Mom & I just had a little chair dance party.

We took turns playing fun dance songs, talking about stuff and just vibing and having fun.

I'm incredibly thankful to have her as a mom & to now know her as a person.

Even if we weren't related, I would want to be her friend.

No thanks necessary!

Get to see your creativity and the joy it brings you (even the heavy stuff) is wonderful.

I am incredibly thankful I have had the pleasure and good fortune to know you and to share time together on this cosmic rock circling the sun. ^^

Also Tataru lovers gotta show solidarity

Mobile *otome* gacha game.

Most adult dating sims are provocative these days.

A very rare Main vs RL post! Le gasp!

Happy 14th!

My femme Miqo'te main in XIV.

She has vibrant dark red hair with black highlights, purple eyes, long droopy ears, paler skin, and a VERY fluffy tail!

She's dressed in a frilly blue dancers outfit and a pair of blue and gold high heels. She also has her signature rectangular glasses on.

Her expression is meant to show confidence, but she's awkward.

And then there's RL me who is also very awkward.

Shorter red hair with grays, blue eyes, and skin so white you'd be right to mistake me for a tub of mayonnaise.

I tried to smile, but I am awkward so...

Hi, Bean!!!

What an absolute cutie!!!

Sorry to go full Boomer or whatever, it's just disheartening to poke my head out of my gaming bubble and be reminded of the hellish gaming landscape we're in now.

And rampant, global greed is only going to make shit worse in the long run.

Get a new game?

Unlock new characters/outfits/etc by, ya know, playing through the game - not by swiping your card for more $$$.

Or just being able to easily try out new games because they weren't huge finacial commitments nor were the consoles they were played on.

I miss games being complete products that were polished on release.

I miss being able to just play something on release, no account setup required. No patching required. No internet required!

They just WORKED & were whole products.

And don't even get me started on micro transactions, Day 1 DLC (or DLC in general), or paywalls.

The reason gaming was able to become a powerhouse industry is because none of the above things existed while it was getting its footing.

All of this should be a no-brainer...

And yet more and more companies weaponize optimization to try & prevent ppl from uninstalling.

Console/platform exclusives should have gone the way of the dodo by now, and yet...

Why QA when modders will fix it or the players can be your free testers?
