00:08 <Schism> Seriously, '5G signals cause feminization' is an actual conspiracy theory.
00:09 <Librarian> thta would be great for the trans community
00:09 <Librarian> save a lot of hassle
00:09 <Librarian> 20 minutes on the 5g room, save on girlpills
00:09 <Schism> Also seems to cause people to receive cheques from George Soros, so yay for that.
00:11 <Librarian> george soros, that is brought up a lot
00:11 <Librarian> jewish billionaire if i remember correctly
00:11 <Librarian> these conspiracy guys, classy group them

00:25 * uni nyams somininin
00:25 <uni> heyo!
00:25 <uni> all I need to acquire is a darkroom bag and my setup is complete~
00:25 <somininin> Hoy uni
00:26 <somininin> Its not about selling, you make yourself insane if you expect that.
00:26 <Librarian> its not about selling, its about sending a message
00:26 <somininin> Friend of mine made a game, 3 years of work, he got 12 downloads.
00:27 <Librarian> i plan on making more books, not really worried
00:28 <Librarian> ill be succesfull eventually, im nothing if not stubborn
00:28 <somininin> I tried starting to write but i always get stuck at the beginning.
00:29 <Librarian> its hard
00:29 <somininin> Like one sci fi novel, i have the story developed enough to make 10 chapters but i am stuck in the third because i cant find a way to blend over a scene.
00:29 <somininin> Ppl actually wanted to pay me to continue it.
00:30 <Librarian> write a full draft , no edition
00:30 <Librarian> then work on it
00:30 <somininin> uni i just got a roll back, experimental, redscale, i think there is only one shot on the whole roll that looks acceptable.
00:31 <somininin> Yea write, stop thinking.
00:31 <Librarian> not quite
00:31 <somininin> 10 pages of egfhnschfglosiaergnogfclqdnoertalnsopbgclosn tadiegonsclo :D
00:31 <Librarian> its more on gettinng the draft done, rest and return to it
00:32 <Librarian> its the simpliest way i know
00:32 <Librarian> music helps
00:32 <nightwind> hi hi
00:33 <somininin> I have the story line mostly full completed. Lots of characters and all their backstories. all the places are described. I just get stuck at overthinking sentences over and over again.
00:33 <somininin> Of course that usually leads to unrealistic "no one talks like that" sentences.
00:33 <Librarian> i dont really
00:34 <somininin> You just let it flow?
00:34 <Librarian> i just write what feels right and tweak it each revision
00:35 <somininin> In theory i know how to write, i just dont follow it :D
00:35 <somininin> What i actually would like to do is publishing an audio book.
00:35 <uni> somininin, what happened to the rest?
00:36 <uni> ooh publishing an audiobook is like twicefold hard
00:36 <uni> you have to write + speak well
00:36 <Librarian> What’s that? Why is that moving?” said Neru, impressed by the weird stalls of the smiling priests “Where did that got a cigar?”.
00:36 <Librarian> “Mind your own business Blondie!” said the thing Neru had been pointing at.
00:36 <Librarian> Neru ducked as a seashell nearly hit her in the face.
00:36 <Librarian> “Amazing” said Neru, smiling in amusement.
00:36 <Librarian> i wrote that rectly
00:36 <Librarian> its silly, not exactly poetry
00:36 <somininin> Out of context it sure is.
00:36 <Librarian> but its a fun image
00:37 <Librarian> in context too
00:37 <somininin> uni itd was an experimental "i dont care about exposing time" roll.
00:38 <somininin> Well sadly i am not native english. I mean my english is good but it simply lags the little extra sense for words needed to write in it.
00:39 <somininin> Or to see greatness in other ppls works.
00:39 <Librarian> im mexican owo
00:39 <Librarian> not native either
00:39 <Librarian> mostly its a matter of routine and stubborness
00:40 <somininin> Huh, maybe i need to reconsider then.
00:40 <somininin> But really my german text are pretty kickass.
00:40 <Librarian> have you ewad books on writing?
00:40 <Librarian> read
00:40 <Librarian> like save the cat and that stuff?
00:41 <somininin> Nah, i dont give a shit about how other ppl work really.
00:41 <Librarian> try anyway
00:41 <Librarian> its usefull
00:41 <somininin> I never follow tips or instructions.
00:41 <Librarian> it will make your life easier
00:42 <Librarian> no need to do it a lot
00:42 <Librarian> i read a bunch until they began repeating
00:42 <Librarian> helped a loooot
00:44 <somininin> If you follow instructions and do stuff like everyone else you are bound to create average results. If you start from scratch hell knows what the result will be.
00:45 <Librarian> not quite
00:45 <Librarian> i heard that explained as learinign the rules, then doing the opposite
00:47 <somininin> Doing the opposite works if you want success i gathered. Its one of the weird mysteries of human society.
00:48 <Librarian> yeah
00:48 <Librarian> i feel thats more on how you approach the history
00:48 <Librarian> market is overcrowded

