@Xephyon thought she was at THAT pool for a second

@prettygood my 2025 roadmap ended up being way fuckin different than i thought it would be, but i started learning japanese and going to the gym so i'm pretty happy about that.

Oh fuck Tron Ares in less than a week.
Even if the movie turns out to be shit at least I get to spend some time with my dad and my bro.

0/10 bullshit modern woke feminist propaganda liberal agenda #woke #gowokegobroke #mgtow #nonbuynary

@Immahnoob everyone saying this is missing some extremely key points.

the girl "taking her time" exists in the same body as the girl wanting to devote herself to kotoyuki, the man she was going to be married to in an arranged marriage. the same girl who defended kotoyuki just wanting to be together with her and be happy.

this "taking her time" is not the modern day equivalent of "taking her time." hinako was going to go into a forced marriage because her dad had debts he needed to pay off, and is legitimately scared about getting married due to everything she's seen with her own parents + how she was treated in 1960s JAPAN as a tomboy instead of a little perfect princess.

kotoyuki comes to the realization that, although he is extremely passionate for hinako, they barely actually know each other. they both agree that they need to wait a bit longer before marrying and they begin actually getting to know each other first.

hinako straight up tells kotoyuki "if the love you have for us was real, then i hope we can meet again. we'll think it through, slowly and carefully. we'll have our answer ready."

on top of all of this, if you want to go with the interpretation that the spiritual parts are far more real and not just hallucinated, which as far as i can tell so far the game leaves pretty vague, there is an ancient "spell" that causes kotoyuki to be extremely invested in hinako. he says that he wants to make sure his love for her is actually real and not just some spell binding them. reminds me a little bit of the witcher with yennefer and geralt actually.

the more "hallucination" interpretation of this would be that the "spell" is his strict mother (which is a whole other aspect of this story) and hinako's parents both trying to get them married, and that pressure to do so is hastening the pace so it feels like a spell has been cast.

people are looking at this game through way too much of a modern day political lens, absolutely brain rotted by other actually woke games. there is so much focus on hinako being some girlboss or something like that without taking *any* of the extra context in.

i don't know if people just have not gone through anything even remotely similar to what hinako has and so they just don't get it, or they are lacking something that lets them empathize with the character, or if they do empathize with the character and are just distancing themselves, or what. i'm sure the vast majority of people talking about it haven't played the game, haven't dove into the story as was intended by the writer, and are probably just being reactionary as a defense mechanism. youtubers doing it are probably just ragebaiting, whether they know it or not.

@xianc78 it always sounds really cringe imo lol. They make these really good songs with strong melodies and then have a singer just sing the most retarded shit known to man directly on top of that melody.

@matrix fatal frame 2 is actually a remake of a remake!

Alright, shf playthrough #2. This time with a bunch of mods to make it easier lmao. Just trying to get the story, don't really care about going through the whole gameplay experience again.

Yo dudes the Supporter Pack for my game is on sale right now for $5 for the autumn sale!

I'm actually kind of dying to get home to play silent hill f again. I was enjoying it quite a bit.

@SuperSnekFriend @sun although I will say a lot of this is still pretty fucking unattainable for a lot of people. It's just that it isn't this much, which makes it even worse tbh.

@SuperSnekFriend @sun yeah new car every five years is fucking ridiculous lol.

Also who the fuck is spending 38k on their wedding? Are they saying like, if you have two daughters and have to pay for their entire weddings you'll be paying that much? Weddings aren't THAT expensive. You can get a wedding done for under $10k easy.

Also I do not think that taking yearly vacations that cost a lot of money is part of the American dream. Not every single vacation has to be going to fucking Disneyland. A lot of our family vacations were things like driving to a different state to go see family for a while, or going to a national park, or even just renting a hotel room for a couple nights and chilling out. Even when we went to Vegas it was like, pretty cheap relative to whatever the fuck this is. For a family of 6, mind you.

Paying for a house isn't that much money either, tbh. Even around here where it is pretty expensive, something like a 4 bedroom is like $600k. There are places in the US that are half that cost. Unless they are adding like, maintenance costs in there I guess? But a good amount of that shit you can just do yourself anyway.

This kind of smells of propaganda to me.

If you can only watch one horror movie this upcoming spooky month, let it be As Above So Below. It's an awesome adventure movie that takes place in the Paris Catacombs. It was the first movie officially allowed to be filmed there, and even has footage from the restricted areas!

The movie reminds me a lot of Uncharted, where the main character (who is a mix between charming, batshit insane, and intelligent) goes searching for an ancient relic and ends up getting way more than they bargained for. In this case, it is the Philosopher's Stone.

It was pretty universally panned by critics and audiences, getting some really low scores. However, everybody I have shown the movie to has really loved it and has proceeded to show it to their friends as well.

I really love the horror genre, but horror movies have always been really underwhelming for me. I think it's mostly because they just don't scare me... they don't really get under my skin at all. This one doesn't do that either, but the actual story going on here is way cool. So if you find yourself in the same boat, and you also like shit like Uncharted/Indiana Jones/Tomb Raider, you'll probably love this.

You can watch it on YouTube with ads in DVD quality. Brave will let you skip the ads. Just giving an easy link here for those that don't want to go searching for it. Not sure if it is on any streaming platforms. Just find a way to watch it. This movie is fucking awesome.

@LukeAlmighty for fun. Just because you have no use or interest in something doesn't mean other people won't. Miis are funny little guys.

Someone is making a Mii app for PC that you can use to export models and pictures of your Mii. Apparently they can also be used in other apps/games in the future.

@anemone @vriska I would wager to say a massive amount of the right is not the same as the right in the 80s and 90s that was all about the satanic panic and violent video games shit. Myself and pretty much all the guys I know irl would have been considered liberals 20 years ago.

Unlike what the right censored back then, and what the left began to censor, what is being taken action against right now is not benign. It is pulling back the curtain on extremist viewpoints that wish death on a major portion of the population. I think that's a little different.

That being said, if anyone has a full clip of exactly what Jimmy said, I would love to see it. I don't know what was said exactly. There is such a thing as dark, edgy humor and if that is what he's getting in trouble for that's a different thing entirely. Poor taste, but still.

@LukeAlmighty noble canines

@LukeAlmighty same energy

@lain I'm playing dj max respect v rn, got it for $5. Pretty fun.
