/all/ — Overboard

>>3mu5kiz5obt2h
thank you :]

incense powder falls
the warm glow of fading blue
a genuine smile

undying anger
life choking upon itself
to burn everyone

Last days of Summer—
look upon its mighty works,
its white, toothless smiles.

The old world has died
A new one turns upon us
We must kill it too

nvm this game pisses me off

i'm just getting into the art. don't know a thing about layering and pretty much just spray samplers on whenever i'm feeling a bit high brow. i think i tend to like things that ride the line between ordinary and avant garde but i know that's not very helpful. um. white musk and vetiver. sometimes oud. gourmands are okay if they're a bit spicy.
my favorite of all time is probably clandestine laboratories' "ashes." it came to me in a very harrowing time in my life - i was close to dropping out of school, my childhood cat has just died, and though we didn't cremate her it always felt like her when i put it on. felt like the moment in a visual novel where somebody explains shrodinger's cat and you realize ghosts are real. does that make sense. i had to give the bottle to a friend so that it didn't entirely ruin my life. i hope she found a way to do it justice.

in the future i'd like to try some of the agar olfactory <https://agarolfactory.com/> stuff - the concepts seem very cute to me. need to find a good opopanax scent too.

>>3mvzya5k2ej2e
that makes complete sense, thank you for sharing your story. passing things onto others when they're too heavy to hold yourself is always sweet :)

why do you like it

i dont watch anime
if its in manga form and you can vouch for it better than "why havent you watched this yet" i will consume it

Belt-and-Zipper ass Final Fantasy fit.
It looks so cool but also I think it would be uncomfortable to wear and I think the bleached natural fabric is a strange color choice for it, but damned if it doesn't cool.

I do not think they've ever made a uniform cooler than the North Korean traffic cop uniform.

I bought a band shirt back in july thats order was cancelled and refunded and then shipped to me twice. I find this very amusing with the context of waiting on a DID assessment clinic to get back to me and not having done this intentionally.

so cute! in Pali this bug's called indagopaka "indra's watchman"

>>3mtddtvljjs2x
this is good ..

i just really like music video type stuff and i think re-contextualizing things can create lots of strong moods.. also video editing is weirdly fun for me

>>3mtewffelch2t
classic lol

There a banger one cut out of a bunch of edgy anime that's kinda scuffed and for a song of an artist small and in person skewed enough that naming them would be doxxing myself

>>3mtewffelch2t
I fucking love lain at the gay bar, all time great for sure.

I finished the Umineko visual novel recently and have been enjoying digging through the annals of AMV's for the (Not Very Good) anime series, I've found some real gold (ha) in there.

"Kaorin X Sakaki - Truly Madly Deeply" is one of the few amvs that actually tugs at my heart. they're everything to me!!!

>>3mtewffelch2t
it's literally the best video ever made

"Blood Girl - Always Wrong" put me onto Alien 9, and I'll always be grateful for that

"【音ゲーMAD】m1dy Festival【ちびまる子ちゃん】" is another really good one. It reignited my interest in hardcore, which feels like a strange thing to say about a Chibi Maruko-chan AMV ( ´ω`)

Home sick today. Made millet topped with slab of butter and maple syrup

>>3mvnlvoryvk2e
looks delicious. w fall approaching maybe its time for me to get on the millet grind. ive been on barley and split peas lately but ive been looking for a new grain

baking allowed here? i made spiral cookies @u@

>>3mvr3jf5nmc2w
it's not the most inspiring texture. it's like a starchy lumpier oatmeal. im a larper at heart tho. i think it's so cool this was what a lot of asians and asia minors were eating before rice took over

>>3mvsqqjbxcl24
this looks the bomb -- would!

personally don't use this one, but a lot of these manga reader sites have very persnickety drm (I believe fanza has it's own file format for example), if there's no obvious download option then so you'd probably have to use some sort of scrapper to get things off it. Inspect element and finding the img source might also work, but very time consuming as you'd have to do it for each page.

>>3mvlankghdc2c
in some cases there's decrypting scripts floating around for their file formats but I don't know if anyone's bothered to make the same for other sites. People tend to only make them for reader sites that handle R18 stuff.

did you try gallery-dl? it doesnt support all sites but it can undo the drm ghosts-san is talking about. sometimes

>>3mvlankghdc2c
there's a plugin on firefox and chrome called right click borescope that's good for this

>>3mrq5fbkvba22
also needless to say this is looking sooooo good

duhhh i dont know when I'll post this on socmed but i uploaded the first scene of my new game on youtube. it's out next week. rn im going thru and applying graphics to the characters tshirts cuz i didnt have time to do that before my deadline lol (but i got told updating the build is ok yay)

>>3mug2cwt3zd2b
https://applegirlington.itch.io/the-phantom-of-the-opera I did it.

