Cactus Codex

*blep*

Okay full disclosure I’m not completely a video game virgin. I just haven’t gotten into a lot of the stuff that people and my friends talk about all the time, which becomes horribly frustrating when everyone is talking about a game because I start feeling like an idiot or some inanimate wall.

Also I’ve never been heavily exposed to games as a kid. I was also taught that games waste time and are unhealthy and blah blah blah and I shouldn’t care for them and I guess I never really let that go.  So I lack that nostalgia element that’s apparently important.

Bottom line is, I never fully appreciated games and it’s really hard to get into them now that I’m closing in on 19 years. Aside for a few exceptions (Super Mario Galaxy, GTA IV, Portal 2, to be exact), it can be said that I’ve never played a game like one should.

It’s not that Inkscape becomes unresponsive and freezes whenever I’m working on images because of performance issues. It just doesn’t want to recognize my mouse input consistently.

I try to move a shape with the Select tool but it doesn’t even want to select the shape to start with. Funnily enough, if I click and drag, it forms a selecting area. So Inkscape is recognizing that input. But if I try to move a selected shape by clicking and dragging, it doesn’t move. Instead, a new selecting area is made and I throw a fit.

I go to click something on any one of the toolbars and it doesn’t register unless I mash on some keyboard buttons or bring another window up and return back. The menu bar is the only thing I can actually click on that registers. Every other button and object (including the scroll bars) refuse to cooperate.

And this all starts even with a new and blank file.

I don’t even know how to respond to this…

Thank you u2u

Probably genes. My dad comes from a short family, and Peruvians in general are pretty dang short on average (5′ 4.5″ or 164 cm). I haven’t grown an inch since sophomore year in high school. ; 2;

So I’m not a saguaro. I’m more like those little potted cactus you buy at a nursery or something.

Relax, Anon. :v

I’m not super serious about my ships. Mostly because come on they’re obviously just for fun.

Absolutely.

But that’s just how it works, I guess. What one person sees and reads out of a story can be quite different than what someone else sees. And whatever they think is fine with me as long as they can enjoy it somewhat.

Ahhh I love this question. Mainly because the answer is terrible.

I attribute it to writing evolution. I made the first PC comic as an in-joke between me and a friend and the Sweetie I used there became the base of what she’d become later. My intention was for her to be an inverted and exaggerated form of her canon self.

Back then, the assumption was that Sweetie was airheaded and naive. So I made her more clever and uh, a bit more, suggestive? Deviant, maybe?

After the Desert Sub-arc, I started opting for a harsher Sweetie. Direct and definitely not her bubbly self, essentially. The show progressed as well and I grabbed some of canon Sweetie’s new traits, like her manipulations and always having some sort of plan.

The result is what you see here.

Here’s the terrible part. As for the in-story reason, that’s kinda protected at the moment. I’m saving that for a flashback scene in some time.

Whoops. The theme author pushed an update that kinda broke that function. But it’s fixed now! Thanks for the heads up.

Right right, gotcha.

Wow I’m not sad anymore, it worked! Thank you very fucking much, Sir Anon.

Moving on :V

I can dig it.

Very yes.

I thought so. But I don’t know why I’m so intrigued.
