It has been at least 2 months since I've quit FFXIV RP and honestly, this is the happiest I've been in a while (more attributed, I think, to moving across the country and living with a partner I love deeply) that said, I sometimes think about the Bloodsands, what it means to me, and what I learned

This is by far the hardest lesson I ever learned with the Bloodsands, and one I learned late because I was always concerned with excluding people. A space for everyone is a space for no one. Kick the douchebags.

A couple years ago I asked him if he used Cameos/paid the VAs (he didn’t) & when I spread awareness it was AI/labour theft he put a plotline about me getting killed directly in his video (monetised & made hundreds in USD from) calling me a “fatherless degenerate” & a “pervert” merely bc I am mlm!

hi! i have been chipping away at making a black modding compendium, similar to my transmasc one. (images below have the non-tldr) TLDR: im looking for black modders/creators who would be willing to offer feedback on what i currently have + this is a task i want to pay you for taking the time to do!

guys, why do I keep getting fat fetish stuff in my bluesky feed I don't know what I interacted with to make this happen and I do not know how to stop it, send help

“We parted company at the moment when all kinds of things were about to find their way into words.” Find yourself a correspondent who writes to you as Gustave Flaubert did to George Sand.

I love that my feed is partially Magic The Gathering because I'll see people going "Man, I can't wait to pair Appa, beloved companion of Aang in hit series Avatar: The Last Air Bender, with this eldritch-slug manifestation of Catharsis" and apparently it's a viable build combo??

Looking for Roleplay? Invictus Company will be handing out Levequests on February 6th at 8:00 PM EST in front of the Mateus Quicksand for a few hours! Drop on by and grab a quest, bring some friends and hold a mini event! #FFXIVRP #FFXIV

Hello friends! I'm retiring from the FFXIV RP sphere and from leading the Bloodsands to dedicate my life to loving my partner to the fullest of my capabilities and making an IRL community We had a good run, and I appreciate all the love and support this community's given me! A final note:

maybe it seems cruel and not particularly humanist to want to run racists out of every community by bombarding them with demands that they kermit. but consider that coddling racists and insisting that "both sides are valid" is how we got where we are today. time for that to end i think.

FFXIV is officially rated T for Teen by multiple countries. You cannot be posting straight up porn using tags like “FFXIV” or you can get SE into serious legal trouble. Post what you want, but remove official watermarks and don’t use any official tags.

Feo Ul had a relatively positive relationship with much of the Crystarium's citizens. One example was Lyna's parents. Shortly after her birth, Lyna's mother Liruna, was feeding Lyna and allowed Feo Ul to touch the baby's cheek

Raine's often perceived as heartless and Daegan's often perceived as stupid. Raine's the most empathetic of all my characters, and Daegan, while lacking education, is critically perceptive and leverages people's innate trust of "jolly, big, loud, silly man" to learn more about them

A few folks have opened up stalls with people hawking wares. Role-players are starting to slowly filter in. I'm looking forward to seeing some of you all out and about tonight.

I'm curious, beyond normal Starlight gift givings and Winter's Knell feasts, do your characters/warriors of light have any other practices/habits around the turning of the year? Any superstitions or rituals they or their families/people do to close out one year and bring in a fresh one? #wolqod

ok fine

A few of us were talking about how nifty it might be to do some walk-up role-play at the Starlight Markets. So, Monday at 8PM US Eastern some of us are going to get together on the Mateus markets for open world, walk up roleplay. Feel free to come out and join us! #ffixv #ffixvrp

what do they gain from this

Karnalsa the ancient one Shaded bust for batguysofficial #monster #eldritch

Tonight, drop in on Buscarron's Druther's in the South Shroud of Mateus for some open-world, walk-up roleplay. We'll see you at 5PM for some of our EU folks and 8PM Come have a pint and enjoy the last week of relative calm before the upcoming Starlight season gets into full swing. #ffxivrp #ffxiv

'In the winter garden' - my favourite geometric garden aerial that I've ever done! I don't remember if I shared it here or not yet - it has camellia bushes in the centre and beds of winter heather and hellebore :) the geometric landscapes are always more challenging and I love that! #embroidery

A special treat landed today. A prize lured in from the depths for all of you who enjoy some good lyrics rewriting and singing. So cast your ears to this catch of a song. ... I may have gone a touch overboard there with the fishing terms. #ffxiv

me: "FFXIV is down for maintenance, I should go to bed early and get some sleep." my brain:

It's Mogtomes season soon, which means another non definitive guide to things you can grab from the event!
