What are you working on? What have you finished? What do you need encouragement on?

Are there any cool events or challenges happening that you want to hype?

What do you just want to talk about?

What have you been watching or reading?

Chores and other not-fun things count!

Remember to encourage other commenters and we have a discord where we can do work-alongs and chat, linked in the sticky

I got caught up in life, entered the 25-26 school year, and got accused of being Birdie online. Jesus, life is crazy. I hate it sometimes, but there's nothing I can do. Will update later... probably. Message me anytime on discord (lasagna_predator)! I don't bite :D

Spoilers for post Forgotten Battlefield camp scenes to Yellow Glade to Monoco's Station

The Bond system is interesting, what's the point of it?

The 'check on the others' camp conversation between Lune and Sciel ahhhh. Lune's parents were Expeditioners?? What number? And Maelle was able to write in the journal. Will the apprentices ever see it? Maelle is wearing Gustave's arm band, she gave hers to Verso. 😭

Alright I went back, leveled up more Pictos and decided to brave the Yellow Glade. It's so big! And there's that Lost Wood place with the record?? I can't believe there was yet another group that died by mushrooms. 😭 And the two Expeditioners who gave up, and the group who tried WEARING Nevrons and failed utterly...... I couldn't beat the Mime here. Oh yeah, and another giant Nevron in the background. Somehow that seems the least of everything else going on;; What is the point of the Auto Death Pictos?! I need higher tier weapon items already so I can level weapons to 10.

Oh! I found out that the first record we receive is a reversed version of a real song, Mask of Joy, and it's basically the Mask of Sorrow now.

I dipped into camp and had a check in, it was a conversation between Maelle and Lune where Maelle apologized for accusing the others of not caring. 😢 It was a really lovely and sad conversation, Lune said she could feel the ones they've lost through Chroma and encouraged Maelle to try feeling Gustave.

I have zero interest in challenges that are near impossible to win without hours of patience and practice so I'm skipping the Painting Worship challenges.

Monoco is so interesting! Of course Noco is his son... Verso's way of getting Monoco to go with them. 🤣

Ughh the game crashes when my PC gets really hot, which happened during the Monoco tutorial.

mood :): tired

Shygirl - Room 2 RMX (album)

So, lot of kpop and new releases.
Also just gave a first listen to ADÈLA's debut album "Provocateur". She was done dirty by Popstar Academy doc and the online hate definitely affected her and she does touch upon it in her songs "Machine Girl" and "FinallyApologizing". I really liked her album, she has her own vibe and i hope she can become successful!

If i had to pick one song i've been obsessed the most it definitely would be "Different" by LE SSERAFIM.
The second one would be "Soap" by Yves ft. PinkPantheress since it had Rebecca Black's sample of Sugar Water Cyanide.
Album/mixtape of the summer is definitely "Fancy That" by PinkPantheress, i even bought the CD+zine.

Watch on YouTube

Good news: f5ve didn't disband! I was scared..
Few weeks ago i went to Flow Festival. I saw Air, FKA twigs, bladee, yung lean, Sudan Archives, and Charli XCX! It was an amazing experience. I also got to know more djs in my city and i have a new event lined up i'm excited about. It was a 3 day festival and i was really tired and overstimulated afterwards but it was worth it.
I got my grandpa's old record player! My old one didn't work so i've been playing my few records and planning my next steps in collecting, but this means i have to budget better and buy less kpop albums because it can be an expensive hobby...

right now its new again, and id like to keep it pretty regular

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:

Before adding me, you should know:
i enjoy all kinds of conversations and learning. as tyrion lannister says "I drink and I know things"

the name's jay.

an og LJ poster, moved here recently. missed the anonymity of it all.
i havent had to do my asl in so long, but im figuring the fact that i just called it asl tells you how old i am anyhow lol.

i live in the south, but i am not one of those kind of south people. i mostly just use yall a lot and say "hold my beer" sometimes.

alright. fandoms. hm. i guess im pretty into the marvel universes. have been since the first iron man came out. never really got into the comics, for no reason but i just havent. (i do read comics, mostly manga or graphic novels if i do.) im in love with Loki. love his porpoise. love his soul. not really into tom hiddleston himself, but ill watch his movies. (also ive gotten really into Hel from norse mythology, which is who Hela was loosely "based" on - they changed almost everything about who Hel actually is, but thats another post all together.) the entirety of guardians of the galaxy is the best thing ever. the epcot ride is the epitome of perfect. god its so good. uh, my favorite author is neil gaiman. i think his works are very visual and simple. keeps my wandering mind focused.

other than that, im really into thinking. there is no box. there never has been. i enjoy conversations about ideas and constructs and ghosts and time and whatever else. im usually the 'weird friend' of the group they shake their head at and go "thats jay".

im the one at a party in the kitchen 9 beers deep holding a cat talking at strangers about why the watch in 'Somewhere In Time' never existed lol

in irl i am a DJ and host of event nights: trivia, name that tune, music bingo, and any kind of parties really. one of my favorites was a 70s/80s/90s dance party. the playlist was fire. i also just recently joined a local coverband. we play mostly 60s/70s funky dancey music.

so. if you feel interested, add me (or i guess its call subscribe on here. which threw me off) and ill add you back.
more the merrier

It wasn't related to the pool or my heart! I don't know completely what's going on, I think I pulled a muscle, but I also had abnormal kidney readings. Definitely some pain still. It scared me with placement that it might be a hernia, so I went to check it out. The hospital staff was great.

