I’m hopefully gonna run 3 more Scourge of the Past raids in Destiny tonight. The long quest for Anarchy continues. Also dipped my toes into the Animal Crossing update enough to have a swim around my island. Tomorrow is Apollo’s birthday, so I’ll be on there at least long enough to gift him a guitar.

I went to the doctor last week and was surprised to find they weren’t screening people’s temperature at the door anymore. They’d done that when I went back in March, right at the beginning of all this, but I guess this particular office isn’t worried anymore? Masks were still required and the waiting room was…

Hello, yes, I have also been lured here to stan Tallgeese.

I’ve gone from having one hamper of unfolded laundry to two hampers. I have to confront this in the coming days, but I don’t know if I’m strong enough.

Some of the most fun I’ve had with a game this year was playing Islanders, that high-score based city builder. For every island I completed, I came up with a short little narrative about the people who lived there, the main industries, probable religion, and little political situations based on the layout of the…

I’ve got two days off next week as observance for July 4, and that’s what’s going to get me through the week. I’m probably overdue to take some time off, even if I can’t go anywhere or do anything.

Have you felt the nerf at all since Tuesday? I only just started playing him this week, so I wouldn’t know the difference, but at least one streamer I watch who had a very aggro Caustic read the patch notes and concluded that the character was dead for his purposes.

Hopefully some more dungeon runs in Destiny, but I’ve also been enjoying the current Apex event, and I have a surprise for my friends if the three of us play together this weekend.

I don’t think “nooksucker” is quite as sanitized as you think, but I applaud this anyway.

Thanks, I’ll definitely check that out.

This gives me a better sense for the game than the stream they did today. I think I’m going to be ignoring the marketing from here on out. That new trailer left me cold for all the guns and stabbing and stuff. I want to see more stuff like the boxing quest you talked about.

here to say the new Forbes-y loading screen sucks and that the lettuce soup aside made me chuckle

I’m pretty sure all lettuce will eventually just be a vehicle for salmonella. I basically stopped buying it after I found a bug inside a stalk a few years back. I’ll buy spinach from time to time, but I don’t fuck with the stuff otherwise.

I’m probably looking for the Subsistence + Rampage roll as a replacement, yeah. I just find Overflow to be really satisfying.

To clarify, the community managers have responded to that reddit post you linked about raid gear and confirmed that the help article is incorrect. Last Wish and Garden gear will not be power capped until season 14.

Very keen to find out what this is.

You ready for the weekend, Ethan?

Grinding in Destiny 2 so that my friends and I can tackle the new dungeon. I feel like Animal Crossing is on the wane for me. Haven’t played that since Monday. Hopefully I can find a second to check in this weekend, but we’ll see.

idk dude i kinda dig it

I dislike the heat and humidity that comes with Summer, but since I have depression, I tend to enjoy everything else. Lots of sun. Lots of opportunity to exercise (just have to dodge the daily chance of thunderstorm). I could do without the insects, too.
