Opinions and Facts. [Topic Blog]

That's a topic that was recently given to us from our English Teacher.

Alright, so what are opinions and facts to us?

Opinions are what a person feels or think by their perspective. They have biases and are usually driven by their belief and values.

And here is the kicker in situations[mostly debates] that are based on opinions:

There are no wrong and right opinions. Opinions are subjective. Many do not stay firm because a person could change an opinion overtime.

Facts are normally statements that have evidence of its existence. It can be verified with evidence in simple terms.

However, facts can be proven and disproven. They can be right and wrong. They also change! They are called a fact if they are true. If it's not true, it no longer holds the title of fact.

This is how we saw it. Though, what do you guys think? Comment or reblog it if you wanna.

Just a reminder to do your own thorough research on this topic. I might have given a lot of loopholes for people to point out. So feel free to add more. ✨️✨️

I keep seeing ads for cotton candy flavored vape pods on tumblr and it made me wonder…

Why/Why not in the tags?

I’m interested because I feel like when I was in high school/college in the mid-10s, almost nobody smoked - even if you otherwise had some pretty hard vices. I think it was considered not really worth it for something with such a small buzz. But now, idk. Maybe the advertisers are right to target people here because it’s just that popular again??

(Reblog for a bigger sample size etc etc.)

IM BACK HELLO!!!

For an update for anyone who missed it! My blog got detected amd swept by the anti-spam bots on tumblr! Gunna do my best to make sure that DOESN'T happen again, but hello everyone! Queue's will be back up and restarting by at least htis friday while I get my barings.

the idea that tumblr as a website is “cooked” or whatever because of photomatt’s allegations is extremely funny to me because it’s ignoring the fact this godforsaken website has been sold at least three times now to different people. it’s hot potato with this shithole

💖 Day 3.5 is now available! 💖

For the last couple of months, only Server Boosters had access to the 3.5 update... Buuuuut now it's available for everyone to play in the 14DWY Discord — and soon itch.io once I'm happy with the QA and state of the game — so please don't feel pressured to join unless you want to!!

The full devlog + even more screenshots are under the cut ^^

What's been added to the 3.5 version?

📺 Streamer Mode!

I've been told that it's difficult to stream and monetise age-restricted videos on YouTube and Twitch, so I added an option to remove the sexual content and strong language used in the demo.

Now y'all can invite Ren into your bed for cuddles without putting your streamer career on the line /silly /lh

This won't affect the 18+ rating or dark themes/elements of the game, however! Although Streamer Mode will prevent you from seeing any "gruesome" CGs in the future, most of the core elements of the game will still be tied to the choices and decisions you make. So you won't miss out on the overall experience by using streamer mode!!

⚙️ Custom Pronouns!

It only took me one entire year to get around to it, but you can finally choose your own preferred pronouns (or use a set of pronouns instead)... At the cost of being able to change them mid-game ^^;

Since the original pronoun screen wouldn't update until a new scene was displayed, I temporarily disabled the feature. But once I find a workaround, I'll bring it back!

💗 Choose how others perceive you!

You can now choose how the cast and narration perceive you! Originally, the narration was kept strictly gender-neutral (outside of pronouns and genitalia picked by the player), but this will soon change in future updates.

For more clarity: you don't get to choose the words specifically, but you can choose between masculine, feminine, and androgynous terms!

📋 Separate top and bottom genitalia!

You can now choose your tatas and pps separately! >:3

Alongside that, you can also choose your preferred body type!

I removed the "both" genitalia option because a few players still assumed it was an obscure version of "intersex". That wasn't my intention and I don't want to mislead anyone, so I took it out for now ^^;

I also didn't want to include a screenshot of the new genitalia choices in action (because it's NSFW), so y'all get the same character menu screen for the nth time instead lmao

📱 Relationship Screen Overhaul!

You can now change your own status for more immersion, and long-term Server Boosters will eventually be able to submit and use their own icon within the game as well!

Stalking finding your friends has now become easier by using "Buddy Maps"; a new app that allows you to see the location of all the cast members!