Would you sin against your body to save your soul?
Should one go about quantifying the worth of every single atom in their being?

To envision yourself as a concept, rather than a human being, means inevitably losing track of what you are. Indulge, indulge yourself in the pursuit. Build yourself as your muse to concoct your own ideals, watch as they leave you flustered, alienated from humanity. Gravitate towards being something you are not, neither you ever want to be.

Nine moons ago you dreamt of something that has since escaped your mind. So, so fleeting; Like a flickering flame that burnt itself intensely to depletion. Your body built the dreams, erected every single monolith you've encountered so far and ever will. Yet it cannot remember, cannot act out of mercy to shut you off entirely from the warped messages it carves in each bloody pillar. You are a hostage to your will.

I'm tired, sapped, shambling about mounds of defunct interests that never bear fruit. My forked soul blisters and aches, nested in a hole-ridden melancholy, singing the same limp chorale that has cheered me up so many times before. My ears are sore.

Each step rattles my ribcage with the same bone-shattering puissance I felt when I first confessed love. Aching for the pressure of someone else snapping my bones one by one. Sweet, that was so sweet.

We are tired of being twisted, please. No more rich, conceptual, nuanced narratives; The body yearns for the predictable happy ending while the soul clashes agains the death of the self-assertion.

Would you cut your own hand off if it held you at gunpoint?
Should we pursue our own demise or just accept what's mediocre?

Sometimes I wonder. Something was lost along the way;
You two became the antagonist to eachother's story.

Soul and body are both the same.
My descent is a masterpiece they can sing along in harmony.

Name: Remy

Age: 41

I mostly post about: My personal life, mental health, game reviews, book reviews, movie reviews, and other stuff. I am also working on a furry fantasy novel that I hope to finish typing up one of these days--I already have it written out in seven or so notebooks.

My hobbies are: AI furry art, reading, writing, video games

My fandoms are: I was heavily into the furry fandom and AI furry art communities but had several falling outs with the former ages ago and the latter recently that led to me leaving social media, but I still enjoy doing them.

I'm looking to meet people who: Comfort me when I'm in need, make insightful commentary on my entries, appreciate my unique autistic perspective.

My posting schedule tends to be: At least once every few days.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: I am very somewhat ideologically sensitive as politics has broken tons of my past friendships.

Before adding me, you should know: I am autistic and very PTSD, damaged from 18 years of psychiatric medications. Read my sticky post to learn more.

The Magic Hour never ends

When you've accepted your true self
If your heart is empty, that means
That it has room to take in a lot of affection

I woke up for the first time at 6 am and felt great but had some problems in the night. Fell asleep and hour later and woke up and it was terrifying. The thing about whatever the hell is going on with me, it is often very different problems. I'm 17 yrs out of surgery, and I still regularly wake up with problems that I've never had before. Thankfully, I had a long ok run... But I can imagine why my current problems might be difficult: it is insane how many of them there are!

There has been a recent influx of new users after Othercon, most of whom are otherkin, alterhuman, etc. This post is especially for them and others like them, who may wish to reconnect with people they know from that venue or similar contexts.

Use this post to tell folks that you are on Dreamwidth, what your fursona or other nickname is, and who you're looking for here. You can use the template in a comment below, on your blog, or anywhere else you find it useful. This one is shorter than the more detailed "Introduction / Friending Meme" is. Skip anything you don't want to share; add anything you feel is relevant.

Otherkin Connection Template

Did you attend Othercon recently, or find out about this some other way?
What is your fursona, otherkin name(s), or other nickname(s)?
What type(s) of otherkin / alterhuman are you?
What kind of content do you / will you post about?
What are some other online platforms where people can find you now?
Who are some of your otherkin friends that you hope to find on Dreamwidth or elsenet?
Do you have anything else important to share that will help networking?

I hate having to write down my coherent thoughts on Siffrin having implied internalized homophobia for this analysis essay. Can’t I just point to Siffrin saying that he wishes he didn’t experience romantic attraction, Bad Touch, and their religion being implied to be based in ideas of unchanging fate, and then gesture at all that vaguely for a while

CRK localization can be really bad, specifically WRT Shadow Milk.

English localization: “Excuse me? I’m sorry to disturb you… But I’m still the MAIN CHARACTER here!” // Original text directly translated: “Sorry, but I’m still the main character. You haven’t forgotten about me, have you?”
In response to Shadow Milk saying she should trust him (“her colleagues”), Eternal Sugar says in the English localization: “Would you~?” // Her response directly translated: “Would I trust you if I were you~?”
English localization: “Well well! Where are my favorite minions?” // Original text directly translated: “Kids~?” (Context: he’s calling out to Black Sapphire and Candy Apple.)
English localization: “We all live for some spicy drama, amirite?” // Original text directly translated: “Is it okay to say when hard things are hard?”

That last one is especially egregious imo. I don’t even know where they got that

mood :): discontent

Part of the reason why I find Fuuta singing in pre-war Japanese so interesting is because, up until now, he's always been a character focused on progress, thematically. An intense focus on the internet, technology in its many forms, and progressive views. Even spraypaint is associated with rebellion, punk, and the like.

But, of course, religion is associated with its opposite. Stagnation, or regression, perhaps. "Traditional values"... While we don't know much about Amaneism quite yet, we know that Amane's original cult stressed a refusal of modern medicine, and the values of purity/non-vulgarity.

So now, Fuuta is singing in such old Japanese that many Japanese viewers either borderline or outright do not understand him. From "progress" to "regress", from the future to the past.
