“Cringe culture is dead! Let people enjoy things” crowd when they have to defend Garten of Banban fans and not scenecore sparkledog furry art
The fuck does that even mean?
If you want a serious answer: garten of banban is a videogame that broadly follows five nights at Freddie’s style of evil corrupted fluffy things, and Markiplier etc. have played it (I think?).
Scenecore sparkledog furry art as a phrase is aggressively queer to the point of being a funny caricature.
The final piece of the puzzle is the rallying cry ‘cringe culture is dead’. It’s popular on places like tumblr etc. and is used to push back on the social pressure of cringe culture, that often affects people who are queer or nerds or furries etc.
So we have the joke: ‘tumblr-y people pushing back against cringe culture when they have to defend people who enjoy a piece of media that is (not AI) slop pushed out to jump on the FNAF trend.’
To clarify: I am in favour of letting people enjoy things.
Thanks for the explainer! I am also in favor of letting people enjoy things. I know that to most, I’m weird. Glass houses and all.
Me when both FNAF and furry art are some freaky kids’ stuff:
Probably a sex thing.
Haha…no, not really.
I’m not online enough to know either
I just moved and bought a cot to sleep on. With a yoga mat on it, it’s actually as comfortable as any bed I’ve ever slept on!
I’m considering keeping it long term, but I would like to have “company” over some day.
Keep it - you can either gift it to someone who needs it more down the road, or have an option if someone needs to crash who isn’t ‘company’. Also nice for camping if you’re into that and have room to bring it.
Haven’t used it a lot but my cot has come in clutch a couple of times.
Top picture oop only has a single room to.live in, and a cot to sleep on, and is asking for advice on making the most of it. And these comments, holy shit. Wasn’t expecting that level of classism on Lemmy. Especially 196.
Dunno, we all migrated to lemmy because we feel superior over Reddit
Honestly empty room is pretty easy. It’s the people that have a bunch of stuff that make people think “is this a serial killer or are they just weird?” thats hard. You can tell they really like their stuff and you have to convince them to tone it down for new people.
When my room has been this empty it’s usually because I just moved and couldn’t afford to move much or had to sell a bunch to afford the move. Just ask the people you’re close to (ones you’re leaving, ones you’ll stay in contact with, and new people you meet) if they can make you some type of art to make your room feel more inviting. You already have a pride flag, seeing your friends terrible drawings, 4am and high quotes, etc is all you really need to add to make at least an inviting wall. Furniture is definitely nice and encouraged, but if youre living like this you need to be reminded you’re not really alone, not necessarily stuff at first. But please at least get a used side table at some point so you’re not spilling food in bed lol, speaking from experience.
probably should go up against the wall in the corner (feet facing the viewer, head facing the AC unit)
Yeah, but then when the AC runs it’ll blow directly on you and you’ll be freezing!
I don’t think so, in the corner is less directly in the path of the flow of the AC unit, it’s more like it would be blowing to your left - which could still make you cold, but probably no worse than being directly in front of it like it is now
Ah, good point, I didn’t think about that, looking at it again that makes sense.
Good. I can toss my other blanket on top and get snuggled in.
All good until you don’t want to get out of bed in the morning because it’s freezing…
I have always wanted a programmable thermostat, so I can sleep to nice cool air, but wake up to almost uncomfortably hot, because that will force me to get out of bed and be something resembling human.
Instead I’m a burrito, all wrapped up and warm
I feel like the energy usage of cooling then heating would be crazy though… Perhaps a localized solution, like a space heater pointed at the bed on a timer or smart outlet, so you’re getting direct heat only in the morning, only in bed.
Oh, my rooms tend to get hot by themselves, so it’s less “cool it then heat it” and more “cool it, then stop cooling and let it warm up naturally around morning”
Except in winter, I guess. Then it’s just “don’t heat until morning”
Why wouldn’t I defend people enjoying Garten of Banban? It just looks like a standard mascot horror game, and there’s nothing inherently wrong with those. Unless the developers are as bigoted as the FNAF dev or the game has genuinely immoral content, I see no problem with it.
It’s of poor quality - although that’s a subjective take from someone who’s only seen other people’s gameplay.
Who cares? I don’t care if it’s camp or genuinely bad; so long as there’s isn’t anything really fucked up about it, why shouldn’t people enjoy it?
exactly, but people are mean,
then they are never gonna be free from cringe culture
who took a photo of my studio apartment?
Shit, maybe they are still there, hiding! Quick, do a thorough search!
I prefer SROs over studios, it’s nice to share some capital (fridge, stove, laundry, dishwasher, livingroom sofa) with neighbors.
I’d be a little concerned with the AC directly over the heater, but if that’s the only place it can go…
Its fine. Seeing as its a window ac unit there likely isn’t anywhere else to put it and its not like they’re going to have both running at once and the baseboards don’t often have a thermostat in them, its somewhere else so it should be fine to put the ac there
Put them both on full blast and see which one wins.

What gives you the impression that it smells? The person who lives in that room doesn’t appear to have very much money but I don’t see any indication that they have a problem with hygeine. Do you just assume that all poor people stink?
Also, why would you assume they don’t have any friends? Are poor people not worth spending time with?
I’ve lived in a similar shitty apartment. It smelled from the day I moved in.
I don’t know where you’re getting that I assume they don’t have any friends. I assumed that he didn’t want them to come over until he improved the place, which is an entirely different thing.
You should totally add a thing.
man I would actually go insane in OOPs room. Like at least get a carpet aaaah
Carpet?
Like where hair lives?
Are there people who actually live like this? I genuinely don’t understand…
You don’t always get a choice.
Fair, okay, my question is then, does anyone choose to live like this? And if so, why?
Some. Some folks are naturally kind of ascetic, others aren’t really but have difficulty justifying letting themselves have things. But most of the time the OP picture is a function of circumstances.
Yeah where’s the gaming/PC setup?
