  • A One Direction Omegaverse noncon is what broke AO3.

    (More specifically the largest ID in a database is 2,147,483,647 so someone placing the last bookmark on a One Direction Omegaverse noncon is what broke AO3 because now they have to migrate their database over to a new structure that can handle the load.)

    The Omegaverse fans have won. You've broken AO3

    I personally wouldn't store bookmarks that way but sure. That's still funny.
    Not me reading BL while reviewing the notes for the project on my new tech job. I've become that queer in the IT space stereotype.
    Yo if you DMed me about a plot and I ghosted you. I'm sorry. I have issues with object permanence. Feel free to poke me if you're still interested.
    Thumb still hurts like a bitch but I need to let it air out to heal or whatever so...
    I cut the absolute shit out of my thumb opening a box. Since I post on mobile replies might be delayed if my thumb keeps bleeding
    At emergency vet with my cat. Apparently my vet thought it was a good idea to try a new flea medication for my cat and he's having a weird reaction to it.
    I've always wanted to try soju but could never find it. Only to find out I had some in my fridge the entire time. Not only that, I'd already drank a bottle of it.
    Gonna be a while until I can reply again. I went to a concert last night and I get a migraine every time from that!
    I'm trying to learn Norwegian and my Norwegian friend that I made on here disappeared. Anyone else know Norwegian that can be by friend? OnO

    I feel like this site has an older base than other sites I've been on, and it's caused a lot more mature of an RP base. Is it just me that feels like they've had this experience? (I mean this in a good way.)

    I just turned 31 and so many people here are 30 or over (which makes sense if I recognize most of you from an old RP site that went down way back in the day) and I'm like "were all just... adults... talking about taxes and stuff... it makes other 18+ sites I've been on feel like... a college campus...

    @thom Maybe they just suck at writing mature characters :) Also not really sure how you'd be able to tell a 19 year old and a 25 year old apart with such certainty. Maturity isn't a linear progression, lol. I've had more 40+ year olds throwing fits in my messages over petty, immature things than people my age or younger but I'm not gonna make sweeping generalisations regardless

    @Sihphae 'I'm 30 and I'm pretty sure all of my RP partners are still ancient older than me lol'

    damn, that's rude. LOL.

    I'm still like... sick. I hate this because I'm not REALLY REALLY sick where I have a fever and stuff. But I'm tired and have a cough and a runny nose. Why!!!
    Update on the momma cat and kitten. Kitten is CONVINCED it's spicy which is funny because as soon as I pick him up he calms down. Like "oh that's so cute". Momma cat is letting me pet her! Kinda! Like a couple pets before it gets to be too much, but that's an improvement!

    I'm spicy too, unless someone larger picks me up. Then I'm just impressed. XD

    Awe, that's sweet. I have a rescue that I adopted. It took several months to gain his trust. Now he's a velcro baby. He follows me everywhere.
    Trying to calm down a feral momma cat is fun because on one hand I gotta test the boundaries to see if she trusts me more. On the other if I'm too daring I will get shredded
    No... no... my body is definitely fighting off an illness of some sort. I'm kinda more tired than usual and my nose is runny and stuffy and my throat kinda hurts.

    I wouldn't say I feel *sick* but I guess my body is definitely trying to fight off an infection so if I disappear or post less often or something you can just assume I did get sick
    I might be getting sick? I thought it was just allergies but I have a swollen lymph node. If I disappear the next few days, I'm probably just sick. I like never get swollen lymph nodes.
    The best part about AI images is they don't seem to understand how human facial expressions work. If you need a character that looks like he ruins your life for fun, find an AI dude smiling.

    It's so uncanny valley

    There is an uncanny valley thing with a lot of their expressions. Their eyes often don't seem to emote properly, there's a weird emptiness in a lot of them.
    I had been working up to the post I'd just written for... probably 6 months?

