MAPLESTORY MENTIONED!!!!!

Gods I'm a fucking old-ass veteran of that game. I began playing in 2009 and I actually quit in like 2019 iirc. Few years ago I got a private server, and I was playing up until this year and then just fell out of favor. But damn that game is nostalgic af!!! It's awesome!!! <3 I'm genuinely SO glad to see others who played it!!!!

RIP Lionheart Castle to the Kaiser hackers, and the Demon Slayer spammers. XD

MAPLESTORY MENTIONED <3 i played from 2008 until .... gosh, i don't even remember when i stopped, it sort of fizzled out for me as the game got less fun and more pay to win. the last couple of times i launched it even the biggest hubs were completely empty, no heneseys hoes to be seen even in channel 1 u _ u absolute ghost town. and all my characters are on windia, which used to be one of the most popular servers! Not Anymore I Guess

it's the kind of game that i feel like... even if you're in a popular server or something, even if you're in a private server, it just takes too much dedication to play anymore. it's not really for casual people anymore, the whole community and culture is totally different now and it makes me sad. i feel like 2008 ~ 2014 was Peak and then it started to fall apart after that, too much grinding and not enough fun anymore.

i need to work on my dbl au soon cause as much as i like to personify the server and its events at the end of the day that shits not on purpose lmao and as much as i love that its not on purpose i wanna explore a plot where it actually is on purpose

[catgirlhell]

people are finding out about the fediverse again and i just KNOW they are not going to understand it lmaooooo. some youtuber needs to get out ahead of this shit before everyone's understanding of federated protocols gets shaped by whatever the hell threads and bluesky think they're cooking

waiiiitt I just realized the reason why I love QSMP so much as a concept is because it's kind of like my childhood growing up overseas oh my goooodddddd what if i cried

(since my first post introducing my objectum server wasnt all that professional imma try to set it right LMAO) If you are objectum, posic, questioning or even just an ally to objectums, maybe youll be interested in my discord server! It's 18+ (or whatever age is adult in your part of the world) and mostly centered around chatting with other cool peeps (tho ig most servers are? idk) while you are able to be totally yourself! as long as you dont harm others kinda deal, ya dig? (just off the bat before i post any links or clarify further, we dont allow zoo/pedo/or necro, ship discourse of any kind, or any kind of bigotry, if you decide to make fun of a furry or 'debate on how valid objectum is' or what have you, youll get the boot!!) anyways, heres the link, i hope this post was a bit more informative! i hope to see you there :D

[spacebuck]

genuine and srs post do any of my moots play and would be open to talking abt either g/enshin or s/tar rail because I'm going actually insane lmao

[just-mebs]

Already missing 2v8 lobbies😔its fun seeing the same people every couple of game and having them recognize you. I dont get that enough in the regular game

did a dnd oneshot today kinda on a whim (signed up yesterday) and it was fun dgmw but also kinda made it clearer to me the kinda dnd im just not that into. we did very very little roleplay and most places we visited were quite summarily described and only there to get what we needed done and leave, and then after wrapping up our characters meeting, getting a quest, getting ready and going to the quest area in like 2 hours the rest was only combat. i got into it and all but ultimately not rly what i wanna do in dnd yknow... i love roleplaying and talking to npcs and exploring some worldbuilding and especially getting to do creative stuff and strategies, and i reckon this doesnt rly mesh well w the type of dnd that appeals more to people who most enjoy long and challenging fights against evil. i still had fun and enjoyed myself and the people were cool but also this is not something id wanna do a whole campaign of and its nice to get more experience to figure that out basically

Bacon Kab conversation yesterday and Jaron Kab conversation today is very interesting, to learn about their mentalities vs Kabs as a new player,,,,

i have a lot of thoughts about peoples views on engagement and art

but the general tldr is that, while yes, its not Wrong to want engagement or attention (its why we're posting online after all), people dont really approach it in the healthiest way especially when they don't receive any or the reception they got is not what they hoped for. i mean, look at any art fight confession blog at this time of year, engagement ends up being the biggest worry/complaint and it always saddens me that people view the art space like this

when people say 'you should draw for yourself rather than others' theyre not saying that wanting engagement for it is bad. nobody is saying that

but its more about not staking the value of your work entirely or even mostly on the reception of others. your art is valuable because you made it. stake the value of your work on your own pride first and foremost, and let others be secondary

ultimately, you can't force people to say something, you cant force people to reblog instead of like, etc. and you have to be ok with that. for your own sake, really, you'll tear yourself apart otherwise

i'm a little afraid to go to pride this year. many of us are, a little. sitting around our tapas and video games, the silence that hangs over the discord server. it feels different, we say.

we're privileged. the community that came before us laid the groundwork so i could be raised in a different world, and i will never forget their sacrifices and dedication. they gave us this: a pride that feels like community and celebration and joy. i remember the first few times i went to a queer event - i'd been raised so catholic. feeling safe like that, for the first time... it saved my life. i go to pride to celebrate that feeling - my people, laughing. out in the sun, the way we couldn't have been even 25 years ago. that feeling: no wonder we call it "pride."

who am i to be afraid anyway. there are parts of the world where people are doing much better work than i am. but it's just: i felt at home there, you know? and this year feels different. we are waiting on the dam to break. last year, at boston pride, there was a whole gaggle of sign-holders shouting about jesus. you walk around them and try not to let it get to you.

this year, i'm going to DC's pride with my girlfriend. google sends me concerns about if it's safe to exist in trump's america, if World Pride is a bigass target on all of us. every article uses the words "safety concerns" many, many times. three days ago i witnessed a shooting.

even straight people keep telling me - people are weird lately. sometimes we blame it on Covid and sometimes we blame it on the full moon. but i do remember a time before this, right. it's not just that people are more comfortable being rude. it's this strange, outwards violence. a comfort in being cruel.

it's a big hole to fall down anyway. it's not like they're going to do anything to make pride safe, not really. i don't want a police presence as the solution. and what if this is just fearmongering! what if this is just to get us to stop attending our own events! what if everything is actually fine, and i'm just freaked out by the stated intentions of our president!

and what if i'm just listening to things that are being said. what if i'm weighing the shape and size of this america accurately.

my mother calls me. she's been getting the articles too. i assure her i'll be careful, but i put the phone down and stare at it. i'm going to go to pride. other people made it safe for me, it is my duty and my honor to show up for my community. the only thing we've ever had was each other. it was always an act of bravery. being ourselves is brave.

but i am afraid. i lay out my outfit and i kiss my girlfriend. i cut my nails and clean up my undercut. i hold her hand and hang the sunset flag. the sound of this america feels different. like a volcano trembling. i will love her and i will love being queer and i will sing over the noise of it.

but ... still. in the back of my mind. that feeling, like something terrible has been shifted. like somewhere in the night - they remembered we're different.
