What if I just made a video game

Okay maybe that's just me

Growing up means realizing that Tracer Tong was kind of right about decentralization

More on this thought in the morning. I'm tired

This is a generalization obviously. FFXIV has a ton of low-level grind mechanics that I could enjoy without ever touching raids. And there are plenty of games that offer raiding gameplay without the pressure of other people. But it's also... different somehow, in a way I can't explain.

Look, I either want high-level tests of mechanical knowledge and skill where I get to grind it out by myself, OR I want low-level vibing out that I can experience with other people without feeling pressured. And I somehow never manage to find either.

Every time I play an MMO I'm like "hm I wish this wasn't an MMO" and every time I play a solo game I'm like "hm I wish this was an MMO"

It's like when a website bitches at me for using adblock. I will enjoy your content, I will support you monetarily if I feel like it, but I will NOT roll over like a dog so that you can get a few bucks of ad revenue

It makes me irrationally angry when youtubers do the "X% of my viewers aren't subscribed, so hit that like button!" thing. And I get it. You have analytics, youtube is a hellscape, you need to use every trick in the book.

But I have this knee-jerk reaction that if you're going to obsess over that percentage of non-subscribers, then I will GLADLY be the one to crush you by refusing to subscribe

Xenoblade would be so much better if it wasn't horny

Like, I'm basically an anarcho-communist with a lot of fine print, I have no place in this goddamn political climate. The closest guy to my political beliefs dropped out of the primaries literally the day after I voted for him, and even he was a bit of a stretch compared to a hypothetical dream candidate. Now I'm expected to vote, even though Wisconsin is gerrymandered to all fuck and there's no way in hell we're gonna get the electorals. fuck.

I kinda just want America to stop at this point

The point here about Rent is that there are a handful of queer/poc/high-subversion musicals that have hit the popular culture sphere, and people are far more willing to defend the nostalgic ones (that have aged very poorly) over the newcomers.

It's a bombastic story with twists and turns, the music is memorable enough to hold up the show basically on its own, the choreography is clean and decisive... like, if you can wholeheartedly stan RENT in 2020, then Hamilton should be a no-brainer

Hot take: Despite everything, Hamilton is still just a really good musical

I think something is wrong with the way I take naps. I keep waking up with headaches
