Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 12/08/2026I think one reason authors stay away from writing same gender couples is how hard it is to keep track of who is who in any given interaction. 🤭 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 27/05/2026I just realized Muse is the closest thing to a direct continuation of Queen's musical style, at least that I know of. Not sure what to make of it, though. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 14/04/2026I have been noticing a trend of gyaru characters being functionally used as manic pixie dreamgirls. Not sure if the label applies though. Not my culture, I lack knowledge and context, and I only see them in works that make their way to western spheres, so there's also a selection bias. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 17/03/2026Sure, "karl". As per our previous letter: "ENOUGH WITH THE DAMN PINS, AND SEND THE FUCKING SALTPETER ALREADY, ABIGAIL!" Yours, John Adamns I have to watch 1776 again soon... 010
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 15/10/2025Never seen it. What I noticed recently is the like/dislike buttons being pushed further to the right to make way for the "join" button. 000

Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 19/09/2025Having friends for dinner is fun and all, but you quickly run out of friends. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 27/07/2025Don't say "kill the bitch", it's common and uncouth. Instead say "perish the thot", it's more elegant and sophisticated. 😁 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 24/07/2025I think of how media now is less episodic and the stories move forward at a more consistent pace, and how that structure is much better suited as a template for young people trying to take a shit at DMing. Is the new generations brain better wired by the new media landscape to avoid those pitfalls? 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 24/07/2025Never letting the main characters achieve any kind of permanent victory until they have been edged for 40 or so weekly episodes. That structure doesn't lend itself for the best playing experience. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 24/07/2025For trying to tell their story in a way that threw player agency out of the window, basing the flow of their story on serial media, the kind that would reset the status quo at the end of every adventure. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 24/07/2025I can see how insecurity would play a part at both ends. And lack of communication skills. No shared vision on what the game would be about. But there was also incompetence. On the players to engage with the hooks properly, to understand the opportunities presented by the DM. But also on the DM... 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 24/07/2025that would allow the villain to escape or be imune to our attacks or whatever happens to fit the situation. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 24/07/2025Players made plans away from the DM so they wouldn't sabotage it, only for the DM to still notallow us to win, their excuses getting progressively more ridiculous as we tried to antecipate their next bullshit item/power... 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 24/07/2025It felt like the DMs didn't want us to "win", either because that would mean they were loosing to us, or because it would derail the story they had on their heads. We were "supposed" to loose every other encounter in some way or another. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 13/07/2025Sure, studio executives would welcome AI so advanced that they would no longer have to pay for writers, actors, production. But when AI can do all that, what will be the point of a studio? They are cheering for their own replacement and they don't even realize it. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 03/07/2025A site where you can upload an image, select a skin tone and a timeline to see how your tattoo ideia would age. I feel like this would make a consistent anount of ad money. 000

Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 08/04/2025Beyond being the most common voice on literature, Third Person Limited is an awsome name for an agency investigating literary crimes. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 04/04/2025Hayao Miyazaki is the artist that illustrated and animated our childhoods. He gave us so much, he is the architect of so much of our inner lives, and that's how you pay him. 010
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 04/04/2025People I know, who are independent writers, are doing the AI Ghibli "art" syle trend. I don't know if they are just dumb or total hypocrites, but it pisses me off to see fellow artists doing shit like that just because they are not on the same medium. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 04/04/20252022's The Batman's Batman is a little weeb, eyeliner-wearing edgelord orfan with horn-looking ears that calls himself "Vengeance". He is basically a Thiefling. 010
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Is there a term for companies shooting themselves in the foot by adding AI to apps where the expectation of privacy is paramount, like I don't know, your personal messaging app? 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 27/02/2025That feeling when the new dnd books introduces oddly specific changes that match what you were already doing in your own table 😎 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Sorry, forgot to capitalize Deathmatch. I don't really want them to kill each other, I just want a stop motion short of them doing it, like in the old MTV show. 000

Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 17/01/2025Funny coincidence, I just went to buy groceries and saw a guy singing to himself as he walked, either oblivious to or uninterested in the funny faces of the few other people on the sidewalk. He wasn't being loud either, just happy. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 17/01/2025When did we decide as a society that singing is something only professionals can do? It's instinctive, and a fun activity to do either alone or as a group, but it seems there's this layer of shame directed at anyone that dares to be happy without being good at it, which people seem eager to enforce. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 17/01/20253 times a week I start typing a funny thing on bsky, then I realize it fails to consider all of the nuance, start adding more clarifying text, realize what I'm really doing is writing an essay on my phone, so I delete it all and close the page. It should be frustrating, but it's oddly satisfying. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 17/01/2025It sounds like you need to install some egg cartons inside your head 😁 (I am so sorry, please don't block me) 010

Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 15/01/2025I was going to sleep, but CircusP just released a new single 🤟 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 04/01/2025Good news #2: it turns out there is much more adventure and plot that I just didn't watch the first time around. Considering there was 6 of us and a single television to watch stuff on, and we only had 4 channels of broadcast television growing up, it's no wonder I missed a lot of episodes. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 04/01/2025Good news #1: although there is no Portuguese sub, there is a Spanish dub, and it's actualy very good. Not that I speak Spanish, but it turns out I can understand it just fine, and I'm getting better at it. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Unfortunately, there are no subtitles available for DBZ in my country, and since I don't speak japanese, I have no option but to watch the dub. And in the dubbed version, Gohan's voice is 10x more annoying. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 30/12/2024And the literal three act structure of the tournaments, spanning multiple seasons. Well done. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 30/12/2024One thing that surprised me was how much the background art from the original series caught my attention. So many beautiful mountains, clouds, fields and forests. Things I could not appreciate as a child when I first started watching it. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Finished watching Dragon Ball, the original series, and finaly closed the lore gap I still had between it and DBZ. It also eased the transition between the fun adventure series and the more boring fighting archs of the later series. Maybe now I can watch DBZ with less of a sense of loss. 100
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Also, I am making the arbitrary distinction that a dad joke may be anoying and try to get a reaction out of you, but it will not try to outright offend you. If it crosses that line, it becomes an uncle joke, and that's another beast entirely. 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 12/12/2024Oh damn! I would guess those are either bots or trolls, jumping ships from the old site. Hope they fail to get traction here. I've seen people mentioning that blocking and not interacting is the best way to avoid and starve those accounts, which seems healthy. Keep up the good work :) 000
Leandro @leandrobraga.bsky.social · 29/11/2024I hear a lot of people talking about how nostalgia and unending sequels are a bad result of capitalism, which I don't disagree with. But maybe it's just as a symptom of how shitty we all feel as a society. I think the market is just responding to a cultural moment, not the other way around. 010
