Yeah, I don’t have that button either. I’m in the same situation as you.

What are moderators supposed to see? I was added as a moderator on m/stinkbadgers and I can’t see any panel with tools. The only thing that’s different since I was made a moderator is that I have a “moderate” option in the “more” menu on any thread or comment

Take on me is a great one! but gotta get the voice really warmed up to have a chance at it

My #1 karaoke song is Rehab by Amy Winehouse

Making things more vertical is always good. Find ways to hang things on walls or put up shelves. Accessory items (necklaces, scarves, sunglasses) are good candidates for hanging up. You could even hang up some commonly used cables for easy access. You can buy things to mount with lots of hooks, or just hang stuff on pushpins or jumbo pushpins… or hang up some sort of rope-y thing and hang stuff off of that.

You could consider IKEA cube storage units (KALLAX)… there can also be versions of these at other stores. You can even stack one on top of your dresser. (be careful it won’t fall over and crush anyone). IKEA has inserts that fit perfectly into their cubes to add drawers or subdivide into two smaller shelves. You can also get cube shaped storage basket things that fit in this style of furniture.

Check out storage containers geared towards people who do arts & crafts, you can find some interesting storage options there ,particularly if you have a lot of small items to sort

I love it from the very first listen.

My ideal system would have two things to vote on… whether you like/agree with a comment and whether you think it contributes to the discussion. So you could upvote an entertaining quippy comment but also vote that it doesn’t really contribute anything meaningful, and you could downvote something you disagree with while still indicating it adds to the discussion.

I doubt people would use it correctly, but I think its a nice idea in theory.

I used to enjoy this series of VHS tapes in the late 80s called “Terrific Trips” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrhVMYKOhvQ

Wow Furcadia is still a thing? I remember it being around like… idk… 20 years ago. If its still going, that’s pretty cool. I love when old parts of the internet are still there, just chugging away in their own little corner.

That’s a good question. Some anime styles, definitely not. Other anime styles, maybe. But it definitely doesn’t feel “childish” to me in the same way anthropomorphic animals do. It may be my personal experience. I associate anthropomorphic animals, and the particular art style of furries, to media I consumed between the ages of like 2 and 8. I wasn’t exposed to anime until I was a young teenager, so it doesn’t really have that association with childhood for me.

I really do find it fascinating to analyze these biases, because I do consider it an irrational bias that I have. I can analyze the reasons for it, but it isn’t really a logic, just a feeling.

I find the anthropomorphic children’s cartoon aesthetic of furries to be extremely cringe. Its juvenile and ugly, and then when its sexualized or people are making fursuits, it becomes exponentially more cringe.

I think if furries had a better art style and less weirdly anthropomorphized, I might even be on board.

Edit: I just want to be clear that I don’t hate furries at all and have friends who are furries who I love and respect. I’m just trying to be honest about what I find off-putting about it because I imagine there are other people who have a similar “cringe” reaction to the art style and translate that into hate.

Thigh highs don’t enslave, they support and embrace the legs

Pants enslave your legs. Free yourself.

I used to dream about my teeth falling out pretty often, and then those dreams stopped. I think its because as I’ve gotten older, the idea of losing my teeth doesn’t freak me out anymore. My subconscious has removed that nightmare from the regular rotation since its no longer effective.

I never considered starting from the bottom as a possibility. How did I never consider this?

Yeah they used rotoscoping to do the animations. It turned out amazing and captured such realistic movement in just basic pixels.

Alpha Centauri was incredible.

Seeing DOOM for the first time was amazing. I’d seen Wolfenstein 3D, but I couldn’t stand the graphics and it made me nauseous. DOOM looked much better and the music was cool too. I would watch my dad play for hours but I didn’t play it myself until my dad gave me the cheat codes (As an 8 year old girl, I was too scared to play without invincibility lol, I’d panic and quit as soon as I was taking any damage). I loved exploring the levels and trying to find the secret areas.

I want to reach out and touch that floof

I love Morrowind so much that I refuse to admit to its ugliness. I will choose to believe that the less-than-perfect graphics simply enhance the alien look and feel.
