i am perhaps far more bummed out by the knowledge that my #lolitafashion april fool's joke is not going to come out in time because my back and shoulders are throwing an absolute goddamn fit and i need to draw shit to land the joke, and releasing it text-only would end up with joke sadly splatted on the ground instead of neatly touching down on runway
boo hiss bodies suck
however it is allowed to exist in splatoon because i saw somebody using it in their little splatoon art yesterday and it honestly warmed the cockles of my cold black heart. splatoon is where it is allowed to be. that is the S's native habitat.
but everywhere else is ON THIN FUCKIN ICE
confession: you know that S? the super S thing that it seems is a widespread part of kid culture you learn in elementary school?
i kinda hate it
bc my real name starts with an S and i was the kid always doodling so whenever anyone was like 'will you draw me a thing if i draw you a thing?' and i went yes, i'd draw something detailed and in-depth for them and all i'd get back is my name written with That Fucking S.
....i came in all "ok i levelled up my mods, i got stronger, i have the patience to die over and over!!! let's do this!!!" and done in a 1 min and 7 seconds.
welp.
also yes, i named my resonator ball. it is Ollie. i am going to claim that anyone in warframe who plays octavia does this, even if they're not ready to admit it yet.
good news everyone, after working several weeks at getting stronger in #warframe , being stuck on that jupiter junction with the valkyr spectre, i have a definitive new strategy!
1. be octavia
2. put on some 80's japanese disco (https://youtu.be/ZJSBAIFMMcA in this case)
3. mallet
4. resonator
5. let Ollie the Rollie just kill things for you
i'm afraid that, in my allyship, i feel compelled to make the dad joke that everyone either suspects is coming, or has heard five million times already today:
trans friends, remember to put off your bank robbing and various other heists on today, this day of trans visibility, when they can actually see you
smartassery isolated here, instead of crashing an innocent person's perfectly cromulent good time pondering seriously
however i am an extreme cynic, and i don't think i've seen an egalitarian yet who didn't choose that term to specifically say "well i want gender equality, but WITHOUT GIRL COOTIES ON IT"
usually about 3 replies before some sort of FEMINISTS ARE THE REAL SEXISM!!11!
for further wtf is clathrin, when a cell needs to make a bubble - a vesicle - for a certain purpose, like it wants stuff outside of itself to come in or vice versa, clathrin is a little twirly-three-legs dude that hooks together to help form that bubble by being the 'cage' around it.
for why i like them so much, listen, i don't even know man, i just think it's pleasingly elegant to look at, see attached meme for more information
hey if anyone here makes #jewelry, or wants to prototype something and then make your million on kickstarter or whatever, or is also just a big #biology nerd like me, please consider the following ideas:
1. a pendant of a single clathrin triskelion (bc there's someone doing the entire vesicle but IT'S 198 DOLLARS FOR THE PENDANT AND I'M POOR)
2. a desk toy that is magnetized clathrin triskelions so you can assemble and disassemble and play with them
(for wtf is clathrin, see pic)
Christianity Thought That Probably Shouldn't Be A Hot Take At All To Anyone Unless You Disagree With The Christian Ideas Presented Which Is Fair But Not The Discussion I'd Like To Have In This Moment:
if he wasnt methodist i would be campaigning everywhere for mr rogers to be canonized as a saint, because i think he's one of the few people in modern times that deserves to be so
i got the lemon mint scent and it smells like proper lemon. like actual lemon juice. not fakey lemon, or lemonade, or lemon cleaning product. it's a little amazing.
anyway if you're trying to do the #skincare thing for your dry hands but you're neurodivergent and hate sticky/greasy/creamy hands, or work in a job where it's important to grip shit - totally check the Saem hand light essence out.
i do notice i have to reapply slightly more often but it's an incredibly unique product so woah.gif
maybe someday i can actually Make Content
i've been working on a showdown of the hand creams for sweetdisabled and an interesting new contender has appeared
if you don't like your hands feeling greasy/creamy, but have dry hands - check out the Saem hand light essence.
it's like... if that hand sanitizer gel was the evil twin, this is the angelic good twin. it goes on like a gel, feels like water, melts in REALLY quick. kinda fucking baffled how it works.
a wigglytuff asks for advice among fellow discord moderators
my reasoning is that the statements go one of two ways
1. it's bullshit attention seeking, fishing for "nooo you're so greeeat please stay"
2. it's the truth, which is worse, because if the entire hobby is toxic for this person, keeping them on the server as a gateway back into those toxic behaviors is pretty fucking cruel. at that point it's clearly my onus as mod to cut them off if they're here for digital self-harm.

is 'three strikes you're out' a reasonable policy to have with flouncers
a problem user is now on flounce number two, of the "i'm quitting this hobby forever it's terrible for my mental health" type - statements always get walked back to "except for this server".
tbh if it happens a third time i am leaning towards banhammer. is this bonkers too harsh or too soft?
note it's a hobby server, not srs bzns mental support space. (cont)
