... each player is allowed 50 characters per account btw) that contained a 15% increased xp and rep gain token that lasted for the duration of the anniversary celebration AND a cute little battle pet that again, was inspired by another old raid boss, Nefarian. And on top of all of that, you were also able to purchase goodies from previous anniversary celebrations from an NPC for those two months of the celebration.

I dunno about you, but to me that’s a crazy amount of nostalgia and goodies, and Blizzard always celebrate their anniversaries in this kind of style, even the ones that aren’t “major” milestones.

So why isn’t EA making a big deal about the Sims 20th anniversary? In fact, literally everyone else is making more of a fuss about it than EA! There have been dozens of interviews with Game Changers and devs alike. The Fader, Playstation, MTV News, Polygon, EB Games, NVIDIA, Youtube Gaming, Discord, IGN, Need For Speed Spain, and hell even The Onion tweeted about it. Thousands of members of the community have shared their sweet nostalgic stories about how long they’ve been playing The Sims and what the games have meant to them.

And EA gives us a giveaway, a patch with a couple simlish songs, only 3 minor bug fixes and a recycled hot tub, a graphic that seems to be full of random numbers that mean nothing, and more ways to give them our money (new expensive merch that doesn’t even really scream “it’s our birthday!”). I’m sorry but where’s the nostalgia? Where’s the real thanks to the community that has supported them for 20 years? It’s just so disappointing, and yet, not surprising at all. It’s become normal to see something like this happen and think “Well, did we really expect anything different from them?”, which when you think about it, just seems so wrong.

This franchise has meant so much to so many of us, and it’s sad that we’ve been made to lower our expectations to the point where when something like this happens, we’re not even surprised anymore. We shouldn’t think that way about a game that we’ve grown up with, supported, and loved for 20 years.

Fukuoka Fab Love release event

Show format:  Live recording (gekijo corner, gacha questions, interview about FAB LOVE), mini-live, high touch

Set List:  FAB LOVE, 日常ホライズン, Happy Life

Highlights:

Gekijo corner:  Kiiyan and e-ZUKA had to take turns playing a) a company employee two hours late and b) the buchou who needed to deal with the employee. e-ZUKA’s excuse? He was stuck on the toilet. Kiiyan’s way of dealing with him? “Shouganai ne….”

When asked what they did in Fukuoka that day, Kiiyan pointed out that it POURED and so they couldn’t go out. He kept asking if we’d reached tsuyu (rainy season yet), but nope. Just the “ame otoko” at work!

Kiiyan joked about the two filtered pics he posted to Twitter recently (nee-san, musuko versions of himself), saying that the little boy was an “ame musuko”  named Shinji

Kiiyan also kept calling Pierrot Dancin’ “Kuroko Dancin’,” which cracked e-zuka up

Kiiyan was wearing the most adorable Oscar the Grouch t-shirt that said “Don’t Kill my Vibe” on the back

Kiiyan missed his lead-in on Happy Life. Then flubbed some lyrics … and then e-ZUKA almost forgot to stop playing for the acapella part

e-ZUKA joked he’d be painting this tour (a la YORKE, I assume)

Kiiyan again expressed his affection for Fukuoka

When they came back out for the acoustic live, an attractive guy on the 2nd floor (free viewing area) shouted KISHOW, much to everyone’s amusement. He called for e-ZUKA later, who obliged by asking “Dare?” in a girly voice

Kiiyan’s voice was amazing, especially those high notes on FAB LOVE

Who Won the Beatles Album?: Yellow Submarine

Like Let It Be (1970), Yellow Submarine (1969) was a semi-consensual release of leftover and outgrown songs, the Beatles having closed the door (of perception?) on their psychedelic phase following Brian Epstein’s death in 1967. The first side of the record is Beatles originals; the back side is George Martin’s orchestral movie score. Within Side A, two of the six songs had been previously released: “Yellow Submarine” (on 1966’s Revolver) and “All You Need is Love” (as a single in 1967). The Fab Four was contractually obligated to dredge up just four unreleased songs. Here’s the breakdown.

