this App Store review just said something along the lines of “it's very simple and that's good but maybe they could add something more to it like letting you make an account”

buddy this is a text editor

@narylis 🙃 is a bit more absurd/silly to me; 🙂 is more like “customer service smile” or “i’m refusing to even dignify this an emotion because it's so exasperating”

@alyssa yeah, you're supposed to just use rest parameters now as they are virtually identical

cohost, hoo boy 

@noelle i think that they both don't have anyone to do PR and frankly could not afford someone with the requisite skillset and experience lol

i think they have a bunch of nebulous thoughts in their head about what they want their site to look like, which probably includes some variation of “no child porn”, but have absolutely no clue how to translate into policy and are kind of bumbling along on a basis of “rough consensus between members”

it's a lot easier to agree on “we're still working on this and if it were allowed these would be the tags” than “here are our hard policy guidelines about what we consider acceptable” so that's what they went with first

cohost: we are currently working to implement a system to allow us to get user input on this area of policy

congratulations, you just created one, it's called the replies to this post

buddy if you didn't want people angrily responding when you announced changes to your content policy but didn't have prepared details as to what those policy changes were, why did you start an isolated one-size-fits-all moderated platform and then announce policy changes while leaving the details undecided then

lol @ cohost “:dog_tilting_head: complete transparency into our process can backfire??”

i think it is both funny and accurate that Hisuian Zoroark has a 7♂:1♀ sex distribution and also looks like this

feels a bit disrespectful to me like you're missing the point of the book

why does everyone sort books by colour these days doesn't that make it hard to find what you need

i just think that pokémon has gotten a lot better at making good games but less good at making fun ones

there's a way in which having a good game is more important; like chess is boring as shit but people still play it because it is a Good Game

but i don't think that with pokémon the two have to be at odds necessarily, since there is lots of game which is not battling and more than enough pokémon to where they don't all have to be designed with competition in mind. there's lots of room to stick in fun things which don't step on the toes of any of the lasting Game aspects. i don't think it's a tactical decision not to i think they've just gotten bad at it

to be clear i still enjoyed Shining Pearl quite a bit

Show thread

as someone who grew up with Gen IV and thought Platinum was great and HeartGold was kind of mediocre, it was interesting this year to learn that i have way more fun playing Crystal than Shining Pearl

@coriander like it's a movie for squares and squares don't want alienfucking but beyond that what even is there in avatar

@coriander no what's stopping most people is that if you're into alien sex there are a lot more interesting franchises to write for

@coriander i would be afraid to both read and write an avatar fanfic

because of all the like

colonialism

noodle ravioli with cheese alfredo and meat chicken
