    I can never tell if Shiv is weird as a bit or if she is really just weird. I assume that's her intention.

    You should ask those who've met me in person - spool, bleric, belasco, quid, mazzy, sig, etc.

    Uhh who else

    kedinik, elldren, arch, OH CREDEIKI, obvs, she's my bro, holy shit this list is long
    I would ask but whenever I ask chat something people just tell me to google it

    It is both a bit and an actual thing; the weirdness is self-aware and well-crafted but also is not an inaccurate reflection of reality.

    Or at least that's my read :P

    This is the kindest thing you've ever said to me :P

    Kobold, if it makes you feel any better, I was feeling overwhelmed by and despairing at my lack of ability right up until I got my CS degree and then also past that point up to the current time.

    shivahn is demonstrably a weirdo. whether it's performative or just a natural presentation of her personality is up for discussion

    you can find my analysis of the matter- coupled with anemic, almost nonexistent supporting data- in the library of congress

    It's not inaccurate to say that I do not attempt to present a persona, here, such that in person I am similar (Cleric has said I am "more silly," actually), but the particular kinds of weirdness that come our are mirrored reflections of y'all and my joke impulses are only made flesh by the starting off points that chat presents.

    Which is to say it is you who are weird.

    I'd argue that all presentations of our personality are performative, or at the very least, reactionary.

    sorry, i mean

    the building you are near is not really mine

    it doesn't really matter either way, but for some reason override's building says I own it

    we dunno why

    I am in the bro zone along the absolute southern edge of the map, in the large part of the river

    there are other houses down there too

    but some people have things, right

    i am a natural sad sacker, hungry person, high class aspirant

    you commonly bookend thoughts with 'buuuut then again my gf and i talked about dog orgasms on our first date so maybe i'm biased', and other socially unusual morbid/scientific benchmarks

    desc is a morose aesthetic-fukkboi preoccupied with imagery and the iconography of subcultures (cars, sad women, et cetera)

    so then, when we come to people who don't have especially strong, memetic personalities with recognizable constructs and repeatable patterns

    are they the boring, dead eyed weirdos

    or we the self indulgent performers

    hmmm

    We are the reoccurring extras of [chat]. Like the guy who runs the Klingon restaurant in DS9. Completely forgettable but part of the constant background.

    Probably not. Constantly doing meaningful shit is tiring and leaves no time for vidja.

    The morbidness is an outgrowth of the extreme discomfort I feel with what I do day to day, incidentally.

    That's not... me, that's me grappling with horrible paralyzing guilt.