I want to offer players more incentive to check the relationship screen since they tend to miss the status updates, so hopefully this might help ;v;

It also says it "updates every few hours" so folks don't go overboard and check every 5 seconds to see where Ren is gdsghf (also keep in mind that he's a hacker lol)

🖤 Additional Scenes Update!

Day 2 received a brand new CG!!!!! Originally, I planned on only adding a few CGs sporadically throughout the game, but it didn't feel right to leave Day 2 so... empty... so I added a brand new CG to (hopefully) make things feel more balanced and natural!

If you decline Teo's offer on Day 3, Leon will now call and try to convince you to reconsider. However, players are still allowed to decline, and if they do, they'll reach a dead end.

After listening to feedback on itch, I changed some of the dialogue during Days 1-3 to make it seem more consistent! They're only small changes though, so it's honestly not worth looking for sdgjssga

🎶 Updated BGM and SFX!

I wanted to try out a different style of music to see if it fits the vibe of 14DWY more! The BGM features more acoustics to suit the "beachy" theme of Corland Bay, though I made a conscious effort to include piano elements as well to stay true to the original!!

I figured it'd be better to give players a live example before I make a poll (to see if they prefer the change or not) and publish it to Itch.

Some new SFX have also been added, though it's very minimal and honestly not that noticeable.

How to download and play the update?

(warning: clicking on the following links will open Discord!!) To download the Day 3.5 update, simply join the 14DWY Discord server, verify your age, and visit the "14dwy-updates" channel!

Alternatively, you can also wait until the update is publicly released on Itch to play it as well!! (It normally gets released shortly after a round of QA testing/getting feedback from the server, though I may release it earlier if I feel like it hehe ^^)

Enjoy!!

Hello, although I know this isn't the topic right now with all the Error stuff happening, I wanted to ask more about Olive and the Twins!

How old was Nightmare when he meet Olive, and when did the "incident" happen to the twins in this AU?

olive and nightmare met before they were even in their teen years - but old enough to understand the world around them is flawed

the incident happened not too long before they could be considered of age to be king

Opinion Topic: Personal Drama/Disagreement Online

(Long paragraph and pretty much for both plural and non-plural if you guys wanna read it)

I think the word 'personal' is something we all would hear whenever we see something in the public. Drama, anyone?

Okay. Let's start with what is a personal drama or disagreement. We'll be using personal drama for the sake of this topic, but some of us in the collective wanted to view it as a personal disagreement.

"Personal drama" refers to interpersonal conflicts, disagreements, or emotional turmoil happening within a person's close relationships, often involving heightened emotions, arguments, or significant tension.

It is something personal and, at other times, NOT supposed to be out in public. The Internet, by all its glory, is unpredictable at best. Its common factor about it is that people would go after the person whom you have trouble with. It's the norm that we have mostly been seeing.

Personal dramas that suddenly come to public is nuanced in how the public perceives if its the right thing to do. Why is that?

If it were to be public, the positive is that there would be people who would know the issue and sometimes speak on their opinions. The negative is that it may result in harassment and possibly worse actions towards the user being outed. (But this can be different for another user)

Have we all forgotten that many dramas are from teenagers? TEENAGERS. (I use many and not mostly because I know there are some who are adults that also mess things up)

Teenagers (and apologies for my tone on this) fuck things up. Literally.

Teenagers will make mistakes. A teenager would learn from their mistakes if they want to improve. If you think drama is because a person did some bad actions when they were a teenager, do you think there might be a possibility that they have changed or have grown out of it?

Yeah, all teenagers are different. Are we to judge? Not really. We mess up, and I mess up. We all do mess up. And we can learn from that.

No. I'm not going to think I'm better than you in thinking what I'm saying here is right. I'm learning, we're learning. Teenagers have a tendency to think that they know everything. And that's absolutely fine. But there is a point where we should teach them to grow out of it.

Hell, I could be wrong in making this post, but hey, what are your opinions on personal drama being online? Do you disagree with me? Let me know! Would like to hear your thoughts. You may reblog or comment as you like.

And remember, humans are the embodiment of imperfections striving to be better than ourselves! (If you could call it that.. don't take this as literally, i have no idea what im saying for the last part since I thought it would be what humans are all about.)