15:46 * uni flops over Finwe
16:00 <Cepheid> Holy shite I actually defeated Sif on my first try solo.
16:08 <Cepheid> Nito is going to be harder to deal with though.
16:09 <Cepheid> And the Four Kings.
16:12 <Schism> The next step is, of course, to defeat these foes without taking any damage.

16:19 <Schism> And you're not even on e yet...
16:19 * Schism huddles up in multiple blankets with her shork.
16:28 <Cepheid> I think part of it may actually be psychological. I'm trying to finish a game that I've finished three or four times before, having a hard time of it, and don't want to fight these bosses solo.
16:31 <Cepheid> Let's see if I can get some practice in with a summoning sign.
16:39 <Cepheid> Wow, someone actually summoned me.
16:44 <Cepheid> Holy hell.
16:44 <Cepheid> I beat him on my first try.
16:45 * Schism claps. "Maybe you're not terrible at DS games after all!"
16:45 <Cepheid> I overestimated how much damage he could potentially do.
16:46 <Cepheid> The wiki made it sound like he HURTS. But it turns out the one attack that it warned about did minimal damage to me.
16:46 <Cepheid> Instead of taking "loads of damage", I took a sliver of damage instead.
16:48 <Cepheid> Right then. With the gate to the New Londo Ruins opened, I can more readily access the lower areas via the main gate just past a bonfire in the Darkroot Basin.
16:49 <Cepheid> The problem there will be the darkwraiths. They do, in fact, hurt.
16:52 <Cepheid> Let's see, inconsequential amount of souls to worry about, no humanity... I'm game for trying to work through that place.
16:53 <Cepheid> Going through the front gate may be a bad idea. *Sees five drakes*
16:56 <Cepheid> Okay yeah, while I didn't die, the strength of the drakes is a bit much, I'm better off going through the New Londo Ruins.
16:58 <Cepheid> I at least have a cursed weapon, so that's something at least.
16:58 <Cepheid> But it'd be nice to upgrade it.

