hi im author. black. autistic. demigirl ace lesbian. 27. your next president she/her and kit/kit for info about my characters/story, look at the #chaos talk, #chaos stuff, and #oc stuff tag!

so many people have this, "im gonna live fast and die young" attitude about covid but its really way more like, "im gonna live fast, kill my neighbor, become disabled, and suffer for a long time"

i feel like everybody saying, "ill wear a mask if i have symptoms" forgot the 40% asymptomatic rate of covid, and the more recent study showing 60% of infections were spread before symptoms showed, or from infections that presented asymptomatically

also forgetting that masks can prevent catching it in the first place

plus, covid test can false negative

Elementary school counselor: “Hey champ, how’s it going? What brings you in to see me?”

Me, age 9: “Well you see I think the world is falling apart and maybe coming to some sort of end, but no one seems concerned and everybody seems to be pretending not to see it, if anything it’s all a big partisan joke to them. And if the world really is falling apart and the seas are turning to acid and boiling up and filling with plastic, that’s really inconvenient to me, because I’d like to study marine animals someday, and if they die off I’m going to be out of a career and pretty cross about it. Also I have no way of holding anyone accountable for any of this so I have turned all that guilt and blame inward into perpetual self-punishment, and also gender makes me profoundly sad, but that’s for another session.”

Elementary school counselor: “….so would you say you feel more smiley or frowny more of the time?”

japanese game dev in the 90s: hey dude can you make some music for our game about anime girls getting fucked sloppy style

guy who's about to push the PC-98 sound card to its absolute limit and create the most heartachingly beautiful music you've ever heard: Yeah okay

Look, I know it's funny to say the PC-98 eroge had a stellar soundtrack for 'just an eroge'. But that is extremely dismissive of what YU-NO is and how it shaped the landscape of future releases in the era. Like we're talking about a game with time travel that lets you set down checkpoints in time, so you can collect items across multiple timelines and solve a series of mysteries. It's a story so long and complicated, it had been in Kanno's mind and developing for over a decade. It's a story that doesn't even properly work as a show or movie, it has to be a game. This title was extremely influential to how the sci-fi genre evolved in the adventure game medium of this era in japan. Titles like Steins;Gate wouldn't exist in nearly the same fashion, KEY works would be entirely different, other adventure game producing companies started trying to push themselves to match YU-NO's high production values. I'm sorry but you can be funny without being dismissive of something that had a huge cultural impact on a medium of storytelling.

the composer Ryu Umemoto left his well-paying job scoring licensed games at FamilySoft to work in the pc-98 eroge scene because of the creative freedom it allowed him. he and the writer Hiroyuki Kanno worked together on several ambitious games for various small erotic games companies. there's a great obituary that talks about his life, here: click.
