[alteredsilicone]

also human loid saw the 1999 segment (since he commented on wallbrecht's demented smile) and...

did he see it through the pom-2? a scuffed livestream from arthur's mindscape?

honestly the whole transference-into-the-vessel is a wild concept in on itself

we are not simply time travelling, we are mind melding with arthur and basically riding his consciousness while he is still fully autonomous while we have to do ~something~

supposedly loid knows what that something is

soo it is implied that the intro cutscene to witw is a dream necraloid saw which he supposedly should not have been able to see because "constructs don't dream"

anyways

i think necraloid and loid (original) should team up and smack albrecht on the head at least a few times, for catharsis

that time i was watching a thatgamecompany livestream and kept telling them to get purposefully krilled and they read one of my messages out loud and said “we did that 15 minutes ago”

[mxthtea]

i can finally say boothill without whispering it!!!

total pulls: 200

are you guys a fan of how i'm titling things now. i am.

had a ton of fun in su today. gold and gears is so fun to do,, big damage!!!! argenti is fucking insane there. he krilled himself. kinda fucked up if you asked me. all in the name of beauty or whatever.

2.1 livestream !!!! it was so fun :] it's always fun to see the devs together and joke about developing and talk about developing. one of my favorite parts is how they described making acheron's splash art. makes me wonder the process for other characters was.

zzz is releasing a video in about. 1 and a half hours !!!!!!!! could be another beta test, could be release. who knows, but i'm so excited. i am bothering so many people (one specific person) by talking about it so much. i am so excited for this game asfhjashdjdsfhjfsdahj

today's been pretty good :]

Brief life update: Landlord problem sorted (for now, at least). My support system is awesome. I believe you have all been contacted about repayment, but if I missed anybody, let me know.

I have not bothered to tell my roommates this. I hope they are experiencing unbearable amounts of stress. The Useless Narcissist did eventually cough up his share, but the (Probably Soon-To-Be-Ex-)Wife has given me nothing yet. They can stew.

One of the NPOs I work with threw a birthday party for a friend of a board member back in February. I ran it for them, as I often do. I'm good at being an attractive, friendly person who knows where all the extra chairs are. 

I rather like running these parties. They're full of interesting people that I will almost definitely never see again, so it doesn't much matter what I say to them. The birthday girl was 80, and a semi-retired "spiritual counselor" -- apparently, she was where the priests and rabbis and imams went when they needed to talk through their problems. She described herself as "spiritual krill", which amused me greatly. A bunch of her kids were there, and a grandson who was probably on the spectrum and could not stop talking about airplanes, and a musical theater actor from Manhattan who complained that Cambridge was not drinking hard enough at 2 pm on a Sunday, and a variety of other artists that told as many weird stories as there are feathers on an Amazonian parrot. Her Moroccan cleaning lady made a secondhand appearance by sending a half-sheet cake topped with blue frosting and chocolate-covered strawberries. They told me I should be eating their cake and drinking their wine with them, so I did.

One of the nice things about working in the arts is that if you can still do your job well with a glass of wine in your hand, nobody cares.

The board member who threw the party apparently thought I was great fun, because he got the coordinator to give him my email address so he could ask me where to send a thank you card. Which card, when it arrived, had a $100 check in it. Welp. I was paid to run the party in the first place, mind, but being an attractive friendly person who knows where the chairs are only gets you about $18-20 an hour. 

I've never been told I can't take tips, but I've never asked either -- this one was the biggest I've gotten, but it's not the first. One of the more memorable ones was when I was working box office for a show where a gaggle of kids had come up from New York to perform with Boston locals. One set of parents had failed to buy their tickets before driving up from NYC, and the show sold out. The ticketing software didn't have any way to start a waitlist for shows with late seating, but there are always people who don't turn up, and even if by some miracle everyone made it (they didn't) that theater had bench seating and I was not paid enough to care if they were two people over fire code, so I told the parents to come back in 45 minutes, and told the manager that one couple had to duck out but would be back at intermission. I had no way to sell them a ticket and was fully prepared to sneak them in for free, but the wife did everything short of stomp her husband's foot and hiss, "honey, bribe the usher." He gave me a $20.

