In lieu of me trying to explain High Concept, have the following visual journal:
Just realized that my wolf Black Exocleaver is nearly six years old. It’s about time for her to choose a successor. We’ve been on this tier for that long, huh? In any case, last Saturday, we cleared Hephaistos 1 (woo!!) and got to behold Hephaistos’ final form. “He’s so cool…” said HGR. Then, on Sun...
Taking the train to visit my parents after work, just like old times. This is my first Amtrak trip since the start of the pandemic. I was wondering if things would be different due to covid (reduced service, increased security) but everything was as I left it. Same trains running at the same times, ...
I hopped onto discord just in time to hear: “they can shove that lore up their asses. my god.” it sounds like HGR is having a fun time playing Elden Ring. oh, apparently the boss (the putrid avatar) gave him scarlet rot. it sprays scarlet goop, which, to HGR, is indistinguishable from the color of t...
HGR and I bet on the outcome of this week’s raid. Specifically, I bet we would clear (we were “pretty close” last week); he bet we wouldn’t. numbers, after Sunday’s session: “Well, you know, I feel like we got a little better at the mechanics today.” HGR won the bet. I bought him a pizza. Re-reading...
hephaistos-without-context.txt === meisnewbie: what is HGR’s favorite pixar film meisnewbie: wall-e luis: UP numbers: a bug’s life === meisnewbie: we both had a rear positional at the same time numbers: hot === The good news is that we’re done with Agdistis reclears forever. Dante got his brin...
“We’re gonna beat P8S1 this weekend,” said numbers on Wednesday as he sent out the weekly call for raid. Attached was a baseball pic. Dante said, “For those who do not understand the sports ball reference, numbers has just ‘called his shot’ before going up to bat, aka claimed he will knock it out of...
Hephaistos time! I’m liking his theme song. It’s got big La Mulana vibes. It’s not Scream-tier, but few songs are. But first, we’re still in reclear purgatory. The good news is that we’re officially done with Hegemone reclears. The bad news: Agdistis reclears. On Saturday, numbers put up a party fin...
“you’re going to be as good as your corpse at not killing the party, probably” – high praise from HGR After griefing the party for a couple weeks (due to visiting my brother one weekend and having a broken computer the next), I got my new computer up and running Friday night, so we’re BACK TO RAID. ...
Every time a new phone list is distributed at work I’m mildly paranoid I won’t be on it, i.e. I got fired and nobody bothered to tell me. Whew, I’m still here.
at some point I dropped the habit of publicly posting these, but I'm bringing it back. lots of stuff to be grateful for: notn final egg tally: 65. gonna make bank.also it’s very chill post-notn not bonding with all unawakened familiars and just doing a limited rosterwe love new year’s day (observed...
It started snowing Saturday morning and continued all day. We went out midmorning for a pokemon gym run (I suggested walking, but no one else was up for it) and the roads were a mess. Mom skidded gingerly around every corner. All the local drivers were zipping by like it was a clear summer day, and ...
