FFXIV my beloved :)

Something something isn’t it crazy how rui was ostracized and villainized by his peers for so long but he always kept a deep love for humanity and people as a whole. Isn’t it insane how instead of starting to hate people and becoming bitter he just put the blame on himself for being too weird. Isn’t it bonkers.

Agents are required to leave their weapons with security upon entrance to the ICA headquarters. It's always a special day when 47 comes back.

First he leaves his pistol. The silverballers are handled with care, because people who mishandle them go missing. The fiber wire is handled with equal consideration.

Next is poisons: ICA grade vial of lethal poison. Rat poison. Some sleeping pills he found in a hotel room. Rat poison. A rare South American poison dart frog. Rat poison.

The explosives are pretty limited, as 47 prefers to be quiet. A remote-detonated explosive. Proximity exploding rubber duck (disarmed). A vial of nitroglycerin.

The miscellaneous category, however, is what the security team is excited for most - the random assortment of objects 47 picked up along the way. Anything can be a weapon, after all, when it's in the right hands.

47 leaves a wrench, a crowbar, a hammer, and a screwdriver. Then there's a machete, a can of soup, a bronze cowboy bust. Another screwdriver, a fish (?), a hatchet, a letter opener. Another crowbar.

Then a lead pipe, a pool ball, a brick. Another bust, this one made of plaster. A kitchen knife. A pair of scissors.

47 pauses, taking another inventory of his pockets, before adding a can of soda, another can (this time it's expired spaghetti sauce)...

... and a third crowbar.

Hey. don’t cry. Around 100 Star Trek games. most of them average ok?

I played this mission (and subsequently finished HITMAN 3 even though it was very late because I simply couldn’t go to bed after the “Necessary Evil�� cutscene) three years ago today.

On Valentine’s Day.

It was a coincidence, but because I’ve been obsessed with whatever is going on between these two (i.e. an ineffable and seemingly unbreakable bond that is neither really romance nor friendship but is so strong and special it feels to me like it transcends the concept of love itself) for years, I thought it was a funny one.

i don't want to live in a brown, dead world. i love our National Parks, federal forests, & other protected, public lands. i love how green it is & having a connection to the natural world.

Project 2025 will make sure we get a brown, dead world. they don't "believe" in climate change & will gut the EPA & privatize & gut NOAA (you know how we can just, look at weather info for free? lol it won't be anymore!). they want to sell public lands & strip them of their numerous resources. their solution for the ever increasing dangerous forest fires is to CUT ALL OF OUR TREES DOWN. they also want to drill MORE specifically in the fragile Arctic.

trump said climate change will give us MORE land even with all the evidence that the ocean level is rising. he's a dangerous moron.

certain people voting or not voting depending on their "principles" don't usually seem to want to talk about how climate change is dangerous to ALL humans & not just Americans. we're at a dangerous point. if they choose to make things worse we will never be able to recover. they are actively wanting to kill ALL of us. this election is not normal. do YOU want to live in a brown, dead world? because if you're fighting to make sure Harris loses, then you're merely advocating for these greedy psychopaths. your "principles" when looked at from this perspective just makes it sound like your ego. if we don't have a planet we can live on then no one will be saved.

don't stop talking about Project 2025 or Agenda 47. they're the same plan & trump's real policies. please check your registration status often. encourage friends & family. make a day of it to vote early if possible! if you're not registered on election day, request an absentee ballot! we can do this. vote blue! ladies, especially white ladies who are even considering this: you can do this. your vote is private. stay safe. i believe in us 💙

opinion on the SU-47?

I assume we're talking about the Russian fighter jet designed by Sukhoi in the 90s and then discontinued in the 2000s, right?

This guy, right?

I'm by no means a plane expert, nor am I necessarily a fighter jet history buff. Honestly, I have no idea what I'm talking about. I only really have opinions about Canada's fighter jets, or rather their complete lack of them because of the Canadian Government's decisions made in the 1950s (I mourn the loss of the Avro Arrow... sigh). And even those opinions aren't about the actual jet itself, but more about the repercussions it's had on Canada's military decisions and their rocky relationship with companies like Boeing and such and the poor position it's put Canada in recently (relying on the US to buy jets from etc. etc.) But you've made me curious, anon... what are my opinions on the SU-47?

As a disclaimer, I don't have any real understanding of how fighter jets work and stuff like that, so a lot of the technical aspect of planes and such just fly over my head. I struggle with numbers and acronyms in general, so one can imagine the absolute hell that is learning and keeping track of planes and fighter jets. So I can't give you my opinion about the technological aspects and advancements the SU-47 seemed to have.

But, I skimmed the Wikipedia page and I watched a YouTube video about it. I didn't understand much to be honest (sorry). But, I will say that the forward facing wings is a really interesting and futuristic looking. Along with it's other advantages such as decreased drag and improved maneuverability because of the front facing wing. It's really interesting how a switch in wing direction can create a more aerodynamic jet (at least, I'm pretty sure what the video said...) And from my understanding, the SU-47 is a pillar for which fighter jets since then have been built upon and that's really cool. It would have been interesting to see what the SU-47 could have really done if the necessary technology was available at the time to make it work, but alas, it is now shelved for the rest of history. And I think that's what makes the jet cool to me. Like all the what if questions: what if they had the right engines? What if the Russian government found enough funding to keep the project going? What would have changed? I don't know, I think that's what I found the most interesting about the SU-47.

Overall, I think it's a really cool jet, with the way that it looks and how interesting the history is behind it. It's always interesting to learn about fighter jets other than the United States' jets and how jets like the SU-47 provide further insight to the Cold War and such. But I guess that's really all I have to say... I hope I satisfied you with my answer, anon!

me, hyped up about Star Trek Enterprise again after finishing my beloved season 3: I wonder if there are any posts about it on tumblr *searches*

me, twenty minutes later, closing the results: ah. I see. it has suffered from fandomification, where fans threw out canon and replaced it with fanon. one hundred and thirty seven polls asking "what was your first/favorite star trek" and it is at the bottom of every one. this between 14million other posts about every other star trek series. some funny memes thrown in for ~flavor~. great. wonderful. I'll just go back into my happy little corner with my parents who unironically enjoy the show with me then.

Where have I been for the last day?

Two words: Dwarf Fortress

Replaying Pokemon Colosseum and holy fuck this game is bullshit

[foxgirltail]

Just have lancer (20), thaumaturge (25), and blue mage (24) to get to level 30 in ffxiv and then I'll have every job at level 30 or above!

All the DA talk is making me miss The Boy, the Magical Sweetheart Son, and my Magical Dumpster Fire Son.

The new hair physics would make Rolfe go

because he was stuck with the mullet being the only hair that looked good on him and then had to spend the entire time convincing people he had amazing hair that he was 200% vain about.

I saw something about knives being magical focus and couldn’t help but think about Gavin going around Kirkwall with a dagger like his sister (because Vivian would have given him one of hers) but then attaching it onto a stave anyway just to be a Little Shit with “no, mister Templar sir. This is my long range pointy stick I stab people with while keeping the city streets safe at night. No magic involved, none whatsoever.”

And I just miss Vincent, plain and simple. I love that guy.
