When you're typecast by all your friends but they're right

Screenshot of a Discord conversation. DigiDoggi comments with quotes around it as a thought "I should link this to Setsune", showing a sceeencap of Jamoart's Bunnie Rabbot fanart. Realizing only after I had been the one to repost it. "oh". I respond, "Because Sofox linked it to me"

Now all I need to do is sell all of my things to fund a sound-dampened studio in our basement. Along with the 20 other expensive projects and hobbies I want to do.

Yesterday things were going a little... off, and I was starting to take it personally. So I put away the internet rectangles, other than wireless headphones that cover the house, and dithered around with just those until bed this morning. I forget how much that helps, when I'm in the mood for it.

A drawing of Pearl from Splatoon recreating the "Don't break the window" dog meme. She's looking out the driver-side window or a car with a goblin-esque grin, hands pressed to the glass, as a paper sign taped to the window reads: "Please don't break the window. The A/C is on. She has water and is listening to her favorite music."

I ordered the second one on a hurried whim a few weeks ago, "cool Fox shirt". Now that I have it in person, I realize the purple cast makes it look kinda like my fursona / VRChat avatar. Sick.

I wonder how a contest can state "A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING." in the rules if buying their products is explicitly advertised as increasing your number of entries?

A cropped screenshot of a contest promotional e-mail. The fine print states "No purchase necessary. A purchase will not increase your chances of winning." But above is a cropped part of the advertisement saying "Shop the 4x Sweeps collection to 4x your chances to join the winner's circle."

Yesterday I was sleep-deprived, popped on to VRChat to go watch a show with friends. I load into the normally empty hub, only to be staring directly at this hunched-over creature I didn't immediately recognize, in a normally empty area, like some kind of sleep paralysis demon or haunting. #vrchat

I believe it's the one from the Valiant Captain N comics, which swapped out some of the third-party characters for Nintendo ones. (This isn't how Captain N normally looked, this is a "Bad Future" version Samus encountered after an accident.)

Captain N The Game Master by Valiant Comics, Issue No. 5, part of the Nintendo Comics System. A grizzled older Kevin (Captain N) rests atop a pile of electronics garbage like a throne, Samus, sans Power Suit and instead wearing a green legless jumpsuit with boots and lounging beside him with a smirk, yellow bullet-like droids with weapons and face grills that look like frowns accompany them.

(This is not digging for compliments telling me my voice actually is fine; I do in fact dislike it and would gladly trade in for Open Source Voice Box Replacement if the option was there. But I don't trust any corporation to not make me say "Buy the $8.99 McDonald's Cheeseburger!" every 20 minutes.)

Clipping of a Sony patent demonstrating a technology to skip ads if the user shows participation. In this example a giant picture of a burger is drawn on a flat-screen TV, and the viewer has stood up from the couch they were sitting on, their arms lifted into the air, as they yells, "MCDONALD'S!"

I love that part of socializing where even I realize I should be talking now and the silence has gone on a little too long and my arms are now locked at my sides and oh god I'm NES Mega Man #vrchat

I understand red herrings; I simply feel like the ending was weird and missed some loose ends that could've made it better, even as a media accessible to kids. It would've sidestepped "how did Sonic get caught": he didn't, it was a ruse by Infinite to get Vector to blab and access to Eggman's lens.

I've never seen a repeat of a Discord Quest before, but they were apparently so proud of this clip Apple paid extra to have it shown twice. (I think this time they muted some swearing I hardly noticed?) In case you thought I was kidding, here it is, apparenly Silo Season 1, Episode 10 #spoiler.

Screenshot of the Silo advertisement clip, showing a barely-moving video of a tree in field outside, right before the man in the picture screams for everyone to shut their eyes and shuts down the whole system himself, then demands everyone "unsee" it.

Behind them both Louie's Place can be seen on a sign on an island.

Kinda want to order the Digital Circus Finale Poster and the Jax Animegaz, but trying to not be irresponsible. The shipping rates don't help either.

The Amazing Digital Circus Finale Poster, a limited time item showing Jax having a tea party with old friends on a grassy plain, as Pomni looks through an out-of-place doorway with a smile, the other Digital Circus members seen through on the other side.

Wow, as someone who enjoyed Severance so far and can understand conceptually what this show is going for, Discord you could not shown me a clip of Silo that made it look any dumber than you did. JPEG OF A TREE JUMPSCARE!

Got it! Well actually I haven't gotten it yet, no one else did, but many of us even got a second Hype Train going, and I recorded it for proof if I need to talk to support! Because there's no way I'm letting it go after this much investment of time and... investment. #vrchat

This, this is what I'm talking about. It's not usually this bad, but I was in a location between two large groups. I have no problem looking at them head on, but I look away, then look back, and VRChat seizes up hard. Sometimes it doesn't recover. Is there an "Unload Timer" I can adjust? #vrchat

I don't know why my Avatar Imposter won't show when I look on Quest 3's VRChat. It looks fine previewed on PC. I can see it for others. I don't have Avatar limits set. I've tried deleting and regenerating it, deleting the cache and restarting, but I'm always looking at a yellow Error robot. #VRChat

I was looking for the meme about burying your face into the computer monitor. I found it. Then switched back to All and realized Google Search thought I was patting it on the head and calling it a good boy. JFC.

Cropped screenshot of a Google Search "All" tab. The search box says "hmm yes perfect". The "Overview" says "It sounds like we've hit the nail on the head! Since you're ready to lock things in, I can help you wrap up the details." And then it BSes on some more.

We are once again at the "Tech Companies are lying about what's AI to try to normalize it" Stage:

A screenshot of a YouTube community post by Doobus Goobus, an animator with a distinctive style, stating: "YouTube has started randomly labeling videos, like my cartoon here, as AI. I really do not appreciate the videos I spend hours of my time making every single drawing in, being roped in with slop that can be made in 5 seconds. Please let creators who actually make real videos know when this happens, cause it's generally just insulting." Below is an example of their Invincible parody video, "Invincible, But You Can Hurt Him", and circled in red below is a little infographic label marking it as supposedly "AI".

But consider... the Atari Lynx:

I've talked myself into wanting Sticks playable for Sonic Frontiers Definitive Edition. It's the first canon game she's been name-dropped in. Her debut game was melee-focused (even if she wasn't playable in it). Imagine her interactions with Sage!

I was just thinking the other day "My hope for a Star Fox game is that Nintendo does what the movie did and skim through the intro instead of telling another origin story", but here we are. Oh well.

The famous first page of the comic series All-Star Superman, which distills the Superman origin story we all know down to four panels, each with two words and striking images.

I used to have this arcade game, but not with this tilted formfactor, it was more of a standard cabinet, I think called something else (internet suggests Kapt'n Krooz'r, which sounds kind of right, I don't think it was Kosmik?) Was going to gut it. I wonder if it was a conversion, or something else.

Flier for Kapt. Krooz'r, a green alien in a UFO disc spaceship running away from red aliens in rockets. This Moon Child does not have the power to be their friends.
