probably no one else finds this funny and I’m driving away my friends a fraction of a percent at a time every time I do it, but I think the height of comedy is when you react to an emoji with the same emoji in a chat medium that permits this

Be careful when you venture into the depths, Marwind. There are things there that you should... avoid. L̴͓̂i̴̙̐k̵͕͐ė̵͉ ̸̫͛M̴̑̾e̵̓

Ahem! Nothing like waking up thinking, ya know what? Bard who fascinates eldritch monsters! Or...did they fascinate him? XD I shuffled some concepts around Marwind's story... it's still in script phase but I made some good progerss. Anyhowsies, really proud of this one! I feel like I leveled up my coloring game :D!!

Thank you for stopping by!

playing ffxiv normally and playing ffxiv with a WoLship in mind are TWO DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES and one will ruin your life forever

was waiting for FATEs in the steppe to level red mage, talked to magnai on a whim - was unaware that after you complete endwalker he asks you if there were any Hot Chicks on the Moon

it's genuinely bullshit that you should be required to own a mobile phone for participation in literally any aspect of life

phones love to go "do you want to clear up .3 GB by deleting these cherished pictures that you havent looked at in more than 30 days?" while also installing random apps and AI bullshit you didnt ask for. and you cant even uninstall half the apps

obviously magical friendly fire is more canon-compliant and suited to how magic is portrayed by the worldbuilding but a) i am not going to turn that setting on because i love myself and b) i think stuff like having your mage summon a roaring wall of fire and trusting in their skill and their control so deeply that you charge through it knowing the flames won’t hurt you even as they lick over your exposed skin is just too sexy to miss out on

More lady dwarves!

What's everyone's LEAST favorite area in FFXIV?

For me it's the Sylphlands

I have no grander ambitions in life I simply want to live with people I love, play videod Game, and sink my teeth into all the kinds of eatery on this earth

good lord WHAT is your job?

I'm a software engineer for Microsoft. Which is a job I DID honestly enjoy quite a lot until whatever the hell's been going on lately.

Like imagine you're an architect and you get pulled in to help build a house. And it's a pretty well-engineered house! You can recognize and appreciate this and contribute the same standard of quality.

Until the guy who controls all the money shows up one day and says houses are NO good anymore. People want a BOX for the AI to live in. And actually start tearing down walls and ripping out the electrical and plumbing because the AI doesn't work with all that. Just make it a BOX for the AI.

So you do what they say and rip out things you're proud of and smash holes to drag all the AI through. But the AI is constantly changing and no one knows who you should ask to understand the shape the house needs to be to fit the AI. And the people who do know are probably too busy getting their necks breathed down by members of leadership who are paid millions a year to tell you to just do whatever ChatGPT does. So your team gets dicked around with unclear instructions given with absolute urgency. Also every 6 months they lay off 3% of the company so you walk in one day and Bob who's worked here for 25 years is just gone.

Also the AI is supposed to get good enough at building houses to replace your job. Maybe. It doesn't actually do that but the guy who controls all the money is hinging all that money on convincing other people that's true.

I miss house.

i always thought it was silly that people would get so pedantic & heated over the idea of fantasy novels using words derived from real locations like "champagne" or "lesbian" or whatever. "a fantasy setting cant have words that are dependent on real-world context" i have bad news for you about all words