The bigger news, though, is a gig I've landed for mid-May. I got an email a couple months ago from one of the orgs I do livestreaming for asking if I could run sound for one of their shows. They had correctly guessed that I knew how to do this, but only because they don't understand the difference between running digital sound for a webinar/class and operating the 32-track analog behemoth they have up in their tech booth -- none of them are in any way technical, that's why they call me. I didn't expect a lot of help from the venue, but I ended up running the pre-show music off my phone, and the board off a random laptop using VLC, which is, uh... let's go with, not industry standard. 

I thought my performance was adequate. Like, the show did happen, more or less as planned. The lighting designer apparently thought I did so well she specifically requested that I run sound for the next, much bigger show she was lighting at that venue. I am, apparently, "the best". I have learned to just say thank you and shut up when people say these things, because it's rude to argue with others over their own subjective opinions, but if that was "the best" I really have to wonder, what kind of unrepentant fuckups had she been saddled with before I came along? 

Anyway, the much bigger show thought I was a perfectly reasonable choice(!!?!?!?!!?!), so I'm now signed on for that. I refuse to half-ass this anymore; if they're going to pay me sound tech rates, I'm actually going to be a sound tech, and do this correctly. Industry standard for this stuff is a piece of software called QLab, which is only available for Mac, and has rental licenses for a totally reasonable $5/day. I am not okay running $1500 of show off a computer that dies if you trip over the power cord, so the battle-scarred MacBook I inherited from a previous roommate has gone back to Apple for a spa weekend and a battery replacement, a surprise expense which I am only able to cover because the same superhero support network has indicated they do not need their loan money back in a hurry. So thank you for that as well! I have about a month to teach myself how to work QLab for real.

I've spent Easter feeding junk food to rats and trying to wrap my brain around the idea that someone thinks it's "totally reasonable" to pay me $50/hr to sit up in the booth and periodically click a large button marked GO. I have to keep reminding myself that all the tech stuff only seems straightforward to me because I have been mucking around with it since I was ten. I had a look at the service manual for the mixer before I tried working it the first time, and at one point it literally says, "This will make more sense if you look at the block diagram," so I suspect a large portion of that hourly rate is there just because this is terrifyingly complicated to other people.

[For the uninitiated, a block diagram is a simplified line drawing depicting the components and connections of an electrical circuit. For something like the mixing board I was dealing with, it's usually close to, but not identical to, the actual schematics. My father has designed custom circuit boards for a living since before I was born, so I'm well familiar with the things. But if you're not I suppose they look a bit like a Mondrian take on the Nazca lines. I probably couldn't troubleshoot a broken mixing deck from the diagram in the back of the manual, but I can follow it well enough to see where all the inputs and outputs are going.]

Still no grant money, not that I expected it to land on Easter. The waiting is the worst. A lot of my problem right now is that I need to raise my freelance rates for a lot of things, but until I get that cushion in place I can't risk losing any of the clients I currently have. Some money is better than no money, but some money is not necessarily enough money, which is the fundamental problem.

Samson and Sally

Welcome to the 'highglossfinish' room. Thenightetc: *is summoned by noises coming from the tab* Thenightetc: omg. Shockbox: ...Interesting way to start the night, Knock Out. Knock Out: The humanling deserved an audience. Thenightetc: That was extremely cute. Shockbox: Fair enough. Knock Out: I hope everybody's ready for an obscure film about whales dying horribly. Thenightetc: Is that what this is going to be? Thenightetc: I've never heard of it, so Ratchet: I'm actually glad Radar decided not to stay for stream night. Knock Out: It's...certainly something. Thenightetc: So it's like Watership Down but with whales? Knock Out: More or less.