1) “Yellow Submarine” - John

2) “Only A Northern Song” - George

3) “All Together Now” - Paul

4) “Hey Bulldog” - John

5) “It’s All Too Much” - George

6) “All You Need Is Love” - John

So who wins the album? 

George.

Like the mystic Beatle, Yellow Submarine was a late bloomer, underappreciated and largely ignored. Though George’s introduction of Eastern religion and instrumentation helped define the band’s psychedelic phase, Revolver and Sgt Pepper (1967) gave him the short end of the stick. The other Beatles vetoed “Only A Northern Song” for Pepper, meaning Harrison’s sole contribution was “Within You Without You,” a song sped up in post-production to trim Harrison’s presence by another minute and a half. Harrison featured more prominently on Revolver with “Love You To,” “I Want To Tell You,” and one of rock’s greatest album openers (and George’s only opener in the Beatles discography), “Taxman”. However, John and Paul once again outpaced the introverted Beatle-- Paul even stole the lead guitarist’s role on “Taxman”, performing the solo after George couldn’t play it fast enough.

Yellow Submarine is different. For the first and only time in the Beatles’ discography, George shares an even third of the credit with John and Paul, who were unenthused about the project and reeling from Epstein’s death. “All Together Now,” like many McCartney songs, is catchy fluff; even McCartney branded his lone contribution “a throwaway.” Two of John’s three contributions had been previously released: “Yellow Submarine” and “All You Need Is Love,” while both iconic songs, already had their heyday. However, “Hey Bulldog” was in its prime. The only Yellow Submarine song recorded after Epstein’s death, it carries an intoxicating blend of Sgt Pepper psychedelia and White Album (1968) return-to-roots mentality. The blazing guitars of “Taxman” and Sgt Pepper’s title tracks collide with the jaunty piano-slamming of “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da” and “Sexy Sadie”. The song’s climactic howling is half “Good Morning Good Morning” barnyard samples and half “Yer Blues” shrieks, the sound of the Beatles’ rose-tinted mystery tour giving way to austere self-examination.

Though “All You Need Is Love” is Side A’s closing song and the ostensible climax of the Yellow Submarine movie, “It’s All Too Much” eclipses John’s sappy singalong with its own acid-driven revelation. Ringo admitted that George’s song “really sets the mood of the movie [Yellow Submarine],” providing the moment in the final abstract sequence when “the music and the movie really gel.” “Too Much” starts with one of psychedelia’s signature sounds, the wail of guitar feedback, until the Hammond organ enters with the suggestion of a religious epiphany. For the next six minutes, these two instruments contribute a droning “Aum” previously reserved for the tabla and sitar, and the result is a Westernized meditation on consciousness within the Summer of Love. George’s dry, literal lyricism finds a home in psychedelic rock that it would struggle to find again. (For example, 1976’s dragging “See Yourself” informs the listener that “it’s easier to see the books upon the shelf / than to see yourself.”) That lyrical bluntness becomes an anchor in a sea of alien noises and blaring feedback. “Too Much” reaches transcendental heights in its lyrical austerity, simulating how LSD endows menial details with life-changing emotion. After four minutes of hallucinogenic reverie, Harrison’s non-sequitur “With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue,” borrowed from a Merseys song and repeated for emphasis, feels like nothing short of a revelation.

“Only A Northern Song” contains a similar transcendental austerity, this time with a fracture in the fourth wall. (Once again, Paul steals the lead instrument, but this time he’s purposely underperforming on trumpet, a half-developed skill from his teen years.) From the first line, the singer is addressing the listener. It’s a common narrative tool in pop songs like “I Want To Hold Your Hand” and “She Loves You”, but this time the singer and listener are exactly that: “If you’re listening to this song, / you [the listener] may think the chords are going wrong.” And Harrison’s right; the chords are dissonant, the instruments awry. But the same stanza assures us that “they’re not, / We just wrote them like that.” What is this narrator’s relationship to the music? How much agency does this band actually have over the sounds they produce? Does this person revel in dissonance, or are they as helpless to “repair” the song as the listener is? (Thanks to the limitations of analog technology, the Beatles were no strangers to unfixable mistakes: Listen for the previous take’s flubbed guitar solo in the background of “Can’t Buy Me Love”.)

