It is almost midnight and it's 32C/90F out, the worst midnight low we ever saw during the crushingly awful heatwaves in July and August last year. This is fine
@eniko If strictly sticking to FF trappings, having various common and uncommon actions other than getting beaten nearly to death fill the bar to varying amounts, useable thresholds that Do Things, etc.
sorry for being angry on main but someone who should really know better than to slide into my mentions with "actually covid is no big deal" really threw off the start of my day
remember when trump said if we just stop testing for covid it would go away as if by a miracle and everyone thought that was a scandalously stupid thing to say
on an entirely unrelated note since 3 weeks ago the CDC no longer requires hospitals to report covid hospitalizations and now biobot is no longer showing covid wastewater data for the US
@eniko It is an election year, he has to freshen up on fucking things up worse that were already at least half fumbles since the relief checks to contrast how great he is.
so apparently the big secret to tasty fries is ... peanut oil. you cook em in peanut oil. or toss them in it and airfry em. that's literally all you need
@eniko ...I Guess. At least as far as if you can't swing Schmaltz, Tallow, Lard, Duck fat, etc---peanut is probably the best non-contrived thing to use for temp resistances and character, especially as compared to soybean and such which is race to the bottom incarnate.
For my birthday, I'd really like it if my beloved fedi could spread word far and wide of Kitsune Tails. It's a platformer with a heartwarming story featuring queer main characters and personal discoveries in classic SMB3 style. You can find trailer, screenshots, and wishlist links here: https://kitsunegames.com/kitsunetails
It's coming out this year and the team and I have been working hard on it for several years now. Most of the team is queer in some form so by boosting you'd not only be making me happy on my birthday, but supporting a bunch of queer creators making queer art as well
@eniko An unfortunate rarely challenged game genre backdrop orientation for games/rpgs, despite being Real in books/P&P. You compromise nothing and have fantasy give way and/or intermingle with sci-fi/high tech doings on a planetary/universe scale. Hard to say what the most prominent would even be games wise...I suppose Star Ocean in a sense.
Chatting with someone in the Discord channel about how certain mechanics should work in SotW, finding issues, and fixing them for the next release, which feels like such a long way off. No new release until music's done, and I refuse to even guess at an ETA for that.
@juliancday Just means it has a chance to accumulate enough to be the first Immense Release in the new year, or next, whichever it happens to work out to be~
