18/11/2024 Neat Interaction with Others
Hi! Yo! Very much bonjour to you people from the internet!!! I hope everyone has been having a nice day. I know that times are hard for eveyone, but I wish y'all nothing but the best.
Now that my mind is much cleaner than before, I got somethings to talk about! Which I'm gonna do right now, at this moment. Shocking, I know.
So, I as I said in the last blogpost, I joined Bluesky to test things out. What do I think about it? Eh, it isn't bad.
Basically it works kinda like twitter, but the difference is that I feel it's pretty costumizable in comparison. There is like, a list of topics that you can follow to see post of a specific topic, being much easier to see what you want to see. On top of that you can use those list to block eveyone included in them, meaning that there's lists of a bunch of bad people that you can block almost in an instant, which I think it's great. It makes possibility to see bullcrap to be really small. Also I think the people there are really kind? But there is the chance that's just the bubble I'm in, so I dunno if our experiences are the same.
I still much prefer to have a personal website and to talk with people through neocities or my guestbook since this website can look however I want, I just need time and patience to put my soul into it, and that's something social media can't really compete with. Still, it isn't like everyone is confident enough to deal with coding, which is kind of bummer to me, but just because I like doing this. Although, I suppose I don't have much choice when I make a game or a comic or something, because even with a site, I need people to even know it exist, so it needs a social media account to promote it. I mean, unless I want to bet my luck and hope I make a game so cool looking and successful that I social media account isn't necessary!!! Oh, that would be a dream! Unfortunally, that might be way more difficult, so I doubt it would happen... Still, I will continue to work on this site for as long as I can! Because this way I can express myself, I feel happy and I have a little space on the internet just for me and people that like the stuff that I do. I wish nothing but the best for every webmaster out there! You make the internet a better and much enjoyable place! Thank you forever.
Also, someone from the course I'm taking has talked to me recently! They saw me doodling on my sketchbook and they where really interested in it. We exchanged our sketchbooks and looked at each others' drawings, which was really nice! They said they wanted to make a webtoon and I every page that had a character had all these notes, explaning the chara's likes, dislikes, how they act and so on.
They said they liked my drawings and thought they were pretty unique and they already had ideas for comics and such. So they wanted to make a collaboration, where they write stories and I make the drawings. From there we talked the vibes I would like to make and we ended up searching comic, webseries, ARGs and the works. It was really nice to learn about new topics and to talk about stuff that I like with someone else in real life!
They said my humor sounds fit for stuff like Happy Tree Friends. I got kinda curious when they mentioned that, since I never really watched HTF in my life. I mean, I know what it is and how it goes: a cute looking cartoon where eveything goes wrong everyone dies and there's blood everywhere. I decided to test my luck and maybe see what it is like and I found a Fallout Boy music video that literally had the same artstyle, that's because the music video was HTF. I thought "Oh yeah it's the guys that made Immortals from Big Hero 6. I really liked that one! I suppose it doesn't hurt to watch", do I did. My veredict? It isn't that bad. Sure that's because I'm 18 and such, but like, I didn't found it disturbing or anything. I mean, it IS explicit, but everything is so over the top that it makes you say "Woah! Holy crap" than "Bro, what the hell????". It's kinda like a action movie or a cheesy horror movie. It doesn't mean it's for everyone, but considering it isn't far off from other late 1999s/early 2000s things that people remember often, like literally anything from Newgrounds LoL.
Now, I think I went way too far from the actual topic, so lemme go back a bit. They told me that maybe I should make a instagram account, because 1. if we make the collaboration, they want to tag me correctly, so it would be easier and 2. people from instagram would like my artstyle, at least from what they told me. So yeah, maybe we need to think more a little bit, but I guess I need to use one more social media in the future, which yeah, I think that's just how things roll, so I better face it's sort of inevitable.
But yeah I hope we will talk more often!!
I've seen today that The Game Awards are pretty close and I sorta realized I haven't played much games made in this year. I saw someone saying that this year "didn't have enough interesting things", but I dunno, I disagree. There were a lot of cool games this year... the thing is: Damn, they're pretty expensive, huh? Seriously I think the only cheap game that's being nominated as GOTY is Balastro, but I haven't played that either. It's probably fun, but I just don't think it's for me. But hey, a indie game is being nominated GOTY! I mean, it has the chance, it still haven't been confirmed.
I Think instead of the deciding the best the game made in the year, people should comment about the games that they played in the year, regardless of when it was released. That way there would be more viarity and it would be much cooler. Of course that doesn't work for the corporate world, with announcements to show and to put a cool sticker on the box as some sign of merit, even if in the end it being considerade the "best of the best" doesn't really mean anything if you don't agree with it.
Well, the last thing I have to tell is that I'm going to vacation next month. Yes, we going to Curitiba again, but it's gonna take a little longer than last year. There is still a lot of ground to cover until we go out, but I'm stating this now because we are discussing stuff for my birthday - yup, we're celebrating it there - so I think it's good to say it now, even if I'll probably comment on it later as well. I hope it's gonna be a great vacation like before! Kinda weird to think it has already passed one year of me making this site and now it's almost one year of me starting this blog. Time really flies, huh? At least I'm glad I get to document it right here.
Ok that's it for now! I'm planning to work on the "writings" page after this. I was thinking of subject and I think the very first thing should be a "review" of Puyo Puyo Fever. I mean, it IS the face of the main page after all, so I think it's fitting. I've been thinking that maybe I should rename the "writings" page to just "reviews", since that's what I was inspired by when making it, but now I think it's better to leave it as it is, since that way there's more room for me to talk about whatever, right? Like, I could make some other "list of cool phrases from videogames", so I suppose the name isn't bad. Maybe I should just rewrite the explanation text, but I'll work on that later.
Good day/evening/night for anyone who is anyone that's reading this! Take care!
