Not enjoying the Sugar Riot fight at all. Specifically, I hate the add phase.I have aoe in my kit, but I’ve never had to use it in raids, only very casually in dungeons. I was perfectly happy ignoring it. Now there’s all kinds of annoying considerations like “I can’t initiate on the ray with X attac...
Cirrus, the wind ancient, has been officially slated for May and a teaser image posted...and it’s a horse. It’s like 90% horse and 10% dragon. It doesn’t even have wings. I’m pretty meh on this. It’s the second ancient in a row that has been a dud for me, since I’m bleh on adult everluxes. (Big fan ...
Around a week ago, I had a Costco tonkotsu ramen bowl for dinner. Instead of using the packet of chili oil that comes with it, I added Korean chili sauce. I left the packet of chili oil on the counter, thinking I might try it on potatoes at some point. Today, roommate got up for a ramen break. In th...
Welcome to Sugar Riot’s gallery of glowworms! “THE PAINTRESS PLAGUES US STILL,” said newbie. “FOR THOSE WHO COME AFTER!!” I don’t have a lot to say about the Sugar Riot fight so far. I just needed to get that newbie quote in. I was concerned the cacti would be honeybee levels of Just Do the Mechan...
Saturday morning, HGR was like “I want a big plate of anything BUT potatoes” and also “I don’t WANT to fight Dancing Green.” So, that’s how the potato diet (and raid tier) is going. Going to collect all the potato recipes here. Seasonings listed are a bit arbitrary (aka whatever I used on that occas...
Been thinking about potatoes lately. newbie and HGR have both gone on the potato diet, in which you can eat all the potatoes you want (with seasoning and sour cream, debatably cheese) but nothing else. I’m not one for fad diets. But the two of them have been talking about potatoes constantly, and it...
Had yet another dream about being late to work. It went like this: === I was watching the guys play a video game. HGR had just joined, and he was bickering with newbie. Good times. Eventually I got up to get ready for work, feeling surprisingly more rested than usual. Then I realized why I was so we...
Going on a walk with a toddler is great because everything is so interesting to them. It’s refreshing to see joy in things I would normally walk past without noticing. Some interesting things we saw with BB this weekend:Birds. The park features a lot of free-growing plant areas, especially in and ar...
woop weekend at brother's place. Special thanks to Dante for randomly being on vacation in Mexico on the weekend my parents were like “hey, wanna come visit?” At 22 months, BB is entering tantrum age, although we didn’t see that side of him this weekend. The park is a sticking point. See, the house’...
HGR and newbie mined a bunch of silver on the mountain and then had to get it down the mountain and back home. It was too much to carry on their persons, so they made a PRO PLAN: (1) Build a longboat. (2) Store the silver in the longboat’s cargo hold. (3) Slide the longboat down the mountain. When i...
I entered chat on Saturday to find an ongoing debate about whether “flesh house” or “human house” was the proper term for a house made of human flesh. Luis suggested “human house” was better for plausible deniability (oh, it’s probably just a house for humans, that’s all). numbers said it was situat...
since the subject of gratitude journaling came up, here's my gratitude journal entries from March chill valheim session, exploring the northern reaches of the starting continentmore (very slow) valheim exploration. actually learning the game mechanics! copper + tin = bronze. tin is on the shoreline....
