This low-effort transmission has bits replaced until no trace of the original remains. The Shitpost of Theseus.
Dr. Nyri A. Bakkalian@riversidewings.bsky.social · 17h agoThis post, transmitted, involves minimal effort, and has bits replaced till none of the original is left. The Shitpost of Theseus.
why did you transition? wrong answers only. All my favorite video essayists transitioned and I didn't want to feel left out.

I love* how doing creative things feels either impossible or trivial with nothing in between. *I do not in fact love this
Flight attendant: Is there a code doctor on board? Me: What, a software engineer? Sure, but... FA: The passenger in 17C crashed production ten minutes after take off and they've already burned their entire annual token budget trying to fix it. Me, sighing: Hoo boy, I'm on my way

Hey there! I only feel like I have value if I'm creating things and refuse to engage on a personal level on this platform so check out this pixel art I made.
Trans Ferdinand || How I Became Invisible@emdashreed.bsky.social · last mo.quote post this with the best imitation of yourself
Working on something simple for a game jam. It's called Dodge The Rain. Rain falls from the sky and... Well, I don't want to spoil it
why did you transition, right answers only I read an article by a trans woman and there were enough similarities to my own life that I asked "if she transitioned what does that say about me"
Tilly Bridges@tillybridges.bsky.social · 2mo agowhy did you transition, right answers only i knew she was in there and keeping her hidden away from the world was too painful to bear

I have Thoughts™ about game design, but they're not refined enough to put into a blog, and putting them into a game is too slow. I don't want to throw them to the Discourse Wolves... Maybe I'll put them out on Mastodon?
What have I been up to recently? Besides survibing, you mean? Well I just got the core customizations of my little RPG Maker game working, so that's pretty exciting #IndieDev

Abi Thorn's Amnesty win came up in a Discord yesterday, leading someone to watch her conversion practices video for the first time and then comment "thats weird, I seem to have broken my mouse in a rage." Anyway I edited a comic about it; enjoy
At some point I'm going to have to stop writing design notes and reading documentation and actually try to prototype this deck.

Okay so I can't get the idea of FF6 protagonists hosting public access TV shows out of my head. We've already got Cyan's meditation show, Relm's "Joy of Painting"-style show, and Setzer is basically Anthony Bourdain
Daphne⭐@daphnestar.com · 3mo agoWelcome back to "Cyan's Meditation Hour." Stay tuned for "Relm Arrowny: Painting Life" at 7:00 and "Around The World With Setzer" at 7:30. You're watching WBRO, Figaro public television
Why are you trans? (Wrong answers only) I played the video game that makes you trans. No, not that one. No, not that one either. That's right it was "Bunny Must Die! Chelsea and the 7 Devils"
Dr. Nyri A. Bakkalian@riversidewings.bsky.social · 3mo agoWhy are you trans? (Wrong answers only) because I'm secretly a Stryker M1128 MGS that went on HRT (Human Resemblance Therapy) and now continues to be a top-heavy overengineered disaster prone to tipping over under the wrong kind of pressure, just in vaguely human form.
I think it's time to start a creative/dev blog. Because I typically have two to five projects going in my head at any given time, and while I like posting WIPs, my energy level waxes and wanes and oftentimes what I've been working on is design work. That's still dev work!

I watched the footage of Orion passing through the dark side of the moon, and of course I teared up a bit. It was beautiful; truly awe inspiring. But I knew to tune in because of folks here gushing about it on their timelines, and that's beautiful too. 💜
