I do love Final Fantasy Tactics, but there does come a point where too much knowledge of it's systems can take the challenge right out of it. Four units with ribbons and chantages and one unit invisible with the invisibility cloak will faceroll every fight in the game, level be damned.

I didn't let him use my switch console as a chew toy. He did not appreciate it.

Random post of my handsome cat posing in my window. Nice view, little buddy!

how does no one know about this movie, it is literally one of my all time favorites it's one of the funniest roles for both steve marton *and* eddie murphy and no one i've every brought this up to has ever heard of it criminal, if you haven't seen it fix this

Went to a friend's place a few days ago, he had a mystery booster MTG case that he wanted to crack for draft. I found both Static Orb and Mana Breach in the packs and played sticky flying minions. I will be surprised if I'm ever invited to his place again.

Alright, finished the Bravely Default remaster. Still as good a game as I remember, my third time around, though admittedly it *was* limited in what it could do. The original is known for maximizing every single feature of the 3DS, and while this makes do well enough you still feel what's missing.

Gonna put this out there, Bravely Default remaster is cool and all, but the removal of -100% encounter rates is a *real* drag. One of the best aspects of Bravely Default was it's difficulty adaptability on the fly, and they nix'd the best encounter option? What the hell, Squarenix?

Cats are funny little creatures. People think they're not loyal, but you can't convince me that they do not love their owners with the way they relax and feel safe when you're home. Look at how restful and happy he is when I came home from a busineas trip.

Packed for a trip. No, you would not enjoy the trip if you travelled like that, I promise.

LGBT folk are cool and all, but I am a little salty because they stole my birthday month. Well I hope you make good use out of it and have a happy Pride month, then - I'll be less upset if y'all do something positive with it!

Nearly forgot that my cat's favorite hiding place is inside my television's stand, has some maintenance folk come into my place for repairs and couldn't find him for a minute. He likes jumping behind the television to park himself here until I release him by opening the slide doors. Very cute.

www.gofundme.com/f/help-stevo... Stevo and Val are two of my oldest and closest friends. Stevo was the one who introduced me and Sarah, and was both the officiant and the DJ at our wedding. If you can spare anything at all to help them out, please do.

"Oh boy, got four jokers that I don't have a gold sticker on yet, got a high scoring glass king deck with DNA, this run is in the ba-" *"The Plant" is the 7th ante boss blind*

Alright, final deck finished, finished Balatro Completionist+. Also Anaglyph deck can kiss my ass, this is probably the worst deck - it's basically just a bare deck with nothing special most of the time, woof. Went to Yellow deck after, felt like the easiest experience in comparison.

Glad to know that the 405 traffic was like the Pope today, Google - not moving.

This is "Purity of Essence" levels of insanity.

For funsies I taught myself Conway Chained Arrow Notation (because beeg numbers are fun), noticed in the examples given the editors for Wikipedia have absolutely no idea how Conway's chain notation works. 3 -> 2 -> 2 -> 2 = 9, not... whatever the heck Wikipedia says it is in the example.

Huh, first time I bulleted through a deck like that before. Had a dumb loss at red stake once, but then didn't lose a game from Red through Gold. Turns out the *very* strong early game of Checkered deck shores up my general early game weakness, fancy that. Didn't even run flushes most of the runs!

Riff-raff giving me a round 2 Photochad combo... on the Abandoned deck. *sigh* Thanks a lot, Jimbo.

There is nothing terrible enough that I don't want to happen to these bastards in particular, this is a betrayal to a magnitude not before seen by Democrats.

I think I have a good Balatro run goin'.

Man, be careful out there. Spent a post or two arguing with someone who was acting suspiciously dishonest, checked their replies (they had no posting history), turns out they were a Musk simp. Block on site, don't give em' oxygen, they thrive on being piles of garbage on here.

Look at that sass in that face. He does not appreciate cameras with flash!

I know the material reasons for the rise of fascism. I also think another reason - which doesn’t get talked about as much because it’s embarrassing that humans can be that naive - is that when you are financially comfortable but bored, abstract cruelty can give you a sense of purpose.

Wasn't intending my space to be Balatro all day every day, but darnit it's a fun game to post about. Jokerless is finished, took me a while to get the hang of it. High scaling hands like four of a kind helps, and you get a large number of deck shaping tools to get you what you need. Tough stuff!

