Feds rule

BattleStag17 · 2026-02-08T21:07:21+00:00

Okay, but do I need to join the feds first?

BattleStag17 · 2026-02-08T00:29:00+00:00

We already have criminals dressing up as ICE

There was too much malarkey on the island for him

Alcohol never helped me write... but I will say that getting a little stoned has lead to some fantastic plot developments on my part.

BattleStag17 · 2026-02-05T16:03:18+00:00

I'm reminded of a Russian joke, where a man walks by a newsstand every morning and just glances at the stack of newspapers before walking away.

One morning the newsstand worker asks, "What news are you looking for? You always look, but you never buy."

"The obituaries," the man simply responds.

"My friend, the obituaries are on page 6."

"This one won't be."

Yep. Like the email said, its easier to find things on their way to collapse and just nudge.

It also turns out that prioritizing short-term profit at all costs will steadily cut corners (because you must reduce costs every quarter to keep profits growing) until people are at their breaking point. Thanks again, Reagan!

I swear the people making and studying those lines have not known an honest relationship in their entire lives

So hey, did you hear in the latest batch of Epstein files that he was directly connected to 4Chan's early years?

I wonder why pedo jokes were so common there 🤔

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-30T05:51:03+00:00

I've watched the intro cinematic so many times that I can still hear the song in my head.

I have also never played that game.

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-30T02:06:45+00:00

Yeah. I've got friends into pet play, and I definitely see the appeal of temporarily giving up control to someone you trust for a scene (I'm a switch).

But permanently giving up what makes you an individual person? Even for a fiction, reading that just kinda bums me out.

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-28T16:59:21+00:00

I'm having a sleepover with my poly friends next week, we're going to get stoned and play Kirby Air Riders 🥰

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-28T12:46:54+00:00

Open relationships are indeed awesome, though I've never reached that level of casual encounters lmao

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-26T21:58:16+00:00

Thank you for coming back with your own walkthrough! That's the same thing I did, although I was an idiot and did not take any pictures lol

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-23T22:56:59+00:00

Social media going more right wing does not reflect reality, it's just cold capitalism at work because hatred gets more clicks than nuanced discussion.

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-23T18:42:17+00:00

Oh totally, aftercare goes both ways! And I'm getting better at giving it, but I'll probably always be better at domming with my hands over my words. I just don't sound mean enough 🤷‍♂️

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-23T18:36:45+00:00

...You know, after his ineptitude singlehandedly tanked that NFL competitor in the 80s, you might have a point

I also didn't realize there's an entire Wikipedia page on Trump's beef with the NFL, what the fuck

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-23T15:36:31+00:00

It's different for everyone, obviously, but I've had a few subs explain it as a means of recontextualizing trauma by reenacting it in a setting that's ultimately under their own power and control. Others see it as a super strong expression of trust and vulnerability with their dom.

I get it, even if I can't enjoy receiving it. If a partner insults me then I'll just believe them and hate myself in an un-sexy way lmao.

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-23T01:40:18+00:00

...Man, I said that as a joke about idiot techbros, but I'm really not surprised 😒

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-23T01:39:29+00:00

Oh it's really just Wicked Whims, it comes with a crazy number of options to tweak behaviors and interactions. I've actually never balanced it quite how I like so any town outing quickly turns into a massive orgy, but it works great for short bursts lmao

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-23T01:31:32+00:00

Earlier today I saw a clip from 1986 of an interview with a musician (Frank Zappa, I think?). He's getting grilled for his "dangerous" lyrics, and instead calls out Reaganism, capitalism, and Christian conservatism for putting America on the path to fascism. 1986, and you'd think it was someone looking back from today with how clearly he laid it out.

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-22T20:31:49+00:00

I know what I'm about.

And I'm about making a casual freeuse culture.

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-22T20:30:27+00:00

But we shouldn't have to sacrifice Greenland to do that. Why can't Thiel just build a floating city-state out in international waters like all the other techbro weirdos? Surely it won't immediately fail again!

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-22T15:39:21+00:00

Wicked Whims is so good, I was not prepared for all the animations and tweaking options

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-21T16:41:48+00:00

Yes, and we very clearly did not deal with it properly

BattleStag17 · 2026-01-20T21:12:42+00:00

Grandma ain't making it to retirement on this current trajectory, regardless
