This apparently doesn't include time spent on SC, WC3, WoW beta, etc.

I finally finished the relic. That's a *lot* of content to retread. I haven't even touched Hildi or Occult yet, because I had plans last weekend and plans this weekend, including needing to prep for Daggerheart. I guess I'll do Occult some next week! #ffxiv

Finished all of the CE tools. Experimented a little with masteries after. Interesting way to farm booklets. Got a lot of things just naturally doing fortunes this time. Now to wait for 7.55 and 7.56. #ffxiv

Hadn't seen the Sharks win in person since before the pandemic! To be fair, I wasn't exactly in a condition to see them until last year post-treatment.

What's your favorite revenge movie? The Coens' version of True Grit (2010). Fuck the John Wayne version.

Hailee Stenfeld, Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon, and Josh Brolin lined up as their characters in the Coen brothers' version of True Grit.

This is the first time in years I have fully celebrated Halloween. I watched the new Frankenstein, assembled a costume, and went to two parties. If you are wondering how I am posting after my gommage, well...

Related, I found this weird take that includes shade towards Brennan. I did have to dig deep into the comments and it has 0 upvotes, however. Just yikes! Some people in fandoms just need to grab a favorite beverage and relaaaax!

Screenshot of the following comment:

I agree with this because the weight of an official campaign that involves the original CR cast will influence hard-core and casual fans regarding setting and this is a world BLM is developing where viewers who are skeptical of his DM style compared to Matt's would be a negative effect on daggerheart as well.

One more relic to go! Should be done by tomorrow! I'd say then I can rest, but both the CE tools and combat relics have their next steps coming in less than a month in 7.31. #ffxiv

To give you a better idea of what I mean, this is what Endwalker looked like. And it was much later in its cycle for the capstone. Soooo... It all gets a big ol' shrug from me!

Wasn't expecting this on my way home. Same lot that has been vacant forever because the original building... caught fire and then sat burned out for years.

I pared it down to 3 pages (2 double-sided), of which I'll only need the last page regularly. #Daggerheart It's a more detailed than the LE's GM screen, but putting the dice in a table makes it easy to just pick up dice and roll. Eventually this should be intuitive. Now to pare down the players'.

I haven't been as active on Bluesky as I had been. There are two reasons for that: 1. My dad had to have his kidney removed, and his recovery meant doing more than I could handle. Especially because: 2. This "Big Guy" had been sick for weeks and we lost him this morning:

Jenova got the launchpad done earlier. I also got the cosmosuit, glasses and mount. The tools seem like a ton of work. I'm not sure I'm up for theorycraft and overmelding when 7.3 should have new gearsets. I may just try to limp through them if possible. #ffxiv #dawntrail

My WoL wears shades indoors apparently. (He's sitting at a table in one of the habitation tubes. A coffee sits on the table. A sealed pack of freeze-dried something sits next to him.)

Deleted my thread about it, but re: Apple Cider Vinegar. TL;DR: I hated it.

I finished it and I hated it.

The medical experts are cold and blunt. And who the fuck gets to sit with every single one of their specialists in a giant boardroom? Even their physical therapist????? lol

It does not highlight the victims enough, as well. Lucy is supposed to be a main character seemingly, but she's gone for whole episodes while the two snake oil saleswomen that are the type victimizing her are front and center.

It shows just one legitimate brain cancer patient: Hunter, who is based on the real-life Joshy Schwarz. And they don't do much to give him or his mom time in the story. And don't get me started about how the show does nothing to shed awareness on brain tumors or cancer. The only thing realistic is Hunter's seizure and his mom's reaction to it. But that's it.

I think the other thing it does poorly (read: doesn't do) is when and how people can make legitimate decisions about stopping or deciding not to seek treatment. (E.g. the extreme risk of paralysis... losing the ability to do something their life centers around... etc.) Lucy kiiiind of goes down that road, but still does so seeking a kind of alternative treatment that is depicted as having worked by having her hallucinate her death (rather grotesquely, yikes).

As for Belle, it does clearly depict her as a villain, but they lend her more sympathy than she deserves.

I'm sure the general public will eat this up. And they'll come away from it knowing Belle is a shitty person. And that people like Milla out there really don't know shit medically and can hurt even her own family by hawking bullshit like coffee enemas.

Anyway, I do not recommend it. The only thing I gained coming away from it is: don't make cautionary tales about cults of personality too long, don't make the shitty personalities too much of the focus, do better to highlight experts in a beneficial and positive way, show more of the victims and pay respect to them, etc.

Day 23 Best housing area? Limsa. It reminds me of Santa Monica and other shores in the LA area, but without the environtmental damage and hazards. Because, you know, it's a video game.

Day 30 My favorite game overall is #Baldur'sGate3. Hands down. It encapsulates the #TTRPG experience perfectly, while also improving on some 5e things. It has some of the most compelling companions in RPG history. The writing and voice acting is stellar. Its community is fantastic.
