#fighting for this shit since like 2013 i'm a veteran

[homodotus]

s.s. endurance... that's a name i haven't heard in a long time

[cetrouz]

I'm pretty much a veteran when talking about Atelier801 games and stuff. Though I don't know their recent plans or games, I have good memories of their past ones. But I have to say I'm surprised this company has lasted for so long because it has been 5-6 years since their games have fell out lol

Anyways, I'm gonna go through their games swiftly and talk about them because why not.

- Transformice (2010)

Oh Transformice... How could everyone forget. I had played this game since 2011 and it was of course the most iconic one of the bunch. Just a couple of mice getting the cheese and going back to the den. The concept is so simple yet it was so fun with the countless of maps created by the community and different rooms that offered special gamemodes. One of my sonas is from this game. I think it's still fun to play these days, although it is very empty and the lack of brand new events doesn't make the game exciting to come back to.

- Bouboum (2013)

It's just an online bomberman. It's very basic but it doesn't make it less fun. Though it's likely my most disliked game of the bunch because of the huge lack of customization and the repetitive gameplay. The game itself is very grindy if you just want to get a pretty skin and I don't like how the obvious way to quickly get them is to pay money. But Atelier801 has always been a bit greedy with their customization options.

- Fortoresse (2014)

A 2D shooting game, but one of the most broken, confusing, and glitchy ones. However I found a lot of fun too. I guess the weird mechanics and completely broken weapons made the game funny to play and that gives you equal amounts of rage and laughter. The game is not quite pay-to-win because it's way more easy to get currency compared to Bouboum, but the weapons and perks you do have get with currency, so it requires you to grind to get better.

- Nekodancer (2014)

MY GOD Nekodancer was my jam. It's just a rythmn game like Friday Night Funkin' and that one Club Penguin game at the disco club, the only difference is that the PLAYERS submit YouTube videos to play in it. The sequence of arrows is generated with the beats of the video/song which was just a great concept at the time, allowing players to send their own music. There were always some weird videos people put in but nothing too bad, the absolute worse though is when someone put a metronome beat video because dear fucking god how do you beat this fucking shit

- Run For Cheese (2014)

Only those who know knows. A mobile game that was just an obstacle race with Transformice characters. It's pretty basic and honestly I can't see the reason for the creation of this game because I don't even remember how they monetize it. Hilariously enough, I had pretty high stats in the game which just shows me I was hooked with it when it still existed lol

- Dead Maze (2018)

Project Zomboid rip-off but easier and visually cuter. It's like a PG version of PZ. To be honest I think I only played this game once and I don't remember shit except there was some kind of story idk, I guess someone hit with a car in the middle of nowhere and you got stranded. Can't say much about the game because I hardly played it.

- Transformice Adventures

Apparently this game hasn't officially released but I did remember playing it...? It's just cute little rats fighting insects and I guess there was some hype to this game when it was announced. It was fun to play with friends. But I don't think there's anything else on it worth saying. It's just a cute game with a concept I've seen in 238 other games.

There were other two games on the wiki list but I've never heard of them before so I never actually played it. There was also Celousco but it was cancelled (I remember when we got the news the game was cancelled, it was a bit sad). But anyways... Well that is it.

[nomand-berserka]

A little openly honest abridged intro in to me and dealing with my head and my black dog.

I am the newly appointed Team Leader for West Yorkshire with the guys at Veterans Hike. @veteranshike

Ive found a love for hiking over the past few months, since this crazy lockdown here in the UK.

I have struggled a lot over the years since leaving the Army, still dont feel like I fit into the bracket called Civvie. I know that may sound a little cliche. But it is exactly what it is.

I joined the forces straight from school. There was nothing for me where I lived, and with a long proud military history in my family, I felt it's what I'd always wanted and knew in my early to mid teens, that I'd join up.

I felt I did pretty well, considering pretty much everyone I knew, thought that I wouldnt even make it past selection. Well I pissed on their parade let me tell ya.

I'm not going to go into the ins and out of my career. But the tours I did, were SFOR (peacekeeping) Bosnia 98 and Op Agricola Kosovo 99.

