Thank you shadowbroker for the awesome background and sidebar image!
my friend keeps posting their periodical spectacular culinary failures on twitter because they’re such a bad cook it’s actually comical but i think this one is the all-timer
it’s like literally actually some kind of condition they have
I like when people like a character so way too much that it transcends even self shipping or kinning and becomes more of a patron saint that you pray to type of deal
im sorry but when you grow up and interact with people irl youre gonna have friends where you dont fw their tastes. sometimes youre gonna meet someone chill whos also a hazbin hotel fan or have a really nice coworker that likes taylor swift and youre gonna need to mind your business and shut the fuck up or youre gonna be real lonely
Someone wanna provide context for the non-SDV people?
Saw this in the notes and figured I’d step in!
So, for non-SDV players, in most farming sims you can get married to certain characters and have children with them, however this is typically a permanent choice that can’t be undone, so if you want to marry someone else or not have kids you would have to start over with a fresh save.
But SDV is different. The game has a witch’s hut you can eventually unlock that lets you use…black magic, basically, to soft-reset marriage/children choices without starting over. There’s a divorce option so you can ditch your spouse, but that’s the only normal one. It also adds an option to turn your children into doves to get rid of them, hence OP saying they “birded” their kids. You’re not…technically killing them…but only barely.
(It also adds an option to mind-wipe your previous spouse so they don’t remember being married to you and thus don’t hate you, and you can even remarry them then if you want, but I don’t think that was needed for this, just figured it was sinister enough to warrant a mention.)
All that to say, the reddit OP married a character, progressed to the point that they had a child with them, and then used black magic to “kill” the child and divorce their spouse before moving on to the next marriage candidate and doing the same, over and over until they had gone through all twelve marriage candidates, resulting in a collection of twelve “dead” children.
Which, I must agree, is some uniquely unhinged behavior indeed.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
Okay, but who is joja
Joja is essentially Walmart. You can either try to revitalize the town by going the community route and help local businesses and people thrive or you can sell the town to Jojacorp who will put the locals out of business and sell you way cheaper and shittier stuff

“Progress Shark” outside the Australian Museum, ahead of Sydney Mardi Gras/World Pride Festival 2023.
More flags should be inflatable sharks
Ok this is making me go insane because. that’s a photoshop. it absolutely is, someone’s edited a progress pride flag onto the shark.
you can see spots where the red is misaligned with the top of the body and even extends slightly beyond it. the lines of the flag don’t conform to the shape of the shark’s body at all. you can see the gills through it as if it’s at like 70% opacity.
but like. the progress pride shark is real and it looks like this:
yknow. cause it’s a flag wrapped around a model shark.
why was this edited????? it’s a real thing but for some reason someone edited a digital flag over it instead of just using a real photo of the real thing??? why????
they should invent an existence where the sweetest, most thoughtful people you’ve ever met don’t suffer an endless series of indignities and injuries at the hands of gormless, self-obsessed monsters
anyone remember what these things are called like little cartoony expressive doohickies i think they have a real name but i can’t remember
im not fucking crazy.
if i have one more person say sparkles on this post im gonna blow i swear to god
They’re squeans I’m pretty sure! If they pop like that anyway. But the term for this kind of “symbol to refer to the general vibe of something in art” is called “Emanata” because it emanates from a person or object.
