This is why Pride is not just a party. It's a joyful celebration, but it's also a pointed and colourful two-finger salute to a world that stood back whilst so many of us died. And we'll never go quietly, never again.

ms. lucas i'm sorry i assumed that "calling sen. tim kaine a cuck" was hyperbole i wasn't familiar with your game

Listen I don't get to decide when the drunk elf that is my executive actually does the functioning but when he does we have a SMALL WINDOW OF TIME before he finds the schnapps again and we're done

yes this exactly

ive been sitting and waiting for these gifs to align like the sailors once waited for the celestial bodies to reveal their path

now that we are all forcibly assigned teen by discord age regression style and everyone has cancelled their nitro. everyone whose been using a solo discord server as your paste bin and project planning folder to hold stuff you can get from your phone and pc both its about time you start saving shit and hop on obsidian. with syncthing you can get it realtime synced between your mobile and pc and any devices for free too. don't pay for monthly fees.

syncthing can be used for fucking anything, im serious if you have a home computer/laptop/steamdeck/phone any kind of multidevice infrastructure, fucking set up synththing, i use it to keep my emulator saves synced between my phone, steamdeck, and pc. when I add books to my calibre library they auto download to my ereader and tablet (You have to have android ones like onyxboox for this), my music collection can be accessed and edited from any of my devices anywhere using a simple home server and syncthing to keep the files up to date between my phone, laptop and server, I can add songs from my phone or computer and they'll auto fill the server. Syncthing can unironically replace so many payed services it's crazy, want to sync your writing without google drive or any paid service? just use libreoffice and syncthing, want to be able to keep drawing between your pc wacom and your tablet? pick a program that supports both and syncthing the project files, Want cloud saves between a steamdeck and pc for non steam games? you'll never guess what syncthing can do.

Opera plot: Local Noble realizes that his affections for Pretty Village Girl have a rival in the form of Honest Laborer. Having read enough romances to know that a girl asked to choose between a rich man and a poor man will always pick the poor man, whereas in a love triangle between two rich men it's anyone's game, he decides that his chief object must be to elevate his rival's wealth and status as quickly as possible. What the Compte de Genre-Savie over here forgot to account for, however, was the overwhelming power of the Pygmalion Effect, and now he has to deal with watching two people he's in love with develop ever-stronger feelings for each other. Eventually all of this resolves via...I don't know.

#first of all: ''comte de genre-savie'' is PERFECT. just great. absolutely no notes.#I would love an opera with this exact plot. bonus points if the comte is genuinely genre savvy#he keeps bringing up opera tropes only for the other characters to look at him like he's insane.#the score is diagetic to him; when he points out reoccurring themes or transitions to minor keys#the other characters ask him what the hell he's talking about. the whole chorus gets together to sing about how#comte de genre-savie is going mad. the comte tries to sneak away and keeps getting pulled back in.#I wonder if you could even push it further - have it so that only the comte can speak or 'hear' spoken words;#all other characters communicate in recitativo secco or formally composed songs#then you can have scenes where the comte is speaking but the other character in the scene can't hear him.#this can be played for laughs (the comte tries to order something from a shopkeeper; the shopkeeper walks away as he's talking)#and for dramatic effect (the Honest Laborer is singing a heartfelt duet with the Pretty Village Girl#and neither of them can hear the comte saying 'I love you' in between their lines)#........I am into this actually. I had to convince myself that this wasn't just cyrano de bergerac but no. it isn't. I'm into it.#upon the stage (via @notbecauseofvictories)
