i'm seeing responses that it's okay to dislike things or have boundaries but that's not what we're objecting to. it's the puritan ideals. the "pedo" blocklists that don't involve child abuse but people who make adult lalafell art, a sentiment widely shared in those spaces.

this is the last i'll mention it but the point of the lalafell discussion isn't that it's censorship to not enjoy adult works with them. it's making the discomfort a moral issue and using VERY serious real life terms like "child porn/pedophilia" about adult fictional characters to alienate others.

am i playing monster hunter right

I ORDER MY COFFEE BLACK. NO SUGAR. NO MILK. NO WATER. NO CUP. THEY HAND ME THE BEANS. I EAT THEM IN THE PARKING LOT LIKE A HORSE. THE BARISTAS HAVE STOPPED CHARGING ME. I HAVE NOT SLEPT SINCE TUESDAY. I CAN HEAR THE WIFI

no but when people talk about stormblood everyone mentions haha raubahn savage but everyone forgets that for days clearing susano could lock you out of your character and we didn't know the reason for days. and when we did find out it still required a GM individually fixing it for you.

Gandalf the White 🔮 LOTR is probably the thing I’ve read/watched/been obsessed with the most since I was like 6 🗣️ #lotr #gandalf #tolkien #art #fantasy

had a dream shortly before waking uo that they did emergency maintenance in xiv and didnt explain why. and then when i queued for expert chort had hair

#7.5spoilers also guys not sorry for M/Fing on the timeline I think Jullus's crush on Zero is the cutest fucking thing ever. I'm going to blow up

i think you really have to remember that the twins (and ryne) are adults within the story and the cultural context the characters exist in for ffxiv to make sense. they're young adults, but there are plenty of independent adults their age within the setting and the characters don't see them as kids

Yes, sex is part of the human experience for many, and it can be a powerful tool for character study (how they fuck matters!). But, like, sometimes a sex scene's sole purpose is to titillate or arouse and *that is also fine and good, actually*. Porn is one of the oldest expressions of art we have!

One of the moments I actually really enjoyed in Endwalker was one that we really didn't spend much time on. When the people of Radz-At-Han found comfort in their Faith in the face of insurmountable horror - Final Fantasy games tend to be very critical view towards Religious institutions, but they -

lrt not even joking ive rolled 80s and 90s multiple times and lost the rolls. at this point if i roll under 97, i assume im not getting it.

deeply annoyed at the reaction to grown women dressing vintage is “omg she’s dressing like a baby!!!” name 1 baby you know

They had to kill papalymo because otherwise the hag off between him and Emet Selch would’ve been too powerful

It bothers me that writing smut is looked down on for many reasons, but one of them is because how and why a character has sex can tell you so much about their personality. PWP can be a fantastic avenue for a character study

consider this

I've been a lot happier as a person and creator since I started asking myself, "Are you scared of it because it bothers YOU, or have you just internalized being told it's problematic?" and then doing it scared. I hope everyone else can also find something so freeing.

(scrolling Bluesky) I reject the premise. I reject the premise. Granted. I reject the premise. Not my fetish. Granted. I reject the premise. Funny. I reject the premise.

i need an option to beet up an npc with a baseball bat if i play triple triad with them for half an hour and they don't give me any cards.

okay but when is this gonna stop happening IM SO TIRED OF HAVING 100000000 VERSIONS OF THE EXACT SAME PANTS BUT THE GIRLS GET 1000000 DIFFERENT SHORTS/STOCKINGS THAT ARE THE CUTEST SHIT YOUVE EVER SEEN IN YOUR LIFE ┌(｡°з ┐ )┘三└( ┌ ε°｡)┐┘

lrt - that goes for individual interactions too, tbh. if someone's determined to misunderstand you, you can't explain your way out of it. i do think its also an element of like... not sunk-cost-fallacy, but something like it.

The reason why you can't post your way out of being harassed is because posting explanations assumes that the people who are harassing you are acting in good faith and are genuinely interested in understanding your perspective and here's the thing: that's basically never the case.

genuinely a little upset that they changed the third walk's boss arena. i liked that it was actually interesting instead of generic aetheric blue floor #6268239046723423. oh well

once again begging everyone to listen to the amalj'aa theme in zahar'ak because it's singlehandedly one of the best pieces of music in this game & it's from ARR

these 𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 things they neither lift nor peel. I can't remember the last time I didn't give up and stab the damn thing to get it open without dealing with this bullshit

personal opinion but i am sick of people saying the pre-titan stuff is the worst part/worst slog of arr. the pre-titan stuff isn't that bad, it has a dungeon in it, and it serves a narrative purpose. no, the worst part of arr is the fucking pre-garuda bullshit

No, I don’t want to share my location. No, I don’t want to download your app. No, I don’t want to make an account. I just want to look at your menu to see how much your stupid fucking burger costs.

Dear people who make video games, Please stop making your games so damn dark. No, I don't mean thematically. I mean visually. Way too many games are so poorly lit that I need to turn the brightness all the way up to see any damn thing. It's kinda annoying after a point.
