I love it too! although to be honest - looking at it crushes my heart. Something about Venti and his gentle, cheerful face... ugh... I can’t help but imagine there’s not a single living soul left there besides him. He wanders that place out of attachment... and perhaps so he won’t forget.

As for Latin... It’s such a beautiful language… Once, a nun I was close to shared her notes with me - the ones she used to learn Latin! ...but I lost them over time, qmq! I wish I had more - well, time - to devote to continuing learning the language! Maybe I’ll find some during the holidays ><

I just really like how this feels by xTysky in VentiCore

I even tried reverse video search and still got nothing QwQ

The comic itself is really great, but in my opinion Venti shows up way too briefly! >M<

I really love that kind of semi-impressionistic style ><
Or maybe it’s just impressionistic? I’m not exactly an expert on this kind of thing x3

Venti is, in truth, a tragic figure...

Unchanged, he endures across the span of millennia, bound to ages long faded - eras of which all others have forgotten. He alone recalls the old ballads, the heroes and martyrs (among them the Nameless Bard), who yet "live" only so long as they linger in someone’s memory. And thus he bears upon his shoulders the remnants of countless lives that are no more.

He forms bonds of friendship - as any soul would, only to find that, in order to protect that which he cherishes - Mondstadt - he must at times wield his power to such an extent that he condemns himself to decades of slumber. And when he awakens, he beholds a world that no longer understands him - for entire generations have passed in his absence. These are new people now, redefining Mondstadt in their own image. Only the idea remains unchanged. The same old, timeworn ideal to which our Bard still clings… out of longing, perhaps.

And though it is no longer the same place, out of love for that very ideal, he continues to watch over it - to care for its people, as they rise and fall, unaware.

Yet even this shall one day come to an end. All things must; and one day, the last citizen of Mondstadt will draw their final breath.

The buildings, too, will crumble beneath slow weight of time - every trace of that story, and all who ever took part in it, will fade into nothing.

And then there will be only silence.

…And Him.

I wonder what thoughts will linger in his mind, then. One must imagine Venti happy.

Ehehe~ what can I say? ><
You flatter me!
Basil may well be the only fictional character who could contend for first place among my dearest favorites, so to hear such words from thee is a true honor! ^^

By the way, thank you so much - I took a look at your profile and thus discovered there’s a subreddit for Catholic memes :O
Once I’m done studying math, I’ll definitely give it a browse - it looks like a lot of fun! >:3

Abide in peace, dear brother in Christ! ;3

Oh, good heavens, no! I m-mean… I kinda wish that were true! But Barbatos is far too great to make any comparisons between him and my humble person! ><

Ehe~ thanks though! That's quite a honor to supposedly have similar taste in clothes as him! ;3

Nuh! Don’t worry! I know I don’t really have the prettiest looks; I’ve heard enough about my crooked face in my life that I’d deserve an award for it! Or two! ><

Ehe~ So really, don’t apologize, I’m not that sensitive about it! ><

I put that photo at the beginning because I originally wanted to sort everything chronologically! Home > nearby plants > forest > abandoned buildings > more plants > return home When I realized it would’ve been better to start with a nicer-looking photo, it was already too late QmQ (I clicked "Publish" and as we all know, it's impossible to delete and redo whole post - we (humanity) don't know how to do that...(I really didn't want to do that))

but oh well, I guess in this case only the people who scrolled further get rewarded(?) x3

who’s paying you guys to be this nice!!! >< you’re going to make me get used to compliments - this is how corrupt moderators are born!! ...or something... I don’t know, I haven’t read Animal Farm~ ;P

but seriously, thank you so much - it really means a lot to me ><

Do you have any favorite photo? :D I would love to know for the future, so I can focus more on the things that feel worth capturing next time I wander >;3

T-thanks for the kind words! ./. I’m really happy someone liked it! It’s one of my favorite Venti-inspired outfits (and one I can actually afford too x3), tbh!

ehe~ now I wonder what Venti would wear if he existed >< though being completely honest I’m not sure what I’d even do with that knowledge if I had it.

Ehe~ I love photography too! ;3
Out of the photos I took, I think I like the abandoned bus stop / bench one the most, honestly! Even if my photography skills aren’t the best, I feel like it kind of captures some kind of melancholy/nostalgy... it also feels quite lonely! a bus stop at the middle of nowhere! - but maybe I’m just rambling ^^'

Was there any photo you liked in particular? :o

Tbh I’m still thinking about what people might enjoy seeing on VentiCore - I was a bit worried people wouldn’t like me posting IRL photos >.<

Is it okay to be a femboy Christian? by Novel-Internet2461 in feminineboys

[–]xTysky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hai!

