he's finally back on his bullshit
okay 2 things
first: a poll
if you're inside of and controlling a giant human fleshy robot that doesn't have any clothes on
are you naked
or are you not naked
VOTE WISELY
this is important
second and MORE importantly
i'm back on making music
i took a hiatus for a while since last year but
i'm tired of sitting around doing nothing
and i was bouncing around ideas anyway even if i couldn't do much with them for a while
anyway
a lyrical assassination is back
third album is here for streaming
i'm also gonna be performing at the atrium
4/7 at 7pm
be there
((The music announcement also comes with two images attached: the album cover art and a promo image, neither of which I am embedding into this post because embedding two images is just overkill.))

But. More importantly.
How....fleshy...?
no subject
what do you mean how fleshy
FULL fleshy
it's nothing BUT flesh
no subject
So I vote yes.
no subject
right answer
oh good, regain came in
It turns out that people can have an entirely prosthetic body.
Just the brain in a case, and the whole body is synthetic.
no subject
so you can just swap brains in and out of different bodies?
damn
did you have one of those or is this just a thing you know about
either way though that's not quite what's going on here
probably
it's more like
you've got a full person but the full person has a 50ft tall exoskeleton that's also a person
no subject
[And Togusa is going to make that seem very casual as if it's just a thing he doesn't know and not one of his biggest worries about how much he's going to change.]
Wait.
Exoskeleton. That is also a person.
And is also naked.
I am really sure I haven't seen this.
no subject
i guess your fancy cyberworld hasn't invented giant naked exoskeleton people
how advanced is it NOW
no subject
This is your fault, James, I am writing this down: "If we get calls of a 50-foot streaker, it is decidedly not normal, but it is supposed to be there, do not send out an officer in response. Thanks, Retrospec."
no subject
please don't tell me spiders get prosthetic tank bodies
because i might have to find a way to go there just so i can burn it all down
but more importantly
who the hell in the police department thinks 50 foot streakers are normal?
no subject
But they’re shaped like spiders with grappling lines so they’re way more mobile and can climb up the sides of buildings. And they can turn invisible.
And, well, we do, now. We see that, it doesn’t mean Retrospec has shifted reality, it’s just one of the users!
no subject
the turning invisible is just overkill
oh i get it
if the unenlightened masses don't think it's normal then the retrospec cops shouldn't act like it is either
how long do you think it's gonna take for everyone to get used to 50 foot nudists though
no subject
A few weeks? Some time? It's weird because some changes, people adjust immediately. Like the monsters, all my colleagues were immediately used to them appearing, and knew what to do to keep people safe from them.
no subject
we had to drive ours through the mud catching everyone's attention and fire in a 1 mile radius and we LIKED it
what
that's bs
we're the ones fighting the monsters but THEY get all the monster fighting knowledge??
next time make them write down a guide or something
no subject
Wait wait. "back in my day?" Okay, GRANDPA. Now I get it, that's why you dye your hair, you're hiding all the gray.
Will a cane be enough for your next birthday, or are you all the way to a walker yet?
no subject
forget grandpa i'm probably your great great grandpa
you don't know how easy you kids have it these days etc etc
i'm missing an arm not a leg
you can keep the cane until they take my hip
you get canes after hip surgery right
no subject
.....
But okay seriously do you remember driving a tank too because that would be awesome.
no subject
i already have one of those
it's called "holding my prosthetic arm with my right hand"
but nah i don't remember driving a tank
i fought against some but i don't think i drove any
i was always doing covert ops anyway
kind of hard to be covert when you're steamrolling everything in a tank
no subject
no subject
...but yeah okay that would've been pretty useful for some of the fights
being a normal guy in a superpower fight gets really old really fast
maybe the tank could've leveled the playing field a bit
