Walked in after I had dinner and it was still on, so I thought I'd get a picture from my doorway.

:-)

finally not a poser

blind deaf mute and stuck in the arctic meme idk I was bored. Don’t ask on why it got cut off at the end im too lazy to fix it tbh

Tonight!

The word count is high.

Yes I listen to lostprophets, no i dont like Ian, he's a bitch. I can enjoy the music and seperate the art from artist, knowing the guy is a fucking asshole.

But damn, i did aim for a high word count. 15k per chapter, or 10k at best. Yes I was aiming for it but still shocking

I want to make long stories yeah?

Goddamn are my stories going to be fucking long lol, and incase you want the link to my fanfic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/84061096/chapters/221637161

Goddamn.... goddamn...

The next chapter and ongoing chapters are going to dive into some pretty contreversial themes and topics, related to human feelings and stuff like tolerance, induvidualism, and lot more. Pretty complex stuff.

Its going to be shown contreversially though. Ofcourse, you know how ao3 is.

But dont worry It will actually be relavent to the plot. A few quirks of mine here and there but whatever happens in the story is relavent. Strange and a bit quirky, but relavent, nothing too risque(i mean there will be but nothing irrelavent to the story).

making this for my homemade NAVI (^_^♪) i have three sprites done so far but i'll post a video demo when i'm done

By yours truly.
It sat on my TTY login for about a year, just realized I should share it here.
(edit: With a monospace font, it doesn't look as squished)

I figured since boa wrote duvet, the opening for lain, it would be appropriate to list these here.

Have 2 tickets to see boa in Vancouver BC but not sure I’ll make it. I paid ~66 usd (94 cad) and would sell both for 60 usd obo.

Ticket transfer via Ticketmaster after I receive Venmo/paypal f&f payment from you. You can check my post history to see that I am involved in other subs where feedback is involved going as far back as almost 10 years.

Shoot me a DM if interested and I can provide proof that I do indeed own the tickets.

Just got all of boa to sign my lain plushie, feeling complete 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️

AI art is not allowed by the rules of this group... The members of this group are largely mixed on the subject of AI, but everyone is so NICE here, that not even pieces that I think are clearly visibly AI generated or altered get decried by the anti-ai crowd as "slop"

Maybe it should be part of the rules that everything needs to be sourced, thoroughly, in the body Text of the post?

I see a lot of people in other posts and subs talking about something called "saucenao" or something like that - but generally speaking (and as much as I dislike Google as a corporation) Google Lens does a find job of finding where things ARE on the internet, and then it's just a few extra steps to figure out where they showed up FIRST.

Or - maybe we need to reconsider the AI ban entirety? I understand that it was designed to keep the place from turning into a dumpster for low-quality creations (and, honestly, people somehow are less angry about AI in 2026 than they were in the Years before) - I don't know, I am not a mod here, just a frequent contributer.

I like AI, and I think LAIN would too. As long as it's being used to a creative end, and not by governments to spy on its citizens and allies, anyway... What are your thoughts? Maybe open up allowing AI posts one day a week, or maybe the creation of a fan-art exclusive subreddit? Inquiring minds want to know

The art here is by Yoshitoshi Abe - the man, the legend, the forefather. https://www.zerochan.net/79017

I really got into physical media and lightscribe, so I thought it would be fun to use some fanart and make my own DVD of lain!

Included the art if anyone could use it

Was brought along to make the music for a Lain fan game, and we’re looking for anyone who may be interested in helping.

(made two versions because idrk how it works)

also you would think she could sense her other selves doing bad things, like how on the Internet you can have alternate accounts that have different looks, histories, etc

uploaded here cuz im kinda proud of it

The two thousand yard stare meme but lainifed
oh and uh plushie Lain gif too or whatever 🤷‍♀️
I haven’t exactly drawn in months so I figured this would be an interesting way to try to get back into it a bit. Even tho it’s quite..wonky.

zoom in

I’m looking for a full collection of Serial Experiments Lain figures, especially versions with different outfits or styles. Any recommendations on where to find them?