    Which is funny because it's literally my character making omelets. But what's funny about it is the prices of eggs have probably gone up by 100% since I first started driving the RP towards this post. Now the idea of my character having the money to buy eggs for omelets is probably a testament of his wealth. xD
    I added a plot and added a "things i like and don't like" section to my request thread
    Momma cat is guarding her baby like a fierce lion. Very protective. I'M JUST TRYING TO TAKE CARE OF YOU. YOU'RE SAFER HERE THAN OUT THERE. ALSO YOU CAN'T BE BULLYING THE FERAL CAT.
    UPDATE! MOMMA CAT AQUIRED! VERY UPSET BUT THE BABY IS HAPPY

    Anyone know how to catch a momma cat locked in the garage if you're holding the kitten hostage?

    @Insanity123~ the kitten is big enough to run away but hasn't been weened off his momma yet (he's so fast!)

    We do have a trap with wet food in it. She went in last night, but something got in the way from the trap closing. It didn't seem to scare her. But now we're waiting for her to go back into the trap

    I see. That's all I know for catching mamas sorry.

    I've been teaching him wet kitten food today (he's old enough to eat it). So at least theirs that. First couple of times I had to open his mouth to put the small pieces in. Then I only had to put it in front of his mouth. Then I only had to hold him in front of the wet kitten food. So at least kitten is okay until we get momma.

    She hadn't weened him yet but he's too old for kitten formula. So... doing my best here
    Dude... my sibling called and I tried to call them back and it called someone else? And I'm having an entire D1 crashout over this

    I JUST WANTED TO SAY HI TO MY SIBLING AND IT CALLED A STRANGER. SOME RANDO. I DON'T LIKE TALKING I STRANGERS! THAT SO SCARY.
    I FOUND A LIQUOR STORE THAT HAS GOOD MEAD AND SAKE. THIS IS NOT A DRILL

    never heard of the brand, but i'll try to remember to look into trying it sometime if i can find it. have you ever had Choya Umeshu? it's a delicious Japanese plum wine with a kick. not as strong as Dansk Mjord, but equally as tasty!

    @GinKitsune11220 I've seen it, but that was in an Asian Market that was way down in the Asian part of the city where I live. Not really a safe area to be in after dark, and quite the hike. It's hard to find a place with good Asian alcohol (as a generalized statement) in my part of town. There's a smaller Asian market where I get fresh lychees from, but they don't sell alcohol.

    @GinKitsune11220 Which was why I was so happy to find a place that had good sake (and good mead!) Because good mead is also hard to find. Everyone here drinks beer or wine. (I'm not knocking it, I like a good beer. I just also want mead and sake sometimes.)
    Someone please send help. I was rubbing my eyes because I was stressed at work a couple of days ago and I think I bruised my eyelid or something. It hurts to blink *sobs*

    Try cold compresses/ice and if it's not swollen, you can try warm compresses. That's what we tell our patients :) I hope you feel better!

    @Kouryu-Grin it doesn't feel like that. It feels more like it's bruised. But I don't see physical bruising
    Tldr on the "I'm taking a break because depression". It is not going good. Not only is it not going good but as soon as this is over, I need to hash it out with someone else over how they responded because absolutely not.

    My sister and mother are arguing with me. They're words "if there is no sex it's not a romance book, it's a love story".

    Smut and romance are two different genres. I think because they know I'm asexual they think I'm naive and innocent.

    I feel like romance is to storytelling when RPG is the gaming, it started are it's own thing but as been mixed 8nto some much for so long people have a hard time understanding what is the pure form.

    Also on the smut now be called romance, just another reason to hate 50 shades

    I mean the line between smut and romance can be blurry (there is a great essay from Contrapoints that touches on this among other things but it's like 3 hours long XD) but romance most definitely can be PG13. Also as Kouryu-Grin pointed out, there's no "love story" genre XD
    Update on the romance book.

    The main couple fall in love over a kitten that needs an asshole.

    I wish I was joking...
    My step mom found a weird cheezy romance novel that I guess she liked and decided to send to everyone. So I guess I'll be in the mood for cheezy romance for the next indeterminate amount of time
