Been watching a 4k upscale of Transformers: Animated because it's the only version i could find that doesn't have audio issues. Unfortunately the AI doesn't really understand the simple artstyle and will fuck up the details half of the time.

Also i am very much disappointed we never got that 4th season.

I'm sick of people on this got damn website acting like we trans folk (or LGBT folk as a whole) are some got damn borg like hivemind. For some fucking reason it's always with the LGBT centric topics, certain folk (especially certain users whom I will not outright name) keep acting like a few idiots on sites like Twitter represent the community as a whole. Yet I bet if I said some shit like "all white people are bad because of the KKK or Hitler" I'd RIGHTFULLY be called out as an absolute idiot for judging an entire demographic based on a handful of assholes.

I legit feel like this site is slowly (emphasis on slowly) becoming more hostile to folk like myself, mainly in the primary comments sections where the up-to-downvote ratios on certain comments that are explicitly about LGBT topics are becoming increasingly more and more concerning. And I do wonder if it could be because even on this website folk like myself are an even bigger minority than we are IRL, like I REALLY REALLY hate to say this sentence because it makes me sound absolutely arrogant, but I legit feel like because there's not many other users like myself on this site, there's too many non-LGBT folk who have no idea what struggles people like me go through who are doing a poor job properly empathizing with people like me. I am a firm believer that everyone should have a voice and I'm not going to say non-LGBT folk can't have a say on certain topics (like I once spoke to one user who even outright told me something along the lines of "I live in a country where LGBT issues are rarely ever talked about so I don't get the big deal"), but I think the lack of empathy that does result from not being part of a minority group is what is starting to bother me. Like all I really want is some love and understanding, to be treated fairly, even if paradoxically acknowledge I technically still have my own culture.

Fuck… I also absolutely hate, hate, hate saying this but maybe asking for empathy is too much and I should just "go be with my people," segregate myself from much of the internet at large. Maybe trying to be part of "the whole" is simply too much for me, I'm only exhausting myself.

I went to Miku Expo in LA. I originally had tickets for San Jose, but sold them for a huge loss after they suddenly added an LA show. It was surprisingly packed for being a last minute addition and on a weekday of all things which is annoying. I had fun, but this will forever be marked as the infamous expo.

There was considerable controversy over the tour forfeiting the typical "hologram" performance in favor of using a giant led screen. The staff touched it up the lighting a bit and pushed the screen further away over the negative feedback, but it's still sticks out like a sore thumb, killing the immersion. Granted, they're some advantages over using a screen, but now seeing it in person, it pales in comparison to earlier concerts. Even in the vip seats, It's just not as good to put it bluntly. I sincerely hope this doesn't become a trend with Crypton going forward. Curiously, they also didn't use their in-house band, MKP39, but local talent for the live music. Not that it mattered, they were great, but something off I noticed. I think they're biting more than they can chew with performing in Coachella + 17 cities which forced them to make these compromises.

Set list was also kinda meh.

I'm very tired of various official bot and staff accounts mass-posting tons of r/All grade A reddit slop. A popular subreddit is not a meme, it has no spread or evolution of the idea.

I got banned from instagram recently. Probably because their AI mods (lol) didn't like me logging into a different computer.
There is absolutely NO WHERE to contact support. And because I didn't link my phone with instagram, I basically have no options other than to make a new one.

I am so sick of cheap ass megacorps making customer support labyrinthine or downright non-existent.

A few months ago, I tried to log back into an old IG account, but because I logged into it from a different state, they wanted me to verify through the associated gmail that no longer exists. Instagram's "suggestion" to me was to change the email while logged in. Y'know, the one I can't access in the first place..

Okay, I can just contact Google's customer support about getting the email reinstated so I can get the IG account back, right?Nah, they don't have a customer support either. The closest thing they have to it is a community forum that pretty much just parrots what you've already read for whatever issue you were having.

Utterly fucking useless.

The older I get, the more I find the concept of group identity to be existentially horrifying, and the less comfort I find in ideas such as a body of like people or being a part of a greater whole.

