Favorite VGM thread:
1. Wave Ocean (Sonic 2006)
This is genuinely such a feel good song. From the instrumentation (That drum roll in the beginning is my absolute favorite) to the composition (rare for me to enjoy something in a major key) I don't think I can ever skip it
I'm waiting on a model commission and I cannot shut the fuck up about how happy I am with how it's turning out. (Also this Is one of the alt variants from my ectospasm remix)
They made slight changes to his dimensions (which I'd say are hard to tell, but that's probably for the best) So next I'll be waiting for an email from the rep to coordinate the campaign's launch page.
I'll have to be very annoying about promoting this. I want it to be funded!
I cannot stress this enough I'm NOT going to inspect someone's profile to make sure they're squeaky clean before I like a post lmao
One day this website will learn that liking a post does not mean we agree with everything they say and every belief they've ever had lol
Alright, I got Cities Skylines 2 at ~60fps at 4k with these settings. It's not the prettiest, but it will get the job done. Hopefully, patches will make things better later down the line.
It will get lower as the city gets bigger, but at least it starts with ~60fps and not 10
Guilt by association is probably one of my biggest fears because I'm not constantly updated with what my mutuals are doing, so God forbid one of them gets called out for some fuckshit, I'll be thrown under for following them and not knowing about it π
Teaching kids that it's okay to LOVE anyone regardless of gender would've helped a lot of us including myself accept ourselves way quicker. This is about who you LOVE and who you ARE.
Reducing queerness to just sex is just bad faith and we see right through it.
A friend of mine has to draw portraits of Ace without his shirt for week 3 because changing to iceolation, he tears his clothes. He accidentally made him jacked and it's so funny
We're so going to be accused of trying to thirst trap for sure π
"If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all"
Is really a nice way of saying
"if you can't handle someone disagreeing with your shit opinion then shut up"
Oh yeah it passed 1.2k likes and already saw *those* kinds of fnf fans replying. Not looking back now, it's been fun
Never retweet my tweets again y'all it's not worth it /j
I used to be those "not like other furries" types of people. But the thing about it is, if someone generalizes you without even giving you a chance to define YOURSELF, they weren't going to like you anyway. That or you'd need to walk on eggshells around them, it's not worth it.
Ah that's a shame. Might have to save videos like this for the archive channel or patreon if I want to keep working on building momentum for the main channel
No biggie. Experiments like this are what help me figure out how I should climb out of this rut
I will say this until the end of time. People play up negativity because they feel smart doing so. They feel like they're making a statement by speaking out against things often. I know because I stopped doing this at 15 years old
It's a shame some people never grow out of it
I've told my mom this before, when dealing with these companies that do not give a shit about anyone, you have to be annoying. Not mean, but annoying. Call over and over and over again because shit won't get done otherwise. I need to apply this now.
Rip Omegle and all the guys who were jacking off on camera, realize Im a guy and panic to find the disconnect button
Never knew how they expected a girl to like this stuff but hey it was funny at least
Seeing retros video turn around after he changed the title to something more sensationalized and clickbaity is, while I'm happy that it worked for him, harrowing to see.
Really seems like clickbait is the only way to get people to give something new a try.
As silly as it sounds, that "you die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain" quote strangely applies pretty well to content creators.
You either fade into obscurity unproblematic, or be a public figure for so long you'll have a career ending controversy
i like how when oras came out, no one tried to pull the "they are changing prexisting characters, i hate sjws grr" because look at this shit, it speaks for itself
The way "Fans" treat content creators is downright disgusting and we should be allowed to call it out without anyone going "b-but muh power dynamic" Nah some of you need to learn about consequences the hard way.
Language is incredible. Because we don't think about the rules of our native language at all.
For example, when someone pointed out that we use the words "this" or "that" based on proximity (how close or far) of the subject, that blew my mind. I never even thought about it
Shoutout to my family who were confused as to why I asked them to turn around and face the light when I was taking a group photo of them.
