Down Again, Huh!?

You know what wasn't down? Fancaps dot net! Give it up for these folks so I can continue to shitpost through the downtime and my really bad bout of depression.

And now I will be insufferable about it! What can I say? I'm still using Mastodon. It's a requirement that I be a jerk about this sorta thing. (Bonus: do y'all know about Linux?)

Self-deprecation and tongue-in-cheekness aside, I did ask for more questions to answer. And this time I got a bunch!

From NoFlexZone

where's the beef?

Ever since I joined the polycule hivemind I wondered that same question.

(#ExplainingTheJoke: there are a lot of vegetarians and vegans in the polyam community, at least where I'm at. It's like being in community with different people exposes you to different types of living or something!)

Is that cheese?

Hell yes it is. We even found the good vegan cheese (the secret is cashew, but we're still working on a substitute for those with a nut allergy. We are optimistic).

Where dey at tho?

There's a really good vegan place where the vegan cheese is actually good.

why doesn't anyone read their emails?

It's usually because it's in a category of

• overwhelming
• "eh I'll do it later" and end up lying about it as they clear their 100 notifications on their phone (I do this a lot actually)
• everyone (including the polycule) is on Discord anyway who has time for email?

Guess who's back?

It's you, isn't it!? The fuck have you been?

From MajorLinux: What do you mean again?!

HAHA YEAH. (I got nothing.)

From SharksOnAPlane: which tetris piece looks like it would be the most delicious?

It's the square ones. They're all four corners and looking pretty tasty about it. It's the closest to a waffle I would probably get.

Now I want waffles.

Favorite Fediverse instance that feels like a warm hug to you when you spy on their local timeline? Or do you have an app that does this even?

Weirder.Earth I'm always happy to see. They welcomed me in when mastodon.lol decided to LOL off the Internet and I've had that feeling every since. It's just good vibes all around and they are just so cool.

I am currently app-less, unfortunately. I could never get the hang of Subway Tooter and now just prefer opening up instances in my browser.

Favorite public domain work, and why?

The Little Mermaid! I love the sea and the mythos about 'em. And the bonus where it's apparently a metaphor for Gay Yearning? Yea, sign me up; how fucking relatable.

I'm a sucker for Beings and Things Trying to Get Human. I don't know why that is.

What is your response to all the bloggers laughing about how #CloudFlare keeps going down? Me, I am laughing with glee but also sadness because nobody's getting it yet that actually CF sucks.

I'm joining in.

Favorite 90's movie trope even though all your friends hate it?

This and the next question I'll actually have to crowdsource; we're so all over the place with out tastes there's bound to be overlap. but we ain't got time right now

And yet I have been stuck on these two the past couple of hours. These will definitely require a revisit.

I guess... movies where the kids save the day. Doing kidstuff that'd make no damn sense. Honestly it was Jurassic Park 3's (?) only saving grace. The one where the kid starts doing gym stuff and the raptor was like "huh what" long enough to get gymkicked out a window. LOVE THAT SCENE.

And 5. Favorite anime trope that everyone in your circle hates? :)

At a guess (see above): pretentious sci-fi stuff that makes no damn sense. See also: filler episodes. Especially ones that drag on any background red tape government nonsense.

Probable Cause: The Ace. No one likes a perfect motherfucker.

I don't know. Truly. I'm guessing and I've a funny feeling that I'm guessing wrong!