This is very "edgy depressive 14 year old" of me, but I hate being antisocial… or at least, I hate feeling wrong for being antisocial?

I always thought that I was unhappy and a loner just because I didn't know how to socialize. And now that I know how to interact with people, do small talk, big talk, body language, sound confident… I made lots of new friends… and it makes me wish to go back in being a loner again.

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to realize this, and I'm no longer sad for thinking I'm some lonely loser… but now I just have this feeling of "being wrong" whenever I am alone, like I just keep thinking "why are you here alone on a friday night, you can hangout with any person just by calling them", and I could, I really could.. but I just much prefer having a "me time" overall.

Maybe this feeling is a bit clichê, but still, I just can't accept that I'm happy being lonely. I'm """sad""" for being happy lol.

It's perfectly fine to prefer enjoying "me time" over hanging out with friends, there isn't a mandate or an obligation to only enjoy "alone time" as a last resort. On a positive note, think that you now have the option to choose between friends and being by yourself, which is a choice you didn't have before.

I have said something similar to this before, but I will say it again. 

I love Hololive, but I hate their game selection. I hate how they specifically go for safe and mainstream titles and would almost never touch an indie or any lesser-known game with a ten-inch pole. But I specifically hate it when it's made very obvious that the game has been practically forced on them by the staff. I am referring to those "meme" games, which are often times janky and poorly made on purpose or are made with a specific goal to create frustration for the players, like "Getting Over It." And no, you are not convincing me otherwise on this. The very fact that literally all the members have played it proves that it was practically forced on them, and for no other reason than to get funny reactions out of them and generate quick revenue out of something that has been repeated so many times. And now another game has been forced on them, this time "Bunny Garden," a completely barebones, boring dating sim whose only value here seems to be to force the members into awkward situations and them reacting to all the "so lewd" stuff in the game (which are nothing truly special as far as NSFW content in these types of games go) and constantly screaming "yabai!." Don't get me wrong, even though I still love them a lot and would never abandon them (Hololive is one of, if not the best, YouTube companies), but this really annoys me.

I went to comic shops and Barnes & Nobles to look for some cool manga at their manga sections and what I mostly find was either aisles being full of isekai or the most popular Jump manga. It wasn't frustrating at first, but when I want to read mecha manga, my only choice is to order online or check out scanlation groups.
But what really gets me is that It's hard to find many Toku or Mecha based manga, it's not that they don't exist but because scanlators won't touch many of them.
There's tons and tons of different manga about SD Gundams with complete volumes for example, yet none were picked up. Meanwhile some manga adaptation of an isekai light novel gets picked up the day chapter one gets published with the most boring copy-paste artstyle and synopsis that's in a lot of Light Novels.
I don't mean to hate isekai or anything, people can be free to enjoy them. It's one thing for folks to sleep on an anime, at least fans can still enjoy them, but manga and novels be damned if they never get translated because they aren't a popular genre like isekai or owned by Jump.

I guess I need to vent.
I lost my dog a year after my father died of Diabetes. My dog died of an ear infection we couldn't cure. I saw both my father and my dog convulse and die in-front of me. I thought I was desensitized to death or gore, but seeing them die like that broke me. Its been really hard to recover both mentally, physically, and financially. We had set up a donation page for my father, but only received 20 dollars. That would be fine, but he not only left us in debt, he had done horrible things throughout his life that I really don't want to get into. I keep asking myself, why do I grieve for someone who never loved me, abused me verbally and physically, and ruined the lives of my family.
Yet I miss him.

Vent threads are sorta cool.
When I was in elementary school I was using the bathroom. I don't remember how old I was, but a woman had entered the bathroom. She started checking the stalls, I guess to see if anyone else was there. I didn't think much of it because I was a kid and she seemed nice. She walked up to me and started talking to me about school things, nothing really specific. She then told me that she had a present for me and that to see it we had to go into one of the stalls. At the time I didn't have friends and never received gifts, so I was excited! I followed her into the stall and she locked the door behind her.

