80 fps with 30% cpu.

YOU'RE SLACKIN', EDI. YA SLACKIN'. WE GOTTA FIND YOU MORE WORK TO DO. and by that i mean i'm gonna finish this quest and then see about installing reshade because y not

see look at this.

My Laptop Can Do More Work.

@InspectorCaracal yeah, it is, alas :( i believe it's free-to-start up to a certain level though? and the subscription isn't that terrible (it's less than 'proper mmorpgs', and comes with a weekly allowance of the special money).

honestly i scooped up a "pay once for lifetime sub" thing awhile back which means i get to be really chill about it. no fussing about handing them money every month or guilt about "but i paid so i gotta". and i get the allowance of coins when i'm not playing so lol.

i will say that altho i appreciate my secret shame mmo keeping it rather lo-tech, even in bits they're redoing, to make it as accessible as possible so that Grandma's Old Computer can run it

i kinda wish there was... More

like... my laptop, all graphics on highest settings, is hitting 80 fps.

it can do more work.

i'm tempted to slap reshade on this and see what it do

@InspectorCaracal they used to be Much Worse (for the starter horses especially) but thankfully they've redone things significantly! i ragged on the company a whole lot about a year ago all "oh that's a lot of big talk about improving the game ya dicks where's the beef" and i'll be damned they're actually doing it lmfao

(I JUST LIKE STOMPY HORS MOAR) (but i'm glad they redid the starter horses because that's your like... 'story partner' for the story quests at some points)

@InspectorCaracal I ACTUALLY QUITE LIKE IT BUT IT'S VERY MEANT FOR LIKE 13 YEAR OLDS SO YOU GOTTA LIKE

NOT EXPECT SHAKESPEARE Y'KNOW

the starter horses are, i think, still shit, but i am also way too attached to my sport freisian, because Big Hors.... Good. Stompy Hors.... GUD.

anyway here's an ancient post on my sso tumblr showing some hors if u wanna see wat kind hors there is http://harper-deerstar.tumblr.com/post/169741020076/so-i-realize-i-havent-done-a-full-roundup-of-all

@InspectorCaracal THERE ARE EXTREMELY HORSE MMOS YES BUT STAR STABLE ONLINE IS I THINK THE BEST

MANY HORSE.

SO MANY HORSE.

@InspectorCaracal MY SECRET SHAME MMORPG THAT'S WHAT

(star stable online. it's star stable online. it's just like a line of that pure horse girl shit, cut neat.)

i was playing my secret shame mmorpg and they redid an npc and he's hot now and i am all ohno.gif about it

see picture (this does not show off his rather nice nose)

are y'all ready for an incredibly cishet moment from me

because i'm looking at myself going "wow harp. that's very het of you." right now

@lillyfox@snouts.online honestly i am so fucking thankful that apparently around the time i became diabetic, my body decided artificial sweeteners weren't migraine-worthy anymore

and it's an INCREDIBLE minefield to try and avoid them these days, too!

i mean, ultimately, am i a racist? i'm white so the answer is inevitably yes.

but i don't think my body deciding to give me a migraine after eating msg is exactly evidence of that, especially when most of the time i'm going "aw shitdicks, i knew i should've eaten only one little bag of doritos"

migraines are weird. they're just like that sometimes.

i just really wish people would stop jumping up and down ready to call someone a racist for saying "MSG gives me migraines".

migraines are weird. msg gives me migraines sometimes. no, it's not me working myself into a tizzy because i ate chinese food and hate chinese people. it's been me going "fuck, does KFC have msg in it? ...aw fuck me, it does huh" the day after eating it when half my vision is spangly sparkly bullshit.

i'm really tired of the discussion about it going totally the other way

"but it's in all of these other foods -" yeah bub, a lot of those foods are also common migraine triggers!

"but your body makes it naturally -" my dude, my body also makes hormones that cause migraines in me. that is no guarantee.

it is also true that sometimes somebody can get away with eating a little MSG and not reach that having-a-migraine level. still doesn't mean they're faking.

ok y'all

listen. i get that MSG has gotten a really bad rap. i know and understand some of that is pure racism, particularly against chinese immigrants, using bunk claims to 'other' this group and vilify them. i know that some people absolutely do make up what MSG can do and are totally lying about it.

however.

IT REALLY IS A MIGRAINE TRIGGER, AND A FAIRLY COMMON ONE AT THAT

@Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online i could actually see that working perfectly to be honest. apparently gator meat is quite tasty and mild and takes seasoning quite well

where we get into stretches are concepts like some sort of gumbo-inspired roll - okra tempura, andouille sausage, shrimp/lump crab meat, served with a brick roux based sauce...?

who needs a heating pad for cramps when you have a dog?

(dog i love you but this is slightly inconvenient. #hollypls )

y cramps tho
