He/they, Ace of ♥ Sometimes I say cool and funny things. Other times? Good luck! Gloriously stupid and stupidly glorious.

Yo? Genuine props to GungHo for fixing up the pronunciations and terminology like this. Reminds me of XSEED doing the same between the (kinda scuffed tbh) PSP localization and the PC one. Also gives me hope that they might bring out a stronger loc for SC.

Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter Ver. 1.07 Legacy Patch featuring several changes to in-game terminology is now live. Thank you for your continued support. Full patch notes: loom.ly/nZ4NYlg

"She X on my Y" doesn't always work with manga titles "She jujutsu on my kaisen" fine. Vague enough, leaves stuff to your imagination. "She chainsaw on my man" pretty good! "She blue on my period" bad. Really bad. "She black on my clover" potentially racist. Very bad.

I left Twitter in 2023, when I realized that Elon's changes had made the site useless for me. I had a half million followers, but his new algorithm drove my engagement numbers down to nothing. I wasn't actually reaching anyone. I was just providing cover for Nazis. So I left. You can too. Honest!

I haven’t been blind to the steady enshittification of Elon’s Twitter, but I’ve been telling myself that I still had a big platform — just under a half million followers — and the growing strength of misinformation on the platform meant I had a duty to stay and push back against it.
Except, as I slowly realized, I don’t have a big platform anymore. Engagement on all my posts is down dramatically under the new system, and a post that would’ve racked up a thousand RTs immediately is now lingering for days with a dozen or so.
I think my fellow (former) big accounts there need to realize that we’re experiencing a bit of a phantom limb syndrome. We still have a big number of followers, but they’re not actually seeing what we post and we’re not remotely having the impact that we once did (or at least thought we did).
Again, all we’re doing is giving our personal seal of approval and a sense of legitimacy to a place that’s rapidly becoming an alt-right hangout of grifters and grievance artists.

"Musk’s meddling in the site’s algorithm to suppress certain kinds of posts and elevate others is well documented. So if your anti-fascist posts on X are still getting views, it’s either because these posts are so toothless as to escape Musk’s notice, or because they are in fact useful to him."

Aromantic and asexual joy is so important, yet it's often overlooked because our identities are viewed as inherently isolating or limiting, which ignores how much love and meaning can exist when you're able to express the weight of connection in the same way that you feel it

Between confirmed titles and speculated ones (don't um actually me), 2027 might end up being FFXIV Evercold Persona 4 Revival Final Fantasy VII Revelation Xenoblade Genesis Persona 6 Kingdom Hearts IV Trails Beyond the Horizon 2 Pokemon WiWa
