Truth is only an illusion.

#mizuki date #mizuki okiura #ai the somnium files #ai nirvana initiative #aistf #i didn't get a chance to mention it here but i bought nirvana initiative as a christmas gift to myself and played it earlier this year #honestly nothing will beat the mizuki route from the first game for me but i had fun #also knew i was in for a ride right off the bat bc uchikoshi pulled out that fourth wall break immediately #i wanted to draw her for the m prompt but i couldn't get it right #but now here she is :) matching her- #...i want so badly to say big brother but date is technically her adoptive father #which on one hand is very funny #but on the other hand very weird #uchikoshi posted a very cryptic message the other day but it was also on april fools so idk what to think smh this man is killing me #my art

Hhhhhhhh I wanna be hired so bad

#I don't Have spending money I got like a tiny food allowance it'd be a game changer to actually have income #even when I get commission moneys (not common) it amounts to being able to afford extra stuff to munch on for a week #last thing I bought for myself was my nine nine nine copy I think? that was with years of grandparent christmas money lol #also it's just an all around damn good position? I'd love to have that in my routine hhh I hope me being new isn't what dooms me #it was the one thing I felt wasn't great in my interview though I guess I still did push it to a good direction when transitioning topics? #nhaah I am satisfied with how I did on my first job interview ever that's good and enough #...nhaa I still hope it works out though... there's not a lot making me stand out from other applicants I feel? hhhnha #Void fala aí

LET ME ASSIGN YOU AN AESTHETIC WORD.

CAFUNÉ. cafuné means running your fingers through someone's- perhaps a lover, hair. it's such an intimate, affectionate way of showing love. if you got this result, you're a romantic at heart; very sweet, delicate, precious wandering soul. aren't you scared of your heart being too big for your body? somehow, you remind me of that pretty coral pink that bleeds into a soft indigo when the sun is slowly setting.

what i'd like to tell you is that we can't save everyone, and that's okay. you're doing your best, and it's enough.

#there's literally a post at the top of my drafts Right Now talking about how much of a romantic he actually is #under all the sarcasm and bullshit he's a genuine fucking softie. he Craves love. he gives it away freely. #cafuné specifically makes me think of when he first got back together with kit ryan #and one of the first things they did as a couple was stay in bed together for 3 days. didn't leave the flat #just had nothing more important in the world than being with each other and that's how he is in MOST relationships motherfuckers!!! #justice league dark's womanizing dickhead has rotted people's brains!! commitment issues my ass this man WANTS to settle down!!!! #anyway. VERY passionate about this if you can't already tell #( character study. ) A WALKING PLAGUE OF A MAN. #( dash games. ) ALRIGHT YOU OVERGROWN LARPERS! HERE! #idk it's always 'wrecked-looking husk of a man' THIS and 'wall-licking little cryptid' THAT and 'where's that gif of matt ryan in leather' #NAH MAN. bring me the guy who spent almost a full fucking day at the shops trying to find kit the perfect christmas present!! #bring me the guy who took a depressed god out to share a coffee bc the god just looked Too Fucking Sad to leave alone!! #bring me the guy who started singing the beatles in the bar & got everyone else to join in just bc someone seemed to need a leg up!! #where is the man who took abby arcane out dancing!! tucked her in!! bought her breakfast in the morning!! all because she seemed lonely!! #that's this motherfucker!!!!!! #and yeah he is ALSO a wrecked-looking husk of a cryptid who ROCKS a bit of leather but that other guy is still in there too!!!!! #idk. IDK. i feel many things about constantine's softness always being cut away by the sharp edges of his tongue and his suffering #40th birthday party constantine lives rent-free in my skull forever and you can never take him away from me

i caved and went and bought myself subnautica as a consolation for the fact i cant afford a 50+ dollar game like bg3 rn

#cant afford the 50 dollar game so i just buy the 17 dollar game instead to hold me over!! #bg3 is probs gonna have to wait until christmas or my birthday #ooc. #tbd. #the only games ive ever bought at full price upon release was like. skyrim. and horizon forbidden west. #i prefer to wait until the price goes down a bit buuuut honestly i want bg so much i dont think i can wait for that!! #i also want vampire the masqurade but thats another 50+ dollar game i cant afford rn #...diablo too. #goddamnitsomanygoodgames

My dad just dumped a ps5 on my bed while I was asleep

#apparently he bought it because he had to.. pay my sister’s power bill and also buy her an air conditioner #I don’t know how that correlates #but I guess it does #I was supposed to get one for Christmas and the price would be split between my parents and my grandparents #now he it won’t be taken out of my Christmas money from them??? #I just woke up #i have a headache #and I’m confused #anyway #now I guess I can add new games to my Christmas list #(security breach????)

MIRACLE MASK ACQUIRED

#well I knew I was gonna get it because I was there when we did #but still #I now have 2 Layton games #and one with Descole now #I am eager to start it #professor layton #miracle mask #real life stuff #christmas #also when we were leaving the store with some games my dad complained about #how his new game is the same price as my ancient one #and I went “hey it’s only-” #only to remember Miracle Mask came out in 2011 which was over a decade ago #so it actually is pretty old #also looking at this cartridge I’m almost inclined to believe this one was bought when it came out #definitely looks worn

Tens of thousands of people have been fired in the tech sector in the last six months alone. With the economy the way it is, and with people who are already unable to get a job, I wonder how an extra 20,000+ jobseekers are going to have any luck finding work.