17:15 <Shadowed> Which game?
17:16 <Ali> Brilliant Diamond
17:17 * Shadowed took a break from Shining Pearl to play Black since I need to beat that one more.
17:18 * Lumindia is on the moon
17:18 * Lumindia is also trapped in Login queue hell
17:18 <Lumindia> https://i.imgur.com/m8A7lzn.png
17:18 <Shadowed> Which is why you should play better MMOs, Lumindia.
17:19 * Shadowed suggests Sea of Thieves.
17:19 <Lumindia> Likew hat
17:19 <Lumindia> *staaaares*
17:19 <Cepheid> And yet, it'd be worse if you didn't have an active paid account.
17:19 * Schism fishes up a Void Mayonnaise.
17:19 * Lumindia yeets Shadowed off to the moon as well
17:19 <Cepheid> Apparently the queue is set up to prioritize paying players.
17:19 <Lumindia> yep
17:19 <Shadowed> I love MMOs that don't have a power curve.
17:19 <Shadowed> Only a learning curve.
17:19 <Lumindia> I mean, it sucks that they have to do that, but I appreciate their transparency about it
17:19 <Lumindia> like, it's nice that they just flat out say 'we'll be prioritizing paid players over trial accounts'
17:20 <Shadowed> I also love MMOs that don't have a chosen one storyline. Just let me be a dude living in this world, I don't need to be more special.
17:21 <Lumindia> I mean, RP!Yuujin is different from WoL!Yuujin
17:21 <Cepheid> Oh my gods are you kidding me now?
17:21 * Schism also waves a Lava Eel in Ali's general direction.
17:21 <Lumindia> RP Yuujin is just a healer for one of the grand companies
17:21 <Cepheid> I was so worried I'd have trouble with the darkwraiths.
17:21 <Cepheid> I can kill them in two hits.
17:22 <Cepheid> Or a single backstab.
17:22 * Ali gwumps as Schism is playing Stardew Valley
17:22 * Schism is not. Is just poking the unicorn.
17:23 <Ali> Then why the void mayonnaise?
17:23 * Ali sits on Schism
17:23 <Schism> Because I didn't know you can fish it up if Krobus is asking for it.
17:23 <Ali> When does he ask for it? I learned that you can fish that stuff up for the goblin problem quest, but never more than that.
17:24 <Schism> Oh right, not Krobus, I thought of him because Void Mayo is one of his Loved gifts.
17:25 * Shadowed is going to boot up Sea of Thieves and be a pirate!
17:25 <Ali> I tried the forest map. It really kills the farmable tiles but the repeating hardwood stumps and hardwood chippers help with the insane wood needs
17:25 <Ali> Not sure if its worth the tradeoff
17:26 <Schism> If you're not sure, that implies that it's balanced.
17:26 <Ali> I get that its balanced
17:26 <Ali> It just feels like there isn't enough tillable tiles
17:26 * Schism nods.
17:26 <Ali> As you have to sacrifice a bit of it to the farm animals
17:27 <Ali> My current farm layout has around 40 sprinklers and that's about all the farmable area as the rest is for grass
17:27 <somininin> I think i should make an harvest moon clone too...
17:27 <Ali> 40 sprinklers on the basic farm is like nothing
17:28 * Ali bleps
17:29 <Cepheid> Four Kings is going to be a problem.
17:29 <Cepheid> I can't kill them fast enough to keep others from spawning.
17:30 <Cepheid> Hilariously(Translation: Annoyingly) there was a player to summon. He forgot his ring and died instantly upon entering the void.
17:32 <Schism> Cepheid: https://twitter.com/bigbootyderek/status/1462568535901802499
17:37 <Cepheid> And Four Kings is No Longer A Problem.
17:38 * Shadowed flops because apparently the wait time to play Sea of Thieves is also atrocious.
17:39 <Cepheid> And with that, I can reach the final boss.
17:42 <Cepheid> Emphasis on the word "can," because that's still a challenge in it's own right.
17:44 * Shadowed blinks at calling Gwyn a challenge.
17:44 * Shadowed swings shield, parries, stabs, repeats.
17:45 <Cepheid> Are you kidding me?
17:45 <Cepheid> I defeated Gwyn on my first try.
17:45 * Cepheid links the fire.
17:45 <Shadowed> How dare you, Cepheid.
17:46 <Shadowed> We don't link the fire. We let that hateful flame go out.
17:46 <Schism> o/` We didn't link the fire, it was always burning since the world's been turning...
17:46 <Cepheid> With that, I'm done Dark Souls again.
17:46 <Cepheid> For the fifth time I think?
17:47 <Cepheid> Also, cute tweet, Schism.
17:47 <Schism> Which one?
17:47 <Cepheid> Five cats.
17:47 <Schism> Ah yes, indeed.
17:48 * Schism randomly boops Cepheid with a spring roll.
17:48 * Cepheid noms.
17:49 <Cepheid> Next on the docket is Dark Souls II. Also, why am I playing through all the games? I plan to play Elden Ring when it comes out, and I'd like to play all the other games first.
17:49 <Schism> You could also play Nioh.
17:50 <Cepheid> There's that, yes.
17:51 <Schism> And, while it is a different sort, there's also Sekiro.
17:51 <Shadowed> The Surge, The Surge 2?
17:51 * Shadowed wants Salt and Sacrifice
17:51 <Schism> Salt & Sanctuary was good.
17:51 * Schism blinks as she's followed by a well-known furry. "Okay."
17:52 <Cepheid> The question I must ask WRT Dark Souls II is which version do I play?
17:52 <Cepheid> Do I play the original, or do I play Scholar of the First Sin, which remixes monster locations?
17:53 <Cepheid> And ultimately makes the game somewhat harder.
17:54 * Shadowed argues for Scholar since I think From Softwares prime team did the monster locations. \
17:55 <Cepheid> Mmm. I initially started it using Scholar, so yeah.
17:55 <Cepheid> I dunno if I want to start over though from scratch, and try a different build, like say mage.
17:58 <Schism> The best home: https://twitter.com/HighnessOphelia/status/1467141244040011779
17:58 <Cepheid> That looks like something out of the Dark Souls series.

