It's really funny to take Spanish with people from different Spanish-speaking countries, because the ones from South American countries are like "Yeah no one uses vosotros, we don't know what it's doing here" and the ones from Europe are like "If you don't give our beloved second-person plural its due respect, the Hounds will find you"

genuine question: what drew you to name your blog "grox" after the guys from spore. they are kind of cute with it tbh so i can see why youd want to

Long answer, and this is truthful: It's an act of destiny. I was 6 when spore came out and read about it in a NatGeo Kids magazine, I instantly fell in love with it from the blurb and so for my next birthday, I recieved a copy that I played on the family computer in the computer room. I loved it so much that I'd play it instead of playing with my friend who came over to visit and play with me.. Since the computer was old and shitty even for 2008, it would crash pretty bad, so my mom banned it and made me uninstall it because we both believed it was a computer virus. And this genuinely like broke my heart so bad because I was young and when youre young the world of computer games can be entered and lived in and the scenery fit so well with me and my soul and my mind I was obsessed so I would always beg to reinstall it and shed say no and I'd cry. And this would happen over the years too, like, 6, 8, 10, 12, until I got a computer of my own at 13. But I never stopped being obsessed with it, I'd read the manual every day to try and learn as much as I can to prepare for the next time I played. Since I was a kid and space stage confounded me, I never got to encounter the grox. Their page was always my favorite in the entire manual due to how different, and ominous the whole thing felt. Page after page of game mechanics and they just hit you with, at the very bottom, THE GROX. Beware the Grox. They don't understand relationships. Zero further information, just that, and like, a bunch of blank space so it can linger. It scared me but I was so intrigued. I was already watching a bunch of spore videos on ipod touch youtube, so I looked up grox videos, and I thought they were so cute. I was like, oh wow. Theyre so cute, and evil... Oh, just like me! So I was obessed with them in particular alongside the world of spore, I'd watch videos featuring the voice clips, their music, befriending them, extincting them, the like. Fanmade spec evolutions. And my love of spore waxed and waned but I did always love them. Notably so. I downloaded spore again in 2015 (?) due to realizing steam exists because of trying to play FNAF with my buddies after school and it was a lovely reunition. I finally got to meet them and it was awesome. I mean the magic of the world was gone because I was no longer a little kid, but in retrospect it was still a little magical.

Short answer, and I also mean this: In 2021 I was typing random shit as the username for sideblogs to see whats free and it was free so I took it and skipped town.

What the hell is going on in this game

realized i have started texting like mr darcy

fun fact: "large language models are not conscious intelligences they're just predictive typing algorithms, they don't have minds, and they cannot be the victims of racism because they cannot be the victims of anything because they're literally just fancy text generators please for the love of god stop personifying them you're playing right into the hands of these big tech companies that want to act like they're the new Promethei so they can sell that vision to their shareholders" and "wow you were really quick to jump on the idea that you could make up slurs for robots, and the speed and degree of glee with which you did so makes me feel like the judgement of your peers was literally the only thing holding you back from dropping actual slurs all the time, that all you needed was an acceptable target, and that is honestly pretty worrying to me." can both be true at the same time. these are not antithetical concepts.

Aliens: Wow you guys sure are completely normal and not at all indescribably horny.

NASA *beating the alien fuckers with a broom*: Yep. Just a completely normal species. no inappropriate lusting for extraterrestrial booty here, no sir.

if you wiped every ICE agent off the face of the earth, a hundred million people would become safer overnight. if you wiped every furry off the face of the earth, the entire internet would collapse for good in a matter of hours. i know where my allegiances lie.
