I don’t know who writes it, and I wouldn’t exactly call it a masterpiece (though to be fair, I am reading translations,) but it is a fun premise. I started reading it because it’s one of the few sources of official Hatsune Miku lore (though ultimately everything is canon,) but the stories focus more on the human characters, with the vocaloids mostly just being there to support. Still, the stories can be compelling.
At this point, half the reason I’m still reading is for the human characters, and the other half is to find details on the premise, such as how it works with thermodynamics, whether the cafe world has an economy, how biological the vocaloids are (do they need to eat?), and how long it’s going to be before anyone finds out that their bestie/sibling/trainer/etc has their own virtual world too (they don’t do a great job of keeping it secret, but they also don’t do a great job of investigating.)
It makes the comment section more interesting : )
Context made me think it was going to be a pelican trying to eat a baby. But no, that was a fun watch.
Yes. The power to do literally anything would allow one to do this.
I’ve been reading stories from the Hatsune Miku rhythm game app, that almost straddles the line between urban fantasy and unexplained sci-fi. The premise is that instances of the vocaloids live in personalized virtual worlds for different (small) groups of humans. The humans can teleport to these worlds by playing a special song on their phone, or the vocaloids can project themselves as holograms from the humans’ phones. It’s almost sci-fi because it mostly works within constraints of technology. For example, you get booted out of the virtual world if your phone runs out of battery, and if your phone gets shorted out, it can prevent the vocaloids from projecting themselves until the phone is repaired (though if the phone still works otherwise, they can voice chat.) Also the special song can be transferred to different machines and still works. But then what makes it more fantasy is that the song and worlds are created from the humans’ feelings (and if they lose the song, a new copy will appear for them,) and it works without internet connection (if one member of a group is stranded and another isn’t, they could have a vocaloid relay a message.) And then just recently I read a chapter where some characters were able to access their virtual world through their dreams, without needing the song file in the first place. For me, that’s what completely tipped the scale into urban fantasy.

Even so, having full details on every single thing a political figure does isn’t going to make that much of a difference in how effectively you can persuade people. If someone isn’t persuaded by Trump’s 34 felonies, telling them that his lawyers are saying “one thing at a time please” isn’t going to give you an edge in the conversation.
Also, you need to be mindful of where you’re making your efforts. If you’re a lefty, posting lefty stuff on Lemmy isn’t going to do all that much. When was the last time you saw a conservative community on Lemmy? You’d be preaching to the choir.
Well, if you have a bad comment that’s going to get heavily downvoted, it’s funny to see that not even you upvoted yourself. Like “yeah, even I think my opinion here stinks.”
Am I going insane or did you remove your self-upvote?
Strange. I think colons are the official way (as I’m just on default web lemm.ee,) so that might be something to contact your client’s devs with.
FYI, spoilers don’t work like Reddit (or at least not on my web client.) Try doing it the way Limfjorden did:

Reaching that second field of hogs under the conversation felt kind of ominous.
I’ve seen this one before, but the alt text had me in a (silent) laughing fit anyways.
I agree with you, but I’m obligated to downvote.
What’s this about Mojang?
Guns have really improved since the year 131.
Wha…? Why would they…? Was there something else in the bill that they didn’t like?
