@ceiphiedstarlight@queer.party Oh gawd, now I'm just tempted to go track it down and give it a look 😅

@glitterbomb You're very welcome

This has been a very positive social sphere for me in the month or so since I hopped on, hopefully yours will be a similar experience!

@glitterbomb Hello, and welcome to the neighborhood! ^^

@AudreyJune Highly recommend their fried chicken! The strawberry lemonade is to die for, and the fried okra really surprised me with how tasty it was.

That's entirely too true, tbh. I kind of wish I'd managed to stumble in a bit earlier, rather than flailing around on various forums and such surrounded by... less than wonderful people. 😅

But, ultimately, the important thing is that I did find my way over, and I've been loving it!

@honeysweet it belongs in a museum 😮

@sascha@deadinsi.de holy crud, I've reported crap tons of people and have never actually had it make a single shred of difference

@AudreyJune It probably helps that this is more or less the first online space I've been in that has such a significant queer presence. Which is good, because I've burned out extremely harshly on social spheres dominated by straight males

As for Tacoma... well, at least Southern Kitchen is down there?

@noelle god bless america?

@ceiphiedstarlight@queer.party DoA is tons of fun, definitely! I've just never had anyone around that has ever been particularly interested in it myself, so I've not really had much chance to really get into it... since I've sadly gotten to the point of more or less being just done with playing competitive games online with random folks. 😅

I confess that of those games I've only played GGX (always been kiiinda trash at GG) and BlazBlue (which I'm major trash at)... I'd never heard of Jojo & Plasma Sword 😮

@AudreyJune True, that. I think I'm just normally used to being surrounded primarily by folks in the Northeast when online.

And that sounds delightful! I'll have to run over and give it a try in the near future. Fried chicken sandwiches are one of my favorite things... particularly when they aren't owned by bigots. 😅

@GinnyMcQueen@kitty.town america never fails to impress

@GinnyMcQueen@kitty.town I'm sorry, what? my brain just exploded a bit so I'm not entirely sure I heard you right

@shadow8t4 a regular bowl of happiness, right there

Its been a few moments since I've had any tonkotsu. I really need to fix that.

@AudreyJune okay, first off... is it my imagination or is nearly everyone here on the West coast? 😅

And second... how was it? They've been on my radar for a while now.

@Lumb you too?

@scalie_skelly_grrr I need to have one of these

@Eweish I'd be packing my bags SO FAST.

@ceiphiedstarlight@queer.party Oh nice! Here's hoping that the PC build goes smoothly! I've yet to pick up a PS4 myself, though Horizon Zero Dawn has been tempting me.

As for other fighting games, I like a lot of goofy anime fighters - Melty Blood, Arcana Heart, and the Touhou fighters for example. A touch of DoA sometimes as well. You?

I mostly use my stick for SC/DOA/AH, and stick to pad for the others. I think I'm decent enough for the most part at them, but prrooobably not quite tournament material 😅

@azushark that's... like adding insult to injury >_>
