OUTSIDE

My parents drove up with a load of groceries today! I asked for some stuff I can't get locally (bao, basmati rice, Indian curry sauce) as well as various staple foods. Dad, who is in charge of the family shopping, went all-out. For instance, for the bao, he got me two packs of char siew bao + a pack...

june gratitude

discussing "hamilton: the musical: the mmo" with hgr (hamilton has a quest icon on his head. he's like "I need people to write essays defending the constitution." so your quest log says "talk to aaron burr." (he says no) "/cheer aaron burr." (he says no) "/rally aaron burr." (he still says no) "repo...

At long last, we defeated Emperor Varis! Kan was his normal self today, so hopefully everything's cool going forward. Fortius was pretty straightforward once we adopted the fan strategy. I died once because right after Fortius, there's a spread attack where we all have designated positions to stan...

artfight 2020 roster

It's almost artfight time! (Remember back in January when we were discussing summer vacation plans and I was like "preferably not in July because of artfight"? It feels like forever ago, those halcyon days when "summer vacation" was actually a possibility.) (Weirdly I don't miss vacation. I mean...

white stone with a cherry on top

June 17 – the upshot is, I miss being able to go get a shake during work. maybe I should buy a blender. a blender would open up SO many options. not just shakes, but fruit smoothies and frappes! June 18 – okay, looking at blenders on Amazon, there seem to be three main kinds: $20 mini blenders.&nb...

the main tank is kind of jank, vol. 2

Guess who didn't show up for raid today it's KANZARIS KELSHEN At this point we should probably start shopping for a new tank. Geez though. I don't mind if he's busy or sick or just has better things to do than slumming with us doing old content, but he should say so instead of telling everyone he'...

the quarantine quarterly report

I just realized I've been in quarantine for three full months now. It's been a quarter of the year since I've gone more than a few steps outside my apartment. My journal writing has slowed down lately, which I guess is only natural. In March and April, there were a lot of new things to talk about:...

varis "yay" galvus

Every week it's something new. This week, everyone said they could make it, and seven of us showed up, but Kan was MIA (and offline on Discord so we couldn't ping him). We sat around for an hour listening to newbie leveling his thaumaturge. Literally doing hunting logs in 2020. That's it, I thought,...

what? WHITE STONE is evolving!

June 2 – Today's subject of discussion: Is the Yeti King the king of the yetis, or is he just a regular king who also happens to be a yeti? HGR drew an analogy to the Skeleton King, who is definitely a regular king (King Leoric). I said that was a good point, but maybe he also became king of the ske...

fruit of the poisonous tree

Some thoughts on the cops. Indirectly brought to you by my twitter feed, which has been screaming ABOLISH ALL POLICE for the past two weeks straight. (I really need to stop spending all day on twitter.) tl;dr I think police departments will always be problematic in ways that are difficult/impossible...

all cats are beautiful

Woke up to a thunderstorm and an internet outage. Apparently, there was a power flicker earlier—not enough to set the clocks blinking, but enough to conk out the router, which is always kind of a princess even at the best of times. Having nothing else to do, I settled down to read the murder trial a...

the main tank is kind of jank

So, as I mentioned, Kan was MIA for raid last Sunday. No explanation, nothing. He was offline during our usual raid time, which is extremely unusual; that guy's dot never goes dark. Tuesday morning, numbers sent out an earlybird roll call for raid. Again, seven check marks for Sunday, no response ...