I am a certified "Opossum Ambassador" after joining the Opossum Society of the United States.

They are my favorite and I love them.
They are capable of looking fierce.
They are capable of looking sweet.
I know many cute facts about them because I have loved them for many years.

>>3muvk7ymugc2p
I think Opossum are really cute. I have a memory of one climbing through an apple tree onto the roof by my bedroom window and staring at me in the night eating an apple. Is it true they eat that many ticks, or was that a misrepresentation due to a flawed science test? I like that they play dead. I don't know many facts about them.

My favorite animal is the hare, but everyone knows what a hare is.

My favourite bird is the bearded vulture, or lammergeier.

They eat primarily bones, and drop them on rocks to shatter them and pick out the marrow. They dye themselves red with mud by dustbathing on the cliffs they live on, and have bright red eyes. They remind me of skeksis from the dark crystal, I think they are cool and funny in a muppety way.

Here's a nice webpage with lots more pictures: https://4vultures.org/vultures/bearded-vulture/

Wikipedia:
"The bearded vulture is the only known vertebrate whose diet consists of 70–90% bone."
"The Greek playwright Aeschylus was said to have been killed in 456 or 455 BC by a tortoise dropped by an eagle who mistook his bald head for a stone. If this incident did occur, the bearded vulture is a likely candidate for the "eagle" in this story."
"In Tibet, corpses are fed to this vulture. The rite is called a "sky burial" and is accompanied by prayers and mantras for the deceased person. There is a specialist assigned to this task which occurs high in the mountains where the vultures swoop down to eat the bones. The birds are blessed too. They are called "jagod" in the Tibetan language."

>>3muwfffronk24
So, it is generally agreed that the "Opossums Eat Many Ticks" study is skewed data. They have the capacity to eat many ticks, but if I remember correctly, they determined that this was laboratory bias through the unavailability of other food options, and to contest the narrative the previous study established, they did a scat study on opossums and found that most did not contain tick matter.

I didn't not know the natural coloration of the lammergeier was not that rusty red color, and that this is basically make-up they apply.

That's so metal.

i shot this at the wrong white point and now its blue. not really an edit but it looks cool and weird

i'd like to try doing a proper weird edit soon. i like yours

i was getting really into doing stupid things with darktable recently too

I appreciate the thought out responses, I was definitely reading things that weren't in the posts into them because of my own past experiences, we agree much more than I initially thought, sorry about the confrontational attitude.
Shoutout to nuance fr, I think I just felt a knee-jerk reaction to defend the cringe-kids cuz I was similar myself when I was younger, and I try to push back on my own feelings of rejection of the younger generation because of that. It definitely does make sense for marketing in a post-TikTok world to have these bite sized rough ideas to communicate ideas as quickly as possible, but I agree that we're worse off for it.

i worked in marketing for a bit, and this is maybe the most extreme example of something i've seen people call aesthetic affiliation. by listing a bunch of subcultural labels i.e. "traumacore", pastel gore, and so on - the game markets itself directly to people who identify with those labels. a lot of larger indie games use this strategy because word of mouth is the cheapest form of marketing, and building a community around a recognisable aesthetic is both inexpensive and effective, whether or not the person doing it fully understands the strategy themselves.

this is an unusually concentrated and clumsy example. it seems more concerned with repeatedly validating the reader’s than appealing to anyone outside its intended subculture, although i can respect that commitment to an extent. search visibility is unfortunately extremely important on the modern internet, including steam, and the developer is clearly trying to fill the description with recognisable terms that might improve discoverability. they’re just integrating them very poorly. i'm not fond of this strategy at all and much prefer the tried and true method recent games like "beastfolk barber" implement

>>3muralus42k2z
You've pretty much articulated the first par of what I was gonna say but in much smarter words

It's also realistically the 'capitalism doesn't give people time to think' so going off of those markers is easier than examining the page and reviews to see if you'd like something (at least in theory )

And of course inexperience in the marketing side from the dev, saying what's cool about a thing without just recounting the whole plot and 50 things that do not matter is hard enough if you didn't make the thing, but the author often has a lot of things floating in their brain that make it hard to imagine what it looks like for the audience on a first impression

ive seen friends enjoying this game a lot, the type of friends who would usually be uninterested in a game with this presentation
now im more interested than ever on this so im deff going to try it out (´￢`)

"Liminality, Traumacore"
"Breakcore, Hyperpop, Witch House, and Scenecore music genres to create a Y2K mash of sound-
