"WHM is the greatest mule job of all time"
Imo
Was saying it as a quote for Jessi to say to their friend though. Convince person that WHM is good, so they tag along as your personal healer.
Not that I can say much, I'm perma Richybard for life lol

Convince person that WHM is good, so they tag along as your personal healer. Coincidentally, that same person was suggesting I play White Mage in XIV, based on how I said I liked the player urgency and emergent gameplay in XI. Which is true. In fact, I was planning on going for either Paladin or White Mage in that game for that reason.
They were asking me if Monk was in XI, as that's their main in XIV. But for someone coming from XIV, I'm not sure that's what I'd suggest given how few buttons a player presses. Even I got bored playing that job. I'm almost thinking something like Dancer has a bit more of an ongoing sequence of buttons to mash to better ease someone from one game to the other.

Honestly, I'd suggest him RDM or BLU. Picking XI back up, those jobs feel far more active to me, especially RDM because you have to apply all the debuffs while also fighting and such.
They would also give them an opportunity to learn the systems of XI that XIV dropped, like elemental absorptions, true debuffs and resistances, physical damage types etc.
My prediction is they come down with hurting brain a couple dozen hours in and give up the ghost, but I am hoping I am wrong and they enjoy it and enjoy playing with you!

This also isn't the first time they've told me they were going to try XI. I'm mostly expecting it to not happen. A big part of me hopes it doesn't.

Anything but GEO lol. While that is probably the easiest job to help out on, its the most boring if you aren't optimized.

I got to hit up this bomb *** taco truck today for lunch.
I only mention it to *** about cheese lol. There's nothing I hate more than taking something objectively delicious, and covering it in cheedar or american cheese. Abomination.
This joint had a 4 cheese blend (moz gouda fetta and I forgot), but you always have to ask which cheese is "cheese" for fear of that yellow horseshit they claim is "cheese".
Also, it's like a hundred outside.
Quote: Excessive Heat Warning in Michigan today; will feel like 105 degrees
It's rare that it's not over 100° here in AZ lately. But I grew up in the Midwest, so I know how much harder that 100° hits when paired with humidity.

I would assume so, yes. Three was what I was expecting, though. If you cut what remains in half, what is the natural endpoint for game 2? Some are saying the Disc 1 ending, but it might make more sense to end off at the part where the Black Materia is handed off in the Northern Crater.

Yesterday I pratically didnt win any match against IA in AoM...
My default strategy of focusing 75% of the play in gathering resources leaving the defense mostly for the buildings was not good enough when the IA was smart enough to redirect its troops to enter the gaps of it and go straight to the villagers, interrupting my production while I move my army to the front. And unfortunelly, the fight happens right over my plantation whats terrible to me...
I guess my greatest weakness is my prejudice with fighting with humans. Instead, I favor myth units, mainly the colossus. But they just becomes available later in the play, opening a huge gap in my army which is where i need to improve: I need to fight against my prejudice and focus in training some so so human army to enforce my defense till I reach my last stage.
Also, I need to stop trusting too much in my building defenses. Ive been too arrogant thinking IA wouldnt target my defense's gaps but they are doing it. When I dont have the geography advantage, i need to build more walls or place my villagers covered by my army.
Finally, I need to be more proactive while gathering resources. Ive been resisting too much the idea of attacking first during my gathering phase, but I wont win consistantly if I just leave my opponent alone during the play. I need to attack despite my focus being in growing.
I guess its like they say: live by the sword, die by the sword. If the IA likes to target my villagers, I guess I will need to hurt its villagers when I can...

You may wonder: wtf hes writing so much when he isnt talking to anyone in particular?
Well, good question but I feel like typing some situation like trying to communicate to someone else helps to better describe some thing that need to be better comprehended. I could just make notes in my notebook but then I wouldnt make an effort to improve the communication, afterall, its for myself. Also, I could just save it in my memory but thats the lowest effective method because its generally ignored by the brain.
Also, there is a conspiracy theory that tells about a "collective mind". That is, if a group starts to developing something somewhere, by "mental waves", another distant group, despite not being verbally communicating about a particular circunstantion, grasp that thought. It isnt a proper communication over air but feels like people becomes more open to learning something.
Its bizarre but the point is, I think there is a communication between species to happen over the human normal channels of speaking and writing/drawing, etc.

The Prequel can still be interesting since it draws from existing characters and events. A Sequel gives them an opportunity to "be creative", and we've already seen the results of that.
Prequel could've been during a much cooler point in history though, like during the conquest of Westoros or the fall of the dragon riders. Seeing Balerion razing entire cities in what is now Dorne would be pretty epic.

So netflix's new movie spiderhead. Kinda blackmirrorsy. Pretty good.
For netflix, anyway. It really has that netflix original "feel". You know, that kinda blah but not in a bad way. Like trying to be just slightly entertaining enough.
(Prisoner experiments, future tech etc, definitely black mirror like)

They'll just exchange insults with the other prisoners and then kill even more people when they get out. Instead, they should be rehabilitated. Teach them useful life skills - like how not to write horrible things ending in rolling laughter emojis.

Angered people is something really frightening…
Because the self control isn’t actually a common thing. Quite the opposite. People just can use a social mask more easily when they aren’t pressured.
But once the anger starts kicking, that mask simply ruins, and the ugly human-demon face appears. The face that represent the violence, the cursing, the will to destruct.

Mind blowing...
I just now discovered Wile E. Coyote and Ralph Wolf arent the same person(?)!
Plot twist!
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
