Every so often I'm reminded of how many people don't realize just how high the bar is for indie titles to actually make enough money or gain enough recognition to be sustainable.
Like someone will say "I think it's great that mildly successful indie titles exist that no one has heard of before, such as [multi-award winning indie game that was incredibly financially successful that has had coverage by multiple major news outlets]! It's so nice small indies exist" :)
i made this, like, three or four years ago now and posted it to my main blog, but had to delete it bc it fucking broke the mobile app so it was deleted. I shall share it's majesty with the world once more.
You know I love to look at the tags of people who hates my ships and read all of their takes especially if they feel so morally superior... Of course I'm not interacting with them or picking a fight because it'll be too fucking stupid
But seeing people THAT upset over something that brought me joy? It giving me the kick and makes me giddy. Feeding off their negativity while lounging on my bed and grinning like a maniac... It is delightful...
Especially when they call anyone who dare to ship my favorite ships as 'freak' ohhhh kitten... I'll be upset of you call me 'normal'
god okay. listen to this downward harmonized arpeggio ray and frank play together in bury me in black. this is what frank meant by improving songs based on their current skill level - that riff never sounded like that in the original recording, and you can even tell it’s new by the way ray looks over at frank when it happens. this song was a demo, it was never even a completed track. and here they are 20 years later fucking obliterating the finish line
It’s so true people really are so cruel. I feel so alienated from any sort of community because even in the communities I was a part of before there were still cruel people. And I know people will see this as a condition of being an American or something but people will so needlessly judge and harm and be just EVIL ugh sorry for ranting. Love u and I feel you 😞 I can’t engage I just can’t engage how I used to before things really went to shit and my whole world was turned upside down by someone else’s cruelty
LITERALLYYYY lol like it sounds soooooo joker but ive never been proven wrong. like rarely have i ever meet a well-intentioned person. IDK if it has to do with being neurodivergent and not understanding how neurotypical people express their genuineness and if that's the case hey my bad, but i really don't think i've read it wrong over and over and over. it's so sad it irks me so much it's like cruelty is everywhere 24/7. in a very schoolyard bully mean girl way but also in a very wide scale organized deeply evil way that bleeds through. it's so tiringggg im so sick of it im sick of being around ppl that have been socialised to be dickheads. i've decided i'm going to mirror how ppl treat me down to a T and i'm not going to feel bad about it even a little if they don't like getting a taste of their own medicine tbh. like you said, everyone just livesssss to judge and harm to get ahead and i hate playing that game and even being expected to play it. anyway i'm really sorry you understand where i'm coming from like i wouldn't wish this sense of isolation of anyone lmfao and you do deserve better. i totally hear you and get you about the whole being let down by the communities you are a part of thing, it fucking majorly sucks. when you think you've found a respite in all the madness but it turns out to just be more of the same disappointment. i think it takes your whole life to find the people who are really worth hanging onto, unfortunately. i hate that someone decided to be cruel to you and now you have to carry the weight of that. it's not fair at all. i'm wishing you nothing but healing, warmth and true companionship. x
