what should one play at a chiptune open mic? i have uhhhh NSF covers from 15 years ago. idk what is hip and popular today

don't travel nearly as much as we used to, but at an aus airport u can 1. go to a terminal gate in domestic without a boarding pass to see off someone 2. go through security without taking anything out of your bags, or taking off shoes stuff you use to be able to do at US airports decades ago

i know its frowned upon to dwell on such things, but i often wonder why it is we've barely gotten invited for things we feel we were suited for, for things that ppl who know us & we thought they knew we were suited for. it's unhealthy(perhaps jealous) to think its due to stuff like loss of relevance

everytime i look up some piece of media i've been into lately the internet commentary seems to imply i enjoy things with apparently bad writing, shit character development, and are boring, things that are imperfect. sometimes i don't even pay for this stuff.

we're getting estrogen implants

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 29/09/2026

def give this one a listen! and if you can, with the companion zine. there is a great diversity in the expression of sexuality and asexuality and things in between and like others have said, listening to this has been eye opening in the expression of sexuality, and things as a whole, thru art

my free switch xiv sub keeping our house from going demo

000

finally made the decision to remove ourselves from public social media view (i dont count our individiual roses accounts) tho we don't use these a whole lot to begin with anyway. but this is fine. these are sorta stand in private accounts lol

000

growing increasingly doubtful that people will want to use any software i write

100

we are like, not rly sick anymore and so it seems likei have less of an excuse to not have it together

100

our artist identity and future in shambles

000

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 22/09/2026

a lot of things i want to do and need to do but also incredibly tired and so all the free time i had i "wasted away" binging LPs and being yelled at for ruining our sleep schedule and now i just want to lie in bed all day but also im hungry lol also we're still sick

000

a lot of our life slips by because although we are usually present at things, we've done a poor job of documenting it. not even just, taking pictures, has been a consistent habit of ours. we're trying to be more diligent about journalling and logging stuff (all handwritten and indexed),

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 21/09/2026

we don't know what we want to do as artists in the more public sense. but here's the thing. it's never too late to become one, to "rebrand" yourself, much like it is never too late to iterate on your identity, come out trans, plural, etc.

140

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 21/09/2026

is [thing we experience] plural or is it [x]? who knows but it comes thru as plural for us and that works for us (for now) and so we just roll with it… we're not scared of changing things up when they don't

120

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 20/09/2026

we got prescribed clonidine which we will start when we aren't sick anymore. hoping it helps us

011

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 19/09/2026

i wonder if they will bring back the chrono cross characters to to the switch release of another eden

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 19/09/2026

i think if we go back to full time work, especially if we stay here, it makes sense to just give up freelance/client work entirely. otherwise we will just have no time and energy to work on passion projects.

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 19/09/2026

stubbornly playing on nightmare and spent like maybe 2 or 3 hours on the chapter 1 boss lol, just barely got by. not sure if the strat i ended up landing on was the intended one but a win is a win? when i played original SC i cheesed my way thru combat w cheats so the bosses might as well be fresh

100

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 18/09/2026

can we even get to next year … many roses are wondering this

000

i feel like i am the only person i know who is looking forward to that oot remake. i wouldn't go as far as to say i'm _excited_ about it. but to this day we never actually played it (everyone else has, so it makes sense we feel alone in this)

100

i guess trails in the sky 2nd also releases when we get back.. think i still want to go through torna first tho.. and u know i'll be 100%'ing the absolute crap out of that as well (tho i'm not sure if there is much reason to do Torna NG+ ? so might just be one playthrough)

000

getting destroyed at filo mahjong against a bunch of filo mums bc u need to have the polar opposite of riichi strategy to thrive at this lol

120

sexuality/romanticism wise we just feel way out of place with like 98% of the world

130

and it's done…! all rare Blades are S ranked. i think my next tasks will be to fill out all the maps, sidequests, last few challenge things i need to do. i will prob start torna when we get back this weekend tho. our total hours have almost reached our xc3+fr hours

011

i appreciate our inner world. we can just exist and be unimaginably unhinged. we can try things, redefine and rebuild things 1000 times over and no one ever has to know.

000

realising that when ppl talk about AAA games they generally aren't including Nintendo games and they are not indie games either so just get lost in the narrative (they should be considered AAA but they just are missing a zero digit in their budget to fit the definition ig)

100

two nodes left for the last remaining rare blade to get S rank (30 challenge runs, 100 back attacks). the home stretch

000

might not be able to make music but we can still make silly visuals (this one was all glim and val)

i'm gonna submit anonymously to snowdrop festival this year don't tell anyone ok

020

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 08/09/2026

well glim predicted her name right ofc

030

i never talk abt story when talking about games so it must look like i only ever care about game mechanics or combat or ui or progression or whatever lol. if bsky had spoiler tagging it might be different but glim says our system is just horrible at talking about stories and characters,

100

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 08/09/2026

sure seem to be a lot of weird myths that completely stem from US food culture differences and that being the loudest narrative... as do a lot of other things we just casually hear passed around.

100

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 08/09/2026

xiv on joycons is weird, didnt bring s2 pro controller. can't play on MacBook bc i didnt bring a ps controller and dont have active sub there anyway (the ns2 sub is currently free for now). but at least x.56 usually only has a solo duty so it was a good way to try and get adjusted,

100

estelle 🌹 @midifairy.rosemade.art · 06/09/2026

these thread markers are gonna be a blessing and a curse

damn, i S ranked Elma on Normal. i'm not broken enough to do DPS speedrun LoC stuff so i really had to strategise for those hardest ones. but i've apparently beat the hardest challenges? a win is a win. that said there are some two party restricted ones i find more challenging lol

100

always have this fear that when we are suddenly expressing gratitude to friends or peers, that ppl think we're in some manic episode, or that it is drug induced… when 1. most ppl would not be able to identify a manic episode from us. 2. even if it was the latter, it still comes from a genuine place

100

much that we have a unique circumstance in that (apart from giving money to our dad every month, which tbh is no insignificant amount), we have no real familial responsibilities, we are externally aro af and will prob never have a partner to share the burden of finances (double edged sword there),
