This is just the latest of a barrage of instances whereupon justice does not compromise at all, regardless of circumstance or side, and moreso upholds the rights of the truly hapless, as well as those who continually campaign for humanity’s good, over those who campaign only for themselves and their ill-gotten wealth and power.

I would also like to add that she’s also in the game Sayonara Wild Hearts as the Narrator herself, as a sort of last-minute addition by the developers at Simogo.

Recently tried out vivid/statis on PC (via my older sister’s (now my younger bro’s) laptop) since last week, even though I’m not that much of a rhythm game enthusiasts, speaking as a young adult keen on exploration and slow-paced music in video games.

For what it’s worth, it just feels and plays quite good, with only four keys to smash and hold note bars to (much like Stepmania and other related RGs, but with the addition of bumper bars), as well as a couple of modes and storyline beats to try and dive deep into, including the tough-as-nails, one-miss-and-you-fail Ultimate mode. And its palette of featured songs are a worthwhile mention, ranging from the slow-paced to the absolute hardcore banger type. And this week, I just scored my first FC on Luminaria (Opening 1), and witnessed the game’s first edition of their tournament DUALIZED ASCENSIA unfold, from start to finish. Reeked of adrenaline-fueled fun and competition.

That being said, playing through my way on this game deffo improved on my physical reflexes and typing speed quite a bit, even though I get grades lower than A on certain harder charts. I guess we will see if I can achieve my first V grade and complete Class 1 in Course Mode after a couple more rounds of practice and studying Youtube plays of some of those aforementioned charts.

@HeartyBeast Jokes on you, I already figured out what story’s on its surface (except for spoiler-territory stuff), as well as having indirectly encountered this banger of a rhythm game myself, through two rip vids on both SiIvaGunner and TimmyTurnersGrandDad several weeks ago, of all things.

It would be mostly this song by Filipino band Over October, even though this could also apply to those missing their own parents or siblings for so long:
Into the Light

Headcase by Derivakat

That would be OMORI, first and foremost.

That alone made me call to mind this rather poignant and moving Dream SMP fansong called “Vantage” by Halfy & Winks (and also a few hundred more teenage and adult musicians and choir tryouts), of which its lyrics could also apply to what’s happening to us, not just in Gaza, but also in Ukraine, and in South Sudan, etc…

And Sweater Month too? How delightfully festive of a side hobby, regardless of climate location.

I also have tried this rather minimalist jotting site called thoughts.page a while back. Moreso a personal repository of rambling, quick thoughts than one alike Tumblr or Cohost, yet it’s generally seamless, most of the time.

Probably Omori, although I haven’t gotten to two of four endings just yet. Its vibes naturally resonated with me over time, even at its darkest moments.

Hey there, also calling back from kbin.social as some of the commenters in this mini-raft.
Although most of the politics posts can be a bit of an eyesore to most of us here, I found comfort in this instance, even going so far as to establish some new mags for my ephemeral interests, one for the musico-archivist Derivakat herself, of which I have grown tired of continually building as my college era began to set in, up until this point.

As for private small-group convos, I’m also mulling moving on to revolt.chat along with a few others in my own Discord server if ever its fires start blazing forth.