Like the instrumentation, “Northern Song’s” disparate subject matters strengthen the song’s overall conflict. The track is a passive-aggressive jab at the band’s imbalanced partnership. George had stayed on John and Paul’s Northern Songs music label to selflessly grow the others’ payouts; John and Paul each owned 15% of Northern Song’s shares, while George owned a minuscule .8%. At the same time, the song title playfully references the boys’ childhoods in Liverpool, the “holy city” of Northern England. George’s contribution to the Fab Four’s nostalgic period remains conspicuously absent from the contest between Paul’s “Penny Lane” and John’s “Strawberry Fields Forever.” (“Penny Lane” leaves me cold, but I’d struggle to choose between “Strawberry Fields” and “Northern Song”.)

As with many of George’s best songs, “It’s All Too Much” and “Only A Northern Song” contain contradictions that a careless listener might confuse for underdeveloped songwriting; George Martin himself called “Northern Song” his least favorite of George’s catalog. But the conflict in George’s music-- Between the casual and the transcendent, the biting and the numbing, the enlightened and the apathetic, the music and its author-- is enough to salvage an otherwise unremarkable film soundtrack (think Magical Mystery Tour) and bring the movie itself to a triumphant, emotional climax.

Morning Musume NYC 2018, Saturday

Saturday was concert day, and I was determined to get on the railing. Since merch was sold at the con, the concert venue line wouldn't be split between merch and standing position, either. In the past, the line would be at the end of the block by 7AM, so we got to the building at 6AM, only to discover that people had still gotten there at 5AM. Thankfully, we were within the first 20 or so again. But, perhaps because it was shared concert, or because there had already been a lot of interaction with the girls the day before, there were shockingly few people who chose to camp the line. As always, camping an entire day for a concert is actually pretty fun, as everyone in line is there for the same reason, so there's little awkwardness in talking. As this was my third time for MM already, there were several people we knew from previous events, too. We interacted with the Japanese fans quite a bit. One of them was giving out A Gonna/Are You Happy CDs, as well as old member uchiwas. Importantly, the J-fen dished that while camping they airport, they noticed that Maria arrived from a flight from San Francisco, rather than with the rest of the group from Japan. The implication of this is a photobook shoot. One of my proudest accomplishments for this weekend was that I asked the Japanese fans if I could plug in my music player into their speaker, and then proceeded to play a bunch of mashups. It was hilarious seeing the reactions, as people further away in the line could also hear the music, and their surprise at every reveal and transition was great. I also had several people ask me to send them the links of where I found these mashups. I played around with the idea of also camping the stage door entrance to catch the guests entering the building for sound checks, but with no luck all morning, so I gave up. So, of course, as I did a jog around the building later to warm myself up, I caught Kitadani entering the building, hah. The entrance into the building was quite frustrating. They opened two doors, and both had both bag checks and metal detectors. So many people behind us got ahead because the bag checker for their door was more lax, and I also had to wreck my item organization in order to get all of the metal stuff out of my pockets (phone, music player, keys, etc.) Secondly, you were supposed to pick up your VIP badge before entering the venue, and they weren't taking it on faith that the ticket with the barcode was the real deal, so I had to dig through my email archive to find a record with the price paid on it, in order to get my badge, and the switch back to the ticket itself to scan into the concert hall. I definitely entered later than my place in the line had been. Again, thankfully, I still made it to the railing. We waited for an hour for the concert from that point, and the music playlist in the hall was all Lantis, no UFA. Boo. Was amusing when Country Roads came up once, though (as Kageyama had covered it once). I also discovered that VIP included a handshake-ish event, so I started actually thinking of what to say to the girls, unlike with the autograph session. It was funny, all of us MM fans were hoping that one of the collabs would be USA, while none of the anisong fans even knew what that was. One of them even though Da Pump was a Kpop band. The concert itself was fun. Most of VIP was MM fans, but there were just enough anisong fans to show how excited they were about the setlist from those artists. Us MM fans did our best to make every guest feel welcome, though. The concert ended up being between 3 and 4 hours. The other three guests performed