I asked about the gift and she told me to take a seat on the toilet, so I did. She proceeded to unbutton my pants. At first I was worried, but she told me to calm down and not talk. She started touching my penis without my permission. It was uncomfortable, so I told her to stop. She hit me it the face and told me to stop talking.

She then proceeded to rape me. I don't remember how long it was or why she choose me, but she did horrible things to me. When she was finished with me she told me to stay in the stall and not speak to anyone about this, or else she would kill my family. She left and I sat in the stall for what feels like forever, hoping she would not hurt my family.

After that I never spoke to anyone about it out of fear, until yesterday when I was talking to a close friend about it. They laughed and said I should have been stronger, and that I should have fought more. I felt so hollow after they said that, like it was my fault for being raped. I told them to get out and spent the night crying. I ended up breaking my phone out of rage/sadness.

I don't know what to feel or who to turn to. I've tried therapy and nothing seems to work. I have no friends, two family members, and no drive in life. I'm stuck mentally in that bathroom stall. Its affected my life and relationships. I can't use public restrooms, I don't trust being alone with women, and it has ruined the idea of sex for me. She stole my virginity in elementary school and I have nothing left.

I'm useless.

The Long 2014 meme fucking stinks specifically because it's only ever used by people who are and still are on one side of the issue and dislike it simply because of the memes directed against them, and if something appears that is directed against the opposite side, they will never bring it up.

I stopped browsing this site around the end of last year. As much as I like the funny memes I didn't notice how much all the constant bad news, culture wars drama and endless internet celebrity BS was starting to affect me negatively. I get it's increasingly difficult to live outside of the cesspool of social media, but if you're terminally-online like me, don't forget to come out for air at least every once in a while. I know I will.

I think i can finally say with full confidence that Eurovision has officially jumped the shark.

Ok, yesterday I told you Eurovision had jumped the shark. After seeing the finals, it turns out that that statement was an understatement. They didn't just jump the shark; they jumped it, grabbed it by the tail, and flung it all the way to Saturn. 

Like, ok, I have heard multiple times about accusations of bias and rigging in Eurovision, but this one was definitely the most blatant one. With the winner being Switzerland and its boring pop-rap, and the third one being France and its equally boring ballad, the truth is that most songs qualified as boring, but at least one managed to qualify as downright hideous and offensive in its shittiness, that being Ireland of all places and its very obviously anorexia-inflicted female Marilyn Manson wannabe. Not all of the songs were shitty, though there actually were some pretty good ones, around seven in fact, which was a huge step forward from the previous context, which had only three. Those being Armenia's, Austria's (I legit can't wrap my head around how this one ended up being disqualified so early for me; this was the best one), Cyprus's, Estonia's, Georgia's, Luxembourg's, and Croatia's, which actually got second place and seriously should have been the winner. 

What a shitshow!

I've bitched about it before here but the "Wow! Cool robot!" meme is shit. Utterly despise it.

"My [subjective] opinion is the correct one"
"I'm better than everyone else because I understand subtext/'''media literacy''' "
"A [political/racial/etc] perspective is the only/most correct one"
"Subtext trumps all, including entertainment value"
"I want this media to be about ____, so I'm going to declare it's about _____"

Sure, you can use it beyond the aforementioned ways. But frankly that's rare in practice.

I hate that I cant escape people's political opinions. Yeah I know that is hipocritical of me to say I still mean it.

There are times I just want to laugh at some memes in some other website and often…you cant, some asshole is taking the opportunity to start preaching their ideology.

Any meme reddit that hasnt been taken over by the left will instead have a bunch of rightwing assholes taking the opportunity to spread their own gospel instead, sometimes I just want to laugh at dumb shit and not deal with people's bullshit.

I really hate the consequences smartphones have had on society and technology.

Nowadays you're expected to own a smartphone and have it with you at all times. For most jobs or services it's all but mandatory to have both a phone and a valid phone number. So you're pretty much expected to be available at a moment's notice. Social media platforms love this because they know how addictive it is for people to constantly check for new notifications. A ton of sites use bell icon or bell sounds for notifications, almost like an ironic reminder of the Pavlovian conditioning they have on people.