Now with that, I've seen some pretty fkd up stuff at the ages of 18 and 19.. But you crack on and get the job the done. Get back home and continue as normal.

Now upon leaving the Army, I felt very lost. Ended up going from job to job, due to not being able to fit in with or liking the people I worked with. Often getting pushed out because of having a different mindset... This turned into a serious dislike for people in general. There was no bond, no brotherhood, everyone out for themselves and didnt care who they fkd over to get what they wanted.

This became the time I started with the heavy drinking and the stupid violence, infact the drink and the violence became the reason I lost my family and almost ended up 6 feet under.

The violence continued, as I just hated everyone... for lots of different reasons. This then led to me serving time on a couple of occasions. But it still continued after being locked up... I didnt see it as a problem, as I just thought "I wont take peoples shit", and I'll show anyone who tries to give me shit. That it will lead to getting hurt. Jump forward to being left for dead with 2 stab wounds... Yes it got that bad. Maybe I was asking for my way out?

Jump forward a year or so of living a dark time.

Its then i got into martial arts (Muay Thai under the tutilage of master Ronnie Green 5 time world champion), a friend of mine didnt want to see me locked up again. Or with more perforations than a "Tetley Tea bag". This became my drive again, I'd found something I could focus on and put myself, my whole self into again.

First session in, I was hooked. Had my first full contact fight at just over 6 months and had plenty thereafter, still have the copy of my official invite to the 2013 world championships. This was my crowing glory moment... This is where I'd found the focus to not be that drunked violent ass hat. My fitness went through the roof and I felt good again for the first time in years

Injury got me though, put me right back to not being able to train. Even ended my career, I tried to train again, but way too soon. Causing myself more problems. Taking even longer to get back to 100%

My anger started to creep back, the bad food the drinking... and yes the violence. then jump again forward to going back to prison for a very violent episode in 2015. Where 2 people got badly hurt. I pleaded guilty. I tried to reach out for help before the day in court. But it was too little too late...

However, in prison this time in 2016 I asked for help. Where can i get it, and who can help me the most.. There was a small eager group called Care after Combat, they concentrate on helping Veterans, who are sent to prison. During and after release. (I'll go into them at a later date).

I've kept my nose clean since then, was officially Dignosed with PTSD in 2017, so done a few local therapy courses Anger Management, CBT but still no actual PTSD help as of yet. Combat Stress, I think may have forgotten about me hahaha.

But the thought of prison!!!! id rather not go back ever again. Plus I'm getting on now, and not a 25 year old dick head. Eith a chip on his shoulder about civvies anymore.

Jump forward again, to present Covid 19 times.

I'm a joiner now put myself through College 12 years ago. The outdoors have always agreed with me. But after a work accident last year in August I had 14 weeks sat at home gaining weight. Bordem drinking and eating shit and the head started to go again. But thankfully got back to work early December.

In March 2020 and we get Furloughed. For however long it may take.

So I gave myself THE talking to. Stay off the booze (well not completely hehe). Keep yourself busy. Find a focus in something, anything. Just dont he that dickhead again.

So here I am, I spend at least 3 days a week walking the Pennines and the moors between my beloved Yorkshire and the dark soggy lands of Lancahire. Its literally 20 minutes from my door to where I park the motor. My head still goes south, but more into the low mood and hating myself for allowing what I'd done in the past. I've had depression for years, but it was always over shadowed by my stupidity. So when it does that, i hit my local park and do 10 laps (8 miles) of that. Or just get my pack ready and hit the trails. Often doing around 15-20 miles.

Now I've started with a small Daystack and have started adding weight, carring 15kg. plus 3 litre camelback, food stuff and inclement weather gear. Its north of England the weather does what it wants. "If tha dunt lyk weather, jus bloody wait 20 minutes It'l change". hahaha.

