Nice to meet you, Emric

Not sure why you got downvoted, assuming you were just pointing out how interesting it is that people in tech tend to be more critical of tech and aware of the issues it can have or cause

To tune out and reset my mental and emotional state: Most anything by Paleowolf

To restore hope and interest in seeking good things from life:

• Rainbow Connection by Kermit the Frog
• Glorious Dawn by Melodysheep
• Nightswimming by R.E.M. (This one can be risky though, sometimes it makes me feel even more nostalgia-sad.)

The goofy answer: https://alvinisemo.ytmnd.com/

Dude looks like he’s got it all figured out.

I don’t know man, I’m still an amateur on this whole scene, admittedly. I do know that when my loved ones are put at risk I’m not just going to shrug and say, “guess this is just how it’s gonna be, voters voted for it.” It’s unsurprisingly feeling just like the last time Trump was in power. I happen to be of a demographic that is at minimal risk personally, but my neighbors are being threatened and their property has been vandalized with hate speech. They’re scared to leave the house. I’ve got family and friends being told they don’t deserve to have the same rights as everyone else and targeted by open acts of hatred. A lot of Americans may have voted in support of this kind of thing, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to just shut up, roll over, and accept it. If that’s considered throwing a tantrum, then okay. I would expect anyone to throw such a tantrum in the same kind of circumstances, including my political opposites.

I see all these comments roasting the protestors, but I’m just glad people are angry. It would have been great if the election went differently, but it didn’t, and we are where we are. Support people getting mad with how things turned out. Stop acting like all these people did nothing until now. I voted, and I’m protesting. I’ll happily welcome non voters in the protests too. Turn your frustration and anger against the people you oppose instead of willing allies.

Awww, I want to pet it. Looks great!

Looks awesome! How did the encounter go?

I just like that it looks like a cuttlefish.

I loved 8! I got so into the characters and their stories. I was always excited to see more Laguna & Co. I remember downloading the Eyes On You song, probably off one of those sketchy P2P music sharing services.

Vagrant Story takes place in Ivalice as well and is the only game I’d say I love as much as Tactics when it comes to sheer vibe/atmosphere. The opening gameplay sequence is amazing.

Yeah dude, Tactics was incredible. Art style, music, gameplay, story, just the vibe, man. My only beef is that it had the typical FF ending feeling of getting too sort of “out there”. Went from a very human story to the typical third act of oh now there’s some big weird big bad I have no emotional investment in to pose a more serious threat I guess.

Agrias remains one of my all time favorite characters.

Screw Algus.

I laughed, but I wasn’t happy about it.

We should be best friends. 👊

This is one of the most fascinating comments I’ve ever encountered on Lemmy

I’m so glad to be seeing small and indie web stuff so often lately. I never played with gopher and Gemini. Today might be the day.

Thank you! It’s a lot of fun to use this old software and to see how people can still appreciate what it produces despite being ~35 years obsolete.

How dare he?

Beautiful. I’ve stalked through your history for some of your other art shares after recognizing your name a couple times here, love your stuff!

Right? Can’t wait to get more answers and even more questions. Wonder what the next world’s theme will be. T.V.?
