@lioness I'm not sure how I'd self-identify? I know now that I'm interested in both, because of interactions with iore, but so far I can't quantify that interest beyond "yes". If we go by time spent I'd be sub-leaning, but that's for entirely practical reasons and not a preference so it doesn't ring true to me. -Cedar

@lioness It's all self-identification, isn't it? You have more energy for one, or prefer it more often, or however it makes sense for you to think about it. I've never heard of the actual time/effort/whatever spent on scenes having anything to do with it. -Mattie

@lioness You might want to add some kind of "probing" to that.

From our experience it's possible to end up in a state that's indistinguishable from laying motionless in bed, except that your senses are open to being manipulated. We tend to imagine full body movement, such as a rocking motion, to test this. If we get there, then engaging our imagination in pretty much any way will initiate a lucid dream. (Lately we imagine being upright and falling over for that part.)

Visualization progress: when one shape is partially obscured by another, we can now sort of see an outline of where the obscured part of the shape might be, as if it's a subtle difference in lighting. -Nikki

coining "hydroamory" for people who want only one partner, but are cool with their partner having other partners (after hydrogen)

@lioness There are definitely those of us here who are like that - they never seem to come out spontaneously, but they'll answer if someone talks to them. -Cedar

@hollie It's because the \ modifies the next character.

My favorite film, Everything Everywhere All At Once, is on Netflix now. In case anyone was waiting to see it.

I can now play "block faker" in game mode on my steam deck (via ruffle.js), and I've set up custom assets for it.

I have gotten way too into SteamGridDB. First just idly wondering if some game has artwork and browsing, now making my own custom artwork for an obscure game. I'm actually having fun making the silly menus look nice. -Cole

It's so much better. I'm not accidentally hitting buttons I don't intend to. There's actual resistance which makes it much easier to release buttons (doesn't require actively lifting toes). I'm actually making the inputs I intend (on my right foot at least), and it makes it so much easier.

I went offline for a bit to adjust the controller but I'm back

@hollie FWIW, we're quite certain that we'd be different when speaking Japanese because we have a specific headmate who handles that. Although, sadly, we don't know enough Japanese yet for her to really express herself. -Autumn