18:27 <Shadowed> You got to love a game that offers you a "challenge" for extra in game money, that is only possible to beat without the use of even more in game money. "Beat this map with only this tower." There are enemies completely immune to this tower except for one top tier upgrade that is impossible to save up enough money playing normally to reach by the wave that they would wipe you out in.
18:28 * Shadowed chews on Bloons TD6.
18:37 * Ali chews on Shadowed
18:37 * Schism peers thereat. "Oh, Tower Defense."
18:38 <nightwind> morning
18:40 * Schism waves to nightwind. "Afternoon~"
18:41 <nightwind> hi foxie
18:42 * Schism kisses nightwind's ear.

18:45 <nightwind> *blushes at the ear kiss*
18:54 * Schism also giggles at the newest advert from George at Asda. "Sequins aren't my thing, but that's some very shiny stuff." Said advert is getting pushback from the GC crowd for having a woman wearing a dress.
18:59 <Cepheid> That is a cute kitten.
18:59 <Schism> All of Mary Cagle's cats are adorable. And she has so many of them.
19:37 <Cepheid> Well, that's the Last Giant and The Pursuer down.
19:40 * Shadowed wonders how Cepheid gets through this stuff so fast.
19:40 <Schism> Well, they've played the Dark Souls series like a million times.
19:41 <Cepheid> Working with others, mostly.
19:41 <Cepheid> But also patience and careful fighting.
19:41 <Schism> Ah yes, engaging as well in GLORIOUS COOPERATION
19:41 <Shadowed> \[T]/
19:43 * Schism shakes her head at the Game Awards. "Yeah, congratulations, don't care about them anymore, well done."
19:44 <Cepheid> Yeah, they're taking a controversial stance towards Activision/Blizzard, among other things.
19:45 <Schism> Ironically, they're doing so by trying to avoid taking a controversial stance.
19:45 <Schism> As one person put it, "You know, in a video game, if you take too long to make a moral decision, the game typically times out and picks one for you."
19:46 <Cepheid> Heh.
19:46 <Schism> Note that the head of the advisory board for those awards is an ActiBlizz exec.
19:46 <Schism> Can you say 'conflict of interest'? I knew you could!

21:13 <Finwe> Good evening.
21:15 * Schism tailwaves.
21:15 * Schism is indeed possessed of multiple tails, and therefore finds tailwaving a simple affair.
21:16 * Finwe noms on Schism's tail.
21:17 * Schism waggles the other three.
21:23 * Schism headtilts at a brief notification, considers letting Ali know, then remembers that she doesn't do F1.
21:23 <Ali> I don't follow F1
21:23 <Ali> Its just that Motorsport Manager is all about F1

21:33 * Ali has always been left of center
21:34 <Schism> Perhaps be a bit more liberal in your configurations.
21:34 * Schism flees.
21:35 <Schism> But in all truth, I _should_ be playing more Forza Horizon 5, it's just that ... the bugs got to me.
21:39 * Finwe brushes swarms of insects off Schism.