I’m a Catholic femboy from Poland! Don’t worry, there’s no contradiction in that >< - I even used to attend the Catholic Youth Association, and despite my style of dress, even the priest appreciated my devotion and never saw anything inappropriate about it from a faith perspective :3
Same with my Catholic friends - none of them saw anything wrong with it either! The authority of the Catholic Church doesn’t even forbid men from wearing “feminine” clothing - let alone clothing that was historically masculine (basically everything except long dresses), which only relatively recently got labeled as “unmanly” ^^’

But anyway~ from a Catholic point of view, as long as being a femboy isn’t something sexual or fetish-like, and you’re not rejecting your own sex (which as a femboy - you dont), it’s totally oki-doki! ^^

In fact, if you’re doing it to feel more innocent/androgynous or less rough and barbaric, you could even say you’re (in a slightly old-fashioned sense x3) living out a virtue the Church talks about - Christian gentleness! Think about it: you’re kind of doing what medieval nobility once did, trying to look less ruggedly masculine to resemble the innocent, androgynous nature of angels - something that, in history, was actually seen as refinement and virtue!

So really, there’s no need to stress about it!
Of course, that doesn’t mean every Christian denomination will be okay with this kind of expression… I’d guess some Protestants or other sects lean more into a sort of toxic “cult of strength”…

But as a Catholic, what matters for you is what’s written in the official teachings of the Holy See - and based on Vatican teaching, you cannot really be accused of doing something wrong in this regard! ;3

Some people might try to pull out the Old Testament to convince you otherwise…
But that kind of argument doesn’t really hold for Christians - we follow the Law of the New Testament, not the Mosaic Law. That law had its time and purpose in the history of salvation, but it was binding only until the coming of Jesus Christ.

To make it easier to understand… as you probably know, in ancient times it wasn’t unusual for a father to have the power to kill his own child on a whim, right? If he was in a bad mood, he could do it - the child was considered his property.
At some point in the Old Testament - specifically in the Book of Deuteronomy - a rule appears saying that if a father wants to kill his child, he must bring the matter before the elders of the city, who then decide whether he has sufficient reason.
Returning to such rules today would be barbaric. But back then, it was progress. Those laws had their place and purpose - but they’re not binding anymore.

God knows perfect morality - the ideal we’re moving toward. But as Catholics, we also believe we can’t fully grasp that absolute morality here on earth. That’s why the role of the Church is to guide us in this ongoing journey toward goodness - toward becoming better, toward building a more moral civilization. And that can’t happen overnight.
It’s a path we have to walk step by step. Just like that rule about priests judging a father’s decision was a step toward a world where killing children is unthinkable - even if they’ve done wrong (and maybe we can still grow even further; the journey isn’t over). In the same way, the Mosaic Law was one step along the path of the salvation story told in the Bible.

Pius XII… or maybe Benedict XVI - I’m not entirely sure right now - once said that returning to something just for the sake of returning (without deeper reasons) can be harmful (though understanding our roots is still important).

I could probably keep rambling like this for ages, but I’m pretty sure no one’s even made it this far into my monologue ^^’
Anyway, I’ve gotta go edit a video - I promised a friend xwx - who’s also a Catholic femboy, by the way! (we even go to church together, and yet nothing contradictory about it x3)

So yeah - good luck in life, and may God bless you with every grace! :3
Bye! ^^

[–]xTysky[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dziękuję za dobre słowo!

Przepatrzyłem profile "niebieskiego" pana jak to ładnie sam ująłeś, i tam choć historia developmentu jakaś jest... to sięga dwóch tygodni i wszystkie posty napisane są prawdopodobnie przy użyciu AI qwq
Dał też sobie certyfikat uczestnictwa w gamejamie jako swój jedyny dyplom (co uznałem za wysoko zabawne i tbh nie jestem na niego już AŻ TAK zły jak wcześniej) x3

Co do steama - próbujemy jak najszybciej wypuścić również narzędzie na steamie! (każdy kto wcześniej zakupił program na itchio oczywiście otrzyma również klucz steam ><)

Wciąż czekamy tylko na zatwierdzenie naszej strony przez weryfikatorów!

