If you're wondering why I haven't posted much lately, it's because it's all on Mastodon. I only keep the Twitter account around to keep up with friends who haven't moved yet. But as trans erasure is now official policy here, I don't know how much longer I can wait for you.
@DanzaDurg But I will say if *nothing* makes you happy any more, that's not a symptom of your life being broken, it's a symptom of your happy sense being broken, and there are medical solutions to that. It's a bit of a lottery but the prize is so big that it's worth getting a ticket.
@DanzaDurg Sorry it's taken a while to reply to this. You're right, it's easy to rush to useless advice like "do more exercise" or "just push through it", tho depression can hit no matter how rich or successful you are. But it's still people who care for you trying to help any way they can.

@TheRealCosmik This would be helpful, as the old people at accordion club keep playing Baby Face as a sing-a-long, but I can't do it at cons because nobody under 50 knows the words.
@riffraccoon The only thing that would improve this is if it were raining and the cyclists were holding umbrellas. Oh yeah, also a field of tulips in the background.
@FluXiled Are you sure? The flat, mismatched lighting on the people is pretty standard for archviz because they use "cardboard cutout" pre-posed humans, but AI image generators tend to overdo the lighting and shadow in this kind of scene.
@RitaTheMousey@scrimmypone@CampEquestria Thanks, I'm really glad you and so many other ponies enjoyed it. The whole event was super inspiring and I'm glad I managed to catch at least part of every set.
@JakeM_Wolf Hot take: the best setting of chicken katsu I have ever had wasn't with curry but in a sandwich, at the National Kabuki Theatre in Kyoto. The bread made it crispier, like a fish finger butty.
