The Long-Eared Christmas Donkey?

Meh, I use the same super-weak password for tons of sites I don’t give a flying fuck about.

I took all the military opsec and infosec courses, because I was in intel, and my partner is currently an IT security professional, but some accounts just don’t warrant giving a damn.

I don’t use it for anything important, I let my password manager handle those, but bullshit “create an account to checkout” stuff that I use another payment system for? Meh.

This doesn’t seem like news, beyond looking for something to report on.

I love language puns.

Oh! My first dm assigned me the god-like magical being role! It started as a group campaign and ended up being just me and her husband, and I was super new to it, so she wrote out a whole thing that my character was unaware of, and the entire story became finding out about this.

My own backstory probably sucked, but my character was a fire genasi mix who was trained as a mage blade. She was purple with white eyes due to badly botching her familiar summoning spell, so she ended up with a thievy purple monkey (incapable of following directions, unless I critted the roll) instead of the phoenix she was aiming for.

The dm snuck a giant gem into my inventory thanks to that sneaky thieving monkey (which caused a lot of problems, as you can imagine of a familiar that doesn’t obey fucking anything.) it ended up being an artifact from her ancestors, and unlocking the secrets of it brought out my latent goddessness.

So that was a blast.

Thanks for bringing up those memories! It was so long ago now…

It doesn’t. It takes soap to get silicone lube off.

Skill issue.

Use silicone-based lube for water play.

Inappropriately as always ;)

Indeed, it’s never about you.

I used ai image gen back when it first released. I don’t post it, and I was looking for it to do something very specific that it couldn’t, and probably still can’t, do. Fish fins, for example, are a struggle when applied to humans, so mermaids end up a mess. At least back when I was using it to muse, it was a good MUSE, but horrible at making what I had in mind (I’m aphantasic, so I’m not that picky with visuals, but these suuuuucked)

I think I’m separate from what you describe, tho, because I’m using it as a muse (good proportions in different positions and stuff like that) rather than it doing the work for me? Plus being just that once; I’m not doing this actively, but it did help.

But idk, I’ve used ai image gen. I recognize I’m part of the problem, but in my defense that’s all I used it for, and never since that first muse session when ai images were -the thing of the week- where I tried to get ai to do basic things and it couldn’t so I asked for increasingly niche images and it failed at basically every mid-step

I know, I was joking in sort of a not-jokey-very-dry sort of way.

I wish there was a universal (lawl I’m unserious but being very dry about it) tag. Because that stuff doesn’t translate to text well at all.

Such a layer of emotion and presentation behind communication to get around! So difficult! And I have a degree based around doing exactly that…

On a side note, we have dry humor which implies a wet humor and… I’m curious what that is but I sort of don’t want to know…?

Well sure, there used to be a lot more horses that died annually, back when they were a primary means of transport.

Found JD Vance’s Lemmy account!

Domesticated is a bit of a stretch, especially when we often hope they still hunt rodents. 😜

They tolerate us, and maybe often love us, but would not hesitate to survive without us.

Cats are independent people that choose to continue to live with you because it’s nice. Most of them can find a way out if they want it.

Most of us would be more than happy with 100k in the bank, honestly, as long as our society is stable and structured to care for “nonproductives”. Nobody really needs a lot, we just need long-term stability.

Popping my sternum in public is the highlight of existing some days. It’s loud, and alarming.

I learned I could do it a decade back but it takes a super specific position that took me many more years to work out so I could do it on demand. Feels amazing.

My hyper-flexibility is probably to blame for it, but it’s super fun :)

I’m not familiar with that work but based on your presentation, I’d argue that that goo puddle was actually just a phase of being down, like deep depression, because, importantly, he didn’t stay a goo pile. Being down and depressed is fine, life happens, but coming out of it and longing for living life as a result is pretty optimistic. You have to -really believe- things are going to improve to be light, even with someone perfectly optimized to drive you crazy to keep you sane… that doesn’t touch on how it feels. And considering the burden, he was super light about it.

I found lister to be incredibly optimistic. Sure he got down now and then but, like, he’s essentially isolated knowing there isn’t much else coming for him in life (and sure that ends up not being true, due to various shenanigans), so the fact that he keeps going and doesn’t just turn into a puddle of goo is pretty heartening, imho.

Perseverance and stuff. Enjoy what comes because it may be the only good that does.

Proud of you random internet stranger! Keep up the good work! It’s going to be super duper worth it!

Those cats look just like my pair, right down to the size difference.

Super cute judgement :)

I still don’t understand why prom type stuff stops happening after highschool…

Like I have some killer elegant gowns and I have absolutely nowhere to wear them, ever.

Also as an aside, I have my grandmothers monocle, and those things are damned near impossible to get to stay on your eye, because they are heavy and the lenses are thick and obtrusive. I can’t imagine they were actually meant to be worn that way. I’m sure they were and maybe there were different style ones, but just my experience with that one says it wouldn’t have been at all comfortable.
