I did it. I downloaded ELDEN RING. I spent like 45 minutes just making the face look better, then made it through a tutorial cave sort of thing. I will gladly welcome any tips, even super “duh” ones. I’ve played Final Fantasy games, BG3, Divinity OS 1&2, games w typical combat, still scared tho!

Watching Project Hail Mary for the first time and had never seen the trailer or read the book and didn’t know it’s a movie with a rock alien in a hamster ball (I’m delighted by this)

Fuck off. If anything is "millennial", it's those cool transparent colors our iMacs, Gameboys, and Tamagotchis came in. No fucking millennial likes the house flipper grey. Call it a millennial paint job when I can see through the exterior of a car because it's Glacier Purple like my GBA.

An image showing the colorful transparent plastic of various pieces of technology of the 90's and early 2000s, that were easily the popular choice of the millennial age bracket. Some of the tech is an iMac, Nintendo 64, Sega DreMcast, a PlayStation 2, a Gameboy color and Advance, and CD player.

No fuck off we're not calling this "Millennial grey" this shit was dictated completely by boomer retiree house flippers we absolutely had NO say in this

Millennial grey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A kitchen with beige grey floors, drab walls, brushed steel appliances, and grey granite countertops.
Grey floors and furnishings are said to appeal to Millennial tastes.
Millennial grey refers to a desaturated colour scheme that is said to appeal to the interior design sensibilities of the Millennial Generation in the early 21st century.[1] Cultural historian Kassia St. Clair attributed its widespread adoption to a desire among Millennials for "a flexible, sensible choice that will last years, hide any stains, and can be adapted to different schemes."[1] Some have diagnosed Millennial grey as a reaction to the warm hues of the late 20th century.[2]

Millennial grey is polarising, particularly when used with imitation-wood-texture sheet vinyl flooring, which many describe as depressing, soulless, or corporate.[3][4] Although attributed to Millennials, the grey colour scheme is often chosen by house flippers, vacation rental owners, or other people who do not actually live in the greyed properties.[3] Thus, the occupant of the property—Millennial or not—has little say in its colour scheme, particularly when deployed for fixtures such as flooring.[4] The greying may have been driven, in part, by a desire to prepare properties for sale in a manner thought to be least offensive to the average buyer.[5] Given the housing crises gripping many countries in the early to mid-21st century, buyers and renters may feel they have no choice but to accept a property decked in Millennial grey.[4]

To the extent that Millennial grey is said to be enjoyed by Millennials, it is also said to be loathed by Generation Z.[1][2]

So far this morning, I have seen people post about Sam Neil helping the environment, loving animals, respecting women, honoring aboriginal people, assisting struggling actors, and being funny. It turns out if you are a good person you are remembered fondly.

Lots of pieces, but for something more vague: Jason Lazarus’ photo exhibit “too hard to keep.” People send in the only copies of photos they have, that are too painful to keep. Some of them you can guess why; others more vague and leave you wondering why they were so painful.

Art question 🎨 What painting, photograph, sculpture, or piece of visual art has stayed with you long after you first saw it? Not necessarily your favorite. The one that lingered.

Caught up with the first two episodes of House of the Dragon and last nights episode. Who the fuck is DAERON??? Admittedly I forgot like 90% of what happened last season but I swear I’ve never heard of this guy

Jahan was mad that I wouldn't reveal the orc warrior and warrior dudes secret forbidden love to their superiors. Wolgraff continues to be my favorite character for the snarky notes he hands to my party members when they're being assholes

Screenshot from Divinity Original Sin. "Yes, Wolgraff, yes! Let's celebrate our having acted as inter-species pimps! Truly a tale for the history books!"Screenshot from Divinity Original Sin.  "*Wolgraff hands Jahan a little bag of sugar and a note:
"Eat this. Maybe you'll finally say something sweet next time.'*"

In Divinity Original Sin you and your fellow Source Hunter will disagree on stuff and then have to rock paper scissors the argument. Roderick thought Desdemona should forgive her husband for getting her and dozens of people on a ship killed. I disagreed.

Roderick: Why perpetuate anger and rage? Desdemona should forgive the sorry soul.
1. If you're so forgiving, I should be able to throw YOU against ocean rocks and expect a hug afterward, yes? (Intimidate)
2. I wouldn't forgive your murderer until I'd made him suffer for eternity. I'm sure you'd feel the same. (Charm)
3. Need I remind you that Samson killed not just Desdemona, but an entire shipful of people? He'll need more forgiveness than hers to atone for this crime. (Reason)
4. All right, we'll do it your way!

I loved all my companions in Divinity Original Sin 2 (playing as Sebille with a part of Fane, Ifan, Lohse). However in DOS1 after 25 hours I only like Wolgraff. He doesn't have stupid banter, doesn't bicker with me, just alerts me to traps and writes notes to Jahan to tell him to shut the fuck up

*Wolgroff hands Jahan a note: If ever someone deserved to lose his tongue, it is you, not I"Wolgraff waves at Jahan dismissively. He for one is glad to have been a part of htese ghosts' happy end against all odds.

Playing Divinity Original Sin 1 and gotta say the party is nowhere near as good as DOS2. Roderick keeps undermining me, Jahan keeps whining about demons and love being a scam, but Wolgraff who has no tongue and seems unbothered by much is pretty cool