The rise of smartphones also allowed Apple and Google to become the monolithic tech giants they are today, with all the negatives about it. Google Chrome became the dominating browser at around the time smartphones became mainstream, now they're trying to use that fact to push their agenda and do shady things like neuter ad blockers. Who could've known that having the company that serves you ads also making your browser could cause a conflict of interest?

Web designers are often willing to break a perfectly good web design on PC to make it more "mobile friendly", even at the cost of functionality.

And of course there's the effect of smartphones on the gaming market. Need I say anything about it?

But personally, to me the worst part is how extremely creepy how it's been normalized to have a device that watches and listens to you at every moment and sends that data to who knows where or who. And if you point that out most people will call you paranoid or just say "eh, whatever" and keep browsing whatever brainrot slop TikTok or Instagram is feeding them at that moment.

After watching a left leaning but also very sex positive take on Stellar Blade (it's a video by a person who enjoys games like Bayonetta, Nier Automata, Oneechanbara, and Senran Kagura, and whom also highly disagrees with Anita Sarkeesian) the more I'm like "so wait, why exactly was THIS game suddenly the one the anti-SJW grifter crowd decided to gravitate towards and not games like the aforementioned Bayonetta?" The person in question did say they do think Stellar Blade is indeed a good game, but said they found EVE to be a really bland character and the game doesn't even have fun with her sexuality in the same way Bayonetta does, nor does it sound like EVE grows as a character in the same way 2B does, so it feels like a game where people are ultimately left going "so what was the point of propping this game up as the bastion of sex positivity in modern gaming when the main character is the game's weakest aspect?" Like I don't doubt there are sex negative people who complained about EVE's character design (I did indeed see a few), but I'm starting to feel it was really only places like Kotaku that bitched and moaned the loudest and this created a "mountain out of a molehill" situation. Why the fuck are we still giving Kotaku any relevance to begin with? Just let them die in obscurity.

Now I do still fully plan on buying Stellar Blade once I see it on discount as I do want to experience it for myself, especially for the combat and world design, and tbh I do want to play dress up with EVE even if it sounds like she's not a very interesting protag (I saw one goth/emo looking outfit that made me go "YES YES YES GIVE ME RIGHT NOW!"), but it sounds like all this culture war shit was all for naught with this game.

I also hate how smartphones have made zoomers and young people technically illiterate and ruined their attention spans. Lot of them don't even know how basic stuff like how folders work and don't know how to use and install any more complex programs when Play store lets them install anything with one click. I am pretty sure that physical media and torrenting will die in my life time when all young people use streaming services.
I really don't think kids below 15 should have access to tablets or smartphones without parental guidance at least, I got my first smartphone in high school and I'm glad for that. I can't imagine how fucked up gen alpha is going to be.

Also I am starting to believe that SEO was the worst thing to happen to the internet, this shit is killing independent websites and every time I try to look up something on Google I get either something from reddit or AI generated garbage.

It's been confirmed that one of the playable protags in the newest Assassin's Creed game, Shadows, will be Yasuke, a retainer to Oda Nobunaga who is often sited as being the one and only time a person of African descent became a samurai (or close to one). While I think it's pretty cool to see such an historical figure in Assassin's Creed (and it kinda mirrors how the first Nioh had the protag be a fictional take on William Adams, one of the only white Europeans to earn the title of samurai), just constantly remembering this is a Ubisoft game makes me worry the game will have something about it fucked up badly. Plus my interest in "Assassin's Creed but set in ancient Japan" was basically satisfied with Ghost of Tsushima so it's hard to feel much, if any, hype for this series I used to absolutely love, which of course sucks.

I'm frankly surprised anyone is even considering buying an Ubisoft game at this point.

I think Ubi is genuinely talented, when they want to be and their post-launch support is generally commendable. But they ruin so much goodwill with their myriad of monetization strategies and cookie cutter complacency when it comes to game design. But when they break out their mold, they are capable of genuine hitters. I was one of the fans really liked the new direction they took with AC with Origins after the series was run into a brick wall of stagnation. But then they just ran the new AC formula once more into said wall with Odyssey and Valhalla they course corrected with Mirage after fans complained of the excessive bloat of the former. Hopefully with this upcoming Shadows, Ubi finds a new balance that is once again refreshingly fun. Well, before they inevitably run that too into the ground.

