Hello @Kingdom122 and welcome to AF! There's plenty of friendly people here, so I'm sure it'll be fun. I too hail from Canada (west coast born and raised, but I did have a brief stint in Alberta and Ontario). What's your favourite game, if you have one?

I do not! I need to find a hobby or a few for my downtime really. But I just got PSNow last night, so maybe I'll start playing more games as a hobby :3

Even PS2 games are almost retro haha. But it seems like a lot of new games (at least from my very brief glances anyway) seem to go for a bit of that retro feel, it's kinda cool! I just signed up for PSNow yesterday, they've got a deal for new subscribers that the first month is only 9.99. It's honestly a great option for me because my attention tends to jump all over the place and I can't really afford to be buying games all the time. So the 19.99/month subscrition for a bunch of different games is great for me. I played a bit of Guilty Gear and BlazBlue yesterday real quick, and I'll be exploring more into other stuff soon too (added a few games to my list). It feels like Netflix for games haha

That's fair! No haters here though, fortunately (also, that's not cool of them to be rude when they're the ones that asked the questions in the first place, some people eh?)

Thank you! I got it in November 2016, so only a couple years old

I don't play any rp stuff, but I've always preferred tabletop (eg. D&D) as opposed to online stuff

A very rare thing has occured, I'm actually watching something again. Decided to watch Hinamatsuri. It's fairly cute and really funny. Didn't think I'd like it at first, but it's grown on me very quick

I play Psychonauts every now and again

Hello and welcome! Don't worry, your post isn't wordy lol. People here, they like to talk a lot sometimes

I don't really have any hobbies. I do a fair amount of making, but that needs to be done anyway, so there's always time for it somewhere

I can't take a picture of my tattoo (I have a flip phone). But I did find an old picture (April 2017) that has it showing, so I just cropped it to show it

I have one tattoo and no piercings. Well, my ears are pierced (from when I was a kid), but I don't wear earrings (or any jewlery, really). I tend to stare at people with tattoos because I'm trying to look at what they have lol

Saratoga sounds really lovely (and she could be Sara for short, or Toga if she somehow ends up being a he after all) My brain first went to Artemis for some reason (before seeing Saratoga), though I couldn't tell you why

@Wet sure, I'll join! Colu#4199

That journal is great! Ah, I think I've heard the name Younique before!

I'm late to the party, but....how goes the writing?? Did you ever decide between the short story or your main novel, perhaps you've been toying with both?

Oh, that's awesome you're doing that! Years ago, my family and I used to look after a group of yard cats (as we called them). We used to have these neighbours who owned a cat and it turns out that she got pregnant. Rather than taking responibility for a pregnant cat, they abandoned her when they moved away. She took shelter under the shed in our yard. We didn't think much of it, and we didn't realize she was pregnant, it wasn't uncommon for cats to hang out in strangers' yards. We thought she belonged to our NEW neighbours, who happened to have a cat with similar markings. One day, she's lying far down the yard, basking in the sun, when she stands up and three kittens go running and playing all over the place, they had been sleeping on her and we couldn't see them when she was lying down lol. Soon, we realize this mum cat (and thus, her name became Mum Cat) was living in our yard. So we go over to the neighbours and ask them about their cat. Not only is their cat sitting on the stairs, theirs is a boy! It didn't take us long to realize the old neighbours had left her behind. The SPCA wouldn't come to get Mum Cat and her babies, unfortunately it's quite poorly run here. And we certainly weren't about to let them die. Unfortunately, Mum Cat, once a domesticated kitty, had turned a bit feral, and the babies were born feral. They wouldn't come to us, but we could feed them and make sure the birds didn't steal the food. Eventually they got comfortable with us. Being unfixed cats, and ourselves owning an unfixed, outdoor, male cat, you can easily deduce that the yard cat family...grew. Only one of the original three kittens survived the first winter and Felicks (our cat) had a tendency to chase off any other males. The only male cat he didn't chase off was the only one that lived out of the first litter, who we started to call Oscar. Years went by, and by the end of it all, we were looking after around 21 wild cats (NO ONE had rat problems in our neighbourhood lmao). At this point, Felicks and Oscar are starting to get quite up there in years, but they still look after the family. We had been consistently trying the entire time to get the SPCA to come help us. Sadly, what made the SPCA finally come, and what Oscar and Felicks couldn't protect the family from, was poison. Six of the cats were found dead due to someone leaving poison out for them. One of those cats was found by one of our neighbours' little girls, she was like...4 years old. We made sure Felicks stayed inside for a few days so he wouldn't get caught up with the rest of the cats, and the SPCA came and did their thing. The managed to catch all but one of the cats, Oscar. Oscar was gone, he just vanished. Living in an area with coyotes and cougars (and bears, but they don't bother kitties), we assumed the worst. Fortunately, almost all of the cats captured were able to be domesticated and all but two of them found new homes. The two that couldn't be domesticated got sent to a cat sanctuary for wild cats, so they could live outside and be comfortable. And then a few months after it all happened, we see a cat lounging in the yard, it's none other than Oscar himself. He ran away when the SPCA came, and then came back when he felt it was safe. He remained with us (albeit in the yard) for several years afterwards. Sorry for the super long comment! I'm just very fond of all those cats. Felicks has been gone for years now, and Oscar we can only hope the best for him (we weren't able to capture him and take him with us when we moved out of town, so we let the SPCA know what's up and hopefully he found a good home). And then our indoor cat (who lives with mum), Mollie, she'll be 17 in March (all skin and bones and a little senile, but it's looking like she'll live for another ten years. That's a siamese for you) Aaaaanyway, I think it's awesome you've taken that kitten in

what's the server about, or just general?

ground chicken mixed with rice and veggies

I'm a cook at a lunch restaurant. It's what was available, pays the bills.

I like blurays, but I generally use streaming sites

Oh yeah, I never noticed the dots at all until now lol. I'm profoundly unobservant though

I bought frozen berries for smoothies and eggs for egg salad! (I'm on a soft food diet at the moment)

I always find the summer sale (or any other steam sale, for that matter) to be very overwhelming. I'm not a very big gamer though, so it ends up turning into, "what's this?" "ooh, this looks pretty!" "Hey, what was that?" and my brain just gets fried

I was going to chime in, but anything I'd have to say about it has already been said. Yes, I've seen Discord servers result in lower acitivity on forums, but usually those forums were already very low in activity to begin with. So, I don't agree that Discord "kills forums" or whatever. They both satisfy different needs. I spent about equal time on both Discord and forums, which isn't much at all lol
