Re: shitposts, it definitely strongly depends on who you follow. My home feed on mastodon is inundated with shitposts (and I like each one)

Thanks for the heads up, subscribed :) Might post a photo later.

Olivia Chow just won the Toronto by-election, so my week is off to a good start :)

Also, Pride was over the weekend, and I got a new bike.

I like new and new comments.

Sounds like that person is extremely not okay

It has been a while, but there was a time when, if I was feeling really anxious and almost panicky, a quick playthrough of Enter the Gungeon would chill me right out.

You doin ok buddy?

Tonight was trans march. Tomorrow is dyke march. Then, time to sleep :)

That’s exciting :) I definitely have a lot of nostalgia for Quake 2. The Quake 1 remaster from a little while back was really well done, and remained true to the original, so I hope this keeps that up.

Ooh thanks for pointing it out. Looks like I have it from a bundle too, haha. I will give it a read.

Congratulations :)

Buncha youngins with your GBAs.

My favourite OG gameboy game was Kirby’s Dream Land. Played and replayed it many times. Even had one of those attachments to magnify it and light up the screen when it got dark :)

Yeah! It definitely comes with a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment. I like it, too.

Old article but still true. Love boomer shooters :)

There have been open calls to “eradicate transgenderism”, along with a nearly endless amount of anti-trans legislation in many parts of the world. Their rhetoric frequently borders on genocidal. It is 100% about our right to exist.

We’re not some hypothetical to have a pleasant debate over tea about, we are real people with real lives being directly harmed by real policy. Some of us are tired of being nice about it.

Delayed siberian sweep!

That makes sense, and is understandable. I think in some cases messages might be getting lost entirely though; like, I have one post from 6 days ago that didn’t federate, for example.

Holy hell (but a day late)

Nothing wrong with being comfortable with they/them pronouns but still considering yourself cis. Labels are useful, but ultimately not important; you are you!

If you want to experiment a bit, go for it! Maybe there’s something to explore. Maybe it solidifies that you are cis. Great! A lot of people are rigid with these things, but it doesn’t have to be. Do what feels right; labels can come later, or not at all, and that is all okay :)

Looking at Steam, I’ve got 800 hours in Stellaris, 500 in Factorio, 300 in Deep Rock Galactic, and down rapidly from there. Those are outliers, I buy a lot of single player indie games in the 10 to 20 hour range. Some less than that! I think I prefer shorter games, so I can actually finish them, and try a wider variety.

Then again, I have an unknown number of hours in Doom and Doom 2, since I don’t play it on steam and have been playing it since 1995. But, I haven’t replayed the base games in years; people continue to make new maps for it, after all this time.