I don't have a problem with the creative part at Ubisoft, I think even the generic open world design it gets so much criticism can be enjoyable to some extent. It's the greedy corporate part that puts me off. Not just the microtransactions. Things like removing games from people's accounts even after they become unplayable is incredibly scummy. At least to me the company is in my "don't give them a single cent" list right next to companies such as Konami and Blizzard.

My discord account got disabled for no apparent reason. I must of tripped some automated system. I will be waiting god knows how long until I get unbanned

I hate how all VNs with sexual content are labelled eroge. Mainly because most people seem to understand that means "porn game."

There's a big difference between something like Katawa Shoujo and KuroInu. They shouldn't be grouped together. It'd be like saying Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is hentai because there's nudity in it.

I can't fucking stand discussing anime on the internet. Or at least on anime centric communities.

Everywhere I go I see people complaining. Doesn't matter the series. Doesn't matter the season. Doesn't matter the quality. It seems like there's always vocal people who need the world to know why this is shit or why they don't like it. Sometimes for very stupid reasons.

Hell, I remember being on MAL and seeing a discussion(or maybe it was a review) about shield hero season 3. This one jackass one complaining about how shield hero turned to shit after a couple episodes….[b]back in season 1![/b] I just can't wrap my head around this. Hating an entire show and still complaining about it 3 seasons later. It's just so stupid.

the vivian thing is such a nothingburger of a controversy, but it makes me realize how tired i am of everything and how cynical i've gotten towards video game communities for years now. literally a character no one really cared much about before (or at least, not to the same extent) gets a lot of sudden scrutiny and attention because of removed 4kids style censorship.

i've also wanted to play thousand year door for a few years now but never got to it, never had the original for gamecube and i'm somewhat inclined to get the remake but now i feel… weirdly apprehensive because i have no idea what other changes they would have made (unrelated to vivian), and i have no idea what to base it off of because i never played the original. like if they nerfed it or took out other stuff, and i don't feel like being spoiled. i want to "just enjoy things" but i just feel cynical towards most remakes in general now.

maybe i'm just complaining about nothing and its actually worth the $60, the paper cutout style actually looks cute. old man yells at cloud.

Couldnt you just emulate the GC one?

Remakes are simple in theory: Take a game, redo its graphics, remix the music, add new features on top of existing content. Done. New generations get to experience the game and older ones relive a favorite. No need to change the art style. No need to change the dialogue, and if changed, no need to change the underlying context of the game.

So why is it seemingly so difficult for companies to make good remakes? Capcom understood it in the early 90s with the first RE remake. More recently Activision of all companies understood it with the Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy. You can play all three games as Coco, that's genuinely a great change, but the underlying game was mostly unchanged. That's awesome. But if you're going to vastly alter the core gameplay, rewrite the dialogue, redesign the characters and change their personalities to something unrecognizable then have the decency of marketing it as a new game instead of selling it as a remake. Yes, many years later I'm still extremely bitter about Resident Evil 3 remake and hearing about the possibility of a new RE1 remake just makes my blood boil.

Speaking of which, does anyone know if Persona 3 Reloaded is worth it or should I stick to FES and Portable?

I played the remakes of RE2, RE3 and RE4 and of those three i only played the original RE4, so i don't have the nostalgia bias for RE3 to compare with the remake, but it seems you're bitter about precisely the only "sucky" remake that is sandwiched between two, in my opinion, awesome games.

Arent you mostly describing a remaster? I think remakes come in way too many sizes, some find the opportunity to do more with their product, but that has the chance to fumble for some fans.

Also yeah, everyone always complains that RE3 is kinda sucky while praising 2 and 4, so it feels like only that one missed the mark imo, people were pre complaining about RE4 possibly not being good and people now seem to love it.