Shockbox: I have not seen this film nor Watership Down. Shockbox: But it sounds like a ride. Thenightetc: Watership Down is *great*.  Also harrowing, but great. Shockbox: What. Shockbox: That does not seem to be the variety of whale well known for eating anything larger than krill. Shockbox: Then again, I'm no marine biologist. Shockbox: Hm. Knock Out: There's a version in English, but it's fairly painful. Thenightetc: Biological accuracy doesn't tend to be a feature of these kinds of films Thenightetc: ...witness, the octopus with a mouth on the front Shockbox: That is /abhorrently/ inaccurate. Knock Out: And a penchant for grabbing young whales in dubious places. Ratchet: Well, that's morbid. Knock Out: Definitely for the best that Radar sat this one out. Shockbox: Is it lagging for anyone else? Thenightetc: Does it keep ... yes, for me too. Knock Out: Hold on. Let me fix that. Shockbox: Glad I wasn't suffering alone. Thenightetc: The problem seems to be with the livestream connection, not the movie itself. Knock Out: That should help. Thenightetc: yyyyyes, that's probably true.  he's not dead, he's just... somewhere else. Thenightetc: (The lag seems to be fixed!) Knock Out: Excellent! Knock Out: Wouldn't want to miss out on this all riveting...whatever this is. Knock Out: *all this Shockbox: They appear to be torturing the polar bear? Shockbox: Or, well, they were. Thenightetc: Or stealing its food, at least Thenightetc: ...I like the killer whales' leitmotif, at least Knock Out: If there's one thing this movie has going for it, it's the music. Shockbox: ....Promotion only? Knock Out: It was legitimately the only copy I could find. Shockbox: Hm. Thenightetc: So are the killer whales sapient, too, or...? Ratchet: Human data stream's funny that way Thenightetc: ...How did they carry that up there Knock Out: I take it back. Watership Down this isn't. Thenightetc: Why do they have feet Thenightetc: what ARE they Shockbox: ....... Knock Out: I'll have whatever they're having. Thenightetc: This just raises further questions Shockbox: I suppose nothing in this film can bother to be anatomically accurate. Thenightetc: GAH Knock Out: This has gone on about three minutes longer than it needed to. Thenightetc: oh thank god. Thenightetc: Oh, they're alive.  Never mind. Shockbox: I'm just. Shockbox: Tilting my head at the screen. Thenightetc: ...what Shockbox: I beleive that is what the humans refer to as a 'Big Lipped Alligator Moment'. Knock Out: Radiation poisoning explains a lot about this world. Shockbox: It really does. Knock Out: Watch out for Lavender Sweater McWhitePants there. Thenightetc: Does that bird have teeth?  I think I saw teeth Knock Out: Radiation. Thenightetc: Why are they still hanging around in the same area Shockbox: The bird was flying so /slowly/, how did the man allow this to happen to himself. Thenightetc: *shudder* Knock Out: Can't they call him something else? Ratchet: ... I'm not terribly sure what I've come back to Thenightetc: Why do the makers of this movie hate octopi so much, who hurt them Shockbox: On the behalf of all cephalopods, I am mildly insulted. Shockbox: ....Those /slapping noises/. Shockbox: Primus. Knock Out: Did they just...? Thenightetc: This is like that bit in The Lion King Thenightetc: That sure is how ships work. Knock Out: This movie's just full of how everything works. Shockbox: Upon performing a quick search through the human internet, these appear to be sperm whales, which /do/, in fact, consume cephalopods. Shockbox: So this is accurate to a degree, but it doesn't excuse what they did to the poor octopi. Thenightetc: It does not. Ratchet: ... well Thenightetc: Or the... walruses?  Whatever those were. Thenightetc: With the dancing. Shockbox: The only accurate thing in this film are the references to the sperm whale's dietary habits. Shockbox: And even then, I have only seen them consume octopus. Knock Out: They bid an emotional farewall to the "promotion only" sign. Shockbox: Yes, the text showing up at random intervals certainly adds to the experience. Thenightetc: ...what Knock Out: My personal favorite was when it showed up in the middle of the walrus song. It seemed...fitting. Knock Out: That moon, though. Knock Out: Is that normal? Shockbox: No. Shockbox: No it is not. Shockbox: That is just as bad as drawing stars on top of the shadow-cloaked portion of a given satellite. Ratchet: ... is... what is happening at this point? Thenightetc: It's showing us about the evils of pollution. Shockbox: ...I have to agree with your comment earlier, KnockOut. The background music can be pleasing. Knock Out: Wait 'til you hear the background music they pull out at the end. Knock Out: Makes all the rest worth enduring. Knock Out: ...And apparently, this is the first time he's seen the sun set over the ocean? Thenightetc: Maybe? Thenightetc: Did that turtle just Shockbox: She needs to stop doing that. Shockbox: That is physically impossible. Shockbox: Not that such mistakes are surprising, given this film. Shockbox: /Perfect timing for this text./ Knock Out: His corpse sounds like an old tarp. Knock Out: ... Shockbox: Hm. Thenightetc: well then. Thenightetc: Why is he such a blob Thenightetc: I love how there are all these modern-ish buildings in this ancient mythical city. Knock Out: Ooh, here it is. Thenightetc: Also cars. Knock Out: This slow jam. Thenightetc: ...Oh. Ratchet: I wouldn't call it an "ancient mythical city," considering that particular landmark. Thenightetc: Yeah, okay, it's just they kept calling it Atlantis. Ratchet: Did they? I couldn't tell. Thenightetc: Or they did at the beginning. Knock Out: Right on schedule. Ratchet: Is there a particular reason that every "mankind is destroying themselves" film uses that particular statue as an indicator that humanity has failed its planet? Thenightetc: It's recognizable, it's American, and it's near the coast? Ratchet: It's certainly two of those things. Knock Out: And that's the end of that little experience. Shockbox: Well. Shockbox: That was anticlimatic. Thenightetc: All that just happened. Shockbox: Indeed it did. Knock Out: It did. It really, really did. Knock Out: If anyone else has anything they'd like to see to end on a more climactic note, feel free to throw out suggestions. Shockbox: Hmm. Thenightetc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk6Ejm6mN1w ? Thenightetc: "Hermione the octopus eats a crab- close up " Ratchet: If it wasn't a full-length film, I would suggest... primus, whatever that movie is that she keeps talking about. Shockbox: I approve of us ending this with cephalopods. Shockbox: They deserve more appreciation. Thenightetc: They're great. Shockbox: 'To sleep'. Knock Out: Humans do love lying to children. Thenightetc: Why not? Shockbox: .....What is this video called? I want to save it. Knock Out: "Homosexuality in Octopuses." Shockbox: My thanks. Shockbox: I need to capture some of these creatures upon my next visit to Earth. Knock Out: And to wrap it up, these same scientists laughing at a cuttlefish. Thenightetc: Oh my gosh Thenightetc: ...it's not mov oh, there it goes Ratchet: What Thenightetc: What's that lower left one Thenightetc: With the... mouth Shockbox: Now /this/ is the climax we all had been anticipating. Shockbox: I do not regret joining this stream. Thenightetc: ...Is the octopus trying to eat the toy Thenightetc: *concerned* Shockbox: They tend to nibble on things curiously. Knock Out: Like most newsparks. Ratchet: Like a surprising number of newsparks. Knock Out: There it is! Rainbowmouth. Thenightetc: *leans forward* Shockbox: Intriguing... Knock Out: This human annoys me, but this is interesting. Thenightetc: Huh. Thenightetc: What are those *teeth* Shockbox: Ah, I'm familiar with these. Knock Out: It looks like it hurts to be it. Thenightetc: Woah. Shockbox: /Leaning forward. Shockbox: ....I will need to collect more than just cephalopods, upon my next visit. Knock Out: Collect this human too, if you don't mind. Dissolve him in something. Thenightetc: *...leans back* Shockbox: Hm, I /did/ run out of human samples... Knock Out: This one, then we'll call it a night. Shockbox: I am fine with this. Knock Out: This human has a more pleasant voice. Ratchet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyYo3Hm6pS4 Ratchet: Rafael sent this about fifteen minutes ago and for some reason I cannot stop laughing. Thenightetc: ...it kind of looks like a shaved bear. Knock Out: You know what's nice? How humans are stuck on this world, but I'm not. Shockbox: Hm. Shockbox: Thank you for the stream, Knockout. Knock Out: My pleasure. Thank you for stopping by! Thenightetc: Yes, thank you! Knock Out: Good night, everyone! Shockbox: Another time. Thenightetc: This was great... some parts moreso than others.
