Random 2: Hellectric Lavaloo The sequel to Random is here because it's one of those things that keeps being whispered of from the back of my mind that is easily doable. Post whatever the heck you want. Ahem.... dmdr Are you okay man? Haven't seen you around for over a month. deathevokation Good to know you're alright. TOS I also hope you're doing okay because you've got quite the dangerous job and one that's well needed. Now it is time to say goodnight because there's rarely a feeling as good as going to bed on time (which I've rarely experienced myself but that's about to change). Goodnight. I'll see y'all later.

Hmmmmm I see. I didn't expect that but your post gives me good reason for additional introspection. I don't know what to do with this new information yet though but recognizing it should be the first step. This does conflict though with my tender longings for eternity and to never change special parts of who I am. This may be a tough pill to swallow.

I like deliberately misinterpreting other people's posts. Mwa ha ha ha. I'm so evil.

Biowar MAP10: Dark Woods is a great forest level. It's so simple yet so effective.

Когда-нибудь цепочка разных необдуманных решений с моей стороны, основанных на эмоциях и представлениях о мире, которые навязаны мне другими людьми, которым уже нет до меня никакого дела, приведёт меня к наихудшему раскладу дел из возможных.

Nah I just had to be random... but what ulterior motives do I have? What did I mean by this? Who knows what mysterious and forbidden knowledge will find its way in this thread, gently rolled out from the depths of empty posting space. I can't help it... I have to satisfy my base desires for chaos! Having dignity is a burden. Having IQ above room temperature may even be a disability (but is very welcome). Everything in moderation as it's said... if humans had not an iota of the seven deadly sins could you still call them human? Sculpted by our lovely creators with an impressive and alien makeup that functions so well, so much so that apparently even the God of ye olde scripture is or was jealous of us. Is it zealotry or envy if not jealousy? Do Gods evolve? I wonder. I still think cancer is bullshit though. To fill the void our society now subscribes to vapid consumerism and the sin of idolatry.

I recently got a complaint from the folks living directly below me that the constant dragging of my massive balls against the floor prevents them from sleeping

Yeah you've got a impressive pair alright. You've got to have balls of steel to be born on this planet in the first place but yours my friend are exceedingly robust. Good job, King!

How is your sanity, people? It seems like social distancing and mask policy is finally killing it for me. My mind can't register a mental handshake validation with other people anymore. I don't know how this thing works but apparently there should be a mental tick "reality consensus is achieved" when you talk to other people, and it is not getting ticked.

aw shucks MegaPancakeStrategist thanks for worrying about me! Anyway yeah I'm alright (but see below), basically I disappeared because: a) I was working on a speedmap for DBP27 but it was very much a retread of what I've been doing since DBP20, leading to: b) a nagging feeling that I've run out of ideas; as a consequence: c) a desire to take a bit of a break from Doom in general. At the same time, the quarantine/roneriness and associated boredom was really getting to me too, so I decided that the cure for that was to socially isolate myself further and not even talk to anyone on the internet, let alone real life (I guess it makes sense or I wouldn't have done it, right?).
Anyway I spent my time indulging in some really embarrassing, escapist garbage and generally being worthless (example: I watched Love Live!, which I dl'ed when it came out and was really popular to see what the fuss was about. Back then I couldn't even stomach a whole episode, but this time I got through the whole thing... and liked it. The cracking mask of sanity etc. etc.). More recently one of the neighbourhood moggies decided she'd like to live with me, so I have a cat now, which has been fun (I'd post a photo but apparently I don't have a suitable USB cable for my phone anywhere). Luckily things are starting up again, so I'll be able to go see some bands in the next couple weeks. I've started reading proper books again too and I'm thinking about going to sword-fighting lessons too, since these dudes aren't too far away from me: www.adelaideswordacademy.com/Anyway this turned into a bit of a blogpost so thanx 4 reedin as always!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think everyone's social skills dumb down when they don't talk to someone long enough. Going outside and having some fresh air with some good greenery to admire should restore some sanity. I mean, it works in video games so why not? My sanity is currently challenged by not being able to sleep when I want to and, now, whether that's up to being engaged in this forum's latest dumpster fire wouldn't be a bad assumption. I imagine that in the past I'd have complained about it and left the thread alone but now I'm either too cool or too insane to do that. I didn't mind being called 'loyal' per se since I believe that's something to take pride in as it's a quality rarely recognizable nowadays (so it's a shame that it was used in a derogatory way). Its been a fun and engaging roller coaster ride today I guess and at the end of the day I'm feeling pretty okay.
I imagine that all this social distancing and mask policy stuff is like a bad dream you can't wake up from. You'd probably be called insane describing the world today a decade or so ago but here we are in bizarro world as the result of much compounded nonsense. It's okay to cry; I sure did (and funnily enough it was a frickin' meme image that started it). I've been a recluse all year but that still doesn't mean I shouldn't engage with the world in a meaningful way. On and off I've been battling those dang inner demons time and time again and making effort at more self-improvement which in of itself can be a little toxic if I can't accept how good I am at the moment and I am still struggling but I have to make it through. Clap your hands, jazzercise, and drink some orange juice. Cheers!

