With the sharp rise in AI generated content on social media, I'm finding myself less and less inclined to engage with... anything. Everything feels potentially fake and untrustworthy and it makes me wonder why i'm even bothering to stick around 😕

Anyone else feeling this way?

Oh I think this is the first cloudscape I can share from my new place, the view was even prettier irl and the fresh smell of autumn leaves in the air left me in a super happy mood... Until a small fly flew in my throat while cycling, throat hurted all day.

Anyway @cxve.dev look clouds!

Also to this day I have nothing but respect for YellowAfterlife for making this public and for listening to me as without them my voice would never have been heard.

And nothing but respect for any artist and dev he worked with!

Tldr:
Dev blamed everyone but himself for cancelling a major update.

Paying employees badly.

Bad Workington conditions.

Transphobia (speaking of experience)

Not mentioned in the post is him allowing 2 of his mods whom I used to to support to send me death treats and telling me to kill myself.

Due to seeing people I care about playing games made by developer/publisher Hopfrog I want to put this out once more
@yellowafterlife.bsky.social made a very good post regarding him. While I don't want to judge what anyone plays I do want to be able to inform you. share.google/CQZLS4x9m5VD...

Forager in retrospect

In light of recent news of the game's multiplayer update being canceled and overall uncertainty about the game's future, I look back at the game, the announcement, and how could this even happen. Cont...

First night at our new place! It's nice and darkest outside even with the streetlights on, best of all our first night here is also a rainy night! Just hearing the rain and having our own place makes me feel relaxed :)

Armor Poser is available for 1.21.9 already 😉 What to update to 1.21.9 next #ModDev

ShyNieke @shynieke.nl · 16d

While I like that idea, this would be a new mod beacuse I feel like it would be out of scope for Armor Poser. But I definitely love the idea and will make sure a mod that does name related stuff possible!

ShyNieke @shynieke.nl · 16d

Other then "Armstrong" any other name suggestion for things?

ShyNieke @shynieke.nl · 16d

Omg yes! We have actually been looking into making either a new mod or adding something to our existing one to allow access to the mannequin but where stuck on the obtaining phase, this feels so elegant yet makes sense. Using Armor stands and naming them!

ShyNieke @shynieke.nl · 16d

We will look into this once we are done moving, it's a great suggestion!

This is what I am so proud of, armorstand voodoo became possible for all :)

ShyNieke @shynieke.nl · 19d

Side note:
If anyone ever has any issues with any of our moods please do reach out to me so it can be looked at.

Also if you ever need custom mods made feel free to also reach out we are more then happy to make more mods :) as long as we are allowed to upload them!

I am extremely thankful to the #hermitcraft community for using Armor Poser and was extremely happy to see @zombiecleo.bsky.social use and like it. The end of this season is bittersweet for me. It's the first time I saw something I made used this much!

Here is hope to see it again next season!

As today's cloudscape can show. Never give up hope completely. There is always a light even I f you can't see it yet. My light well for that you will have to wait a few more days.

Also making sure @cxve.dev sees the cloud lol

Posting that long rant is honestly a weight of my shoulder. I feel like shite due to it and due to the feeling of not being good enough. But once I had time to mourn the parents I didn't have I can finally work more on being who I want to be!

When I did my first small step towards acting and did the improv lessons she didn't come to the final show. Now bysco and I may be getting our own place and she already has said she may not come and help (I almost never ask for help) due to the whole grandkid thing. It feels like she doesn't care.

ShyNieke @shynieke.nl · 27d

And why do I feel like this you may ask? Simple any big or important thing in my life that I have invited her to so far was met with excuses and her not coming. So today while brushing my hair which takes time I started to think and this is my logical conclusion. I was the daughter that failed.

Now she has her grand child, the daughter she never had from birth. While I guess she accepts me I am mourning. I am mourning the mum I could have had. Seeing how she is with the kid shows me how she could have been with me.

So she for the longest time didn't treat me as one as she didn't know, then when I came out many transphobic comments where made which I have mostly forgiven except the one where she claimed my name belongs in the red light district. That one hurt.