21:43 * Finwe doffs his hat.
21:43 <Nightwindphone> Hi finwe
21:46 <Finwe> I should probably go to bed soon, we're publishing a book tomorrow in the editorial staff of which I was, so I will probably be expected to look festive and upright.
21:47 * Finwe fluffs up Ali a bit, curls up on her and snoozes.
21:57 <Schism> If I've accidentally sparked a conspiracy theory claiming that HFCS is all a part of the transing of children, I deeply apologize.
22:33 <Schism> Welp, more riots in London this afternoon. Bar your doors.
22:33 <Schism> I say because it's West Ham v. Chelsea again.
22:34 <Nightwindphone> Lol
22:35 <Schism> I'm going to yeet my brother out the window.
22:35 <Nightwindphone> Why
22:35 <Schism> This is the third time in a row he's decided that he should keep all the dishes and glasses in his room and only bring them out when I'm hungry and he's heading to work.
22:35 <Finwe> Defenestration is fashionable again.
22:36 <Nightwindphone> Lol yep yeet him down the stairs
22:36 *** Joins: uni (uni@Pony-0ih94j.ucl.ac.uk)
22:36 <Finwe> Mr uni.
22:36 * Finwe doffs his hat.
22:38 <Schism> George at Asda is the subject of a targeted hate campaign now, and we're rather enjoying the fact that they are laughing their balls off at it.
22:39 <Finwe> Schism: He unselfishly abstains from the joy of doing the dishes and leaves it to you.
22:40 <Schism> That's not the Small Gods quote he'd want to use.
22:41 <Schism> Hum. The phrase 'fuschia taffeta minidress' is enough to make me want to jump through the nearest window, but some women can pull that off.
22:42 <Nightwindphone> What are you talking about schism
22:43 <Finwe> “The Monks of Cool, whose tiny and exclusive monastery is hidden in a really cool and laid-back valley in the lower Ramtops, have a passing-out test for a novice. He is taken into a room full of all types of clothing and asked: Yo,**my son, which of these is the most stylish thing to wear? And the correct answer is: Hey, whatever I select.”
22:43 <Schism> A recent advertisement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogdXHxo_h1A
22:43 <Schism> And the woman in the ad is fantastic.
22:44 <Finwe> The footnote on "yo" states:
22:44 <Finwe> “Cool, but not necessarily up to date.”
22:57 <Schism> So, now have a DJUNGELSKOG enroute.
22:58 <Schism> If I'm calling myself Kayla, I need a plush tiger.
23:05 * uni pokes Finwe with milk
23:05 <uni> Whole milk.
23:12 <Finwe> Schism: A jungle forest?
23:13 <Finwe> Is that what the Ikea tiger plushie is called?
23:15 <Schism> Yup.
23:15 <Finwe> o3o
23:15 <Schism> Well, one of them. Another, with the same name, is a brown bear.
23:16 <Schism> https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/djungelskog-soft-toy-brown-bear-00402813/ -- but TBH I prefer the tiger.
23:17 <Schism> But really, tiger and shark. https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/djungelskog-soft-toy-tiger-30408583/
23:18 <Schism> Tiger, bear and shark.
23:19 <Finwe> The panda is called Snuggly. o3o
23:19 <Finwe> Or Kramig in Swedish.

23:20 <Finwe> The small panda, that is. The larger one is also Djungelskog.
23:20 <Finwe> I almost called this a monkey: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/djungelskog-soft-toy-orangutan-00402808/

She
23:24 <Finwe> does not Knoe her own Mind. You aere Kinge and you can doe what you like. You muste present her with a Fate Accompli. PS. I hear there is talk aboute making witches pay tax, no kinges of Lancre has tried this for many a Year, you could profit from their example. Yrs. in good health, at the moment. A FRIEND (MSS).”
23:25 <Schism> Nightwindphone, you stop that right this instant, I am not intrinsically cuter just because I'm snuggling a tiger plush.
23:26 <Finwe> Of course not, I'd rather say that the tiger confers cuteness.
23:26 <Finwe> Much in the same way as Ali embodies cuteness. o3o
23:29 * Schism meanwhile considers what of her leftover food to eat.
23:29 <Schism> Lots of shrimp. o3o
23:36 <Finwe> Prawn Goebbels?
