I wanna play FFXIV but I don't have the tiiiiiiiime.....

Time to go to an airport

I want to get the Breath of the Wild DLC, but I also think it's a MASSIVE waste of time that won't make the game worth playing. Decisions, decisions.... :eo_thinking:

I'm not too good at #art yet, but here's some #CavesofQud fanart of my character Iruka! They're level 10. I'm so proud of them.

For the first time ever in Caves of Qud, I have survived for over an hour and have completed a quest. I'm so proud of myself😭

Just saw The Last Jedi

Gosh, it was so good (I cried like 3 times)

@bea I'm having loads of deaths in the early game, as expected. I can't even get through the rust caves to the east of Joppa because one or two Slugsnouts will spawn and insta-murder me 😭

@bea I think my favorite part of it is the Fallout New Vegas-style character growth system. It's nice to play something where I can map out character progression well in advance.

Also, you know, it just feels great to play. I haven't had this much roguelike fun since Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup

Some fun facts about the laptop I'm using over break:

Cons:
> It's the original model of HP Omen, which means there are massive fan problems
> Google fuckin' Chrome can make this thing rev like a motorcycle
> Any actual game makes the base of the laptop hot enough to actively burn my skin if I put it on my legs
> Has a GTX 960M that feels more like a potato when playing anything with modern graphics
> The trackpad is enormous (1/3 the width of the keyboard) so typing means accidentally moving the mouse everywhere

Pros:
> Fun keyboard lighting effects
> Still functional after 3 years of heavy use
> When it's not burning my legs, at least I stay warm!!

Caves of Qud: *Kills my character before I even leave the first town of the game*

Me: omg I love this game so much

It's so cold in this basement ;-;

Something I've noticed is that I tie a lot of my self-worth to the accomplishments of the people around me. Like, if somebody accomplishes something that I haven't managed to accomplish-- anything from getting their degree to finishing their fanfiction-- I treat it as inherently lowering my own worth as a person.

Which, obviously, isn't how that works.

So my reminder for y'all is: be nice to yourselves. Your worth is inherently your own. The success of others is not your failure.

Christmas, AKA "how many steam games can I fit on this sub-par laptop with 100gb storage space"