They also wondered why I didn't use flash. No wonder y'all facebook photos look like ass LMAO
One step closer to week 3 being done. We need like 4 more dialogue sprites and 2 charts (of which are just normal/easy versions of an already existing chart) hooooly shit
"no offense but"
"I'm sorry but"
"Please don't hate me but"
For the love of god, just commit to the joke you're about to make. Full on disclaimers completely kill the humor
Walking home from the store and I see this in front of my apartment. I thought that was miles and he escaped or something. I almost had a heart attack lmao
I bought Yamaha HS7s for music production last year. I had to stop using them because I got a noise complaint from a neighbor who has an infant with a room right below mine. I couldn't even use them during the day. They moved out so I can finally use them thank god lol (old pic)
For those who followed before the revamp, I'm gonna use this account for more random/personal thoughts. It seems like I should reserve art posts/posts about what I'm doing on main. I feel like it was too public for me to be as personal as I was.
I told retro I switched to a small 1080p monitor temporarily so when I get the new one (32 inch and 4k) it will feel like a massive upgrade
He said "You're edging yourself using technology???" And I thought that was genius
I don't like forced positivity, but it's absolutely exhausting seeing nothing but ragebait be the only thing that works for people to actually pay attention to anything. Don't you guys get tired of negativity all the time?
I used to type extremely expressive using all kinds of emoticons and stuff but I noticed it attracts really weird people, so my typing is a lot colder now lmao.
Sorry if it puts anyone off, it's sort of a defense mechanism. I'm completely different in voice lol
I used to be the guy that wanted to be "different" from other creators by trying to be friends with everyone. But it's genuinely really difficult to the point where I've burnt myself out and can't really handle more than a few interactions at once. ADHD moment
You know seeing that the worst thing Fnf randoms can think of when clowning on my mod is that it's boring and irrelevant means they couldn't even bring themselves to say the music is bad. Because they know that's not true lmao
There are some days where I feel like superman. Like I can handle four conversations at once, do a ton of chores draw a couple things, make music all in one day. And then other days where I can only watch YouTube all day and if a single person DMS me I will explode lmao
One secret benefit to having a mini fridge in my room aside from keeping my sodas away from the monster I live with, is having a nice low hum as ambience while I sleep lmao
Every time I hear about someone making a massive deal out of Ace having nsfw it's funny to me. I do a pretty good job keeping sfw and nsfw stuff separate so it's your job to just not look for it. If the fact that it exists ruins things for you then idk cry about it lol
All these ads and I've never made more than minimum wage in a month for my entire career on youtube. This is why I don't give a flying fuck if people use ad block. I'd rather them stream my music on spotify, at least they pay decently lmao
I think what I hate about this site the most is how much people try to find a morally charged reason to dislike someone. So they just make it up and usually it's something ridiculous.
You can just dislike someone. It's okay. You don't have to make something up to justify it.
You know, it's interesting. While I get a lot less views on my original stuff, the support on there feels so much more genuine. I wonder if it's because it's an entirely different demographic. Like people who enjoy my original work are clearly there for me and my vision.
One thing I need to improve on is marketing. I need to be annoying, I need to remind people of things. Announcing things just once is not going to cut it. The internet is big, it's loud and info gets buried right away.
I can't be afraid to post multiple reminders
This sounds like a joke but the IRS has doubled down and wants another explanation for my "unreported income" which is literally just PayPal and Google used as services to pay me with, but they think it's all separate income.
I'm gonna have to speak to a local Tax filer
I've noticed things feel a little better when I open my curtains and blinds during the day. I know it sounds silly, but it's a small, easy change that can probably help
Man, living in a car dependent country sucks. Like sometimes I just want to take a walk to a store but I'd have to be walking through highways for like 35 minutes just to get to a Walmart, never mind a store that's actually interesting lol
You know, I don't think I give myself enough credit. I release some original music every once in a while, I'm making videos talking about things I love (this time's gonna be about flashgames), Making my own VN, and the next fnf mod update will be the biggest one yet.
Every time I walk into retro's room and hear his jet engine sounding ass PC I'm reminded I need to take a look inside and see what the hell is going on, but I keep forgetting when I actually have a chance to lmao
As much as I want to uplift people I care about, it gets exhausting when they constantly berate themselves or make "Jokes" at their own expense all the time. Like alright man you win I give up π
I have some mutuals who are in the exe community so I get a glimpse of what it's like.
