hi so i forgot to message the person who was next (sorry HelltakerHomosexual) so i'm just gonna talk about a thing i like

Shadow the Hedgehog is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Characterized by his sharp wit and strong sense of purpose, Shadow is a recurrent arch-rival of Sonic the Hedgehog, whom he resembles and shares many abilities. He is a major supporter of trans people, as evidenced by his catchphrase, "Trans people are cool!"

^ this is all from the wiki btw

I like Shadow a lot. His first appearance in the series is in a game where him and Sonic are both fighting the government and destroying these multi-million dollar gunships. Sonic is doing it because he loves communism but Shadow is doing it because he has a blood feud against G.U.N., who are like the global government death squads because they killed this girl, Maria, who he was best friends with.

Maria basically had an incurable illness that Eggman's grandpa was trying to cure by creating an immortal lifeform, which is actually how Shadow was born. Also, Shadow has a copy of Maria's soul I guess? Seriously, look it up. I'm reading all this shit for the first time right now and that sounds kinda trans to me.

Anyway, she gets shot by the troops and despite Maria telling Shadow to be normal and happy, Eggman's grandpa is pissed off about it so he starts psyopping Shadow into wanting to kill everyone on Earth. Eggman's grandpa successfully does the psyop and locks Shadow away until Eggman finds and releases him.

With his newfound power, Shadow starts being evil and helping Eggman find the Chaos Emeralds because he sees him piss on the moon or something. This goes on for a while until he gets back on the space station and remembers what Maria said, deciding to finally be normal and happy.

He switches up, goes Hyper Shadow and helps Sonic defeat the Biolizard which is basically what it sounds like: a giant lizard who wears the space station like a little jacket and shoots lasers from his mouth. Also, that thing was the prototype Ultimate Lifeform before they decided on the optimal form of existence: a little bipedal anthro hedgehog.

So they beat this lizard up, I guess it dies and then the space station is hurtling toward the Earth. Shadow takes a Chaos Emerald and, with the help of Sonic, does one last Chaos Control on the space station, returning it to a stable altitude. Sonic finds himself back on the space station as he flies into the atmosphere. After this, a big semi-translucent Shadow appears on top of the Earth and everyone can see it.

Why would I lie about that? Here it is.

Anyway, a bunch of shit happens after that but I don't care about it. If someone else wants to talk about Shadow the Hedgehog (2005) feel free. What I really wrote this out to justify talking about is the moon in Sonic games. Like I said before, the moon gets pissed on and destroyed with the help of Shadow,

and then in the next game it's just fine but evil now(???)

and after THAT it's not evil anymore but it's fully intact:

What the fuck? Why? How? I watched it get blown up. Who put the moon back together? Anyway, we're getting in the weeds here. Welcome to the mega.

Can I say an X where X is a sentence in a language that can be recognized by a parser of the PCRE regular expression ^[^abcdfjklpqruvwxyz]{9} [^a-z0-9][0-9]$?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I think you probably could say a lot of sentences, if we're assuming Unicode support, given the way this is laid out, as long as they end with a number.

::: spoiler spoiler However, I do see that you excluded "p", that is good foresight. Pee pee does not match (for several reasons)

Shit I have a meeting

Oh, this one is a me classic.

One solution: I bought some comfy house dresses that I wear at home. Now I don't think fem or masc, I just think "mmm comfy house dress" and put it on as the default.

This way, I spend way more time in femme stuff without a lot of pressure, and I kinda just vibe

Done with most of my legal name change now. It'll still be at least a month until all my documents are in order because the driver's license will take a while until it gets printed, but i've at least applied for everything that comes with some kind of ID card and my information has been updated in all government files. Will probably be able to exchange my temporary ID to the permanent one early next week, and a bunch of stuff came in the mail today. It's weird being in this liminal space where i still have to keep a copy of my name change certificate in my car in case i get pulled over, especially given that the old license has a pic of 20 year old me with a bushy denial beard, but i constantly keep running into situations where i notice i would've been called up as Mr. or gotten mail under my deadname and instead i see my full, real name on the envelope or people at some office or on the phone immediately gender me correctly.

Is it just me or does starting E and spiro feel like a medium (sub tripping) dose of mushrooms? My head feels funny in the same way where it seems like new connections are being made and I also got nausea that eventually passed. Anyway, 3rd day on the juice possum-party

Pinging @[email protected] as a subject matter expert, but I have questions for the community in general.

So, for decorating my black leather jacket , I am thinking of stencil-painting the 72 demonic sigils of the Ars Goetia up the sleeves (36 wrapped around each sleeve), and then painting either the magic circle of the Ars Goetia, the Secret Seal of Solomon, or stenciling the Preliminary Invocation text. This would all be in red or gold paint.

My questions:

  • First, general vibe / aesthetic check: cringe or potentially based?
  • I'm neither a practitioner or really a believer in Goetia or other magick practices, so I am a bit concerned about this sort of display being appropriative. -

My dad just saw my profile picture somewhere else (same character, different artwork) and asked if it was a portrait of me that my sister drew. I was confused at first, because I was wondering if he saw something else, but nope, he thought that the character looked like me.

I mean, looking back at it again, I guess I can see how he came to that conclusion. She kind of looks like me, in some sort of way. I guess I'll take the compliment! Unfortunately, my sister can't, because she wasn't the one who drew it.

Just got a text reminder from the vet for the cat me and my ex owned. Ugh. I hope he's okay (the cat), it's gonna be a pain in the ass (emotionally) to get the message to my ex.

Got the passport application turned in. Was nervous about the postal clerk saying something about the gender marker change, but he was nice and didn't even mention it. The process was fast, although it was a bit expensive. I opted for the expediated service to ensure that it's processed within the next couple of weeks.
