I think it’s time for me to stop paying for Second Life premium and, since most store sales (or all of them) happen on the marketplace (the website), I can just stop having a place in-world

I don’t like SL that much anymore, and OpenSim is much more intriguing

downloaded Delta Force on my phone and apparently it’s not like the 90s game, it’s an extraction shooter

Anyway I dodged bullets from a bunch of 13 y/os and extracted with a ton of loot

I definitely still can’t get hold of Cities Skylines. The game told me to build a canal

So I did

And I accidentally flooded my whole city and ran out of money

We are living in one of the worst of times, and a lot of people are in the worst of their head-spaces, and you have to protect your head-space, because a lot of people will try to wreck it

I think a good exercise for a lot of people online is to remember and keep repeating to yourself, that the people scrolling by on the timeline are not people you know, and you shouldn’t just speak to everyone as if you do know them and they share your ideals

So I’m basically writing this in order to keep the fedi hall monitors, the abusers, and the people who just generally suck, out.

I’m a trans woman (currently closeted), I’m a musician, a writer, a webdev, and have years of experience. I’m behind projects like Eyeshadow 2600 FM (which you may remember from pre-2020 days), and I used to go by “Meryl”. Nowadays it’s mostly “Nova” or “Valerie”

I think geforce now is giving me settings used by other people cause i do not play the ‘search and destroy’ mode, and yet it keeps trying to make me play them

if i wanted counterstrike, i’d load it up, because they don’t have kernel level anticheat
