everyday on this website I encounter unwell people making dangerous claims like “I’m going to play through the entire 3DO library” and instead of directing these individuals to emergency services or calling local authorities, other users of this site celebrate them, reenforcing unhealthy behaviors

So apparently there's a Godot For Switch port on the Nintendo forums? Like I thought I had to go with one of the handful of publishers or do it myself, but if I can just, go grab the open source Switch version of Godot? Holy fuk old.reddit.com/r/godot/comm...

They let me write a whole Ace Attorney quest for Hello Kitty Island Adventure 😈

Kuromi talks to Hello Kitty and My Sweet Piano in a cafe. she says, "my name is ino'sent biestander (If you're using text to speech, it's supposed to sound like innocent bystander) and I know nothing about any cookies!"

The Ace Attorney OBJECTION! text, but done I. Hello Kitty language

My Sweet Piano, as a lawyer, says "no, we can't lose... we need something outlandish to happen... to turn this case around..."

Detective Badtz-maru says " now everybody knows that the lawyer always does the investigation part too." this is a reference to how the lawyers always seem to be involved in the investigation in the Ace Attorney games
