What sort of serious replies do you expect?

I’d imagine:

1. A line drawing
2. video link
3. 🫵🕺🪩👽🌙 ?

Yes, spring of 2444 with my brain in a jar.

Undiagnosed (aside from TTT at home) EDS/POTS here (mild), I biked enough to notice a difference but I didn’t hit the point where it aligned with this post (maybe because I don’t really sweat, stress on my body changes the effect?). Even with inactivity, muscle loss is not an issue for me.

Though the biggest issue with cycling for me is that I don’t really have (m)any destinations, distance makes most trips not viable for what they are (particularly factoring in return trip) or add complication when it comes to hours or weather. Daylight savings ending combined with shorter days ruined it for me, too.

I was thinking more about reasons why people don’t go to therapy. Cost (or hoop-jumping to avoid cost), transportation, paperwork, waiting lists, scheduling. Also other blocking issues, like physical health problems, housing situation, personality disorders.

For the US there will likely be a wave of cuts to benefits in the next year, so that does not inspire confidence especially for medications that cannot be quit/switched on-a-dime or medical operations that require follow-ups.

Also when it comes to hobbies, a large part of it really does boil down to money (materials, tools/equipment, space, fees for events). Though other problems (transportation/sparsely-populated area) can also mean a lack of help when running into issues.

Also nope, no deeper external problems here!

Me when

when it is never tail time ever

I am similar, though for me I’d say it’s more of a personality disorder (SzPD) which also makes socialization a dilemma (it’s a term). Though I live somewhere without much to do (+no public transportation), particularly because I have no interest in driving.

Though I lack skills/money, plus have untreated health issues and likely depression.

It feels eerily similar to leaving the house and never having a reason to actually talk to anyone (that’s also me living on the edge of Nowhere).

Slightly better chances here I guess. I’d say it feels more sparse here but I guess thinking back other platforms either had similar results or other issues.

valid criticism*

EDIT: I am referencing Stan Kelly’s political satire cartoons (example)

Is this supposed to be self-deprecating or did you forget to switch accounts?

Honestly I’m not doing good with the rural shut-in USA campaign, especially with my poor rolls and lack of party. I don’t like this game. I can cut and pan-fry vegetables, so I got goin’ for me which is nice… hopefully a good skill to have as a N.Korean child.

Also I feel like hardly anybody would get across the DMZ as a child (as an adult still sounds a bit implausible). Even learning Korean via English (without raising suspicion) seems unlikely without internet so I am just expecting a Dwight-like story about escaping to China. EDIT: I see you changed the language bit

Yes, because of the over-the-top “personally traveled” bit… and it’d likely end with DMCA.

Though looking at just one list of Nintendo’s mass takedown of free fan-games, it seems very likely* it directly resulted in many children being terribly upset (and maybe thinking they’ll be sued/jailed)… even if they made their own assets, just because they included a trademarked term in the title/description for something they just wanted to share with their friends. (I’m sure many did use assets, but we are likely talking about decades-old material here)

So it’s not that big of a stretch, it’s just not guaranteed that we’d hear this much about it.

*= judging by FNAF/sonic crossovers, content/spelling of titles, creepypasta stuff, and likely terrible art if you can still find more than a URL

TMBG is going to be ecstatic.

I would take this deal. (meaning fate on the tracks)

Both is rule

reactions … are incredibly dark

The mood: El Risitas laughing

Aside from a last resort, for what purpose?

I would rather go the opposite direction: brain stays (mostly) stock but supported by multiple other forms of life. Much more of a gut microbiome, harmless viruses etc add to immune system, mycelium network, microbiome automatically cleans surface.

Swap resources with a tree, filter contaminates from air/water or produce organic compounds, photosynthesis in larger tanks (stationary) or luminescence in organic gel (body).

That’d still just be a copy.

And sounds like “I like the idea of ai, but I want something even less ethical.” Unless it is highly specialized to the point of non-sapience. “Existence? Look buddy, I cook and that’s it. I can contemplate the life cycles of ingredients and I do my best to have a safe kitchen, but beyond that I don’t have the information to think about it.”

[ ✔️ ] Willing to convert, but into a cyborg because the distinction is important… but if I’m being honest I’m basically a defective organic robot, so if you put my canned brain into a metal body with a digital voice I would be indistinguishable from a robot.

Can they fix some of my medical problems (cyborg stuff, if possible?), and/or get me out of here? If not, this video: THOSE DAMN ALIEN BASTARDS ARE REAL. (Gianni Matragrano as Duke Nukem)
