🐓Weird Ancient Birds Art Challenge
Draw mythical birds with your imagination! An ancient mythic geographic compilation, Shanhai jing is full of weird birds. Its illustrations were lost long ago. Why don’t we imagine them from the descriptions in the text? Here is the prompt list

You wake up by the side of the road with a headache and a stranger's jacket. You don't recognise the man whose ID you find in the pocket.

So why does an older version of you stare out when you turn on his phone?

The teaser for my timeloop otome is out for Scream Jam!⌛

A character standing on top of a tall building next to a sightseeing bubble in FFXIV.  The surrounding landscape is completely white due to fog.

I finished the DT jumping puzzle by myself, but there was no view thanks to the fog LOL (The #1 advantage of the ARR sightseeing book) #FFXIVLB

HB released a beach illustration of Iku for AGF, and I'd like to know why they've decided to do this to me like 15 years after his game. If it's like two years in, you can be mentally prepared for it, but after 15 years I don't even know how to sort out my thoughts (I want the SS..........)

Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them.

Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!”

Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.”

Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face.

Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Finished 7.1-7.3..............7.1 felt weirdly short AND like the writing wasn't very good, but I liked 7.2 better than 7.1, and 7.3 better than 7.2. New Alliance was super-fun the first day, but now people are too competent and it's just another raid #FFXIVLB

PSA to anyone who uses Google Docs for storage. I have seen cases of people being locked out of their files because it violates their terms of service. Please make sure you keep back-ups of everything you put on there or you might lose it.

Finally got to do the last few dungeons now that my leg's doing better 🥲 Love the Deadwalk (fun aesthetics), mildly dislike Tender Valley, Jeuno is fun but the last two bosses get a little overwhelming for me #FFXIVLB

(The thing I wanted from this card was always more Rustica+Bride....tho I guess it's kind of a difficult ask......) It doesn't feel that yume to me either but IDK, maybe this is just a Rustica problem?? (IE he treats everyone like they're special anyways) #mhyklt

Rustica..........I don't care that they don't talk about love (every Rustica card is a card about Rustica and love). But it feels like there wasn't much point in even delaying this card so long, because you could have this exact story pre-MS2 too #mhyklt

Story-wise I feel like Rustica/Owen brides were kind of mid though 😞 I like the home screen lines + having the sprites for my home screen, but Owen's story felt more like "generic Northern wizard" than "Owen" to me #mhyklt

MHYK June Bride luck can best be summed up with the penguin of the month meme...Rustica is Good Penguin (Came home 4x, mostly outside of his banner) while Owen is the misbehaving one (Made me spark/skip through a bunch of stories to get gems) #mhyklt

(Even in older content that I've gotten a bunch of times...I just do not get better at the cleaves...there's pretty much a 100% chance of me eating 2 debuffs/getting KO'd. IDK what it is even, because mentally it feels like it SHOULD be easy...) #FFXIVLB

Finished Arcadion raids...M4-6 are probably my favorite (5/6 have fun arena/mechanic designs, I like the music in 4/5), while M3/7/8 are my least favorite (Lots of overlap, I can't see anything, any boss with rotating half-cleaves is automatically my enemy) #FFXIVLB

I switched to TSCMAA a couple days ago (bc I didn't realize I never tried this option when troubleshooting) but it's so aggravating I think I'm going to end up going back to hyper-pixelated foliage... 🥲 Everything looks like it's back to normal at first (pre-update/pre-monitor change) but #FFXIVLB

Tsuru is a high-energy adult and she was a high-energy kid too. They'd lose her within five minutes, or she'd immediately start SCREAMING for her dad. Out of WoL's friends/acquaintances, I'd say Artoirel/Y'shtola/Sadu probably have the best chance of dealing with her #FFXIVLB

Finished pt.1 and I think it was mostly OK...but the story also feels VERY formulaic to me. Like an Average standalone RPG instead of a MMORPG expansion (And I mean, it IS a reset point...but I suppose overall tone/depth are different from what I would expect?) #FFXIVLB

(I've been actively avoiding doing this raid until now...Faa-san is the first endgame boss I had real awareness of, so to me he's still the scariest boss in the game) #GBF

I got my first Dark Opus weapon today (+uncap/pendulum 🥳 ) and the weapons themselves are not difficult to get...but it's so many merits for uncap, it feels like it'll be forever before I can actually put another in my grids #GBF

It was Primarch/M2 anima and some urns...I need them for pretty much any grid upgrade IIRC, and I ended up ACTUALLY using them for Zither/Yggdrasil summon uncaps, but it's just like. If I had the mats and DIDN'T use them on either of those things.........why
