when people ask how i'm doing and i say "i'm alright" that's relative. i live in a near-constant state of tumult.

@sevvie it's already begun

@BlinkRape haven't there been like, 3 "final miyazaki films" at this point?

@GrungeQueef >who in their right mind

@xianc78 so what you're looking for are new memes, not necessarily "original" memes.

@xianc78 one can hope we get some explanation at some point on where the game is in the timeline because it's a clusterfuck right now.

i think TP could feasibly be a prequel to ALttP. the downfall timeline was a way of saying "this is everything before we had an idea of what we wanted the overall story to be" because after ocarina they actually had pretty clear ways for the story to go. it probably would have been better to not include those games in the timeline at all, give them their own place, because it doesn't make any sense that two timelines would be spawned due to time travel with one timeline being a purely hypothetical one. the downfall timeline is pretty much the "non-canon" timeline because of that. it would have been better to say those games were only canon to themselves, and that ocarina of time essentially was a reboot.

which could be basically what they're doing here with BotW and TotK, but it's made more confusing by the fact that it still references all of the old games and even uses common terminology like "the imprisoning war" despite it being a completely different war from the imprisoning war we had known before.

the story of botw and totk is serviceable by itself, but trying to fit it in the broader zelda mythos makes it seem pretty poor. i'm still looking forward to see how the zelda lore youtubers try to fit all the puzzle pieces together, though, or at least what they have to say about it.

tears of the kingdom reminds me of kingdom hearts 3 in a way, in that the fans hoped to get a lot of things about the story cleared up after such a long amount of time had passed, but they were only given more things to think about. it's in pretty poor form, imo.

botw/totk is certainly supposed to be a soft reboot. there's not really another way of looking at it.

@alke now i'm home on my IPS display i can see it, was on my phone earlier.

@xianc78 would you pay for and run an AI service to do that for people that wanted to use it? or have it run locally and require a decent amount of horsepower to be used any time you loaded a website with images? i feel like it would bog down your system quite a bit if it were run locally, and obviously the cost would be a pretty penny if you were running it for other people to use.

nothing new is original, including memes. they are thoughts that enter into the world already built upon previous thoughts from others, which were already built on previous thoughts. if you find them annoying then that's fine i guess, but if you want all the non-original shit filtered out then where exactly do you draw the line? how far does something have to deviate from the original to become original again?

@dookie they're all from baraag.net, mostly loli artists. Pawoo.net too, but it's Japanese so it doesn't make it easy to find stuff. It also kinda glows. Mastodon.art has more "normal" art but don't expect them to be able to reply to you.

The other place I go for art though is Newgrounds, which doesn't allow loli at all, and there are a pretty good chunk of artists there.

Unfortunately there are way too many that are still stuck on Twitter.

@alke yeah I can't see it at all lol

@Youngblood @LukeAlmighty @c it was started by some guy getting triggered by a Pokémon game showing the male and female signs under the classification of "gender" instead of "sex"

Not even what the original post was about

Nevermind it started raining before I could even leave the house.

Weather is shit again but I'm gonna go play anyway, hopefully I don't get rained out.
