I tried it in the past too and agree it was hot garbage. But I came across this thread yesterday and decided to give it another look. And I'm impressed, to be honest. It's way better than it used to be. It's strange to me that Apple is making one of the better music apps for Android, but here we are.

Might have been a HIMARS strike. Those things can make quite a mess.

That's exactly it. Deleted my Instagram account when I learned they signed me up for a Threads account automatically. Haven't used Insta in years, but Mark says I have to have a Threads account. So Fuck Zuck.

There are some roads I will not go down.

It is still my favorite, although Endwalker gives it a run for the money.

 

So for the longest time my character has been a male highlander Hyur. I made him to kinda look like me. I usually tank in DF, and would receive a middling amount of commendations after a run.

About a week ago I decided to completely change stuff up. I fantasia'd into a male Viera, and candidly made him gorgeous. Also made an attractive adventure plate for him too.

And ever since I've changed, the comms just seem to flow in. Way more than they used to, and I'm still the same mediocre tank.

But now I'm a pretty bunny boy. And it seems people like pretty bunny boys. I had no idea.

I'm a casual player. Joined when the big WoW exodus occurred a couple years ago. I was immediately blown away by just how obvious it was that the game developers deeply care about the players. So many small QoL features; what, you don't dismount me when riding past a mob? What, I'm not locked into a class? And while I was a little put off at first by the lack of addons, I've come to learn that the stock UI is usually more than enough. My mental health is better now that I don't see damage meters.

I've got a bit over 96 days of playtime. I'm doing a second play through with an alt because I'm addicted to the MSQ and the other Scions. That and I wanted experience again the emotional punch that is Shadowbringers and Endwalker.
