Honestly, might be nostalgic for guys, but as a girl who was playing games in this era, it made me feel like I wasn’t a part of the culture, rarely if ever were there ads marketed towards me, but man were there a lot of half naked ladies. Glad we don’t do this as much, but god this caused a lot of younger girls to feel ashamed of playing games “for boys”.

Oooh I’d take Eyes in the Dark!

I’m replaying Omori since I was on laptop/switch friendly games for the past two weeks visiting family, but I didn’t water the flowers my first playthrough so I’m here for the good good ending.

I’ve worked for a few vet clinics over the years and every once in awhile, I’d work with vets that absolutely bring their dog to work under the guise of them being comfort pets. They also absolutely do stress out a lot of animals.

I need to go back to Detention. I was really enjoying it but I think something spooked me too close to bedtime and I hadn’t picked it up since.

I never played the first one past the tutorial because I was younger and it got too scary. I had a forced PC upgrade and got the game for free and probably would have finished by now, but the whole sounds not syncing up is ruining my immersion, so I guess I’ll wait a few more patches.

I know and I’ve downloaded it and tried it so many times over the years, but can’t make it past the tutorial without getting frustrated.

I could never get into it either. People are so so obsessed with this game. They tell you to never look anything up, etc. I’ve tried it on mouse and keyboard, I’ve tried it on controller and the gameplay does not feel right, so I’ve never left the ground tutorial area.

I’m glad dogs are so normalized, this isn’t even a thing anymore. They’ll be just chilling next to their owner.

My pup also got Lyme disease. I thought it was the end, but she recovered so well and we got a few more years together. She was an English bulldog, so a few more years for them is a lot. I know bloodwork is a pain and pricey, but absolutely monitor his kidneys over time, keeping on top of kidney function with Lyme is super helpful. Even when the kidney values are low, there’s prescription diets that can help with everything. (I worked in vet medicine too, so know these things.)

There was actually a whole thing going around in like November/December in the service industry in NYC where they’d be treated for pneumonia, but were told it wasn’t quite pneumonia. They’re pretty convinced at this point it was Covid. One of my friends got hit again in 2021 and said the symptoms were damn near the same.

God I know it’s beside the point, but man that season was such a powerhouse of queens.

I love Nathan and think he can do damn near anything, he was just everyone’s choice for Hal, it’s wild he ended up as Guy.

Imagine finally getting Nathan playing a Green Lantern after being Hal’s dream actor for decades and then he ends up playing Guy.

Yeah, it’s hard to find some of the little random communities (that were my lil spaces to contribute), but I’m enjoying the content much more as a whole. It definitely feels like conversations are stuff you can have, even if you see a post like 2 hours later or whatever.

I’m super happy this exists too. I’m still bouncing around with apps, but I’m enjoying myself and it definitely does feel like a better space.

Oh totally, there’s new stuff popping up everyday, it’ll get there for sure. I definitely enjoy browsing stuff here more, kind of is already giving shades of the things I used to enjoy about reddit.

Yeah, I barely used digg and came onto reddit once it was already a thing, so I haven’t seen something in this early of an iteration. It’s a little exciting to be a part of it. I’m trying to make myself more active/engaging because I do want this to thrive.

Thanks! You too! And yes, exactly that! Plus on reddit, it was so over-saturated that anything you needed to say was already said for the most part.

For me, I was a longtime lurker, so I’m trying my best to come out of my shell and actually comment and have discussions. Overall, I like it so far, I just miss some communities and don’t want to run anything myself.