Doing this has given me more drive in my fitness and massively boosted my mental state. Plus the escape from the rat race bollox that we all have to live through. More and more people have started to notice my weight loss. Down from 20 stone to just over 17 stone. Now I'm as round as I am tall, but for a fat lad I've been told I'm pretty fit... Guess all those years in the Army, years of Muay Thai and Kempo Jiu Jitsu. It must have left some form of conditioning and muscle memory. So this again boosts me. I'm now picking up the weights at home and even got a bike... so this new found fitness is a fantastic feeling again... it's not just about keeping busy anymore, it's about showing people. Who I'd alienated during all these years, that I'm not the same guy, and they are wanting to come on hikes with me now

(Its also pushed me to train for the 3 peaks... but that's another story for another time)

It's also the biggest Therapy I can give myself, sometimes I go it alone and sometimes I have company. The outdoors is literally where I feel at my easiest and most peaceful... The benefits are there for everyone who knows me, to see. Its physically demanding, but it's so peaceful. If I bump into other people, there is always a nod a smile and a "morning/afternoon" exchanged. Not all people are nob heads haha!

I cant stress enough how good it feels to keep occupied physically and mentally, buy doing something I never thought I'd do...

It's become my passion... I'm looking into longer routes all the time, and now looking at some proper outdoors gear. Better rucksack even a tent. If being up the hills for a few hours or just a day, makes me feel things are better. Then surely a couple of days and nights will be even better...Right?

I want to thank anyone who takes the time to reads this, however you see it. Be it on insta, Tumbler or FB. So cheers guys and gals.

We all have hardships, we all need that help at some point. Go out and find what makes it all better, please guys. We all deserve to smile for what ever reason.

Who knows, we may even cross trails someday. You'll always get a smile and a nod from me.

[candyfloss-techno-hell]

Not gonna lie, this is anti-climactic. Your 'proof' is just the same vapid pseudo-arguments that lobbyists and dumb interviewers have been babbling on for the last decade. I honestly expected something different. I'd like to specify that I don't support or even agree with BDS, as I haven't done enough research on the organization itself to develop a proper opinion. I'm just slightly allergic to slander and crappy arguments.

First off the pig contained many other symbols : the Crucifix, the Crescent and Star, the Hammer and Sickle, the Shell Oil Logo and The McDonald’s Sign, a Dollar Sign and a Mercedes sign. (list from Roger's 2013 facebook op-ed, have you read it ?) The Star of David was just one among many. I thought you were against singling out ? The reason for these symbols to be on the pig is because Roger is anti-dogma, and he views the things they represent as dogmatic. He's already explained that the facebook op-ed - srsly have you even read it ? He's often criticised other religions in interviews and in the last stanza of Déjà Vu which are also easily googlable. Roger specifies in the op-ed that the Star represented the State of Israel. That being said, even if it was about Judaism, since when is criticizing a religion a hateful act ? If you criticize Catholicism, does that make you a bigoted anticatholist ? Strangely enough Christians and Muslims haven't made a big fuss about their symbol being on the pig. Just Jewish Israelis (important distinction). It's almost like they think they deserve a special treatment or smthing ?

« it’s made by a Jewish person so they have all rights to say what is antisemitic and what’s not » So... are you totally unaware that people can be wrong and even dishonest about political issues involving the group they belong to ? In that stupid logic, if a group of women started saying that, idk, men wearing their hair long is sexist, then they MUST be right because they're women and therefore cannot be wrong about what is sexist and what isn't ! And besides, it would be sexist to disagree with them !

Saying 'I've got a Jewish friend/ family member so I can't be antisemitic' proves nothing, agreed. So what ? It « just tells us that he is indeed an antisemitic person » ? Are you fracking serious ? You think having Jewish people in your inner circle & saying it, is a symptom of antisemitism ? At this point I'm starting to doubt your sanity. Besides it's not even like he made up some vague, unverifyable relationship on the spot to sound more convincing, we know exactly who these people are : Simon Wiesenthal's nephew and Roger's daughter in law. They could even be asked personally whether they find Roger disrespectful.

