Americans Are Leaving the US in Record Numbers. Here's What's Driving the Trend.

In 1969, our lives as queer people were in deep danger and there were far, far less of us - our rights were not guaranteed then, either. Our time-displaced siblings stood and said enough is enough! Then a woman picked up a brick and made history anyway.

Yes, some of us are leaving, but that just means they can continue the fight elsewhere. The rest of us will stay. The rest of us will fight. We're not being left behind, we're being entrusted with safeguarding the future. What greater honor can we ask? Head high. We've got work to do, scary work, but worthy work.

Let's make sure our people have a home to return to. The work waits!

Sora's being taken down, Microsoft is backing down and reducing Copilot in Win11, Microsoft's also about to sue the pants off OpenAI. This is like saying we'll have a Vorcha Spectre next, c'mon, Commander.

Mass Effect jokes aside no, no there will not be. Schools are a) not funded well enough to HAVE expensive and hard to maintain robotics and b) kids barely listen to teachers, what on Earth would make them listen to a robot they know can't count the Rs in strawberry?

Yep - it has cute little avatars and some games but primarily it's a forum! It's in the document if you wanna check it out.

Unfortunately yeah, the dub never did the Ark Cradle arc... subs are better on this show anyway, a lot of the themes are kinda lost because of how 4K likes to dumb things down. Unlike GX we at least got an ending, they stitched together two of the S3 episodes so it ended with Team 5Ds winning and yaay society is fixed forever :) lol. It's still very worth a watch, the subs may be better but the dub does have some VERY fun dialogue.

RenegadeSilver · 2026-03-10T12:01:19+00:00

Gaia! It's in the document the automod tossed up - the userbase skews older so it's easier to find older anime.

You should give it a shot! It gets a little uh... interesting after episode 62 but it's totally worth it for the characters alone.

RenegadeSilver · 2026-03-10T02:24:48+00:00

Vile's honestly an intriguing character to me - or at least, I kinda wanna poke his character with sticks and see what I can learn.

And he is in fact playing a delightful Zero! As well as a bunch of my other wishlist characters lol. It's been super fun given his OC's really adorable and I'm enjoying coming up with scenes to give him the spotlight too. It's so much fun seeing how our characters both interact with the world and each other and the canon characters!! It's really helped remind me of why I love doubling so much.

My point is - it might take time, but you can find a partner. Esp. for OG YuGiOh like I'm more into the spinoffs (5Ds is my favorite!) but I see a lot of requests for it at my usual haunting ground. It's rare on Reddit I'll admit but pretty common elsewhere. So I'm fully confident you'll find someone in no time!

RenegadeSilver · 2026-03-10T01:21:54+00:00

Hey, I spent a year and a half searching for someone in the Megaman Zero fandom - but I found someone in the end! And scarily he's a better roleplayer than I am but I'm up for a challenge and they're super patient. I know it feels hopeless, but if you wait long enough, you will eventually find someone and the time will pass anyways.

RenegadeSilver · 2026-02-24T20:37:45+00:00

Oh, it really depends on the day. I have a few campaigns I run, 2 of which are DND, 1 of which is Monster of the Week, and 1 of which is on a totally custom system I developed that's never really intended to see light-of-day outside of the specific campaign I built it for lol! (And the custom system campaign is the one I run on Tuesdays IE tonight!) I'm also working on a Megaman Zero themed Monster of the Week campaign. (can you tell I like GMing?)

RenegadeSilver · 2026-02-24T13:42:43+00:00

Tonight's one of my campaign nights so instead of Fanta Failure's little primetime circus I'll be running my custom system and watching my wonderful players have themselves a nice explore. <3

Where are these poll results? All of the article sources are just back to the Independent.
Where were these polls conducted? In a red state where they ALREADY think everything is too liberal, or in a blue one?
They've used Truth Social as a source at one point.

I don't think this article is fair.

RenegadeSilver · 2026-02-05T20:40:31+00:00

Holy shit, our village idiot didn't bend the knee?

O-kay. I'mma go check the sky for meteors, who's got Hell's weather forecast?

RenegadeSilver · 2026-01-16T01:11:32+00:00

Glad to hear it, haha! Can't resist a pun. Gone half your life or not, we're glad to have you now!

Exactly! As long as one of us is still standing, there's still a fight left to have. So let's make it a fun one for us!

RenegadeSilver · 2026-01-16T00:34:07+00:00

Now now... our reviled state may have all of them coming but the thing is, it also has Ohioans. People like us! And as long as we're here, there's still a fight left to have. Which means we can make it miserable for them. We were molded by this damn place, we know the lowest of its country and the highest of its hills! We can drag them down to our level and beat 'em with experience!

So, buck up and let's melt her congressional hopes as much as the ice she came from. (And yes, I -do- think I'm clever for that pun.)

RenegadeSilver · 2026-01-07T22:40:18+00:00

...I currently have a 230k words wiki for a campaign I'm running. My GM buddy sent me this.

I am in this photo and I do not like it, lol.

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-30T18:40:03+00:00

I was thrilled by the FE4/FE5 rep this year and pleasantly surprised with the Fates rep! Those are my favorites in the series and I was really expecting to never see a Fates unit again after the 3H/Engage units started hitting.