I picked up an Otamatone yesterday. It's over, fools, I'm gonna learn how to rock that thing *so hard*

Alrighty, Black Deck Gold Stake get! Surprised I managed it as quick as I did, apparently prioritizing economy jokers with that extra slot and rolling for good ante 1 tags helps get it off the ground to get the win. I admit the midgame Triboulet helped (getting his gold stake win was great, too!).

Tried to get up at a reasonable time this morning, got stopped by my cat on my hand. *sigh* Okay, I guess I can stick around for another half hour...

Did something stupid yesterday on Final Fantasy Tactics. Got Delita to master the Calculator job before the Milleuda fight, wanted to see how a neutral AI handled that kind of power. Turns out they don't handle it well - CT4 Holy, killing everyone including himself. Settle down there, buddy!

Heh, I was wondering why my gold stake run nearly peter'd out at the end. Turns out I accidentally killed my ~6x Obelisk in the middle of the boss. Fortunately I was close enough to salvage the win, but this almost snatched defeat from the jaws of victory - keep an eye on your played hands, folks!

It's going to be years of political turmoil and misery, so here is a picture of my cat sticking his tongue out while completely asleep. It'll be the little things that get us through, hopefully he can help y'all get through the day like he did with me. :)

Very sad and tragic news to share regarding the DC plane crash: ReMixer DragonAvenger's sister-in-law and niece were among the 67 killed. In you're able to, please give to the family's GoFundMe. ANY amount sincerely helps. gofundme.com/f/honoring-j... VIDEO: nbcnews.com/video/young-...

Things are going to be rough out there for folk for the foreseeable future. What little I can do I will do, which for today means showing a very cute picture I captured of my cat. May he lighten people's day, even if but a little.

I know we ignore the donation pop-up when we use the site, but consider setting up small monthly donations to Wikipedia now that they're going to be targetted Elon and the incoming administration. They don't like readily available facts, don't let them kill it. donate.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?...

Just putting it out there: yes, Elon did a Nazi salute twice. He's a monster. Now that we got that out of the way, trans folk just had all personhood stripped from them via executive order. Don't comply with said orders, and provide whatever you can to keep them safe. Keep your eye on the ball.

Just in case people need a way to explain the California fires, imagine this: A class 1 or class 2 hurricane, except instead of water it delivers fire. If someone wants to be snarky, just ask them how to stop a hurricane, then ask how to stop a hurricane made of fire. It's as bad as it sounds.

Anyone want to see the stupidest Plasma arrangement? How about, uh, four duplicated Wee jokers and a Blueprint? With duplicated 2's from an early DNA? Yeah, this was a *comically* easy game, even at Orange stake. The Hack I got in endless just sealed the ridiculousness of it all.

I'm going to put this out there since it's bugged me for a while: bots that prey on folk who sympathize with genocide victims in Gaza can go straight to hell. Stick to making porn bots, the fuck is wrong with you as a person. If you want to support Gaza victims please use official verified means.

Gold stake, shmold stake, everything is easy when you start with a negative blueprint and get two legendary jokers along the way. This was such a stupid run and I love it.

Ooo, got my first "Mr. Bones" save in a run - didn't have the juice to beat the Ante 8 boss, saw this fellow in the shop, cheezed the win. A win is a win, I say!

I hit discard instead of play on ante 7 purple needle boss in Balatro I hit discard instead of play on ante 7 purple needle boss in Balatro I hit discard instead of play on ante 7 purple needle boss in Balatro I hit discard instead of play on ante 7 purple needle boss in Balatro I hit discard instea

Actually a *really* good deck building game, and it's at the reasonable price of "Free" today. Pick it up, it's worth checking out!

20+ years of community moderation taught me this: you don’t have to be fair. You don’t have to cite policy or rules. You can just ban someone for being an asshole. Moderation doesn’t have to be objective. We are not running governments and courts of law. Lawyers need not apply.

Vigilante justice is the worst form of justice - too often it creates innocent victims. In a just-less society, however, it's the only form of justice that will persist. Maintain a society that metes out justice equally and fairly and you'll not need fear vigilantism.

It's really hard to express how beautiful the game Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles really is. @requinoesis.bsky.social really did a great job with the art in this one! Glad this finally came out to a portable system like Switch, the game's biggest flaw use to be I could only play it on my computer.

I joined a Chrono Trigger fan forum but it was kind of a Spekkio chamber
