Sucks that thigh highs are associated with being inherently sexual like…they’re socks. Staff considering putting them on a hatchling to be sexual is kinda sus 🤨📸
Also, some of the complaints about the new lore direction have made me realize some players have a really weird and limited view of what constitutes a person.
Saying that dragons are animals, so it’s not one group of people enacting violence against another group and therefore doesn’t have real life parallels... That argument pretty much falls apart when you consider that fr dragon are canonically sentient, emotional, and self aware. They build and invent things things, form complex societies and hierarchies, have different cultures... You know, all the things that people do.
The dragons are a fantasy race of people, To say that they’re not people because they’re not human opens up a lot of weird philosophical questions... And it’s just a crappy excuse to defend lore that reflects real life atrocities.
wild to think I've spent at least $2k on skins/accents (definitely more) primarily bc of getting mass pings from gasp. I don't go looking through the forums for accent shops bc it's a lot to wade through trying to find things that fit my aesthetics. it's not like there's a tagging system for thread contents, dragon gender/breed, styles, colors, or any sort of filtering that would make things easier to search on the forums. I can't sign up for a ping list I don't know exists, can't preorder or purchase a skin I don't know about 😓
obviously I like the new ping lists for single person threads, it makes sense for some things but less so for others since dom projects are run co-op with a myriad of users, and so many people utilize mass ping lists with filters for g1s, oldies, skins/accents, etc.
Girl- “my hyper-independence born as a survival technique in my dysfunctional home self-sabotages the good in my life because I’m always waiting for the other shoe to drop”- failure , and her boy -“I seek to please people because it distracts me from my own grief and keeps me away from an identity crisis, resulting in placing unfair expectations on what my loved ones can do towards my purpose when the only one who can fill that void is me”-loser come together to create the most beautifully breathtaking mess of conflict you’ve ever seen that is somehow chalked up to a man’s smut journals and his wife’s 1800s burn book.
Mikey and Leo episode centered around Mikey wanting to push Leo and Draxum together since Leo’s the most reluctant to give Draxum any grace (for good reason!) But, thinking on the spot, Leo says he’s gotta go do something for Hueso and “just can’t hang out right now 😔” (yes, he says the emoji out loud.)
Mikey calls his bluff and now the three of them (Mikey having grabbed a weary Draxum along) go to Hueso’s to find that yes, he actually does have a job for him. Said job asks for Leo to go with Hueso to deliver multiple pizzas to this giant yokai quite a distance away, and Hueso figured it would probably go better with Leo’s help (emphasis on probably.)
Well, Mikey decides that this would be a great bonding opportunity for them and basically invites he and Draxum along. Unfortunately for Leo, Hueso doesn’t care enough to wave away more help, though he does side-eye the wanted criminal Baron Draxum coming with them. But who is he to judge? (This choice has consequences.)
The journey goes about as terribly as you’d expect, but at least the pizzas get delivered on time.