And finally, possibly the crappiest argument I've ever read on this site : «I know we all say that it’s not supposed to be a nazi sympathising movie or album, but I think it was rather unnecessary of him to write the lyrics of in the flesh part 2. I don’t see this as art, but as an excuse to hide antisemitic and homophobic etc. shit in his music. » So basically, you don't like his work and that's enough of a reason to ASSUME that the characters he plays in The Wall -who it's so painfully obvious are SATIRICAL- weren't actually characters. Guess what ! Maybe Charlie Chaplin was a huge fan of Hitler and Henry Ford all along, and The Dictator & Modern Times were just excuses to hide nazism and his admiration of capitalist exploitation in his movies ! I mean, it's not like Roger ever used his fame as a platform to draw attention to the human cost of gross abuses of power like, idk, the Falkland War, the two Gulf Wars, PSTD and lack of financial support for war veterans, the persecution of whistleblowers and Human Rights activists, Native Americans struggling to have their rights recognized... It's not even like his own father literally died fighting the Nazis, right ?

You know what, I'm not even going to compare you to Nostalgia Critic, that would be unfair to him. At least his behaviour had some sort of logic to it : he was mainly doing it for the money.

My Thoughts on Book of Atlantic (this is gonna be super long and I'm on mobile so I apologize)

As we all know, I love Black Butler. A LOT. I love the manga, I love the anime, I love the characters, it's been a really positive influence on my life! It's made me happy and it's one of the things I don't think I could live without. Now before I begin my thoughts on it, I want to share something else. There's this thing called public decency. I have been waiting for this movie since I heard it was being made. When I heard it was playing at a theater near me I was ECSTATIC. Now like I said, I've been a fan since 2013 which, granted, isn't very long, but I'm a "veteran". I've lived through all these "wars" that the fans have here and I'm kind of over it. 2013 me was cringey as hell. She'd run through her middle school halls like Sebastian and do Grell's DEATH pose all the time. She called herself an "otaku". But that time has passed now (thank god). I still love all the characters and I'm glad a lot of people grew up from their "otaku" phase. And if not, you will! You enjoy ir friends! It was a fun time for me! I was having a blast! I was just cringey. So enjoy it friends! But just know you'll look back and feel a little gross lol. Continuing... Tonight was the night! I grabbed my sister, who loves Black Butler as well. Not as much as me, but she still loves it. She hasn't read the manga so she really wasn't too sure what it was about but she tagged along. I wore my Sebastian shirt, my pentagram necklace, and she wore her Claude's contract necklace. We both looked like nerds but hey, we're watching an anime movie, what do you expect? We get to the theater about 15 minutes before the movie starts. I bought the tickets and we look over and see someone cosplayed as Ciel in Wonderland. I knew there would be some people cosplaying, which is great! Cosplay is fun! I cosplayed as Sebastian once upon a time, so I was excited they were having fun as well! Then we buy our overpriced snacks and head in. There were people already in, which is expected. They all looked roughly 13-30. Fans of all ages! Awesome! Many were females and wore their Black Butler merchandise like me and my sister. Someone had a Ciel cosplay! Eyepatch and all! It was nice, but my sister and I had this feeling that we wouldn't be able to enjoy it like we should... We took our seats and adjusted, and the movie was about to start. Everyone clapped as the birds flew in and I was ready. But then it happened. The fans kept squealing and screaming and yelling and "oh bassy~!" Everytime he came on screen. Now I get it, Sebastian is 👌, but this is a public theater where people want to watch the movie and HEAR what they're saying. Squealing and screaming everytime something "hot" happens makes it less enjoyable for everyone around us. The older people, me and my sister included, kept turning around to shush them because we couldn't hear certain lines that were crucial to the plot. I had to sum up what happened while everyone was screaming about Grell coming on scene, Sebastian's demon form, and yada yada. Basically this went on for the entire movie where the "fangirling" was getting straight up annoying. Now I get the reactions, I would've done the same (kind of maybe low key but idk), but this is a PUBLIC AREA FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE NOT READ THE MANGA AND KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. Friends; it's annoying. Yes, Grell is amazing, yes, Undertaker is amazing, yes Lizzie is amazing, THEYRE ALL AMAZING but please, some people want to HEAR the movie. The screaming and squealing made it hard for me to thoroughly enjoy the movie because I missed certain lines that I REALLY wanted to hear