Ending-project-blues is common even outside of writing. You spend enough time on something and it feels really melancholic to say goodbye. It happens to me for programming projects and back when I did community theatre. Not surprised it’s happening to you esp. with how long you’ve spent on this

Go into the bathroom at 6am, finish within 2 minutes, and then I leave the room and my gf is sitting staring directly at me in the darkness. I jump and have a lil screm, and then the moment I land I jump and screm a *second* time lmfao First time in my life I’ve ever been double-scared……..

In the meantime in the past month, I've been working on other things in an attempt to get money elsewhere, but it hasn't gotten anything yet. On the upside, it's using the same tech as fluff4.me, so I have some fixes and upgrades to port back over :3 will be continuing dev there this month!

Reposting because we still need like $7k before the end of the year >.< If we can get through this we'll be okay, it's all the fault of a couple years of tax debt buildup + the ridiculous cost of my next visa application. If you'd like to help my PayPal is `paypal.nz@chiri.works`

Hard (ish) numbers on plugs to allow better comparing choices in isolation. I don't tend to fully read the descriptions to understand functionality, I often have an easier time parsing the Bungie tooltips for that, but they don't provide the numbers like you do

Also if anyone wants to hire me for programming work, get in touch, my email is chiri@chiri.works. I can do whatever you need and I have an extreme work ethic. Note that I can't do contract work — whatever I'd be paid would be double taxed — so for any work I'll need to actually be an employee

You can send us money directly via Lumina's PayPal: paypal.nz@luminamystere.works My deadline is somewhere around October-November. If we don't have the money by then I'll probably have to go back to the US

I really hate to keep asking this kind of thing but we still desperately need help. If you can please consider supporting the writing website we've been working on: fluff4.me/fundraiser Between taxes and my next visa application, we need about $8k USD more so I can stay in NZ with my polycule

If you can spare the time, money, or a repost, we'd really appreciate the help keeping fluff — and by extension, our polycule — off the ground:

Fanfiction is allowed? I’m not sure what you mean. When you asked in discord I saw it two hours later and told you it was with some more information. Did you happen to not see my messages after you asked?

Also as a side note, it's quite possible anything I make that does that kind of stuff isn't even a neural network *because* training neural networks is expensive. It could be as simple as manually putting together a word bank with weights to help with early detection of stuff that needs moderation
120
Chiri Vulpes @chiri.works · 31/05/2025
I probably could have gotten away without specifying that in the ToS btw, but being open and honest about maybe trying something like that later to help make moderation speedier, if necessary, is way better than waiting for people to find out after I already did it :p

Chiri Vulpes @chiri.works · 31/05/2025
We absolutely cannot afford to train models for those purposes right now, we have like no money lol. (The site is just made by me and my gf.) I reserved that right at launch because adding that to the ToS later would have freaked everyone out even though it's literally just exactly what it says.

:3 I am absolutely drained after months of nonstop workies, but I think in the end it will be worth it

I love how fast I go from solving some ridiculously complicated problem or teaching a gf some complicated programming thing and then I curl up on the couch and say stupid stuff like “im sleeby. noooo no light light is bad. oh that lights ok its blocked by that thingything. yeah that. lub u toooo”

I feel this a lot, but tbh I think the point of that kind of question when asked by someone that actually *cares* is more to just give you the floor for a minute to talk about what’s going on for you? And then the expectation is for you to ask and them to do the same? It’s so not obvious though

If anybody that knows me has ever been curious what my main job has been, it’s this! It’s been an entire year and a half since the last major update, and I’m super happy with all the improvements we made this time :3 It’s definitely still missing polish in a lot of places, but it’s getting closer…

I was so confused and disappointed when it tasted like that. Weirdly it seemed like Lumina didn’t really get that from it? She actually liked the end result, meanwhile I’m legit nauseous because it tasted like the dish contained dirt. I’m wondering if people just handle the taste differently

(My apologies to any space dirt enjoyers)

I was trying a recipe today that called for beetroot, which I’ve never had before, and after the experience I can make two assertions: 1. Beetroots are literal actual alien plants, why tf are they so purple and squishy and wet 2. They straight up just taste like dirt. Why is this in any recipe????

And besides, you can always pick up any of that stuff again later if the mood strikes you. And it’ll probably be more common for those moods to strike you if you allow yourself to remember the fun of it, rather than the fact you stopped. 🤍

Chiri Vulpes @chiri.works · 03/12/2024
You don’t need to finish things in order for them to have been worth your time!! If you all enjoyed yourselves doing that stuff it was worth it imo. It’s the same thing as playing a new game or something imo. Yes, it may be temporary, but stopping if you’ve lost interest is normal and healthy!

What can I say, I like to do things. Whether those things are committing 18 times to 5 different projects in the span of 6 hours, or whether they are running across the house repeatedly or rolling around in bed making mewling noises

UI changes like this universally change the vibe for social platforms because they incentivise different behaviours. No limit results in longer, less tightly worded posts, forcing users to click those read more buttons when they shouldn’t have to. It’s just different enough to not be tw/bsky anymore

Things happen whether you or anyone else wants them to, no matter who gets fingers pointed at them. It has zero bearing on your worth. I don’t really know you, but I don’t have to for me to know you are not a “waste of oxygen.” For what it’s worth, I hope things get better for you soon 🤍

I was at a shop with my girlfriend today looking at nail polish for her. And then somehow I ended up with one for me?? Admittedly, it *is* perfect for me though. Not because the colour… but instead because it is *incredibly tiny* I feel so much kinship with this bottle of nail polish

(or i can randomly do them when my adhd permits it ofc. i’m cool with that too. *hint hint @ my adhd*)

for the longest time i felt ashamed for my unfinished projects, esp. ones people were excited for or helped fund. but… i’ve always been in survival mode. i’ve always had adhd. it’s not shame now. these projects can sit alongside the things i’d like to do for me, when i’m *safe*. and that is okay.

You did it! Good work lil bun!!!!

Hmm, I kinda like the new one better? Yeah the loot is definitely worse, and I've already run out of big incentives to play it (have my rolls and all tonics), but fwiw I found the difficulty much less spiky, and found the midwave and boss wave encounters to be much more engaging this time around!

People on Twitter keep calling Bluesky an "echo chamber" but after literal years in what can only be described as a "screaming chamber" I will take a respite where I can get it
