I have a sickening deficiency of spirit (i am playing idealisms today) where i cannot for the life of me understand the appeal of applause so i get really mad listening to recordings of live music. like i understand the function of applause socially it's just that i don't like it in the same way i don't like chewing sounds and stuff. which is annoying because i really like the part of live music where it sounds worse than studio recorded stuff (the messy is fun) but i draw the line at hearing a large crowd of people screaming "woo"

when are we gonna add "don't call your magical energy mechanic 'mana'" to the woke agenda that's ruining video games? it would be such an easy win, they just have to do a find and replace for a single word, like the thing they seemed to think we wanted when the words 'male' and 'female' were suddenly made absent from character creators that still clearly intend to reify the concepts they signify.

sometimes i keep getting the intrusive thought to write about how pronouns in bio and preferred pronouns are just a reflection to how english doesn't really have a way to gender yourself linguistically so you have to gender yourself by proxy of others; watashi think that we should just have neutral 3rd person pronouns but have Thailike open-class first persons