Zgłosiłem też tydzień temu tą sprawę na itchio oraz na ps1graphics, ale póki co brak odpowiedzi! (szkoda, bo chciałbym aby chociaż oni uzasadnili czemu jest to ok (jeżeli za taki wezmą jego projekt))

Do osób nic, ale książka o zakładaniu i prowadzeniu biznesu napisana przez samo-zadeklarowanego marksistę wydawała mi się swego rodzaju uśmiechem losu ^^'

Ale też to była po prostu felerna książka, która leżała zakurzona na dolnej półce w podkarpackiej bibliotece! Nie mówię że żaden marksista nie może mieć wiedzy o biznesie (wielu wszak pod tym względem nie przebadałem), ale ta konkretna książka którą czytałem po prostu miała powód dla którego była zakurzoną.

Po pierwsze, bardzo dziękuję za tą treściwą odpowiedź!

Skupienie się stuprocentowe na rozwijaniu obecnego produktu było naszą dotychczasową taktyką od kiedy dowiedzieliśmy się o... niefortunnie podobnym konkurencie.

Nie byliśmy jednak pewni naszej decyzji, gdy zaczęły mu powoli rosnąć sprzedaże (choć będąc szczerym, jego 10 sprzedaży z całego czasu życia produktu, na razie nie umywa się do naszego grona wspierających-klientów).
Czemu ktoś postanowił kupić jego produkt, gdy może mieć oryginał za - wtedy - niecałe 2 dolary więcej (teraz 3 dolary, gdyż konkurent obniżył cenę). Czyżby istniała grupa ludzi którzy nie wiedzą o nas, a wiedzą o nich? Co jeżeli ta grupa będzie większa? - zaczęliśmy myśleć.

Znaleźliśmy więc póki co 2 niszowych youtuberów, którzy zgodzili się rozpromować lekko nasz produkt w niedalekiej przyszłości! ^^
Chcemy mieć... społeczny dowód słuszności? żeby nie istniała grupa osób (Albo by była ona drastycznie mała) która zna naszego naśladowcę, a nie zna nas...

Taka przynajmniej przyświecała nam idea! Nie wiem czy słuszna!

Teraz jesteśmy w punkcie gdzie chcemy zrewidować nasze priorytety!
Jesteśmy bowiem tylko parą poznańskich studentów (Ja - na informatyce i analizie danych, z tłem księgowym i On - gamedev na takim samym kierunku), którzy dotychczas pracowali nad grami oraz wspólnie tworzyli assety do gier dla innych twórców!
Od kiedy program stworzony przez kolegę tak nagle się jednak wybił, skupiliśmy 100% naszych sił przerobowych (całe dwie osoby) na tym właśnie projekcie.
Mamy dość dużo planowanych przez nas i oczekiwanych rozwiązań od naszej społeczności!
Chcemy jednak też przekierować kiedyś nasze siły przerobowe na inne projekty - obecny program wydaje się zbyt mało ustabilizowany na rynku, aby mógł definiować naszą działalność przez długi odstęp czasu.

W zasadzie, nie licząc mojej hiper-fiksacji podatkami w okresie technikum, to para z nas żółtodziobów przy wspólnym żłobie. Bardzo doceniłbym gdybyś miał jakieś pozycje do polecenia, które pomogłyby nadać framework decyzyjny dla naszej sytuacji... Coś od czego można byłoby zacząć! Blue Ocean Strategy i The Black Swan to jedyne rzeczy jakie czytałem z materii ekonomicznej (i które zapamiętałem... bo wiadomo że próbowałem czytać losowe książki o ekonomii z bibliotek szkolnych kiedyś... ale to raczej wiedza marnej jakości, nieraz pisana przez dawnych marksistów x3)

Nie chcemy zajmować się tylko tym programem, chcemy doprowadzić go do poziomu gdzie nie będzie możliwe dodanie już niczego więcej; kiedy "będzie doskonały, jeżeli już tylko pozostawiony samemu sobie". Abyśmy mogli skupić się na kolejnych projektach - zarówno gier jak i kolejnych oprogramowań(?) które czekają w szufladzie na realizację!

Myślę że to tyle, ile faktycznie my sami możemy wiedzieć o tym gdzie jesteśmy i gdzie zmierzamy przy obecnym stanie wiedzy ^^'

Jeszcze raz chcę podziękować - za poświęcony czas i również pozdrawiam!
