    How do you prefer to watch your anime?

    Dubbed is easiest. Helps that the quality of them has gone up a lot. My favorite example right now is Zombieland Saga. Whoever voices the band manager deserves some sort of medal. That being said I dont watch nearly as much as I used to. Mostly it's just harder and harder to find anything...

    Have any of used this website for a while but made no friends here?

    It can happen, though it gets more and more rare as the internet devolves. In my experience, like, 18 years ago? Not too hard to make genuine friends on forums. Some I knew for many years, and even met in person. Nowadays? Dont hold your breath. The internet isnt about connections...

    Anyone else into game dev?

    I have some experience when it comes to this, though it's always been with indies and such. Quite a few years ago I was contracted to work on some stuff by an indie studio (Arcen) whose members I'd gotten to know over the years, as I loved their stuff and was always helping with testing. This...

    "The World Of T-Shirts" - An autistic Tik-Tokker been bullied

    Ever heard of the concept of a "LOLcow"? What people do to him, the following and tormenting and egging on, particularly encouraging problematic behavior, sounds like it fits that exact concept. Gonna take a guess and say that some snotwad went and made a profile/page for him somewhere... yep...

    What are you planning on giving the Trick or Treaters?

    We wont be getting any. There's nowhere for them to come from, and certainly no reason for any to travel out here from further away. Absolute middle of nowhere, you see. It's definitely for the best. I'd rather not have my dog have to go through the doorbell ringing every 5 minutes.

    How You Feel About Forums

    As far as I can tell, the actual end result of pretty much all of them is to funnel stupid kids into buying branded nonsense. Which is pretty bad, but there's much, much worse of that sort of thing elsewhere on that site. A rabbit hole best avoided.

    How You Feel About Forums

    Not to mention pointless. Half the time it's like just shouting into the wind. Like, why even bother? At this point, I use a browser extension called Unhook that just removes like 75% of the site's functionality. The comment sections are usually gone for me. Every now and then I get that...

    How You Feel About Forums

    The frustrating part is that I used to hang out online all the time. AIM, mostly, sometimes Yahoo messenger, and a lot of forum use. A lot of important events in my life were triggered / enabled through the interactions I had online and the people I met. I knew a lot of different people for a...

    How You Feel About Forums

    Depends on the forums. I've been doing this for a long time. My first forums were decades ago. What forums are now is a far cry from what they used to be. Used to love forums overall. For all sorts of reasons. Now though, this site is the only one left as far as I'm concerned. All the...

    A fractal object being worked on. I'm not entirely sure where I'm going with this one or how it's going to be used. This editor is specifically designed to make the 3D ones. Dealing with the 2D ones involves a variety of other programs.

    Are you understood?

    No, not at all. And it always seems to push people away. Which is exactly why I'm glad for it. As time goes on, people in general show themselves to be worse and worse, and I want less and less to deal with them in any capacity. Outside of immediate family, of course. Not sure what else to...

    This was complicated to make. I could animate this, but... maybe not right now. I think that's enough mouse use for today.

    Nah, it was tiny. Some sort of bug. I didnt get a good look at it, since I didnt have my glasses on.

    Not so fun moment: Just finish showering, step out of stall, grab towel from the wall rack, feel something bounce off my shoulder... what? Look down, white/gray ball thing wildly rolling back and forth on the floor, NOPE nope nope nope...

    What is family

    Blood ties are really focused on too much in a lot of places. My own blood ties are entirely unknown to me. A total mystery. I was adopted shortly after birth, so there is no genetic connection to anyone in my family. But... that doesnt matter. My parents are still my parents. My brother...