#i just want to point out that this isn't just automation. it's different for every company but a lot of it comes down to profiteering imo #the video game industry made disgusting amounts of money during the pandemic. best three years of sales in history #but that momentum was never going to keep up forever. even when the momentum was at full swing people were getting laid off #Activision-Blizzard laid off over a hundred people just before christmas while bobby kotick got a $250 million bonus #thst might have even been before the pandemic #but you're seeing it with microsoft and ubisoft. wouldn't surprise me if sony and nintendo were following suit in a less public manner #microsoft - arguably the biggest tech conglomerate in the world (next to tencent) - laid off 10 thousand workers alone #i live in a town with just over 10 thousand people. in my entire fucking town. in my perspective that's more or less the world around me #all of those people - jobless #facebook - didn't like 7k people just get fired? that's hot on the heels of john carmack leaving too #john carmack is probably one of the top 100 people in the tech industry. his tech improvements helped aging PC hardware keep up for years #DOOM might be a meme but it ran that well because id software under john carmack revolutionised rendering techniques and scrolling #and stuff like that. john carmack has been at the forefront of graphical technology and game development for 30+ years #that's resulted in a couple duds like RAGE. he was also all-in on voxel technology before he moved into VR #all of that was context for this: john carmack left meta (who bought oculus) and lambasted the company for poor management on the way out #saying that he'd never seen such unnecessary and wanton expenditure in his career. meta were throwing their money at things thay don't work #here's john carmack trying to lay the groundwork of a successful game for meta's metaverse. here's meta chasing superfluous buzzwords #meta spent almost $14 BILLION on buzzwords and marketing at the behest of the actual tech. and then they FIRED 7000 PEOPLE!!!!!! #they had a HAIL MARY working on their game - because metaverse IS A GAME - and they prioritised SELLING THE PRODUCT BEFORE BUILDING IT #IT COST THEM $14 BILLION + THEIR HAIL MARY - AND THEN THEY FIRED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE!!!!!! #Ubisoft and Activision-Blizzard have been facing mass resignations after years of abusive and toxic workplaces #and on top of that they're firing people too. google stadia just went under. it wouldn't surprise me if 2k and rockstar were firing people #I don't know how many other unemployed people there are in america - hundreds of thousands? but 20k more is even worse for everyone #keep in mind that even with a $14 billion loss - meta still makes billions. Microsoft is in no financial danger #tech is more lucrative now than ever. i genuinely believe that these cuts are to keep record profits at record heights #because the pandemic boom is ending and their ALREADY OBSCENELY LUCRATIVE revenue flows are going back to normal #so 20k+ tech workers are losing their jobs to keep $80 billion instead of $79 billion. all of those people - jobless #that's 20 thousand people with individual lives and families and expenses. lost their jobs in the last six months #that example i gave - $80 billion instead of $79 billion. that's not revenue. that's profit. #all of those people out of work due to incompetence at best and rank orofiteering at worst. their salaries and benefits come under revenue

i just calculated and turns out i play splatoon for over a third of my lifespan.

#no wonder i feel like ive been a fan since i was little #its true #i was #been there since splat1 i got it in the mario kart and splatoon 2 pack #i only wanted splatoon cause i saw playthroughs and online lets plays of it and obsessed over the lore #mario kart was a bonus for sleepovers #the 2nd game i got for christmas together with an online subscription the year it came out #as always been obsessing over it before launch and during launch and i watched playthroughs and played the game religiously once i got it #stopped plaiyng that much when my joycons started drifting like hell #then splatoon 3 got announced and i was like fuck that im playing WITH drift #i also bought octo expansion sometime close to its release too #saw my friend had it and i didnt wanna just watch a playthrough #i actually never finished the octo expansion playthrough i started cause i wanted to experience the end myself #but uh im stuck cuz of drift :/ (this problem is solved by my new controller coming in the mail today) #(its a splatoon 3 pro controller teehee) #and splatoon 3 i preordered that bad boy i played the moment i got it i obsess over it like nothing else god i love this game #anyway its another splatfest and soon as my new controller is charged im gonna start killing for team sour. #splatoon

I need to buy the KH novels I haven't yet, as well as the KHIII mangas that are out so far.

#i'm sad that i've let my khiii book collection go incomplete. i used to be so good about keeping it up to date #but i actually started forgetting which of the novels i had and didn't have (because they're not on my book shelf and are in various #places. i need more book shelves...) #and. if i'm being honest. the books i don't have aren't exactly my favorite games in the series and i knew i could wait to read them #and as for the khiii mangas i think i was waiting for more than one to come out (like quite a few. or maybe all of them in english) before #i bought them. so i could read them all in one go. and i don't think they're all out yet of course. but i know a few are now and that's #good enough for me to start #and basically the kh pilot has made me kh obsessed again and catching up on my kh reading will give me something to do so here we go #but the novels i still need are coded ddd and khx i think #also i bought my uncle all the kh novels and mangas as a christmas gift one year. and somehow that confused me and made me forget what #i'd bought for him and what i actually own #but yeah. like i said. i think i'm just missing the coded ddd and khx novels and all of the khiii mangas that are out so far