Thought about it but my computer can sometimes get finicky emulating games that are more complex than basic rpgs. Tbh what I think I should have done is buy a physical copy, whether it was the remake or original. My brother has my old Wii and I think he has my old Gamecube as well so I'd have to ask him about having that. (Although in the past he cared a lot less about preserving old things, but he's an adult now so I'd have to really ask if everything is in tact.)

I played the remakes of RE2, RE3 and RE4 and of those three i only played the original RE4, so i don't have the nostalgia bias for RE3 to compare with the remake, but it seems you're bitter about precisely the only "sucky" remake that is sandwiched between two, in my opinion, awesome games.

I didn't play RE4 remake, but I did play RE2 remake. It is a great game and I really wanted to love it but I didn't like many of the changes. I guess it's because I was expecting something closer to the original RE1 remake, which is to be the way a remake should be done. The cheesy live-action cutscenes were redone with CGI, the terrible translation and amateur voice acting were also completely reworked (though some elements like the intro cutscene are almost completely identical). But the gameplay itself remained very close to the original. Some areas of the mansion were expanded, puzzles were reshuffled, but it still feels like the same game, only with extra content like the Lisa Trevor subplot (one of the best in the series in terms of horror). And they added extra mechanics that just made it a better horror game, like zombies reviving into Crimson Heads if their bodies aren't burned or their heads aren't destroyed.

RE2 remakes changes all cutscenes and omits some of them. The base gameplay is totally different. Character designs were altered, some for better and some for worse. But the dialogue is completely different. Some locations were cut from the game, enemy types are missing, some bosses are a lot more gimmicky. And characterization was also changed. RE3 remake is much worse in this aspect as characters are the same in name only.

I think the point I'm trying to make is that if the game is going to have so many changes that it looks and plays like a completely different game maybe it should have been a new game. It feels to me quite cynical to reuse characters and setting from an existing game and drastically changing them to use nostalgia and recognition a selling point. Then again, this is probably just a case of "old woman yells at cloud" as referenced by another poster. I'm extremely biased because the original RE2 was the game that got me into gaming in the first place.

Arent you mostly describing a remaster? I think remakes come in way too many sizes, some find the opportunity to do more with their product, but that has the chance to fumble for some fans.

A remaster usually means upscaling the old game, polishing it up a bit and releasing it. Remakes are done from the scratch. That's why I brought up the N.Sane Trilogy. Spyro Reignited is also same. They're new games on a new engine made to recreate the original PS1 games with modern graphics.

I cannot be the only who feels dissatisfied with life here. Anyway, I have been dealing depression from how little I have accomplished in life and a general fear of aging--along with my loneliness.

So

I've been lowkey having a panic attack over Project 2025 because it goes against quite literally everything i stand for, and what other people (including republicans) stand for.

Not only would it turn the US into a puritan place, it'd also take away A LOT of rights and casually toss out any thing that fights global warming, and I'm TERRIFIED that there's people who're lobbying for this.

I'm scared that if it goes through I'll be stuck here with nowhere to go

I consider myself a creative person. I always enjoy creating, whether it's drawing or writing or that kind of stuff. But it's also very difficult for me to share my work with others because I always feel it's not good enough.

I have published a few stories and some of my artwork on the Internet a few times and gotten some generally positive feedback. People have told me they like it and enjoy it. It's always a nice feeling, but rather than boosting my confidence it gives me "impostor syndrome" kind of feelings, that it was some fluke and that I still need to get better. That makes it even harder to share my work again.

I can relate to feeling like my work not being good enough. Of course, my issues are working too slowly and my work being ignored. Also, I have seen many mediocre artists and writers find success. I'm sure that you are more talented than the likes of Rob Liefeld, Ken Penders, Shad Brooks, and Stephanie Meyer (at least I hope so). In fact, I've heard people say that Isaac Asimov wasn't that good at writing characters--with his work being carried by his technical knowledge.

This is a really weird pet peeve but it's a pet peeve that keeps scratching at my brain, and once looking at it, can't unscratch. I wouldn't care much about this except for this ONE detail.

