Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.54.0] [Selebus]

[CharlotteWiltshire26]

Dude, i can't even follow this post cause you're so deep down in the cerebral sauce you've reached that ephemeral realm where words start to become so hazy in their meanings you can't get a grip on them... wtf are you even arguing down here? Nothing is this deep and there basically no way to connect with other people through this realm, it's practically quantum in its ruleset, uncertainty is so high from one person to the next that no one has any clue where anyone else is or is going... i think it's time you take a few steps back and ground yourself before attitudes towards you start to shift into "eeugh, it's that guy again...".

That is a fair criticism: I’m sorry for annoying you. I *know* that I’m likely coming off extremely strong and only try to limit my posts to when actually I have something productive to say that others would probably find interesting, but… sometimes autism prevails, sadly.

I’ll follow your advice and probably take a small break from posting until the end of the month (the main thing I wanted to express is done, anyway), and we’ll see what the future will bring. Hopefully, I’ll get better at containing myself with time.

As a fellow autist, i totally understand what you were doing and why, but you can't force understanding like that, the deeper you go, the more uncertainty increases, until you reach a point where people don't even understand what you're trying to say within a sentence, let alone your overarching point... the mental load required to parse your words outstrips anyone's interest and they just feel taxed out. Einstein said something i took to heart, if you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough... there's no rush, so if you find yourself banging your head on a brickwall, cut your losses and try to learn from it both in your own arguments and how you lost people along the way... or just do what i do and don't ever try to go that deep again, forest for the trees.

Curious game. That's all I can say after playing for few evenings and skimming through sixty thousand comments in terim.
My last two brain cells have departed to buy milk from the gas station.
Merry fuckmas.

I welcome the mental stress of extrapolating and interpreting ins and outs of the story. Emphasis on the vibrant community. Meaning you.

This is quite depressing to write just after Christmas, but it'd be worse not to. I think there's merit to what Bingoogus is saying - though I won't put it in the same way (since he's also able to point out things that I simply can't). I just don't think you need to stop posting either, as you've always been extremely polite and I find your posts interesting. To me, it's more of a question of to whom you're trying to connect with.

It's definitely not my place to tell you what's right and wrong, you write whatever you wish - maybe you do know no one's going to agree with you, but you want to put it out there. That's up to you. But, were I in your position, I'd feel a bit uncomfortable by now. If you're fine with this, then, yes, it's likely to go towards what Bingoogus described - because most people will stop reading for the reasons he described. If not, maybe you can rethink what you're trying to communicate so that it reaches people the way you want it to.

Merry late christmas everyone, and I am halfway through the latest update. I just want to say, Chika is annoying me. Even on her redemption arc thing she is annoying me...like I really could not care for the lesbo drama involving her. That said, Nodoka is the opposite...I am liking her more and more. Quite an intriguing character

*take a sip of whiskey*

LiL... LiL never changes...

Whatever how you feel about it, whatever what you feel within it... whatever how you ring with its inhabitant... you'll never completely understand it, nor rationalize it.
This is not a story about a broken man grooming children, neither a story about a child groomed by its sister-in-law.

This is a testament of a dying, cursed, mind. An own-made therapy for the author.

Understanding LiL, its reaching the within wall of that mind.
Lots seek it, none return.

*finish the drink*

Ahh... what was I saying? Oh, yeah, did anyone know the release date of the next update? Nobody answer me... and I still doubt that it will be january 1st.

...

What?

For what its worth, I followed it just fine. You're self-admittedly being more open than usual and this all tracks with all that. There's a type of leap someone can take when being open that leads to trying to be as clear as possible with what you're thinking and feeling.

I can see how others can and are finding it to be a bit much - but I don't, and I get it, and I'm personally deriving a lot of value from what you're saying.

Thank you once again for your detailed thoughts. I already clarified some of my original goals/intentions in my reply to SlidingSubject (which you seemingly disagreed with, but that's okay), so I won’t repeat them here. Aside from that, I mostly agree with all of your counterarguments, and the few ones I *do* fundamentally disagree with are worded in a way where I can still fully understand where you’re coming from (which means that it’s all good). So the only real point that still needs clarification is why I decided to specifically focus on Akira – when, as we both pointed out, LiL is so much bigger than just him:

Spoiler: Why the central focus on Sensei?

I think Miku is Sel's outlet to tap into different fetishes. We have feet and a friction jobs from Miku. Next it might be bellybutton and thigh armpit jobs.

I just wake up, but I wanna share something.
I had a dream I was Akira (i can finish the message here, since it's already bad enough). For some reason I was living like a fucking hobo, but then I got a spine and return back to the home and, oh my god, my eyes hurt so fucking bad from the slightest lighting, yet I didn't care about this and just laid on a bed... Asking myself why the fuck I even took a big blue barrel (from Half Life assets) with me to my bedroom, while I start feeling that it was Ami's multi-move mindgame to make me return home...
And then I wake up IRL at 5 AM and decided to sleep again.

This is a weird dream, yeah. But the next dream was about Hotline Miami style game during Christmas.

4/10 not enough sex.

4/10 not enough sex.

What if... Barrel full of Sensei's cum that Ami was saving for years

 

[Bingoogus]

4/10 not enough sex.

Don't think sex really comes into LiL dreams, recall mine about Sana being afflicted with extreme horny fever and me having to guard her to stop strange men taking advantage of her in that state? Why the fuck wasn't i one of them!? Literally had my meat toilet in my arms, begging for dick... and instead i shielded her from outside threats? The fuck!?

There's a big softie underneath this degenerate...

Selebus forwarded me some scenes he cut for being too spoilery. Enjoy:

Perhaps you wish to protect the meat toilet instead of raw dog it. Maybe you and Sugoognib are more alike than you think.

The fuck!?
