THE SUPER PACK DESIGNS ARE SO PRETTY HOLY SHIT 👏😭

I'm assuming the artwork is done by iXima, it doesn't specify but I know they do they official box art.

I think out of all of them, Luka's design has to be my absolute favourite. It's nice that each outfit is a mixture of voicebanks, but Luka's being mainly her V2 outfit has my HEART. I have always loved Vocaloid 2 Luka, she's beautiful in every way. So, this? Oh my god, I have to cosplay it.

Oh, hey, hey there! Hello! Sorry to bother you. Yeah I'll be out of your DMs in just a second. Yeah it's just I was passing by and realized the way you're expressing your gender or sexuality really doesn't cohere with the way that my extremely insular groupthink faction of the internet thinks gender and sexuality should be expressed. What you're doing is really problematic actually, given how much it really doesn't gel with how my group thinks gender and sexuality need to work. I just wanted to give you a friendly heads up and give you the chance to change before I do anything like call you out publically.

Oh what's that? If you change what you're doing to satisfy me, then a completely different extremely insular groupthink circle of the internet will be mad at you instead? Yeah that's completely true. Luckily this is easy! My groupthink's group-think is the correct and progressive one. Their groupthink's group-think is really problematic and narrow-minded. I hope this helps?

Oh you're still doing what you're doing. :/ Okay man it's just that there's kids in my group, you know? Teens. They're literally kids, and you're making them super uncomfortable because we told them to be uncomfortable. Won't you think of the kids? This argument has never once backfired on a member of the queer community.

Oh. Okay. Well, I mean I was being really polite and respectful and you've just been rude so. Tell you what. If in 5 years from now the narrative has shifted such that the common queer community now supports what you're doing, I'm gonna act like I actually always supported this and have always been on your side. That's a good compromise right? Cool.

Anyway, I think that's totally fair of me. I'm gonna go warn everyone I know about how you're an unsafe person to interact with. This is for protection of the queer community. I'm a very good person.

Not having a job is not a moral failure. Being a "basement dweller" is not a moral failure. Neither is living with your parents or being dependent on your family or partner(s) or being housebound.

Capitalism has tricked you into believing that your only value in this world is how much money you can make for someone else. It has also tricked you into seeing "unproductive" people, especially disabled people, as drains on a society literally built to help take care of them.

Jobless people are not your enemies. Disabled people are not your enemies. Get over yourself.

Sueños de piedra (ch1)

Okay, I promised (to myself) to check out whatever media won the ultimate obscure blorbo tournament ( @who-do-i-know-this-man (I wasn't sure whether to tag you or not but in the end I figured I might as well, hope you don't mind I guess))

Turns out that it's a guy from a 2015 Spanish YA fantasy book

And turns out there's a free sample available! Which is lucky for me because I'm currently very broke

Sueños de piedra by Iria G. Parente and Selene M. Pascual

I don't speak Spanish so I'm gonna rely on the translator quite a lot lmao (well I understand some Spanish actually, but definitely not enough to read a whole book)

The title translates to something like "Dreams of Stone" I think?

Once upon a time in a kingdom far, far away, a prince rewarded a wizard for helping rescue a young girl in trouble. Charming. Too bad none of this is true. In reality, the prince dreams of glory and revenge; the magician, with her spells not always being a disaster and the young woman in trouble, with fleeing from a past that torments her... and from the memory of the man she has killed. Once upon a time...

(Yes this is just Google Translate, sorry)

Okay so, prince, magician and a damsel in distress? Prince wants revenge for something, who knows what, magician is having trouble doing the magic, and the damsel is in fact a killer? Ok ok

The dedication goes as follows:

To all those who embark on a direct journey towards their dreams every day. May you always reach your destination.

Okay so Marabilia is a place? That's apparently also the name of this book series. Is this like the kingdom then? So it consists of three islands, two small ones and one big? Or is it supposed to be a continent? It definitely seems too small to be a continent

I know the blorbo is called Arthmael de Silfos so I'm guessing he's from the Silfos area in the north of the big island then. I can see what's probably a city called Duan and a forest called "Merlon Forest". We also have different towers around the big island, one of which seems to be called the Tower of Black Magic. (I didn't even need to use the translator for those yay xD)

Okay the first chapter is called Arthmael so I guess we're meeting our blorbo already, which is nice

— Let me make it clear: are you going to give my crown to a bastard?

Okay..... the very first line and I already think Arthmael might be a bit of a spoiled brat (I assume he's in fact the prince)

Apparently Arthmael just found out that he has an illegitimate older brother but I guess this brother's mother is noble anyway so it's legit? I dunno yet. Arthmael thinks this guy is blackmailing his father somehow and is already considering poison as a solution

And anyway, what kind of a name is Jacques for a king?

lmao, so much shade to all the kings called Jacques

For those wanting to know a bit about our winner^

(Ps never worry about tagging me in something. It's always a pleasure)

OKAY HI IT'S ME I SUBMITTED ARTHMAEL

couple things:

  • the wizard is a boy and his name is Hasan
  • Lynne is in fact the damsel in distress and i love her very much
  • marabilia is in fact a place, yes. it's a bunch of kingdoms that agree to be nice to each other because they share continent
  • the fantasy in these books is all about the vibes so don't think too hard about the worldbuilding and magic system (there are five of them) (the first four are mostly standalones but the last one requires you to read all of them)
  • if anyone else is gonna read this please look up trigger warnings or ask me about them because it's not all sunshine and roses

about why i submitted arthmael:

he's just so fun. his whole attitude is hilarious as is his journey because oh honey you got a big storm coming. and then he grows and learns so much but keeps being snarky and fun. also he's the ultimate simp. and his and lynne's story is the only one that has made me cry and sob like the world was ending when they experienced joy, so there's that too

I also took the liberty of commenting on some of the things OP said too because this reaction was very fun to read

And here's some more info from the person who submitted him ^

AI engagement bots on twitter are fascinating because they tweet exactly like some 2008 buzzfeed exec's idea of what tweeting is

as opposed to the way actual human beings behave on social media:

when i was working at tumblr in the yahoo days the general vibe was "dont identify as staff unless you're ready to deal with hate mail". and that vibe is true (also mostly why i didnt talk about it until i left)

some staff members got more brave about it, and you have to take the heat or stay out of the kitchen. even on normie sites you're gonna get users telling you to kill yourself. tumblr's no different

for the ceo of tumblr it was unavoidable. karp took the heat. donofrio stayed out of the kitchen.

mr. mullenweg seems to be unable to take it or stay out. the vibe i heard from the inside seems like other people have the same issues with internet teens sending anon "kys" messages

since the effort to change internet culture at large is Sisyphean compared controlling your own behavior, my advice is to take the heat or stay out of the kitchen
