That was my main reason for not vibing with SGU until the very end. As its own series it would actually have been nice, but as a Stargate series it sucked.

Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊

A split image of the Duke of Wellington statue in Glasgow, Scotland, featuring a new intervention by street artist The Rebel Bear. On the left, the full equestrian statue is shown outside the Gallery of Modern Art, with a sculpted oversized pigeon perched on the Duke’s head, holding a folded newspaper in its wings. On the right, a close-up reveals the pigeon wearing a tiny traffic cone while reading a miniature β€œDaily Dribble” paper, replacing the statue’s famous full-sized cone. The playful artwork adds a humorous twist to the iconic landmark.

The Duke of Wellington’s traffic cone has now been swapped for a pigeon sculpture, complete with a mini cone on its head and a little newspaper in its wings. πŸ¦πŸ“°

A'chago, a miqo'te with a mane of black hair held back by a white headband, sits across from him with a drink of his own and says, "What!? No way!"

I actually like variant dungeons as semi-challenging content you can do solo, it's a pity there's not much incentive to do them besides the collectibles. Like, I get that they're side content and you don't do them for tomestones, but 15 poetics is... kinda insulting?

Here it's usually paper for to-go and mugs if you drink in. Some cities in Europe are even trying to wholly get rid of disposables (which I think is about as useful as getting rid of plastic straws, but still).

Some of it is actually in the fanfics, some of it is on gdocs, some on scattered social media posts, and some only in my head. To sum it up: "badly".

Some people use content warnings as "spoiler tags", even if it's abusing the system a little, for lack of a better alternative.

You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourselfπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.
Your soul is beautiful.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

The game needs to get over its time bubble fetish and let Hien, Lyse, Raubahn, Runar, Cid, Nero, and everyone stuck in the sidequest limbo get relevant again. Oh, and Alisaie and Alphinaud need to grow and Ali needs to get her fucking PhD and a nobel for undoing tempering.

Caranraw has some body hair and a bit more fat than the in-game model, but aside from that he's pretty much like he appears in-game.
