My MSB peeve is that I often type out posts, then decide that no one gives a fuck about what I think and I don't care enough to post it regardless, so then I discard my post.

How about a wolf floof? Okay, he's mostly husky, but I'm obsessed with him. The swedish vallhunds are super adorable, too!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I made it safely to Austin! Some car trouble held me up, then my check engine light came back on on the way. I can't wait to replace that car! But I'm here!

Thank you to everyone who helped me get here! I'm super excited for a fresh start.

I know owning a horse is an immense, absolutely ridiculous and indulgent privilege. My inner pragmatist tries to convince me to sell him pretty much every day. But he's the reason I bother existing day to day, and the reason I can picture myself in any sort of future. I'm obsessed with this beast.

My pupper, Loki.

My pony, Talent.

One of my kitties, Octavia.

@wretched So pretty! Black kitties are the best!

I'm all set up to drop Tem off at the vet first thing in the morning!

Tem is coming home today even though he's still not really eating on his own. His vet bill is sitting around $700 after being there since Monday. I really hope he doesn't need to go back!

He's still not out of the woods yet. I'll need to force feed him a 5.5 oz can of food every day until he's eating it himself.

Thank you so much to everyone who's helped us out and kept him in your thoughts. We would still super appreciate it if you could share his page wherever you feel comfortable.

I heard you like cats. And, yes, my horse has a rainbow bit.

In the aftermath of a rapidly spreading virus that shattered the population, Ruins of Pern is set in the precarious beginning of the Third Pass. Pern's remaining dragonriders have consolidated in Fort Weyr due to its proximity to Hold and Hall. Spread far too thin between searching for survivors and keeping the land around Fort safe from Thread, the last remaining Weyr, Hold, and Crafthall must make difficult decisions on how to survive in this impossibly lonely world.

Hello! I've been mulling over this idea for a Pern game for a few years now, and I've finally decided to actually, you know, work on it. There aren't a lot of Pern games around anymore, and I miss them.

I'm at the very, very beginning stages of putting this together, Faraday helped get it all set up just last night, but if you want to come hang, cheer on, or even help out, please feel free to do so!

The turn this thread has taken, which no longer bears much resemblance to what the thread was originally about, has at least been enlightening in answering why I've struggled so hard to connect with many games recently. And perhaps why the ones I did connect with didn't last.

I personally dislike how Scheduled-Plot-Scene heavy games have become. I miss the connections of just collaboratively writing with other people vs participating in what I imagine a RPed tabletop session is like.

But I absolutely understand why it works better for most people.

@rucket said in MUs That We Would Love To Make (But Won't):

Well a more recent show taht could be a cool MU idea, or maybe a seasonal type thing on HorrorMU if that was still going would be that show From.

Yesss. I just told my partner about From as a MU concept the other day.

14 is the only Final Fantasy I've ever played.

I'm on Malboro, nearly finished with Endwalker (gave up for awhile hoping they'd fix the audio issues). Happy to tank or dps, and have a friend who can fill any role.

@solstice said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:

Agggh. I dislike this.

If you come across it in your feed/up next, click on the three dots near the video and select 'don't recommend this channel'.

Youtube considers any engagement (clicking on a video, liking/disliking, leaving any comment) in its algorithm on what to recommend you. It can't tell if you're watching a video you hate accidentally, to be a troll, or because you support the content, and it doesn't care. It just wants you to watch.

My experience of trying to make/maintain MU friends.

Finally managed to email someone about an eval, and their waitlist is through August.

I really just want my brain to not be constantly on fire.

My dog has been living with my parents because my partner and I have been struggling to move somewhere that allows dogs for a variety of reasons. He's been with my parents for way too long, I don't disagree with that. I have almost constant anxiety about it, honestly, and I've been desperately trying not to pass that on to my partner.

For some reason my mom picks tonight, during the holidays, in the middle of winter, right before a blizzard is expected, to be like 'since you haven't found a place you can take your dog yet, you should find him a new permanent home, take him to the shelter, or find a rescue to surrender him to.'

Happy fucking New Year to me, I guess.

Gorgeous!

@crawfish Derovai. I wouldn't claim to know the character at this point, but it was super adorable and honestly seemed in-theme even from what I did know.

I love all of them, though! You can't go wrong with water color + cats, imo!

I haven't played on Arx in ages, but even seeing an OC I created long, long ago pop up was pretty delightful.
