#Sorry to doomerpost

cannot believe we were robbed of kiwami 3 because of a cash grab majima game:(

however it does mean that kiwami 3 is confirmed to be the game after this basically

While I would like a Kiwami 3 (graphical update and rebalancing combat a little) I didn't believe it was happening and still kind of am not sure where I stand on it, since I'm concerned about what they'd do exactly and if they'll end up recoloring Mine or changing things up strangely to fit this new Richardson lives timeline or whatnot.

Idk just Majima game feels draining because one, mascotizatized Majima vibes, and two, lately I've just been missing the earnestness of the drama. I liked Yakuza for how seriously it took its own deranged plots, while at the same time being silly, but it feels like things have been banking on the silly-meme-game more as of late.

Gameplay looks fun at least but not for 65 dollars oof. I hope the Majima stans and people with whimsy in their hearts can enjoy this and have fun with it at the least kgckx /gen

I hate hate hate what modern algorithms have done to the internet. All the big sites are falling apart. Smaller sites aren't helping anyone. I hate that you have to walk on eggshells for every post you make, even for fun, or you're instantly squashed by layers of suppression.

No, I'm not moving to bluesky or mastodon or whatever. I'm not creating even more accounts to manage. I've tried growing on smaller sites multiple times. Doesn't really work unless you had a massive following to begin with. I'm not calling these sites bad, because growing a site that isn't a major platform and managing its functionality is hard work. But jumping ship for places that may or may not help isn't a realistic solution for many people.

I'm very lucky that I don't have to rely on posting on the internet to survive. But NO ONE should be fighting tooth and nail to survive, just to get their posts seen at minimum. I create because I like people seeing my work and I like meeting other creators. But there are times where no one even looked at them because of how far they were hidden.

If a creator complains even once about struggling to get reach and you call them attention seeking or whatever, I hate you. There is nothing wrong with wanting your work to get attention just for the sake of attention too.

I do have the support of some great people, don't get me wrong. I have circles where we can share our work and admire it with one another and I'm very, very grateful I at least have this. But I'm still tired. I want me and my work to grow outside of this, too. Is that so wrong?

[uranium]

im not listening to that frank interview i know its going to make me doomerpost and will make me spend the next week of my life in a state of utter despair. but i can already guess what he says so so glad he loves being in lsdunes so fucking much and sorry he has no clue on if mcr is still alive . <3 .

[umbralundertaker]

Omg thank you toner...

Yeah man turrets rock. I'm in Texas and they're replacing those houses with McMansions that start in the 300Ks. I fucking hate the future bro I just wanna go live as a reclusive turn of the century patron in a wooded area near a small town's square

It feels like gentrification is unavoidable these days. People know that housing is becoming more unattainable these days but developers and landlords don't care. There's inevitably gonna be a housing crash (look up the growth ponzi scheme by Strong Towns)... idk I could talk about this stuff all day its one of my weird little autistic hyperfixation. There really isn't a future for North America

Even though they don't believe it hurts them in overall political favorability right now, taking money from 'big oil' is going to start becoming ammunition for green energy types as inevitable climate catastrophy gets worse every year. I think powerful campaign material can link big oil to climate change as it grows in the public view as an obvious causation. I think displacement and lack of accomodations by the state will force bigger concessions due to the moral panic of the contradictions of being one of the most capital rich countries in the world that let's it's people fend for themselves when they can't be directly tied to the damages (ie. The hurricane destroyed that coast, not the US). I forsee increased defunding of FEMA by conservative Democrats even, and increased funding to private companies specializing in disaster cleanup/emergency response. I'm just doomerposting sorry

[wormworker]

sorry for doomerposting but ive been crying on the floor all day & feeling like this world offers no hope whatsoever for autistic people

our posts & videos about the massive, constant injustice against us never go far

there are no songs about it

autism month is barely recognized

torture & eugenics of autistic people is glorified (and called ABA ""therapy"")

never autistic success stories published, just inspiration porn for abled people & no input from the autistic person

everyone says "awareness" & never thinks about acceptance

puzzle pieces everywhere with no acknowledgement that it's dehumanizing to us

high suicide rates underreported & no one listens or seems to care. no alarm whatsoever. no effort to lower it. you abandon us instead.
