Today’s guide that no one asked for: Pricing scries for other people When recommending scries to other people, you should be aware of their budget. Sometimes the person will specify their budget (e.g. “no gem genes please”), but even if they don’t, you can make a strong educated guess.Factors indica...
I haven’t been keeping up with my daily drawing task (been doing it maybe half the time, if that), so I joined a Habitica challenge. It’s exactly the same task—draw something every day—but it comes with a Discord server and a daily sketch channel, and somehow that makes all the difference. It’s kind...
amazing how the Daylight Savings transition has been seamless this spring after falling back, at 11 am: why am I so hungry when it’s not even noon…oh. guess I gotta wait an hour after springing forward, at noon: lunchtime! woo! edit (3/12): *rolls over in bed, checks watch* it’s 8:27 am already?? …m...
Flight Rising: Gen 2 of my Breed Out the Ugly Challenge just hatched. One of the three hatchlings inherited runes instead of gembond. Heir CONFIRMED. Gonna get her a mate from Razanei’s line (either a Zeke x Avanc kid, or a Lysander kid (pending hatch results)). I slightly prefer using Lysander’s ki...
Been kind of a shambles lately, but especially today. I had been planning to go into the office today, but the forecast was single-digit windchill and possibly ice and snow during my commute in, so I decided to pass. I stayed up until 1 am playing Stardew Valley, went to sleep at 2 am, the usual. Wo...
more wisdom/philosophy from HGR. “Prometheus showed us where the flame is: inside us. Like Jesus. Wait what. Can we talk about how Pandora is a complete bitch?”
Our Eevees so far: Sherbet the Sylveon (level 23, no useful passives): A pre-evo we picked up with a master biscuit. Waste of 4k sleep points. PSA: Don’t use master biscuits on pre-evos, they’re typically vastly inferior to a handpicked pokemon with good passives that you evolved yourselfDorito the ...
I recently unlocked the new Pokemon Sleep zone, Lapis Lakeside (grass/psychic/fighting), and have spent the past week and a half there. pros: so aesthetic!! cons: My team is incredibly baby and so is my Snorlax. Last week I got 350K. By contrast, my previous Taupe Hollow Snorlax was 700K+. (My recor...
I was complaining about pals getting stuck and HGR composed a haiku from my complaints: I hate this fucker / he floats above the feed bin / my game freezes up In any case, our feed bin woes are mostly over, because HGR, newbie, and I beat Palworld over the weekend. The final boss was Victor & ...
Last night, HGR, newbie, and I lost to the PIDF tower boss (we timed out). We were preparing to try again when HGR noticed his epic handgun had disappeared from his inventory. Seconds later, I noticed my refined metal pickaxe had also disappeared. They had both been in handheld slot #2. newbie theor...
I’ve been cooped up for most of January due to gloomy days + early dusk + extreme cold snap + ice and snow. I still go outside every day, but it’s become increasingly perfunctory (e.g., taking out trash after dark). So my resolution for February is: more outdoors! more daylight! And I’m going to log...
Pros to being the zero-attention-span guy who roams everywhere: FIRST IN SQUAD to max out my catch power via finding lifmunk effigies yeahhhh Cons: It’s 2 am, HGR is out of mats for pokeballs, and everyone else is asleep. He keeps asking stuff like “where do we get more paldium?” “where do we mine o...
