to me, online friendships are as real as in-person friendships.

if you’re friends with someone online, even if you haven’t met, don’t be a person that lies, manipulates, or treats your friends like they’re disposable.

beyond a screen, we are REAL people with REAL feelings.

don’t be deceitful. πŸ‘πŸ»

No shade towards the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy I think it does a remarkable job of capturing the feel of the original games while also modernizing them, but it just doesn't hit the same as going back to play the originals when I have the urge to replay Crash Bandicoot games

Replayed Crash Bandicoot 2 Cortex Strikes Back on my PS2 and finally got 100% complete. I could never get the true ending as a kid closest being around 80% with a few tricky gems missing. This was one of my favorite games growing up and while it was a lot harder than I remembered it was just as fun

drawing of palla in which she is wearing her outfit based on her trading card game design, but has her haircut from shadows of valentia. palla has her eyes closed as she calmly holds a sword (based on the one her default alt uses in feh) in front of her in her left hand, and behind her is the lance she has in her official sov artwork

Drawing of Palla for Jeorge Reds for #ArchaneaArtExchange2026! I gave her the outfit based on her TCG design, and her SoV haircut (the latter being part of the request).

This was my first time drawing her, so I had fun. Thank you!

my drawing of Arlen in different classes for the #ArchaneaArtExchange2026

the requester asked for Wendell and Jeorge as other possible prompts and I referenced it picking bishop and sniper (Falcoknight is there because no to genderlocked classes and hero just because)

Pokopia supports physical media in game as it mentions music streaming services all died due to server costs. Ironic given it's only available on a key card cartridge.

So this is a serious thread I've wanted to make for a while, I've mentioned it before but it concerns RSD (Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria), a very underrecognized condition and my struggles with it. I would really appreciate if you took the time to read cause I really don't want it to be ignored. 🧡

Don’t forget to check on those that have gone silent, or that you haven’t heard from in a while. A simple β€œhey, are you okay?” Message really means a lot to me, and I know it’ll mean a lot to other people too.

So please take the time to message those who are quieter than normal πŸ’›

You know what? I'd rather have 1-5 viewers who are REAL PEOPLE. Than to have 100+ bot viewers. And I thought viewbotting was against twitch TOS. No?

Guys, I really need all of the money I can get. My cousin's wanting me to try and move out by March 15th (which is coming up rather soon) or at least try and get a job before then. Unfortunately, literally no place is willing to hire me due to lack of cash register experience. Not only that, but I still haven't heard back from the Social Security Office about my Disability. I'm extremely limited on what I can do due to me having:

- Anxiety,
- Asthma,
- AuDHD,
- Depression,
- C-PTSD (new diagnosis), and
- moderate Scoliosis.

I have no other family to move in with because pretty much all of them have always been verbally abusive to my immediate family and are very big Trump bootlickers, LGBTphobic, and racist af. They don't even know that I'm a gender queer aroace who loves all genders because, otherwise, my situation would get even worse. And I'm already having to go to counseling weekly because of all the trauma I've been having to deal with since I witnessed my brother's death in January 2022 + my mom's death in August 2025 as well as moving out of a physically + mentally abusive household in November 2025.

My cats and I need to get away from the general area we live in here in Illinois - while still being able to actually live here because I genuinely love my doctor, counselor, and case worker - and start anew. I'm tired of being in constant fear for the safety of me and my cats. I'm also tired of having to sacrifice my well-being, happiness, and life for the sake of other people. I need at least $5,000 so that I can get the ball rolling for me and my three cats.

I need help, guys. I legitimately ended up catching SOMETHING last night (sinus infection or the flu) and I can't donate plasma for money until it clears up. I also won't be able to do any job interviews or anything until it clears up, either, so there's that.

Fellas is it tax fraud to have a baby with your partner who lives in a different country so you can claim them as a dependant and get the tax credit

If we were to compare pokemon to fire emblem units. Pidgey and Spearow are Cain and Abel while Farfetch'd is Matthis.

also stop apologizing for taking up space on the internet using YOUR account with the things YOU want to talk about or share

and stop treating your art, writing, gposes, etc as deliverables. it's okay to not post anything for a while. your place in fandom does not have to be earned

My favorite PokΓ©mon: Furfrou

I love the design being simple but very fitting for the region and the trimming aspect is a neat bonus

Feels like a lot of discourse over anything can often be boiled down to people feeling the need to one up each other because it’s gotten to the point where even the way you like something has to be turned into a fucking contest
