@LilyVers explicitly told me not to do this. her exact words were:
> you will find knowledge moving forward, but it will bring no comfort, no wealth, no power, no pleasure. there is no one at the end of this shadowy path who will reward your sacrifice, no pleased smile or soft lips or kind, slender hands to soothe your broken body, your reaved mind. ahead lies only ruin. ahead lies a Pyrrhic satisfaction. ahead lies a pit whose sides are slick, and you, seeker, you dare to think you carry a rope long enough to climb out. TURN BACK.
so, anyway, here's
@vikxin say it louder for the folks in the back because FUCK YES TEAM ROCKET TRIO IS TRANS AND MEOWTH IS ENBY
@mavica ooo prettyyyyy
Okay so Castlevania Simon's Destiny, the GZDoom reimagining of the first castlevania? .... pretty good.
You'd think a first person perspective and the doom engine itself might make the game easier.

@heytanuki@snouts.online @Felthry I think I heard somewhere that the original plan with the Saturn was that it was fully backwards compatible with the entire megadrive library out of the box?

@masklayer i love these cute little micro cars omg
@jk @envgen My brain: 90s snare go PSSHHHH
me: that's... not a real instrument, you're just basing that off samples from .MOD music files when you dabbled with scream tracker 3.
brain: also 90s snare go TSSSSSSSSSSSSSH
me: those were bad lo-fi samples and you know it
brain: CRSHHHH
me: okay THAT one is just a mislabelled crash cymbol, come the fuck on.
just finished watching Your Name and... holy fuck. That's... fuck it's heartwrenching, but so good. Beautifully animated, beautiful music, story, everything. Just.... holy fuck. Still very cishet, but it's exceptionally well written, and not hackneyed or contrived, and internally consistent, so I'mma give it a pass on that.
Cried buckets of tears at the ending.
I need to find about 100 people in the next day to back this thing or it's going to evaporate... that's possible right? 😅

The GB game used the same track, and you might ALSO be going "and on and Ariston" in your head like I still constantly do because aaa
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