spoken in English by their voice actors. My sister didn't hear a lot of it and she felt like she missed a lot from the screaming and whatever. So to summarize: guys, you're in a public area. No one has seen the movie and we want to enjoy it. Please, keep the squeals and screams to a minimum so others can hear. We weren't the only ones to get upset at them, a lot of people near us did the same "please we want to listen". So just be courteous. Laugh when it's funny! There's funny parts! Laugh away! Gasp when things happen because things happen! And it's intense! But don't scream, okay? Some of us wish we had a better experience because some people were being a tad obnoxious. I get it, I truly do. I love Black Butler a lot! But you're in public. Please be respectful of the people around you. After the final credits with William and them, the movie ended and I turned to see an older couple, who tried to silence those who screamed when William showed up. They looked about 40 and I assume were married. "I wish they didn't scream," I said, looking to the wife, "I love this anime and they kind of ruined it for me." "This is my favorite anime too!" She exclaimed. "I missed some parts that were my favorite and I didn't hear Grell's words while they reenacted the Titanic scene." "This was my favorite arc and I wished I could've watched it again." I responded, starting to walk towards the exit. So please guys. Just be respectful. Now if y'all have hung around this far, I wanna share my thoughts on the movie. I LOVED it. When I have more funds, I wanna buy it and enjoy it without the screams so my sister and I can thoroughly enjoy it. The animation with the birds and some of the bizarre dolls scenes were... odd... but hey, it was good. It just looked a bit out of place. Some of the facial features in far away scenes looked odd too, but ya know, it happens. It made me giggle. It stayed true to the manga! I wasn't too sure why double Charles were there, but it actually kind of made sense. Gray's and Sebastian's interaction made me laugh (but I couldn't hear the entire thing because of the screamers). I really enjoyed the both of them. And Paula was there! She didn't really say much, but I do enjoy Paula so I wasn't upset that she was there even if she wasn't in the manga. Ronald was great. I do wish he flirted with Mey Rin and interacted with the other servants, but I wasn't too bothered by it. Ronald is my sisters favorite so she was ecstatic as well. Grell! I absolutely adore Grell. He's one of my favorites as well. I do wish I heard what he said when he first arrived from the iceberg but I guess I'll know soon? Maybe? It did irritate my sister so I told her basically the gist of what he said. Same with the reenactment with Ronald. All around, I'm glad they stuck true with his character and his fun flamboyant-ness with his badass awesomeness as well. Sebastian's demon voice was great. I enjoyed that a lot. I thought it was fascinating and how a demon voice should sound like I guess. The animation with him turning into Sebastian was marvelous. I love the obscure drawing thing they had going and I thought it was amazing. His demon eyes and fighting scenes were animated beautifully and I just love that demon asshole a lot. ELIZABETH MY DARLING DAUGHTER. The way they animated her dancing and fighting was truly beautiful. It was one of my favorite scenes. I'm so glad they didn't shorten her backstory and explained the whole thing. I love Elizabeth and I will protect her to my grave. Speaking of backstories, I'm so glad they didn't shorten Ciel and Sebastian's either. That's one of my favorite exchanges and I'm glad they showed it in it's entirety. The way Sebastian thinks Ciel of a brat, how Ciel needs Sebastian to act human, but then how they have this dynamic that truly works. Sebastian initially sees Ciel as food, probably still does, but you can see that he's patient and finds Ciel fascinating. The knighting scene made me super happy and it's one of my favorite exchanges in the manga. Undertaker. My problematic little shit. He was great in this idk what else to say really. I do wish they made his death scythe out of ebony (bone maybe? Idk I know it's white) instead of the stone, but it didn't bother me too bad. It looked badass and that's all I cared about. The animation when Undertaker was explaining his motives, thoughts, and the ending credits with the bizarre dolls were my FAVORITE. The puppet likeness of it was amazing, the colors, the stylization, it was absolutely amazing. I wish I could describe it entirely. It was just so good it was definitely my aesthetic. I just love this movie and series. I would sell my soul (lol) for this series. It's a great movie! It had everything from the manga: the seriousness, the backstories, the funniness, the badass fight scenes, the 'philosophy' of what happens after humans die, it was just grand. I'd definitely watch this again, thousands of times, and finally hear certain lines that I missed. It was great and I'm glad it turned into something super enjoyable and amazing. (I'm sorry this is so long omg)
