I don't know what I hate more: how prevalent Cunningham's Law is in this day and age of misinformation, or how effective it is for engagement farming.

It's two sides of the same coin, honestly.

It has been almost 4 years since #Endwalker came out and I still cannot listen to the #FFXIV version of Welcome to Our Town without welling up.

So I've read that for #TalesofXillia Remastered, they're adding changes to the game to improve QOL.

Having played the original, the only change I'm interested in is them making Jude less of a bitch boy simp for Milla.

Also less utterances of "GO TEEPO!"

So I've just learned there's an actor called Tom Hollander.

Does this mean there exists, somewhere in the world, a Tom Hollandest?

By doing things this way, you'd be growing the sport in your area and potentially allowing for youth development to thrive. Plus it would prevent one club from gaining an advantage in their respective pyramid.

Now I'm not saying that you're stuck to the small club round the corner. If you're born in London, you can play for ANY London team. But only within a certain radius.

But you can also declare for another club if your parents hail from there.

I'm gonna say something controversial here.

You know how football (soccer), once players declare for a nation, they're fixed to that nation until they retire?

I think club football should work the same way.

Post a PERFECT album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana or Pearl Jam

I had this on Cassette! The Theatre and Yesterday When I Was Mad are my jams!!

One of the best decisions I ever made for my own mental wellbeing is deleting Facebook and Twitter from my phone.

I still have my accounts, but because they're not on my phone, the cesspool of content on those platforms cannot infect my mind.

I urge anyone who hasn't already to do the same.

Having a second almost 2 year old means I'm on my... Milliontyfifth rewatch of Paw Patrol.

A lot of these episodes do NOT make sense from a narrative perspective.

For example, the episode where Marshall is trying to break the record for "Fastest Firepup".

HOW MANY FIREPUPS ARE THERE???

I love @finalfantasyxiv.bsky.social - have done since I got fully into it in July 2021. And I've even enjoyed #Dawntrail from the very beginning.

But if there's one thing I wish they'd stop doing - it's locking dyeable gear behind Savage content. Not everyone can get a Static arranged.

Hairdresser messed up my hair earlier in the week, that I need to use product for the first time in years to style it.

If I don't, I look like an extra from the Electric Callboy We Got The Moves music video.

I still wish it were Hunter Schafer playing Zelda in the live action film.

...Or Link. I ain't fussy! just give me more Hunter Schafer!

Have you tried Garmin smartwatches? I've had mine for a few years now and couldn't be happier.

If there's one #FFXIV hot take I have that would get me crucified, it's this:

As a Viera player, I couldn't give a crap about hats.

It will forever remain my favourite pondering when I say "You ever stop to think that an egg mayo sandwich is just egg in egg sauce".

Mikl-Leitner über JJ: "Braucht dringend Geschichtslektion" Der Sänger sei „politisch gefährlich falsch beraten“  

This shows exactly how the Israeli propaganda machine is a masterclass in gaslighting. This blind ignorance to the atrocities the Israeli government has wrought ON ITS OWN PEOPLE as well as innocent Palestinians NEEDS TO STOP.

It's Mikl that needs the history lesson.

Hey Apple:

If I have the password for my Apple account and can use it to sign in, and unlock my account (which you locked three times in the last 2 months) then WHY THE HELL DO I ALSO NEED THE SECURITY QUESTIONS?????

This kind of shit right here is why I'm Android until I die.

Even outside of all the controversies surrounding Israel and #Eurovision, can we PLEASE stop living in this deluded fantasy where people say Toy by Netta was a GOOD SONG?

What video game will always transport you back to your childhood?

Absolutely.

But I'm just saying - their geolocation is not the disqualifying factor so many people make it out to be. Not anymore anyway.

But there are so many other factors that you don't even need that to disqualify them.

I'm not condoning Israel or what they did. But this argument is tired and old.
They're in the EBU. Same as all other countries. Which includes Australia. And if you're complaining about Israel's geographical location as a disqualifier, then you need to use that logic for ALL nations in Eurovision.

Yeah, those 500k listens of Luxembourg's song were all me. I am the one.

And I have no regrets.

NA NA NA NA NA NA!

Everyone keeping an interest in #Eurovision this year is arguing about whether Sweden or Austria will win.

Meanwhile, me, living in Austria, vibing with Luxembourg's entry! Absolute bop!

Why can't he just be "all of the above"? I get that "conspiracy theorising baby murdering idiot clown monster" is a mouthful, but the message is worth the effort, I find.

Dear companies,

I know you spend a lot of time, money and effort in developing your own AI chatbot systems. But please, also allow users the choice to opt out of using it. I don't need Meta AI staring me in the face when I use WhatsApp.
Thanks!
All the best,
Syno

If there is one part of my Britishness my wife wishes I could get rid of, it's the slight wave I give drivers when they let me cross the road, like I'm saying "Yes, thank you for not running me over".

Plus, Protecting My Devotion plays during the moment where Beatrix is a playable character and battles alongside Steiner. Roses of May is her character theme which plays when she's introspective.

So, in short - it's not Roses of May recreated for Recollection.

It's Protecting My Devotion.
