#bc the drama was petty

[oifaaa]

Maybe I'm so obsessed with aita reddit stories bc I missed out on my own chance to find out if I was the ass for the falling out between me and my ex friend back in the first year of uni

trust and believe the chaser gang's unofficial coworker christmas parties went crazy. qiren goes home after an hour, xichen immediately decides this is the perfect time to get hammered, guangyao is babysitting, wen qing is losing her mind a little bit, yu ziyuan is fighting between Wanting To Leave and Wanting To Outdrink Wuxian, huaisang and mingjue show up at some point and wuxian is too drunk to remember it - which he DOES weep about when wen qing tells him the next day. they have the worlds most british karaoke session. the buffet features mini sausage rolls, cocktail sausages, and a beautiful array of picky bits. mr brightside is playing for 50% of the event.

woke up at 1am for the FP1 in Abu Dhabi bc I was excited to see both Leclerc brothers drive only to see the driver dinner lando caption, landos interview about it, max pregnancy announcement, George bringing up 2021 (???) to justify the stewards room, Charles 10 place grid drop for a battery, Williams grid penalty bc they can't hire drivers who don't crash, and Wolffs yapping little terrier comment and Horner following it with "rather be a terrier than a wolf"

i thought i'd prepared for the pettiness but they keep surprising me

[docmerlin]

bluesky is fun bc i blocked someone for having a moderation list called "insane people" and as a result they put me on the list

[akimojo]

I firmly believe locke and celes would've been absolutely perfect if they'd been just a little more toxic

Kitty: Casey and Severide are fighting again.

Boden: *quietly* I told you to leave them alone, stop making them fight with each other.

Kitty:

Kitty: *whispering* I like drama.

"C'mon look at me." Freddie's grabbing Trent by the face. They're both a little too drunk right now. Freddie's a little too handsy because he's worried he really upset the other. "You know I don't know that broad." Freddie's been brushing her off all night. They're out with Trent's friends and Freddie always has a tendency to drink and then catastrophize everything. Like how he secretly thinks Trent's friends hate him. And Fred can get distracted by a little starry eyed praise once in a while. He just has to look at Trent and he's good. "Baby, c'mon." @bloodrodeo

thinking about this girl i barely know who started drama with me for no reason a couple months ago and tried to turn all our mutual friends against me and now she’s mad at another friend for no reason and is being super shady to her and this friend told me “it’s like what happened with you all over again” … yeah funny how that works

Guys I just firsthand witnessed workplace drama unfold in the work group chat and oh my god it got so heated one of the managers had to threaten to disallow messages in the group chat for 24 hours to get it to stop oajdkandnwb it was insane. Can't believe I saw this happen in real time

I know I don’t post a lot about my gacha games on main but the gacha drama right now is so fucking funny I’m going to do a little r/hobbydrama about it

So genshin impact is one of the biggest gacha games on the market right now, mostly because it was one of the first to do an open world exploration thing in a gacha game and it didn’t have to worry about much competition. There’s a lot of critique that it has gotten over game mechanics and things like that, but it fills its niche pretty well, so that mostly stayed critique.

Then came Wuthering waves, a new game developed by a different company that was…very similar to genshin. The combat mechanics worked similarly, it was also an open world, there were even characters that looked very similar to characters in genshin. More than that though, all the things that genshin got critiqued over mechanically, Wuthering waves made a point of incorporating. Though the two companies didn’t outwardly fight (genshins company account even reposted stuff promoing Wuthering waves), the gacha fanbase saw this as a pretty direct challenge, some even referring to Wuthering waves as a genshin killer.

Well, the game dropped about a week ago and didn’t live up to expectations. From my own personal experience, the combat system was genuinely so much fucking fun and there were a lot of minor mechanical things that Wuthering waves did that I loved, but the story didn’t get me quickly enough, so it didn’t stick for me. I was one of the luckier ones though, tons of glitches showed up pretty quickly for most people. They responded by giving pretty generous rewards to make up for it, which did a lot to mitigate the issues, especially because they were trying to gain a reputation as a game that listened to their player base and fixed the issues. Besides, free pulls are free pulls.

One such example is a weapon description was mistranslated in Japanese, leading some players to think it was better than it actually was, which caused a lot of people, especially whales who dropped a lot of money on it, to get really mad. Wuthering Waves responded by giving players some pulls, but then decided to go further and tell people to fill out a form for individual compensation.

They then sent out an email to those affected (which apparently included a subtle threat to ban people’s accounts if they tried to refund money spent) but forgot to hit BCC and so EVERYONES email address got leaked. Very excited to see how this turns out

a helpful salve for feeling like you have failed for not being fully formed by the age of 30 is to hang out with elderly people because they are literally constantly starting new hobbies and making new friends with whom they form insane codependent friendships. half the women in my neighborhood became toxic ARMYs at the age of 65 and now they harass each other into watching mvs and kill each other over biases. you can do this too. you can become a new and more exciting form of unhinged at any age.

Why accuse X of stealing from you?

very interesting that you ask this months later when i haven’t said a word about it since. and “accuse” is a very strong word, but i posted about it because i had a strong feeling X was watching my blog and I wanted them to know i was aware of what they were doing.

i'm SO down bad for durge/wyll where they both are each other's support through trying to be more than their patron's pet

in the uncomfortable situation of having drawn a lot of art of characters that belong to a person that i want nothing to do with anymore. it's frustrating bc a lot of these pieces are also stuff that i'm proud of, skill-wise, but they are essentially tainted now. they will always remind me of who i drew it all for. but i also hate the idea of essentially throwing paintings into a digital fire.
