i am tempted to purchase an unreasonable amount of aventurine themed poker chips in order to use them as regular poker chips

unfortunately aventurine themed poker chips are significantly more expensive than regular poker chips that come in a box

but it would be really fun to play poker with only aventurine themed chips

with the approaching end of a year and the oncoming 2.7 update rumors of another free 5 star have been floating around, this time stating that we're going to get a standard self selector and a ten pull, but i think it would be funnier if we got a free sunday instead

obviously it wouldn't happen but could you imagine

ratio being free made sense as he thinks education (and therefore himself) should be freely accessible to everyone

but sunday (the one that we know as of 2.6) would give himself out in order to make everyone see his point or to make sure that everyone follows his standard of order

and they would be welcomed home by the trailblazer and immediately notice each other and get absolutely pissed at the other's presence

they stand at near opposite ends of the same scale on how the view humanity where ratio is painfully optimistic and sunday is painfully pessimistic

it would be so funny if they met

I would really like to make cool art but tragically my artistic capabilities are not up to the same standard as the media I consume. in order to remedy this feeling I will continue to create absolutely nothing

wouldn't it be so interesting if ratio was a doctor of chaos

i think they share many similarities in their worldview and ratio would probably agree with the doctors

the doctors of chaos strive to achieve an impossible goal, to prove that there is a meaning in spite of, well, everything

and ratio has a similarly impossible goal, to cure the entire universe of its ignorance within his limited lifetime

in the face of the impossible they both carry on, motivated purely by the self and the ambition that they have, because even if they die their thoughts will survive and the mission will be continued, and it will succeed no matter how long it takes

ratio and the doctors of chaos both represent the indomitable human spirit to me, a sort of idealistic optimism

i hope ratio reruns soon.

however another point about sunday is that as it stands he's a bit weak. so if mihoyo sees this post buff sunday buff sunday buff sunday

the numbers do seem a little low, and i have concerns that sunday will keep his usefulness like how sparkle has gotten less common outside of extremely skill point heavy teams (specifically dhil and qingque). as we step into 3.0 i find it strange that sunday's e1 is pretty much the same as robin and ruan mei's, and isn't even as good as robin's (she gives 24% res pen to all allies while sunday gives 20% to 1), so hopefully that will be changed significantly, otherwise it kind of just feels like a useless eidolon.

many 5 star characters do have somewhat useless eidolons, but throughout 2.0 we've seen a trend of the eidolons becoming more interesting and better suited to the character's mechanics, like jiaoqiu's e6 offering 3% res reduction per stack of his debuff, instead of something basic like jing yuan gets a 20% dmg increase on his attacks for 2 turns after lightning lord takes action.

i hope sunday's eidolons get a little more interesting, but if he's shipped out like this then i guess it'll work too, anything is better than the unreachable side. numbers could be higher though. mihoyo are you listening

it's been a while since i talked about star rail seriously on this account

2.6 is upon us and sunday is on the horizon. and he does support jing yuan. i believe some time ago while we were still in the midst of the grand penacony arc there were leaks saying that sunday would support a 1.0 character, and speculation that it could be jing yuan. but i didn't want to get my hopes up too high and have it turn out to be another character's support.

however, with the release of the test servers for 2.7, it is safe to say that sunday will be supporting jing yuan, to the point where jing yuan will be a character in sunday's trial run, and as someone who spent over a hundred days saving up 370 pulls for jing yuan, well i have to get everyone who supports him. i'll be pulling for sunday.

and after watching some demos from the test servers with v0 sunday i am fully convinced. 10 lightning lord turns in one cycle? basic attack jing yuan?? sunday ultimg on robin and advancing the whole team??? bronya advancing sunday advancing jing yuan???? not only will these new teams be good for jing yuan, they're also going to be so incredibly fun to play with. i can't wait to see what happens when they all get the wind set and there's actions on actions on actions. turn based game? no. jing yuan based game.

i am not one who strives to follow the meta (as seen from my jing yuan) nor one who often completes the moc with full stars (also because of my jing yuan) but it's very exciting to see such an upgrade for my favorite nft, and even more exciting to think about more possibly broken team comps.

even though we currently only have v0 sunday and as a male character he is very likely to face the jiaoqiu treatment of getting continually nerfed until his final release, i still have high hopes for what he will bring to my stagnating jing yuan team. and also for what will come in 3.0 i guess but that's another matter.

