Magic

Episode 2 is out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vluX-LA1Vc8

God remains dead. Our grandparents killed Him. They seek comfort, thinking themselves the murderers of all murderers. We will wipe this blood off them. We will invent the sacred games, the festivals of apotheosis, to rejoice in this great deed. We will become gods, the worthy inheritors of this divine act.

I just watched the pilot! I haven't gone to sleep yet and I'm already having nightmares because I'm a weenie! Jolly good show!

The second one comes out tomorrow morning, and I'm looking forward to watching it with the polycule!

Big Time Rush should have had an episode where a gay fan assumes James is gay, because... you know. And he starts flirting with James and sending signals, and James obliviously returns the signals out of pure vanity. And Logan is trying to convince James that he's being flirted with, and James is like "no way, he's just a fan". But the fan thinks James is covertly telling him he's also interested, and he kisses James. And at first James is like "what the fuck dude. I'm straight". But then afterwards he starts thinking about that fan's kissable lips, and he tracks down the fan and kisses him back. And he's like "I don't know what this means" and the fan's like "Well I do, and I'm still attracted to you, but clearly you have some introspection to do before this could work", and then we never see the gay fan again and at the end of the episode when James is performing some generic straight love song with the others, we zoom in and see a tear roll down his cheek.

I learned the drums! And while overall it's been a great experience, there's one side effect I'm not entirely happy with. And it's absolutely unfair that nobody warned Me about it. Completely outrageous.

When listening to music on My headphones in public, I now find Myself compelled to air drum. It's like playing the air guitar, but drumsticks. I look insane. More insane than usual, I mean. People stare at Me.

But it was a pretty good song I played along to on My invisible drums.

In high school physics, I learned that the equation for energy from moving something is a factor of force and displacement. So if an object remains stationary, then no matter how much force is put into it, no energy is expended.

So how come if I hold a heavy box filled with dumbbells, I get tired? I'm obviously putting a lot of newtons into it to keep it from falling, but it's not moving. So how is the weight of the object causing Me to expend energy?

I prefer to keep registrations open on MULTIVERSE, because most people are lovely and I think they should be able to make an account and start posting right away. But that's got to change now, because of a bad apple that's threatening to spoil the bunch.

Owbid_Catob is a spammer. Their preferred content to spam is AI-generated child cannibalism content. I do not know why. But I do know the pattern of their account creation is to keep spinning up alts that post nothing but disturbing material, under a single name, until they very quickly get banned. And they have been taking advantage of MULTIVERSE's open registration for some time now. They tend to make their accounts at 22:00 UTC on Mondays.

So, now you need to fill out an application to make an account here. I and the rest of the staff team will get an email with your application. The questions are the same as on the Outside soulist discord server: What's your opinion on unreality, magic, and queer identity? Give anarcho-antirealist answers, and you get in.

Unfortunately, this will be slower than open registration and there will be periods where no admin can check your application. We apologise for the inconvenience. Until your application is accepted, you can still view posts and comments.

I'd like to thank @[email protected] and @[email protected] for messaging Me to let Me know about the new spam accounts so I could ban them.
