@Elizafox I like how the word sounds, but I don't want to use it because the Soviet Union sucked

@vahnj gnight!

there are 2 people on my timeline with very similar icons, and I keep getting them confused and I'm scared that I'll use the wrong name/pronouns for one of them by accident

@melissasage oh, I do use discord and telegram as well, but afaik they just store what you say, they don't store your half-written messages that you erased (fb does that) or your location, and such...

I guess it's still an illusion of privacy, rather than actual proper privacy

@typhlosion happy hatch day!

@witchfynder_finder good luck~

@witchfynder_finder not super great in the morning, but I'm starting to feel better now!

how about you?

@melissasage that's actually part of why I stick to stuff that's 100% publicly accessible - it means I'm always aware that lots of people can see what I'm saying, rather than the impression you get from facebook or tinder where it feels like only a few can see you

nooooo

I just realised the "I'm hungry" "hi hungry, I'm dad" joke can't work in dapiica

::(

(it can't work because you don't say "I am _name_", you say "I name myself _name_")

Exhibit A: the industrial sized freight lift in a massive empty room with no way to get freight into
Exhibit B: a normal lift, in a reasonable room, in a reasonable location in the room

(yes, this is the SAME area)

okay, played some more black mesa:

there's a bunch of stuff they redesigned really well - for example, in the original there's a short section with a maze of vents that you have to find your way through, and it was always frustrating and confusing.

in black mesa, there's just 1 vent and it takes you straight to the next area.

a lot of other areas have been redesigned to make more sense... let me actually make a comparison picture real quick...

@Elizafox wh...

@kara_dreamer yeah, every subject decided to put all their assessments on at the same time...

maybe I'll just try to watch the lecture today? that shouldn't be too difficult...

@softgoat same!

but my problem is more "my internet speed is too slow to even stream at 144p"

@Elizafox yop

@kara_dreamer I've got 2 tests next week, a 1000 word research paper due on monday, a group project and another essay due in a couple of weeks, I have to watch a lecture, answer a few linguistics questions and do some maths

I really need to get some homework done, but I'm just feeling depressed...
