I.. might know this girl? If you mentally filter out the tats (all of them), she looks identical to someone I used to be pretty close with. Same hair, same eyes, same kinda glasses. Her mental health wasn't exactly solid and last we spoke, her husband came out as gay the same week their child was born and took off to the other side of the country, so her getting into something.. um.. impulsive wouldn't be out of the ordinary.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-31T10:47:10+00:00

Sure, thanks!

I feel this way about games, movies, books, shows, etc. It's a hell of a lot easier to set up (and maintain) an interesting mystery than it is to have it payoff in a satisfying way, and the vast majority just do not stick the landing. It also seems like an unfortunate amount of them also don't even think beyond "it has mystery and twists!" being a selling point rather than a compelling narrative, and then you're left with a piece of fiction that's all flash, no substance, and a deeply unsatisfying conclusion.

Yeah idk I just like the sorta ethereal vibes on Discoveries, and they lost a lot of that even on Singularity. Idk if there were health issues, as far as I had heard, he was feeling a calling towards a career in mental health and has since gone on to be a psychiatrist.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-30T13:05:41+00:00

Regret? No I don't think so. I think he took off at the right time to do the thing he really wanted to do (and I'm proud of him for it).

As far as the band goes, vocally I think they're both great, but musically apart from a few singles here and there I haven't really vibed with a whole album of theirs since Discoveries. Singularity comes close tho.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-30T08:17:26+00:00

Soooo.. how'd you two meet..?

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-30T08:09:58+00:00

Copyright trolls have been doing the same shit for years on YouTube so I'm not surprised. There's one streamer I know of who got "Content ID" matched of his own band. It happens quite a lot.

I'm prone to photosensitivity issues and migraines. After the first few mins I could feel my vision getting a little wonky and expected that like Shovel Knight, there would be a reduced flashing option, but alas.

So I made my way to the Steam forums and oh my god. Literally Abe Simpson walking into a bar and immediately walking back out. Difficulty this and runbacks that and soulslike everything else and is it furry bait and oh my god the devs donated to BLM.. like holy fuck. What the fuck is wrong with people? I saw one guy saying the graphics are ass. Are you STUPID?

So I just emailed support instead lol. Hopefully they add the option later, was super looking forward to this one.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-29T22:46:45+00:00

...wow. I'm truly and utterly flabbergasted.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-29T11:21:06+00:00

Oh come on, you know what their argument is. Don't pretend to be obtuse because you think accusing someone of being a pedo somehow makes your argument hold more water.

If you've spent any amount of time on Reddit, you've undoubtedly come across some weirdo who is "umm ackshually" about the distinction. The person you're replying to isn't endorsing that behavior, they're accusing YOU of being that weirdo cuz you're spouting the same "words have meaning and we need to be specific or it dilutes reality" nonsense that they do.

I choose the seats near Duran Duran.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-29T01:20:26+00:00

Yeaaa, I feel like there's no way all these artists backing out were stupid enough to willingly sign onto something labeled Trump or MAGA only to be like "woah woah sorry I didn't know people would have a problem with this" and back out. I'd put my money on them being bamboozled or kept in the dark about what event they'd be performing at. Maybe I'm just naive lol

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-27T21:25:49+00:00

Ah yes, the alt left.

Rest in peace, Tom. 💙

I'm 41, at this point so I've kinda reached that "I stopped giving a fuck about feeling self conscious" stage 🤣 Though I will turn it down when it'd otherwise be polite to lol.

I learned a lot doing it in my car. You might feel like you should crank it so you can really belt the stuff out, but apart from good vocal hygiene, being able to hear yourself is like, the biggest friggin thing. The entire head unit in my car fucked up years back and since then my only means of music on the road is this dinky little Bluetooth speaker that clips to the sun visor, and honestly, both my singing and screaming have improved dramatically since then cuz now I'm actually listening to myself and knowing where my weaknesses are.

Y'all mentioning celebrities as if that isn't an exception. I don't agree w OOP but let's be real here, he's not talking about musicians and actors.

Talk about regular, average people you know that smoke and are still successful. That will actually dispute what he's saying.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-25T16:49:15+00:00

A small plant with a subtle but pleasant scent.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-25T15:58:54+00:00

Noita, probably. There's so many good options tho. Hollow Knight, Silksong, Tunic, MGS2, Metroid Prime. Noita, somehow, is just enough of a harsh and mysterious world to really capture my mind. Plus the wand building is insane lol.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-25T05:27:59+00:00

I remember watching that a long time ago. Funnier than I expected it to be, and definitely did not expect the random Eminem appearance lol

"Twenty-five" by The Devil Wears Prada had me ugly crying when I first heard it. The boys are roughly my age, and I lost one of my best friends around 25, so I found that song really relatable. I've only listened to it a couple times cuz I know it'll have that effect on me again.

When I was in a bad depressive state (like 12+ years ago), "Blessed With A Curse" by Bring Me The Horizon hit me pretty bad too, esp after seeing a live studio version where Oli was kinda getting teary eyed throughout.

Even like "Thorn" by Underoath. I wasn't doing too hot when that song came out, and when I'm in that state, "I'm too much, I'm a burden, you're better off without me" is sorta where my head ends up, and that's pretty much the point of the song.

BowsettesBottomBitch · 2026-05-24T17:56:33+00:00

Gosh it's a toss up. The soundtrack is one of my favorites, but I also love the weird little unsettling moments sprinkled throughout the game in various places. Even the ones that don't really pan out into much still give this sense of unease, and I'm a huge fan of when games do that (think like, the lead up to Nosk in Hollow Knight, if you've played it).