2.7 is going to be so much fun

kunnu dot com is alive. and not dead.

oh how i have missed you kunnu dot com, the best and only site i have ever used to read webnovels in chinese

i've been meaning to reread mdzs for the longest while now, but every time i've tried to find a site it just didn't feel right. but kunnu is back alongside its adult ads that make it so you can't open the site in public and the uncensored versions of authors' original chapters and the lack of a login or app download wall

ok the ads are a little more annoying than i remember, or maybe i just have a larger phone now so it takes up more space in my field of vision. should work fine on laptop with ublock though. but still, kunnu is back, and i can finally reread mdzs once i decide that i want to not function for the next day

kunnu (:

actually act 5 is amazing and svt beats are great. dreams don't stop single-handedly changed my entire perception.

ok mostly i was just bad at the game and sad that i was bad so i didn't like act 2 very much, and when i started act 5 like a whole year after it came out and also not playing any rhythm doctor the entire time, i did not get the freeze beat mechanic at all.

and then a couple months later i decide to try it again and what do you know it clicks and then i play through the rest of the levels and then i get to 5-x and it is so good. the rest of the game was already 10/10 quality and then act 5 comes in and says watch this.

if you're reading this you should go play rhythm doctor. it's a great game.

also i went and downloaded unbeatable white label after replaying worn out tapes for the thousandth time and that is an equally good game which releases next year (!) so that is something to look forward to

what do you mean by concerningly addicted. i am perfectly normal about honkai star rail

me and my goobers, you may recognize some of them... and i guess the last guy

every time i try to write ratio interacting with aventurine it somehow turns into wrightworth. i have no idea how it happens. aventurine isn't that similar to phoenix. he's actually completely different, but it's just ratio who is single-handedly forcing their dynamic into an echo of narumitsu that is so similar that i can only watch on in horror as the urge to purchase and play the ace attorney investigations collection rears its head again

anyway i suddenly want to actually play through all of aai1 and the second half of aai2, which i started but did not finish

[aoxizu]

Okay I love that Feixiao trailer so much😭😭😭😭

pokemon shield. aventurine

pokemon gun. topaz

logically then pokemon sword must be the metaphorical sword of truth and justice. veritas

you know the fall of rationality memory bubble, the one about the laurel wreath galaxy and the final act of its former leader aurelius

there's this quote from it: "Your field of vision is split by long, narrow, and cold iron bars. Based on what you feel with your fingertips, you confirm that the iron bars are a part of an exquisite cage — the crown that exclusively belongs to the Philosopher King, the head of the Laurel Wreath Galaxy."

in other words aurelius is wearing a cage as a hat

you know who else wears a cage as a hat

micolash, host of the nightmare, the annoying puzzle boss, and the some say kosm guy

2.3 spoilers ahead: our next stop on the journey (after the xianzhou detour) will be amphoreus, which is quite obviously greek themed, and the laurel wreath galaxy is also greek themed, and there's a Guy who is also greek themed

the 2 main sources of lore about the laurel wreath galaxy are the memory bubble fall of logic and the curio ratio nality's fall (introduced in 1.6 with gold and gears, much like a certain free character)

amphoreus is said to be quite chaotic with 3 paths present, and the laurel wreath galaxy was similarly messy due to the civil war between organic and inorganic life, and there are likely several paths that crossed there with the elation's followers who interjected and the philosopher's union that was already present

if amphoreus, the laurel wreath galaxy, and the Guy who shares similar theming are in fact all connected, then maybe in our next big update we'll get to visit amphoreus and see something like this

and when we meet ratio there, we'll get to see this

did i do all of this just to put ratio in a mensis cage? yes

but also i really hope that these three are actually connected and that ratio keeps showing up everywhere just because

this is a little far-fetched even for me but i think it's a possibility

not the bloodborne part but the visiting ratio's home planet part

perhaps i am simply going mad with insight
