TEMPTED TO, it's baking season and all...

But no! I did a "Dessert tier list' with a friend, so we got to talking about desserts, why we like them, things we've made, stuff like that! It was fun

Today has been a better day!

Ha! Got to do some cute, indulgent little RP nonsense I don't get to do much, talk about desserts, AND finally got to watch a film I've been wanting to for a while with a good friend. Good bit of nice mana to cast spells with as we head into the work week.

WE PERSIST.

True, he did lose his 'I am a 10 year old who is going to be the best' energy as things went on, kinda sanded down a bit. He kinda started out a bit Naruto-y, but modern Ash is a bit too affable to fit that mold.

AHAHAH oh yes, the fact that someone's first intro is the Sun and Moon anime is so strange to me.

Though LUCKY, the animation on that season in particular is one of my favorites. HA I didn't love that Diamond and Pearl middle priod where the animation got all cheap...

I am, however, a fairly casual Pokemon fan. HA I am...not good at interfacing with video games, so the last Pokemon Game I played was Sword and Sheild? And not for very long. The last one I BEAT was probably Pearl.

I just enjoy the aesthetics, apto nonsense and what a joyful, cozy universe it is.

Q:How did you first encounter Pokémon as you definitely seem to be a fan given all of the Pikachu gifs

A: Oh I was born in 1993 and the anime came out in 1998. That thing's been around SINCE I COULD FORM PROPER MEMORIES. I don't even know where I 'First' saw it, it was just there.

The dropship, temu, bootleg market already clutters up dealers' dens from coast to coast. I think if I see someone selling like...obviously AI-generated desk mats I will be unable to stop myself from complaining to staff.

I think if you're caught selling AI nonsense at any con, but specifically a FURRY con, where supporting our artisans is the lifeblood and soul of the community, you should be banned for like...two years. Do it twice? Forever.

Heinous. Do not bring that garbage into the space.

Oh? You had one? how was it to type on? Shame about the folio, I really like the idea of a keyboard with a case that turns into a stand.

LOVE HOW IT LOOKS

*Squirms* And might have an extreme soft spot for Dynomutt?

AHAH I love synths and he's so cute, and glitchy, and stretchy and sassy...the fact he is localized to this movie and will NEVER appear in this form again saddens me.

I FEEL LIKE THIS MOVIE missed the brief on being a 'Scooby Movie' and is instead a 'Hanna Barabra Movie with Scooby in it' which...knowing Hanana Barabra's history of cash grabs isn't out of character, BUT I do kinda wish Scooby's first animated theater debut had ben a proper mystery.

I DO HOWEVER-

I also cleaned my apartment, which helped. WEH, the Aftermath nonsense of *Gestures to VERY negative things that happened in April* really piled on over the weekend, and I just felt covered in oil and sticky and sensitive and bleh the whole time. I think I needed a reset.

The fact that there are like....2-3 Belfort suits in the world is amazing.

HA and at least one Lupin...we gotta get them into a room...

Finally got some time to be Belfort! Just in time for Fursuit Friday!

I've been considering making a Watch-Along discord for a while, and I'll PROBABLY do it before end of fall?

I want it to be an 'Open door' sort of thing, but don't want TOO many people?

So if I do it the link will ONLY BE ON THE TELEGRAM. So follow that if you wanna watch stuff.

Half the reason I got into audio (Beyond loving radio plays for a long time) was because I was afraid no one would read what I wrote and wanted to make it easier to access.

And Writing In The Fandom has been such a sticky, workaround hard thing to spread for YEARS. Just...lil more fanfare maybe?

I'm still kinda lowkey mad they shoved Story Support on FA in under a maintenance update like a minor feature, like they were changing the font on a heading or something instead of a decade-begged change

Just... *Vibrates* the level of 'Lack of care' this fandom has for writers sometimes hurts me.
