"Bee-HAWWWWW! BEE-hawww" If you don't click the link/open your app while imitating a donkey, then what are you even doing? <3

I’m one of those writers that has to really be in the mood to write or else it feels forced. So, to limit my distractions or case of “Ugh, okay I’ll just look for 5 more minutes…” which turns into a hour.

I found those really neat program called Ommwriter. Its literally just text. There’s no UI or anything. I think you can customize the background, but I haven’t felt the need to change anything.

Agree too. I used to lurk on r/ffxiv so i hope things like that make their own thing on this platform too.

I'm glad we are 100% on the same wavelength on that, RiddleMeWhy.

Honestly, same here up in Canada; the expectation is "they" came to "us" and need to adjust to "our" ways. Scarcely do we take the time to put the effort into doing the same; whether that be in the form of actively trying to understand that culture, gender, or sexuality, etc.

The act of genuinely just acknowledging that there are other people in the room with different and valid viewpoints that, like or unlike, your own do in fact exist! Especially to try to consciously do this before you type your response, and be kind, speaks volumes to the room. It goes unspoken, though, the effort it takes to be civil, even when something upsets you. It just takes a moment to be kind.

Well, to weigh in here...I don't think I saw anywhere about the admins saying it's not a topic up for discussion. I believe what they were saying is that in order to organize the communities in a way that is feasible for members (of Beehaw or other) to be able to see/find communities in a broader sense.

While I am not vegan or vegetarian...I can understand the frustration. It's like trying to combine (for lack of a better example) arts. Lets say they combined a Sci-Fi and Fantasy board. While they may be radically different at their core, they can still fall under the broader category of writing or arts. Even though they may contrast or not even be completely related... its the broader sense of organizing them into categories that can easily be digested. I know it may be a stretch, but this is how I choose to interpret these actions. It's not a snub or a malicious intent behind the restructuring, just some house cleaning.

Now, I can't speak for the mods and admins... but... with boards like this, just as categories can be combined, they can also be separated. Who is to say that this may not happen in the future as Beehaw continues to grow. It's never said that this was meant to be permanent, so far as I can see. Again, can't speak for the mods or admins but they could also make it go under one title and two separate boards under one heading. Names can easily be modified.

I'm certain that if we talk to the admins/mods, respectfully, as they have been with us, it'll make it easier to co-operate.

Just my 2 cents. :)

Maybe this is moot since they would just do the usual Square Enix “remaster” (read: poorly upscaled and very basic QoL improvements)

I want some love for Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross. Even if they just made it 2.5 HD similar to Octopath Traveller, Diofield Chronicle, etc

I’m not sure if it’s been said yet, but I think it needs to be.

There is no time limit on coming out. There is nothing—absolutely nothing—that says you have to decide to come out or not, either! It is personal. It’s your truth and your sexuality. What matters is that you feel comfortable with yourself and how you feel.

Honestly, it’s human nature to think ‘about the what if’ and it makes wonder about what life may have been like if you had just… Nope, that’s when stop the train right there and get off of it, lol. Sure things could have been different but that’s neither here nor there.

Don’t beat yourself up for past you’s mindset. Acknowledge yourself and how you’ve grown since then and just be ❤️ there is no need to put ourselves into boxes with labels. We are all people and we shouldn’t be viewed one way or another based solely on who we have in our bedroom.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that we can’t dwell on the past. As you said you’re happy with your partner and want to make a life with them. That’s all that should matter, man or woman.

Big hugs 🫂

Thank you, I appreciate that. I'll give this a read.

I played the demo and I was so sad when it ended. Really sucked me in good!

Sadly, I think they were a little too faithful to the originals. Don't get me wrong I love it and some of the improvements made are great. However I also totally agree about the customization and the town kind of feels dead. Unless you want some kind of reward out of a character it feels pointless to interact with any of them... like the lines are the exact same over multiple years lol.

Waiting til payday for Final Fantasy XVI. Stuffing my time with Genshin Impact, Pokémon and Final Fantasy XIV!

I'm new to these kinds of sites, but like to think I can navigate my way, haha. It's great and kind of refreshing that everything is so interconnected though and only need one sign in to view across content!

I've tried using Mastodon app and this other website called Beehaw. So, in my experience I can sub, but in order to see content from here I have to physically navigate through the communities > subscribed page.

I'm just going to be patient with it... it's propably just buggy because it's new. :P
