I installed the new monitor for the Street Fighter II cabinet today..
The size difference isn't astounding but the screen is bigger and the bezel smaller and the sprites on screen when I'm playing come off as less dinky afterwards..

deeply obsessed with post-canon isa/sif/loop dynamics.
on top of everyone's personal time loop crash outs, isa and loop are in the lab playing 4d emotional chess. they're inventing new and fresh types of inferiority complexes the world has never seen.
loop never got this far with their isa. there's no script! they knew how he'd react when he was a puppet, following his lines, but who knows what happens now!! (in the loops, loop was siffrin's only confidant. they were the MOST real. outside the loops, what are they? a shadow? an echo? not a guide, anymore. they don't even belong in this timeline, unlike the rest of the party. the universe has abandoned them. who's the puppet now?)
isa is trying to keep himself from panicking because it's great that siff met up with an old friend who looks like the tear of an eldritch being, it's fine he never mentioned them, siff is very private! of course they're so comfortable with each other, isa just doesn't know what it's like to have a childhood friend!! he's not getting replaced, haha!!! (and sure maybe it stings that siff and loop are physically comfortable with each other so fast, when it took him months to hold siffrin like-- oh, well that looks more like a headlock-- maybe loop pretending to choke siffrin is an inside joke? he should probably go check on them anyway, just in case...)
meanwhile siffrin's in the corner having homoerotic tension with his dagger every time bonnie trips on a root.
#they eventually figure it out but in the beginning they are sooooooo messy <3#idk how to tag this bc on one hand ig it could be considered isa/sif/loop#but to me i don't really care if/what kind of romance is there and i don't think they do either#they've got bigger issues to worry about they just take that stuff on a very specific case by case basis#isat spoilers#also on the 'siffrin and loop show affection by beating each other up' agenda#they tone it down around bonnie and odile generally keeps out of it (that is NONE of her business) but mira and isa actively monitor them#and often end up caught in the middle#ugh i don't want to plot a fanfic but. i have. scenes#and opinions

#i'd love a bigger tv (using as monitor) most of all since i'm halfway across the room to sit at my desk and using zoom to see anything 💀#ah one day (i will never have money)#maybe a monitor would b cheaper..not like my playstation works anymore 🤔🤔🤔#ben.txt

the normalest lot of lovely faces you ever did see
#this is a filler post but i like showing off the talksprites in color lol#i initially started the artstyle in that black and white style entirely to avoid coloring the environments. I'll be honest#it's still nice to cheap out on bigger pieces n work faster when i need to as well!#and it gives it a kind of 'retro game' / 'grainy security monitor look' which suits the story#but then theres also the fully colored pieces we all (mods) have to make black n white to fit the style...#its a sad tradeoff sometimes but i do hope it makes the occasional use of color all the more special :]

something i think is very funny about veilguard is the black sclera FINALLY being an option now
i know i was pretty fuckin loud about qunari/vashoth NEEDING to have black sclera back in the day (it sets them apart a bit more as something more than just "taller humans with horns) , and i still stand by that, tbh, but upon playing da2 (the game with the first Solid Qunari "design"--even if it was like three models reused ad infinitum) for the first time in several years on a bigger screen and higher definition, i've come to a realization

i don't think the qunari actually ever had black sclera, i think their eyes were just so deep-set and shadowed by their brow (because THE HORNS FOLLOW THE BROWBONE, VEILGUARD!!!!) that it just looked like the da2 qunari's sclera were black!
so, we were wrong the entire time
but i WILL keep doing it regardless😤
#pidge plays dragon age#pidge plays veilguard#thank you for coming to my ted talk#i checked multiple qunari too#maybe its bc for the first time im not playing on a 2010s era desktop or a gaming laptop#my monitor is like Uncomfortable Large (i say this bc the one i wanted was smaller but it was sold out)#(and this was the only one available at the time that had all the hardware i needed--it was the same model just a bigger size)#(and only like $10 more so i was already spending a fuckton on a gaming pc so i said fuck it and then got it home and was like WOAHG)#(ANYWAY)#but STILL#i saw the arishok in HD for the first time and then i was like 'hey wait a minute'#WE WERE DUPED#WE WERE WRONG#now that its been made optional its canon in my heart and no one can tell me otherwise#what's the point of being a die-hard dragon age fan if you can't look actual word of god canon in the face and say 'fuck that actually'

I've gotten myself into a bit of a predicament where the new d20 ep was yesterday, and tonight is cr, but listen summer just started on my Meadowlands file and I have so much work to do–
suffice to say I am teetering on the edge of falling behind on these very long shows I have committed myself to and that is sooo dangerous for my adhd brain
#i think i could watch cr WHILE playing#cuz i dont really take ss during those. and also its just a bit more chill and podcasty#but d20 i cant. if im watching it im WATCHING it#theyre too fucking wild lol#also i only have a laptop. no desktop second monitor. anything i watch is on my phone#MAYBE i could put it on my switch for a slightly bigger screen but thats it#but nah i was playing sdv last night and noticed it was 1am and knew i was fucked lol#the hyperfixation goes hard#critical role#dimension 20#d20#stardew valley#sdv 1.6#sea rambles#i just got squash seeds yall im fuckin hooked

Plugged in my secondary monitor for the first time in over a month. Looking at my quality edits sideblog on it, and I'm reminded why it's always a good idea to look at your work through multiple screens: You'll never get a perfect match (thx a lot technology), but it's a good way to make sure that whatever tweaks you do it will look as not-horrible to as many people as possible.
(That being said, why does my Samsung make everyone's shit look like they wanted to play with Hue and Saturation settings like a clueless five-year-old? We just don't know.)
#personal#Anyway I only did this so I could properly watch Conclave for the first time in a while#Want a bigger monitor for that god damn it#Even if this one makes colors look slightly washed out compared to the main laptop's even after I edited its settings

ok any artists buddies who might want to chip in:
I'm looking for tablet reccomendations since I might get myself a new one for christmas (not really thinking of pen displays but I'm willing to hear opinions of really good ones) I've mostly used huion and wacom products with mixed results for both but I want something that will last at least 5 years and in a reasonable price range. hopefully wireless. and I want to hear opinions of real people and not tech site bots
#im thinking $150-$250 but I could go a bit higher#I've currently been getting by with my galaxy tab and an old huion. I'm not a very exquisite person when it comes to tech...#both work fine. but since I upgraded my monitor it feels like I could use something with a bigger drawing space

It's one of those projects.
#the four-monitor problem#(even if one of them is tiny and flat)#a.k.a. i really need a bigger multi-monitor rig sometimes but I don't have the space unless I completely sacrifice daylight#the joys of being an artist/graphic designer/visual media creator

Not a big fan of new years resolutions in general, but I do plan on watching more dvds again this year.
Last week our streaming broke down in the middle of a movie marathon, so we went back to the long forgotten dvd player - and god I missed those menus that play the best scenes of the movie as sort of a teaser while the thing waits patiently for you to select scenes, languages and subtitles.
Also never worrying about being logged out on accident, internet problems, subscription prices rising.
#suddenly i am glad I grew up with horrible internet and thus amassed an extensive dvd collection#dvds#the nostalgia in setting up my computer with an external drive and a bigger monitor attached
