Head's up there is a Bluesky ban scam going around. This account just joined 40 mins ago and send me this DM. DO NOT CLICK THE LINK. Bluesky would NEVER send a DM like this and make you scared. This would come through email and would have a more professional email than this. Stay safe!

THE BEST FFXI ANTAGONISTS FOR EACH YEAR #ffxi

so much shit i wanna watch thats exclusive to netf/lix criesssss

always insane about the patch 3.2 Word of the Mother art

David Lynch said this specifically about the fact that #TransRightsAreHumanRights. That said, if it *also* becomes a rallying call for human rights in general, I don't believe that would be a bad thing either.

If you ever question if your fanfic is too self indulgent please remember that’s actually the point of fanfiction

“0% woke shit” a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

My Scree Surprise gacha boxes are a go! I will make these in batches, so the cut-off date to get them before the holidays is 11/15. #ffxiv #xivmerch #handmade

Using ChatGPT

Because SE's QA people are probably not in a position to defend themselves and their jobs in public, I want to spell out some of what it is they specifically do for us localizers, because nothing I've written here is rhetorical. SE QA acts as a final check on our work after translation and editing.

Anyway I hadn't heard anyone talking about this, so I guess I'm gonna talk about it. Spread the word if you're thinking about doing an nsfw KS project, Stripe apparently might pull your funding at literally any step of the process, with zero warning!

im gonna say this: square enix needs to address the issues in xiv lately Please oh my god

I am not fucking joking when I say the English-speaking video game world would be nothing without GameFAQs. Everyone and their mom used it (literally, my mom and all her friends). If you played video games in the 2000s you probably knew GameFAQs in the same way most people know, like, Wikipedia

"so milky now that youre done with mentors you can write all the fanfic you want, right?"

okay i may need to return to silkysong here are some screenshots because the games been out for awhile and now i can scream a lil bitAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Via @videogameschronicle.com, Square Enix lays off 140+ people in North America and Europe across nearly all roles:

Ironic Fate #ffxiv #ffxivart

lrt if we get more word of this and see the ai garbage i will legit stop playing xiv and consider squeni dead. the nf/ts were bad enough. but this and the current state of xiv (the crashes, dcs, ddos attacks, poor management in general) are ridiculous and not even in a funny way

Square Enix announces more layoffs as part of US and Europe restructuring - “Nearly all areas” of Square Enix’s Western business affected by latest cuts, it tells staff www.videogameschronicle.com/news/square-...

i might do a writeup on how i feel about the Mentor Roulette Experience because i have Thoughts… hmmmm…….

If you're wondering how this will go Square Enix handed off their mobile Octopath game to NetEase who immediately started using ChatGPT to translate everything resulting in text like this. When players complained they started asking fans to fix their translations in exchange for in-game currency

heavensward road trip #ffxiv postcard available on my shop................ later 🙂‍↕️

i need to learn blender only so I can have minfilia hit thancred with her 2018 honda civic

The unsundered #KattMeme

Anyway my little baby man is still costing me over 1K a month on top of everything else, if you happen to want to help my venmo is @hailey-brown-27 and Penny’s GFM is still live 😭❤️ gofund.me/b572ac34e

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

lrt hooogh that is. a dangerously pretty esti hoooooogh

when fictional characters are finally making the smallest physical contact in the middle of a slowburn

Pilot had a massive ad spread in a jp newspaper with "make AI jealous" and "write what AI can't touch" written on it Anyway I think everyone should own a Pilot kakuno pen

lrt i used to shop at target all the time, but ever since their big backpedal on d/ei and their ongoing bullshit i no longer shop there! couldnt even pay me to get back in there if theyre going to shit on marginalized communities.

Target, who openly fucked over black & queer people for a few bucks, is offering a Thanksgiving meal for 4 people for $20. Aldi, who pays employees well and hasn't given a red cent to Trump or various PACS, has a Thanksgiving meal for 10 people for $40. It's not a hard choice. FUCK Target.

really tho esti being bad at holding his liquor is Adorable -- like yes its a result of his whole life up to now being so devoted to vengeance and thus he doesnt indulge but now he can enjoy tasty food and snacks and getting shwasted on smirnoff ice like a high school girl

i want to break free #ffxiv

let esti get white girl wasted he deserves it

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting. If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.

is xiv doing ok today or are we still fucking under attack

As a headsup for anyone on Vyvanse, you should go check your lot numbers. www.health.com/adhd-medicat...

this is age-old discourse, i can't believe i'm seeing someone say this sincerely in 2025. this is a fake problem located entirely within a specific type of fandom. there is plenty of non-gay art about male friendship and being gay continues to be much more stigmatized than "men being friends"

lover boy #FFXIV #haurchewol #wolnpc #wolship

anyway im working on another fic with The Elephant and: i love him, i love this beautiful stupid man LET HIM BE SILLY!!! LET HIM BE OUTSIDE!!!
