@MisterBoring Either that or the game just produces the generic “Huh?” ‘I don’t understand’ message until you type it out.

I’m pretty sure we’re all just living in the plot of Wall-E now and I hate it here.

Wall-E and Idiocracy. Yup.

The most recent dream I can remember is: A total stranger abandoned me at a Best Buy because I wouldn’t help them steal car stereo equipment from the store, and so I just hung out in the store until it got dark so I could go home without melting in the heat.

This is so tiny and insignificant and textbook first world but I have no one else who would understand to share it with.

I can’t watch House of the Dragon because I can’t stand seeing dragons get hurt.

I can actually understand that. Mythical critters shouldn’t be treated cruelly any more than actual critters, There needs to be more ‘shoo’ options in video games for that kind of thing.

A couple of days ago I dreamed that I was part of a performance at some kind of arts academy, it was something like the big once-a-year performances those places do. For some reason I was put on the spot and asked to perform a couple of songs before the show started (many of my dreams have a focus on being asked to do something I’m not prepared to do) so I decided to change the lyrics to “Do You Wanna Build a Snowman” to something more thematic, which was nature, and sing that…

Back in the waking world, I was on vacation with my family and thus we were all sharing a room. And that’s how my husband and son got woken up by me shouting “IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE A SQUIRREL” out of nowhere at 8am.

dang, gonna have to remember how to set up a MU client.

@Pavel said in Making MU*s more OOCly Interactive:

Another idea would be to harken back to the 1980s video game scene and include/manufacture the so-called “feelies”—an in character news letter, an actually written (or typed, but with a fancy font) letter from a contact, or similar. Less interactive, but still a neat little novelty that some folks in the TTRPG space use quite effectively.

it’s 2001, and I am updating jubilee’s in-character Livejournal

it’s 2026, and i am suggesting in-character livejournals social media or whatever

congratulations, you all passed age verification.

@junipersky My niece’s 13th birthday is tomorrow. I’m not prepared and yet as the aunt that colors my hair in vivids and owns a ton of makeup and stuff – I’m completely prepared. She’s come a long way from the 8 year old asking me to read her the boob chapter in the ‘my body’ book because you know, I have bigger boobs than the other adults around her so I must understand them better.

Noted: I will remind her of this story tomorrow.