Genesis telling me not to post the commission I made for them because of how insane the community is saved my ass more than I initially thought lmao
Itβs genuinely why itβs hard for me to take the general Publicβs opinion seriously when it comes to media. They genuinely donβt know what they like and they typically follow the opinion with the most likes Lmao
I see this so often
> game comes out, is heavily criticized, general concensus is its bad
> 5-10 years pass
> public opinion takes a 180 and calls it a hidden gem, an underrated masterpiece, always been good actually
and every time I feel like I'm going crazy
Completely forgot about the Era of youtube where literally any monotone person with a mic decided to shout their opinions loud enough and magically gained "Authority" (mainly from teenagers who couldn't form their own opinions but-). So glad that's for the most part over lol
It seems silly, but it feels a lot more rewarding when your expectations are reset on a new channel. I actually feel a lot better about 500 views on a 2000 sub channel than 2000 views on a 230,000 sub channel
"can't take criticism/opinions?" often feels like it's to cover their ass so they can say whatever they want to others without repercussions.
Be the tough guy you claim to be and accept the consequences of ignorantly running your mouth lol
God this is sick. Wish I had a bigger CRT tv (only got a 13 inch) but it's cool to play this on the original hardware
Mom got this from an old guy she built a fence for I think
I've noticed engagement is a lot higher when the post is art of Ace. Makes me happy people seem to like him a lot! The character means a lot to me, honestly. It's my sona that I've had for 8 years now
βYou might like this post shitting on you specificallyβ thanks, twitter lol.
Apparently the person ended up retracting their statement because they realize their bad experience doesnβt paint an entire group of people. What a shocker
People need to think about their replies with the idea that the person they're responding to will actually see it (even if they're an "influencer"). Guys, my notifications don't get flooded, I see your replies.
I don't even bother commenting on YouTube videos I enjoy anymore because it's just tiring seeing this in the replies almost every time.
"Anti-furries" or whatever these "people" call themselves seem more mentally ill than the people they condemn.
tbh I'm starting to hate the "Y'all remember when-" kinds of posts because it's usually just bringing up someone getting clowned over a tweet leaving their target audience for the umpteenth time. It's just annoying to see over and over again.
Maybe it's impostor syndrome talking but its very weird to me that I don't think I've ever seen any other musician dis my production quality or even criticize it harshly. Yeah people have negatively talked on my work before but usually it wasn't in good faith so I discard it
Been playing the first resident evil remake (2002) and I genuinely love the way they do horror. No jumpscares, just suspense and atmosphere. Surprisingly easy to jump back into after not playing for a while too
Feels like this site has been getting worse with people acting out their high school mean girl fantasies lately.
Like ma'am you're 25. The time has passed a decade ago
Me: "why don't I update my Instagram where my irl friends and family are?"
>Remembers I'm a whole ass bisexual who has been living with my boyfriend for 3 years
Ah right π
a while ago I had a chat with a friend about the games I play, and I listed Cities skylines, Forza, house flipper, Flight simulator etc.
He said I play the same games his dad plays πI'm really not beating the 26+ year old dad allegations
Shoutout to those older relatives who get extremely offended when you wipe your face after a kiss. Ma'am I do not like the feeling of your saliva residue on my skin. I'm sorry?
for Autism Acceptance Month I want people to know that wet kisses on face are gross for some folks & I couldnβt tell adults this for way too long
I know this will upset the normies but you need to know thatβs a far more likely explanation here, sorry
Seeing a lot of notifications on any other social media: Oh cool, a post did well!
Seeing a lot of notifications on Twitter: Oh god who did I piss off now
Okay I know why I think breakfast food is boring. Because we keep going to places that only really serve pancakes and stuff lol
This was amazing. Crab eggs Benedict
For the past couple of years now I've felt a loss of passion for work due to the monotony of remixing videogame music, hoping for it to do well and then moving on to the next. I think I've overstayed on trying to make this work and it's time I try something new.
(more personal) I've been a bit tired of my success being based on other people's work [The spark for remixes is just not what it used to be] and I want to finally create my own thing. While writing stories is a bit ambitious, I'd like to break from this remixing monotony.