So ranting about mascot horrors has been done to death. But I realized that through most of them, practically all of them look as if they actually fit in their respective environment. Like, Five Nights at Freddy's has Chuck E Cheese type mascots, Bendy and the Ink Machine is based on the rubber hose animation era.

Indigo Park has a very 2010-2020 stylized mascot in an abandoned Walt Disney theme park. Like, I literally thought it was some furry type reaction video when I saw the raccoon in a thumbnail. And the same design seems to be used for the merchandise, amusement park signs, statues, etc.

I can't help but think, why? There's no faster way to break immersion than to use the wrong art style. Even if you wanted to use a more recent era, why not a 90's-early 2000's Disney style? Having an abandoned park using an art style that became popular less than a decade ago makes no sense. If you look at parks like Disneyworld they still mostly use the art style of their older eras for their mascots, and especially things like statues.

Anyway it just made me realize how much this genre uses nostalgia to partially lure people in, and how easy it is to quickly flub it.

Here in Canada, you cannot legally call your product ice cream unless it has a certain percentage of milk fat.

During the pandemic a lot of ice cream companies lowered the milkfat, replacing them with "frozen dessert" products. I don't know about anyone else but I can definitely tell the difference. It still triggers me to this day.

It's bothering the absolute hell out of me phrenology of all fucking things has made a comeback among certain groups of people. The biggest one right now are far right grifters who keep accusing female game characters of having "man faces" all because they have a strong jawline or high cheek bones. Mother fucker have you never seen 00s era Angelina Jolie or 70s and 80s Sigourney Weaver? Also I'm becoming convinced a lot of these people would totally be calling Alien, Aliens, or Terminators 1 and 2 "woke garbage" if they released nowadays.

Like right now I'm seeing these rage bait grifters doing this with reboot Joanna Dark, who really looks completely fine to me and is closer to her N64 appearance than the one in Zero.

"Course you'd say that, you have the brainpan of a stagecoach tilter!"

So it's been a year since I graduated and I still don't have a job. I will admit I fucked up during my time at college and have a poor GPA because of it. But I got back up and finished my EE degree. I even got an internship which looks nice on my resume. Yet every fucking time the company I apply to blows me off, slams the door in my face, or tell me maybe and check back in a few months.

Years ago I saw a meme of Ant-man saying he's an engineer and he'll easily find a job, only for the next panel to be him working at Baskin Robins. I was fearful I would be in that exact position, and every day that fate looks more and more like it will be mine.

It pains me every time I find an artist and their only website is twitter.

Not because it's a dogshit website for art (it is) but because accounts can be annihilated at a whim. And if someone's following more than a handful of people, the chances of finding that artist again is slim.

I fucking hate how heroes warp the entire game around them in battlefront 2.
If your heroes are ass or don't feel like dealing with other heroes, you're gonna lose. Even if a team would lose anyways, heroes are the snowball mechanic which prevents any chance of a comeback.

The best iteration was always the OG: Controlled by NPCs exclusively.

Remember what I say about a couple of months ago in here about my nasal disease?.. well I did three month daily flushing, but it appears that the structure of my nasal was form in a way that it's hard for the solution to properly flush out. So yeah, I have to take a nasal surgery. which was yesterday.

I gotta to say, when I was finally awake my body feels like it's about to collapse. it took me a while to actually stand up on my feet without the verge of vomiting. The most pain I gotten was my arms due to the position I was laying during the anesthetic. actually, my arms keep hurting by any force and/or movement and yeah even typing this comment is hurting me. besides that, having to breather out of my mouth for the next two weeks is going to be a pain in the ass, especially during summer. at least there was no risk of brain injury, besides the possible white brain cells dripping out my nose at the moment. but I've been having nosebleeds all day which the doctors told me that if I was over bleeding I need to head to the nearest ER.

I might as well took some time off to rest. I'm pretty much couldn't do anything at the moment.

I really dislike the "uwu" kinda memes that furries usually do, where they take sexy things and try to make them needlessly cutesy, like the "boykisser" meme. STOP INFANTILIZING SEX FFS YOU MAKE YOURSELF LOOK LIKE A PEDO.

i'll just link my opinion of the boykisser meme
