i think its the fact that they turn their destructiveness into a game that i cant get over
oit is the internets fault though. people have just grown to expect things to exist to entertain them. call everything the sillies(tm) and never actually care about their well being
i appreciate it
the problem more is that this is other people's definition of reality. their perceptions of fiction has surpassed reality and it is actively harming living things. and i dont know how to deal with that. i know i cant do anything but they are absolutely selfish and its...
idk i think im the only person who isnt able to cope with what other people do and say online
im slowly losing my mind by the way people act like wildlife exists to entertain them
no one else seems to have a problemw tih it so ig im an asshole and i wish i could surrender the **** i care about...
I'm not sure if it's the same thing but I notice I often overreact to things that don't even bother me that much because I feel lonely in my thoughts and want to let them out somehow. Kind of have been doing it more than normal lately as well.
The recent incident in that one discord server...
ZD's discord was a haven for banned users on the forum with no interest in the discord server's staff being willing to do anything about it because the forum is so separate from the main site and discord.
Discord hasn't prompted me to relinquish my individuality yet but people who've joined after me have already gotten to :suspicious:
Even their slow rollout isn't happening the way they said it would. Incredible.
Woke up to someone tagging me on Twitter to identify a sawfly... like, me specifically. Of all the people to tag who may know sawflies, they tagged me. Felt weird. I ended up tagging some guys in Europe to confirm cuz it's a European species, but it's still weird.
I ended up messaging one of...
still havent been brave enough to go upstairs since getting crutches... what if i fall and get even more hurt
maybe its the way im flexing my arm but its kind of pressing into the muscle under my right armpit and it sucks
really wish trinity trigger didnt release so close to totk... i wanna order the collectors edition for it but i dont want to be judged for not playing it right away... ah yes the pressures of having to run my physical game purchases through my dad is him asking me why im not playing my new game (:
Why are there so many splatooners with screen names about toes today? This is the fourth one... Glad ZD is performing decently enough for me to document this mysterious toe phenomenon...
It's world robber fly day which means I'm going to be looking at robber flies online all day (not that I have a choice since it's rainy so I can't go out photographing anything).
Not really leery of spoilers on Tears of the Kingdom per se but now that gameplay vids are starting to circle around, I think I want to dip from the content coverage. It's only like two more weeks, see if I can dodge it for that long.
Finally made an iNaturalist account. Probably won't be submitting observations right away, considering I still havent updated my flickr account either.... but anyway... Looking at the date, it just smacked me in the face that today was the day I joined Zelda Universe so I guess that's...
Thinking I'm just gonna give up on holding out for the collectors edition of Tears of the Kingdom and preorder the standard edition. Nintendo's stupid and hopefully they just release a big book like Creating a Champion later on that has all the art that's being held for ransom by scalpers so I...
Will be following this closely but I would think the person who actually observed it would have priority if it is indeed a new species. Still pretty cool; this is why programs like iNaturalist are great because like a lot of casual observations could be people unknowingly observing something...
Holy ****, so yesterday I was helping someone on discord figure out what sort of moth they photographed. I found the family rather quickly, we sort of looked through some genera, settled for one. Couldn't figure out species. They put it up as an observation on iNaturalist just to genus level...
Chair was making noise so I reached into it to see if I could like, find what was rubbing together to cause it and... spring popped out... Wanna try to see if I can fix it but my mom is in the room and I don't want her to know I accidentally broke her chair.......
i dont believe i ever said it was a problem my guy
was just an observation like how indie devs sure love farming sims
addendum: however, the fans that do *that* can also end up indie devs so thanks for that
We have a freeze warning for tonight... thinking about how today might be my last chance to get photos of the spring blossoms. Haven't gotten to go for a walk the past few days cuz of the rain, so hopefully I can make up for it today.
Yeah I don't know how they feel about me. Big thing is they are an artist with a fairly good folllowing so I'm not even sure if they are too keen to add people like that... but there's no way for me to know without sending, but in a way I would prefer if they didn't accept it cuz then I wouldnt...
Have a lot of really fun bug related talks with this person in a discord server and I'm like overthinking whether or not I should add them as a contact. I'm just afraid of what would change over dm... only thing is I could probably open up more about what I actually hope to study pertaining to...
It's not having the label that's inherently the problem, it's being obsessed to the point that it defines you. It's good for finding a community but not for basing your self-image around entirely. How the labels compliment us, not how we compliment the label.
Watering down what I said above...
I thought a little honesty would have helped but I think you misunderstood it entirely. But I think it's further making the point. You're focusing too much on the division and not the common ground. I'm not blaming you; it's an invitation to alienate yourself, though, and you may require...
Probably giving unwelcome advice, again, but here goes. I apologize in advance that this may be blunt but I think this is something important you need to think about as soon as possible because the all or nothing mindset you're facing right now is cruel to you.
The problem is you've made these...
If it makes you feel any better, you don't have to feel forced to interpret finding people beautiful as being attracted to them. If it were that black and white then every human person is pansexual. Maybe that is part of what you mean by the internet playing a role in your crisis; I don't know...
What really helped me was honestly taking like practice tests online for my state. It helps to see how those questions are phrased and know what to expect in that regard. It made reviewing a bit more doable for all these years I had to renew my permit...
Met a super cool person in a discord server I'm in whose favorite animals are wasps and centipedes. I wish I could muster the courage to send them a friend request cuz I'd love to just talk and talk and talk about the best animals with them.
Back at my dad's and I'm worried about my red violet... It's the one that's been kind of sick for most of 2022 but I think he might've overwatered it while I was gone... I really really hope the roots don't rot because there's just not enough plant left to try to reroot it yet again. Stress...
Thinking about that weird fourth wall thing in storytelling when things passed off as plotholes or oversights in writing are actually intentional and have a significance to the bigger picture of a story. :eyes: Maybe that's why I find unreliable narrators so interesting.
So tired of seeing comments on Mechina's music *****ing about the lack of harsh vocals on their newer stuff. They're doing a SECOND STORY ARC, and this one is more somber because they're back on earth, the world they lost. These people are such fake fans, lmfao. Can I punch them?
Dumb double post but idc
Reflecting on some of the stuff that happened in the SB tonight and I need to put this someplace. So here goes.
I love y'all here at ZD. Most of you know I'm currently working on a story. But you know, if I ever actually finish it, chances are I won't share it here...
sounds like they want the perks of a one night stand but want the person in their life for more than one night. which you know there are women out there who want that same sort of thing but they move on much faster than men lol.
idk why they;re expecting a long term relationship out of that...
So...
Last night I accidentally stumbled across someone's self-insert ship art with a character I really care about. This is the kind of thing that usually trips my anxiety so hard, but something interesting happened last night. I didn't react at all--my heart rate and body temperature didn't...
I'm probably just gonna settle on Flickr. I've been meaning to put my photos on there anyway but I'm kinda glad I never posted any of my photos on Twitter (with the exception of my profile banner) cuz if there's some dumb risk for privacy issues due to the thing™ then Twitter doesn't deserve to...
Marshmallow was a wasp I had as a pet for awhile last fall. He became a minor ZD celebrity at the time so I didn't clarify, but yeah he was a wasp. His wings were broken and he couldn't fly.
That sucks about the dogs though. I don't have any experience with that sort of thing but I would...