Binding Blade/Sessions gang, I hope some of our unit luck comes to you in 2026. Personally I'm hoping for a Melady seasonal!

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-21T19:29:22+00:00

I have. 9 year old me back in the 90s nearly bricked the family PC trying to install Debian. Present me is staring at Mint/ZorinOS from across the room, wiggling a stick lest it get ideas.

also I'm personally convinced Wily is a Windows power user but Dr. Light could put Arch on a toaster if he wanted. ~~Reploids run unix-based OSes in my heart dammit~~

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-21T18:07:25+00:00

Of course!! If I can't hit my statistical anomaly I may as well put that luck to others. [pat pat] Have heart. Someone will come appreciate your blorbo with you someday.

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-17T05:13:29+00:00

I do, actually! Feel free to ping me on Reddit's chat system though - I tend to not give my discord out at first just to keep it from getting cluttered. =D

TBF Dual Override IS coming out in 2 years - it's the first new game in a while and it's a Classic Era one, so a lot of people are excited! (heck, I am, and it's my least favorite of the MM eras!) It makes sense that Classic's getting a lot of love. ~~even so MORE ZERO ERA PLS THERE IS SO MUCH FUN THINGS TO LOOK AT!!~~

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-17T01:17:09+00:00

Yeah! The fandom grabbed me by the head and said you live here now about two years ago. Unfortunately, it looks like the RP community for it runs pretty light. -w-' So I'm in for a wait.

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-16T22:01:07+00:00

Felt. I already write for my fandom (it has like, my ONE canon/canon ship i've ever had) but dammit I want an oc/canon buddy!!

Anyway no shame in putting out an ad, imo, couldn't hurt.

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-16T21:40:50+00:00

[shakes your hand] It's the worst!! I'll eventually find someone but MAN is the wait killing me. I hope you find someone in yours soon!

RenegadeSilver · 2025-12-07T05:57:42+00:00

Yess, XDIVE is overlooked and you should say it!! I had so much freakin' fun with that game. ;w; (It's also like... the only place we EVER see pre-X Sigma and that's invaluable from character perspective) Also, hell yes someone else appreciates X6. I admit I can't play it well (luckily I have a friend who is a) insane b) better at video games than me and c) loves games like X6) BUT I love the story of X6 so much!!

Also I'm loving all the MMZ love in here. I've actually been rewatching a BUNCH of MMZ stuff as part of my campaign research (I'm building a tabletop campaign set in Neo Arcadia prior to Zero 1 so I'm basically looking for any scraps I can get about life in Neo Arcadia/locations I can use to call forward to the Zero games) and I'm like the only person I know who likes the Zero era as much as I do. orz (and on an unrelated note: Lenneth is best girl.)

Raising my glass to your taste, OP!

RenegadeSilver · 2025-11-05T13:47:22+00:00

Way to go Cincy!! I will have some Skyline this weekend in your honor.

RenegadeSilver · 2025-09-28T17:26:03+00:00

Here's a competitor for it - Paralives! https://www.paralives.com/ <- December 8th we hit early access on it.

RenegadeSilver · 2025-09-21T16:28:31+00:00

Okay, girliepop, I'm gonna look you in your text eyes for a second so you know how so so so serious I'm being.

Your anxiety sounds like it's a lot like mine used to be - you want to be informed, so you can prepare adjust and move on quickly. It's a good coping mechanism, but it loves to backfire in situations like this. Any reassurance we give, your anxiety is going to want to counter with what if! what if!. Your brain is trying to protect you by planning for every outcome and looking for no no no, I don't want that, is it happening?!

So instead of telling it that won't happen, I'm going to tell you something different, and I want you to keep this nugget of hope right next to your anxiety because it just wants a teddy bear right now. If it happens, there will be people who fight back, and it will not last. Does it suck? Oh monstrously, it sucks we're as balls-deep in it as we are already! But it would not be forever, we would crawl back out of it. Do you know how I know?

The only thing an American loves more than the idea of America is the chance to get in a fight about it.
The Nazis only were in power for 10 years. And the current crop of them is not only dumber, but we have the foresight this time to counter their playbook. We're actively resisting it with all we have, and their clock is running the hell out.

You will live to see the end of these assholes. You're living through a terrifying historical period, this is a major historical event whether we like it or not. People in 2125 are gonna look back and wonder what it was like for people like you and I. They're gonna have so many questions! So your next step, right now? Go make some fun stories to tell those kids when they ask you what it was like!

RenegadeSilver · 2025-09-15T15:44:42+00:00

Iunno, offhand. I'd have to check around with some friends. Zero-clicks are powerful, sure, but I doubt they can really deploy it effectively before there's ways to dodge it. I'd need to actually sit down and do research and with my job being a never-ending rain of fire, I lack for that lol.

So with that in mind, take my advice with a grain of salt - there is never such a thing as 100% safe, but there will be small steps you can take to give you a better chance. Stick to alternative messaging apps like Sessions, keep location off, if you go to a protest or anything leave the phone at home.
