the problem isn't even as cool as "the secret service would shoot me," it's more likely "I'd bungle things so badly the building security would arrest me and the secret service would find out about it via an email titled 'fyi: security incident"

also, it's been possible to "recompile" music and movies and books online for a long time, and yeah there has been piracy, but it didn't kill the industries.

I think it's also really hard to come out of long-term depression and realize what you lost to the disease - your brain works now but you still have to deal with the consequences of dropping out of school, neglecting your body, alienating friends, etc. It can be a lot.

I think mine's sexy! in a tim burton kind of way the dress is supposed to be Rose going out of her comfort zone so I wanted it to be loud and take up a lot of space

the prompts were for dresses evoking a raven and a tiger

black silk dress with peacock green and very dark blue inserts

dress with tiers of orange and black silk. the orange is intricately embroidered and the black has an orange sheen.

in much the same way that having a walking-around job has greatly reduced my office-chair back pain, it's good that I'm being challenged, I needed this but that doesn't make it feel good

this job training is kicking my ass, or more specifically my ego. feels like going from high school to college - I had gotten used to being the Smart Guy who knew all the answers, and now suddenly I don't know shit about shit and will fail for real if I don't work for real

Declaring an emergency isn't a cheat code for cancelling elections! There are 51 national emergencies already happening, there's pretty much always a bunch of them. We've got emergencies still active from the Clinton administration.

i'm sure you'd much rather read posts about fascist politics or internecine queer drama, but unfortunately, all i have for you is more of my beautiful dresses

very slim fit khaki dress with long sleeves, brown bodice, blue bow

shimmery purple strapless dress with lace frills at top and bottom

dress with white top and underskirt, a purple overskirt, and gold belt with purple gems

yet another vampire dress, this one all in red

There are! Measuring the characters and adjusting your mannequin to their dimensions is a part of the gameplay. (the mannequin only adjusts so far, so you can't make a *very* large or small dress, but there's a decent range)

Cliff PervoSCARY @pervocracy.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

Finally got one I actually kinda like! The prompt was "eclectic, using at least four different fabrics in different patterns, with at least five tassels."

dress with kind of a lot going on tbh. orange hippie skirt, blue vest, white sleeves. and tassels. unfortunately there are tassels.

at least two of these girls are going to hook up before the end of the story

many-ruffled turquoise silk dress with gold belt and delicate pink shoulder thingies

purple dress shaped like flower petals, with floral top

"what if a sexy lady was also a flower" really is coming up a lot, isn't it. green tulip dress with strapless top and pink skirt.

the only interesting thing on mine was "re-buys the same clothes often" and "prefers easy-clean fabrics," which makes me sound like a bit of a mess but it's work uniforms

the supermarket also sells fruits and vegetables and herbs and spices, if chicken and rice are the only things you ever buy that's your own problem

Cliff PervoSCARY @pervocracy.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

I've done that a few times but after the first few commissions I had enough spare cash that I just figured I'd find a use for it later but yeah, it would be nice to have a returns policy. also on my wishlist: seeing the dresses on the characters, better accessory placement, menswear sequel/DLC

takes him a while down the thread to note that the apps don't work, but only a hater would care about that

Yes, the critics are correct, the open source rebuilds that were made in days are buggy and a bit broken at present.

I'm sure this criticism will age about as well as "the people have six fingers".

If you can't see what's happening here, your head is in the sand.

The people DID have six fingers. Critics will say these apps work when they work. Currently they do not.

I guess we're just taking for granted here that none of these parents could possibly have been abusive for real??? did the kids really just yell "you're toxic and unsafe" or did they cite some very specific behaviors to describe that way

The Tufted ground squirrel (Rheithrosciurus macrotis) is a riddle wrapped in an enigma wrapped in floof. Let's start with the *FLOOF* & talk about why they're called "VAMPIRE SQUIRRELS" last. They have the largest tail: body size ratio of any mammal on Earth: the tail is *130%* the size the body.

Taken from "Critter Science" blog: A squirrel with dark coloration, just an amazingly large tail, and long tufted ears that point slightly backwards. Along the long-thin body are orange, white and black striping. The tail looks almost exactly like one of those dust-trapping dusters.

my actual opinion is that the classes should be, whenever possible, ranked by performance in the sport itself. tall people probably run faster, but fast people definitely run faster.
