23:49:39: ZERA: I ain’t seducing shit.

23:50:31: UNO: did they all burn down?
23:50:33: OMANUEL: you okay, z?
23:50:50: ZERA: It’s been a rough week.
23:51:12: ZERA: couldn’t be bothered to count the bodies.
23:51:18: LOSTEAGL: Asset disposal?
23:51:20: SWIMSONG: !!!!!!
23:51:20: BOTAMI: idiot
23:51:20: UNO: dumbass
23:51:25: LOSTEAGL: ???
23:51:30: OMANUEL: Dude did you not read the ToS?
23:51:38: OMANUEL: The thing that you have to accept every time you sign in?
23:51:39: UNO: ZERA is typing
23:51:40: SWIMSONG: ZERA is typing
23:51:46: LOSTEAGL: I’ve read it. I don’t *get* it, but I’ve read it.
23:51:49: LOSTEAGL: Many times.
23:51:52: ZERA: You wouldn’t.
23:52:07: ZERA: You surface pricks never do.
23:52:11: LOSTEAGL: Don’t be like that…
23:52:13: ZERA: ZERA is typing
23:52:15: LOSTEAGL: . . .
23:52:20: LOSTEAGL: Take your time, then.
23:53:34: ZERA: “Asset disposal” is a dehumanizing term employed by the execs up top to wipe their own consciences clean while training us at the literal bottom to not even see each other as people. If you don’t get the ToS, then count yourself blessed to not need reminding every day about what you actually are.
23:52:46: ZERA: We don’t get funerals down here in the brine.
23:52:55: ZERA: We don’t get to mourn or cry the loss of loved ones.
23:54:04: ZERA: we’re told to observe and respect the loss of company assets and property that must be disposed of and to view the deaths before us as personal shortcomings that should have been prevented by the same fuckers who keep ignoring or just fucking delighting in the fact that half of these “shortcomings” are by design from failing equipment or health we can’t afford to maintain because we were never meant to.
23:54:42: ZERA: the “Assets” that get thrown out after having anything of worth extracted from their lifeless bodies died because the execs need people to die to keep up their shitty messaging and motivational farce
23:54:50: ZERA: i will not have that here
23:54:52: ZERA: they were people
23:54:54: ZERA: they died
23:55:00: ZERA: they died doing everything they fucking could not to die
23:55:09: ZERA: they deserve to be mourned, not paraded around as a threat
23:55:16: LOSTEAGL: The company calls you assets because they own you.
23:55:24: ZERA: THE COMPANY OWNS US BECAUSE THEY MADE THE RULES THAT ALLOW THEM TO
23:55:26: ZERA: HUMAN BEINGS ARE NOT PROPERTY
23:55:29: ZERA: GET THAT OR FUCK OFF
23:55:33: BOTAMI: seriously, Eagle…?
23:55:34: UNO: need to learn when to ci, dude : /
23:55:58: OMANUEL: I wasn’t even allowed to mourn my dad when he died.
23:56:13: LOSTEAGL: what?
23:56:18: OMANUEL: I’m company property.
23:56:27: OMANUEL: They took me in to see his corpse before the lost asset service.
23:56:48: OMANUEL: I learned my father died while the suit who’d be handling my foster homing grilled into me that the same would happen to me if I didn’t “respect company property enough.”
23:56:58: OMANUEL: The company property was his implants.
23:57:12: OMANUEL: The ones they coerced him into getting and paying for.

sometimes you just gottaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

your turn u_u

Here's the Kitty Arcade animation test runs, full res and patched up for your viewing pleasure. (The uploads to Discord each had their own little export issues I've tried to correct here.) Enjoy!

   
   

Held a poll for this one to see what kind of trap Catra has triggered! The result was that she's about to encounter a sexy doppelganger. We'll see how that goes!

   

I'm not sure how to describe the kind of job where someone basically pays you to fuck your own wife for fun, but I certainly don't mind it. Is this how I imagined Sera getting drug into the Arcade? I'm not sure I imagined anything at all. I wasn't sure how I felt about the idea, honestly. But then this got plopped into my lap, and like.... fuckin' look at it.

   
   
   
   

I'm a filthy little skank, as it should be. I'd fukken do it again!! I regret nothing!!!

(Sorry if this takes a hot minute to load, y'all! This post alone is like half of my total attachment uploads so far lol OOPS)

Semi-bent-rules commission for @PhlogsAnnoyMe on Twitter featuring a couple YCH placeholder gals from a couple years back that they just seem to really have taken a liking to (this is not the first time and if I keep letting them be hot as shit it almost certainly won't be the last; we should... probably name them?)

I tossed Catra in the back so it STILL COUNTS HAHA LOOPHOLE even though I'm the boss and nobody can really get mad at me for this shit anyway.

   

For anyone curious, my directions were to reference literally any frame of this porn clip. It is... very nice. A+ lesbian eat-out session. Thank you, ma'ams.

Score! You finally got that catgirl you like to agree to a hook-up! Her only condition was that you do it at her place. No biggie, right?

   

Oh no! It's a shithole! What do you do?

Is everything working?

It looks like it's working.

This is somewhat based on my own ability to stop feeling like lethargic dogshit, but apps are open regardless. You know the drill. I will likely accept the usual two to three, and there's a couple subs in there already I need to look over, but as ever this is set up so I can pick the most invigorating of the bunch for the stream lot.

I am heavily considering a format change for these of some sort but am slightly undecided on the details. I feel like I'm invoking a kind of choice paralysis with how many gals there are and wonder if it would be better if we took up a rotating roster or followed some sort of weekly theme / setting to narrow the decisions down a bit and maybe inspire ideas in the clientele. I am very open to input on this.

I also still do not have the on-screen branding reinstated, but that's because it was a lot of work in the first place for something that never got out of a heavy alpha state, and I would like to consider something more sustainable. The pixel art is nice but I just do not have time nor patience to make a million little animations for everybody in such a meticulous manner right now.

Sometime next week (around May 6th, I think it said) Dreamhost is going to be pushing servers to PHP 8. I am not sure why they are doing this (PHP8 is presently an option as-is but is considered opt-in) or if I will be allowed to change my server's version back.

Given warnings on MyBB's website, it is safe to say this may very well disrupt or even shut down forum service until MyBB itself updates to comply with PHP8's changes. I am... unsure how to update MyBB if MyBB is not working, but I'll try and figure it out if it comes to that.

Hopefully I can just revert or opt out somehow, but, y'know, if not, here's your warning.