about half an hour each, while MM got a full hour, though they did not perform last. There were also multiple collaboration songs between the guests. MM were great, of course. It was hilarious, one anisong fan said that she only vaguely knew MM through their Golden Age songs, and was completely bowled over at the new Kpopified version before her. A downside to this, though, is that few of MM's modern songs lend themselves to tradition lightstick patterns, so our movements during MM's set may have, ironically, been less organized than for the anisongs. But we made up for it in enthusiasm, singing along, and screaming our voices out at every opportunity. Abs watch was too good, but the real story was hair watch, and it was all fab. The girls repeated the introduction style of giving their names and favorite anime. Honey changed her choice to Jojo's, while Maa said just Disney instead of Disney Channel. I'd say that Maria got the best intro screams of the night. Eripon flubbed her line and we started an "eeeeehhh" and she was really ticked off, lol. During Cha La Head Cha La, Maa forgot where she was supposed to be in the line, and Sakura had to correct her. I went for yellow and white lights, for Honey and Chii. My setlist prediction was a bit of a wash. They did both songs from the single, NO SATURDAY NIGHT BOOOOOOOOOOO, no How Do You Like This Japan (as their jumping choice of song for the night was What is Love), and no Jerajera ;_;. All in all, though, it was a great time. No matter the song choice, the girls were going to give a great performance, and they did. Notably, there was no big concert screen, or any steadicams in the press pit. This indicates that there won't be a regular DVD release of this concert (the licensing for the other artists was probably too onerous). A big side effect of this, though, was that for anyone not so close to the stage, the solo performances weren't so exciting as the girls' formation dancing. At the end of the concert, we started a Harunan chant and a yellow ocean. Pretty sure we really ticked off the anisong fans at the point, lol. Some of them though we were trying for an encore. Honey blogged the next day that she heard it all way on the third floor, and later she had a few pictures with the other guests where she was holding one of the yellow glowsticks that had been passed out to help facilitate the yellow ocean. After all of the non-VIPs had exited the building, they set up the tables for us to high five all of the guests. The non-MM's went first, and then the girls went in reverse-seniority order. I AM SO GLAD I REHEARSED WHAT TO SAY, and it was complete and utter success. I both fist bumped and high fived the non-MMs. Gave a "Country Saikou!" to Chii, a "Yo Bonito Queen" to Yokoyan, who was really tired at the point, kind of froze on Dii, sorry. I was planning on asking if she had bought a Gunpla, if it was a handshake, but that would be weird for a high-five setting. I did a mustache twirl for Maria, which made her laugh, and then I was like pretty much about to freeze for the rest of the girls when my friend and I both all but accosted Maria with questions about if she was in San Francisco or not. She said yes, but in that setting she might have said yes to anything. But it carried me through Chel, Sakura, and Maa with us just telling them we came from San Fran and that they should perform there, so that kind of saved me from freezing. I told Ayumi "meccha kirei," and my friend did a "Snefuru kakkoi," told Honey "omedetou," gave Eripon a "yo subleader!" and saluted Fukuchan as leader. She saluted back! And then the high five line was done, a complete and utter success, with an autographed poster to finish it all off. It was magical. Best interaction line I've ever had. (Also, since it was explicitly a high-five line, all of the girls gave great high fives unlike Angerme.) We then headed to the stage door, and the security there was gracious enough to set up a railing to clearly delineate where we could stand, and it was hella close to the door, too. The downside was that we were originally going to sing Saturday Night to them, but then they told us all to put our phones away, so we couldn't look at lyrics, and that part fizzled. But we gave "Otskaresama deshitas" to the various Staff and the other guests. The girls were in two separate vans, sorted by age and gen. Maa looked like a complete diva, wearing a diamond-patterned fur coat, a hat, and sunglasses, swaggering to the van. Meanwhile, Eripon was like in a full head wrap, with just her eyes visible. None of them were as pro as Angerme's stage door exit, though, none filmed with their phones or did Dawa's genius phone flashlight in the van move. I tried dancing Saturday night a bit, but it probably just looked like more Furari Ginza dabbing, lol. There was both an afterparty hosted by the J-fen and a locally hosted karaoke session, but we declined both to grab dinner with some of the new friends we had made, and then headed to bed.