dmdr Howdy! You're welcome! I have so many Doom map ideas but haven't put them in the editor which should definitely be helped. Yeah I need to be dedicated to social isolation like that again as I've done so a few times before but maybe I'm just not bored enough! At least isolating myself on the Doom side of things and make an effort to connect with people again elsewhere. I've socialized some playing card games over webcam last month so that's cool. Sword-fighting lessons sounds awesome and I've always wanted to try fencing (and donning metal armor as that's the fashion all true warriors strive for) so that sounds like a lot of fun! Nice job on the Love Live watching too because I don't think I could do that, but even more so because the art style doesn't appeal too much to me. Maybe I need to find my own super kyun kyun anime next to watch. Closest I've seen lately is Miss Kobayashi's Dragonmaid which was great and I look forward to season 2!

dmdr, glad you are with us. Yeah, makes sense, by placing further restrictions on yourself you kind of proved to yourself you are still in control of your own life. Now we can dispute whether it is truly so, but at least the intent is obvious - it does make sense.

Life affirmation, eh? You ALWAYS have a choice. There are only the consequences of your choices to consider. You have free will! Reach for the stars!
EDIT: Forgot to add that you always have a choice at any time, like getting up or leaving the bed whenever you so choose.

I actually almost received a fine for violating the curfew when it was first installed, so screw "you always have a choice". It is like I always have a choice of bank robbery or of an illegal immigration by crossing borders where there is no patrol, fuck meaningless choices like that.

Well now I just feel silly for last night's postings. I was trying to have a connection with you since I've mostly just shitposted after your inquiries and that didn't work and I guess I screwed up at the end. Perhaps I should have tried to just give more "reality-affirming" advice than being all emo. My condolences and apologies good sir.
EDIT: So many lurkers here. Hi!

I have good news. The fog in my mind has gone away, no reason to worry anymore. I will have a lot of things to say to my doctor in the Monday though, in the past few days I received intravenous injection as part of treatment for my dermatitis, and it looks like it was the culprit (today I was not getting shot). Either this particular drug is not good for me, or something went wrong, but adjustments clearly have to be made.

This is kinda dorky but I feel like mentioning it. I've noticed @vigilantdoomer and MegaPancakeStrategist tag people's names in their posts a lot. I really like that. It's fun to get a little notification that someone took the time to write your name. I'm going to do that more often and I hope others start to do it when talking to each other too. Keep up that good energy

Thanks though for me just writing the name doesn't do it and I also have to press the Insert User Link button (I've tried typing the '@' at the start of the names but it never lit up green in the previews I think) to make it a green notification and I haven't made the names green every time but I sure will if it's important!
AHEM Now where was I? Oh yes....
Notifications are mysterious but so enticing and usually yield a dopamine hit. Has technology fracked itself into our brains so matter-of-factly as to shower us with such sweet nothings that pleasure the lizard brain so effortlessly? Using the senses to let you know the world has heard you. It's a nice feeling to know the world acknowledges your existence, and is there really a sweeter sound than that of one's own name?

Yeah you need to type the @. It's like on twitter or Instagram, your profile name can be "EPIC 100% MINORITY EXTERMINATOR" but your @ will be "jasonvolleyball2006"
