  • Imipolex, rename yourself to cookies, then Cookies and Cream.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    That is a good idea!
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    hahaha sims can use their cellphones while on the toilet

    well humans can, so that shouldn't be a surprise
  • How can emoji be skeuomorphic?  I'm not sure I understand.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    can sims accidentally drop their phones in the toilet?

    I suppose that's not a correct use of the term on my part, but they're rendered in the same art style as Apple's old skeuomorphic UIs. Detailed textures, shading, etc.

    Sims used to be able to only do one thing at once, so...
  • Ah, I get you -- not really matching the overall UI aesthetic.
  • I learned that in The Sims 3, playing the guitar in a public place makes Sims like you.

    I like that 4 de-emphasizes the need meters in favor of a more general "mood" mechanic...
  • so for about 10 minutes when we came home we were pretty sure our house was on fire. The fire department was here and our side of the street was cordoned off

    what actually happened was that our neighbor's chimney caught fire, but good lord I have not been so scared in recent memory. I don't think I've crossed myself that frantically in my entire lifetime.

    Ouch. That sounds pretty scary.

    i can imagine lan typing furiously on her smartphone
  • Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
    I am intensely angry over something stupid right now.

    Why is it that even if I know it's really stupid, I can't stop? It makes me even more angry.
  • Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
    Fuck this. If I’m angry, it’s for a damn good reason. I am perfect and I can do no wrong.

    I hate you and your stupid face and I wish you would just go the fuck away so I’d never have to listen to you ever again. Every little thing you say makes me a little more angry.

    Other people like you and I don’t understand why. You’re insufferable.

    Not directed at anyone here at all. Honest.
  • It's weird to me that Apple redesigned iOS to be all flat and minimalistic but they still use the same vaguely skeuomorphic emoji from iOS 5 and 6.

    Where's that Jobsian attention to detail?

    The funny thing is that Google and Twitter's emoji both fit the aesthetic better despite Apple's ubiquity.

    I hadn't thought of that, but yeah, that is amusing.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I am tweaking some interface things

    Heads up

    if you saw that alternative discussions page design, that was no glitch

    it was just ugly
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I missed it
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    if it bleeds, we can kill it
  • if it bleeds, we can kill it

    If it reads, we can fill it... with knowledge.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”

    YES!

    I don't mean to sound like a huge weeaboo recommending you two anime series in quick succession sans prompt, but Nichijou is hilarious even if you know nothing about the references.

    but shouldn't I finish Kaiba first or at least get a little further into it

    Probably. Kaiba is pretty short and plot-oriented, while Nichijou is more situation-based and very much episodic. If I had to make a comparison, it's like Monty Python with teenage girls and recurring characters.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
  • What is that patchi from anyways? 
  • Sup bitches, witches, Haters, and trolls.
    looks like nichijou to me just from the thumbnail
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    it's a Nichijou scene with Touhou characters
  • kill living beings
    i can't watch nichijou on crunchyroll. this is a bad day
  • this shit, that ice cold
    Michelle Pfeiffer, that white gold

    being away from most of the internet for over a week has caused me to become less thrilled with the whole enterprise

    it has?
  • More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
    Nichijou is lovely.
  • We can do anything if we do it together.
    ^^ You were thrilled?

    ^ Yeah, it is.

  • No, but I am less thrilled than I was.
  • We can do anything if we do it together.
    I didn't know that was possible, but I think I can understand.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I should clean up my desk someday
  • Well, if you picture "feelings towards a thing" as a line, with "indifference" in the middle, "dissatisfaction" on one side and "enthusiasm" on the other, i have moved further towards the dissatisfaction area than previously

    though i felt it misleading to say that i have become more dissatisfied, because i am not quite on the dissatisfaction side of the time
  • We can do anything if we do it together.
    Yeah, I getcha now.

    I'm sorry to make you spell it out, but I can be overly literal at times. 

    FWIW, I'll probably follow a similar trajectory once I actually meet up with SFS.
  • Sup bitches, witches, Haters, and trolls.
    the trajectory i follow with buttercup is to still spend too much time on the internet
  • It's less to do with getting to hang out with the beau and more to do with "not going on tumblr for long enough for me to re-acclimate to how people actually function with one another"
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    here I am still my nerdy old self

    but yeah I've developed a distaste for Tumblr culture too
  • We can do anything if we do it together.
    Yeah, I'll probably still be on the Internet all the time when I'm with dear.

    I've just kinda grown weary of the crushing cynicism and negativity that seems to permeate much of it, and I feel bad about letting myself be as consumed by it as I was in 2013/early 2014. I feel that I'll have even less patience for it once I'm actually physical contact with her.
  • it's self absorbed, self pitying nerds all the way down tbh
  • BLOGGIN AINT GONNA SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS BRUH
  • We can do anything if we do it together.
    pretty much, yeah
