Alright I’ve been promising a face reveal/Genderbent Ahab cosplay for a while now and I’m finally delivering

I went looking for those Great Lakes whales

I didn’t see any, but I know those motherfuckers are out there (that’s what I’m thinking in that last pic)

I have a question about the jp server pickups, since I really want knight Sebek, but I’m trying to save gems for bloom malleus + the 3rd tsum event that’s gonna show up sooner or later. Iirc, after knight Sebek, the next story update’s pickup had all of the previous story cards (ie cerberus Ortho, general Lilia, and knight Sebek). Is this true, and if it is, did it include a token system like the dorm pickups where you can just do 100 pulls and then buy the specific card you want directly? Because if that is how it works, then I can wait until then and be sure I won’t have to go to 200 for him.

we did indeed get a second chance at those three when 7-7 came out! I'm pretty sure there was not a token system -- though admittedly I don't 100% remember, sorry! 🙇 I took a quick search through some past posts/videos from people who tend to include the gacha and news stuff, but I didn't see any mention of it, so I'm inclined to think there really wasn't one. :( they were all separate pickups with their own pull counts rather than a combined one, if that info helps at all.

speaking as a strict f2p who hoards keys/gems like the lovechild of a dragon and a magpie, given the choice between saving for a story card and a birthday card, I'd go for story -- it does require a lot of patience, but there are way more opportunities to get past birthday cards, both from the anniversary events and the rerun pickups! tsums is a bit harder to say anything on because Eng doesn't follow the same event schedule, but it's a longish event and those pickups let you have a free 10-roll, so I think they're also a bit easier to save up for.

(ALSO speaking of free rolls, starting with the fifth round of birthdays -- the kutsurogi my room ones -- the birthday boy/union jacket/bloom cards have had a separate pickup that you can get two free 10-pulls at by doing missions! I got a bloom Jade from it a couple weeks ago. :D meanwhile general Lilia is the only story card I've ever managed to pull, so...I'm probably kinda biased. whoops.)

STOP: it's not the goddamn year of the dragon yet

Hold on posting your goddamn culturally Christian ass solar new year greetings that clumsily use east Asian lunar new year elements. We gotta do this song and dance every single time because y'all still refuse to do any research. Lunar new year is never on January 1; it is ALWAYS after solar new year. Lunar new year 2024 is on February 10th – save yourself some embarrassment please you're better than this

okay, I'm crowdsourcing advice for a minute, so bear with me and please lend some words if you have any:

I want to get out of the house more. Like, on a regular basis. Weekly, maybe. Preferably, I would like to be interacting with people—the same people—every time, for... like... accountability, but also because I am hoping to put myself out there as the 21st century's most neurotic platonic Casanova. Uh. Making a friend or more out of this would be desirable. But I think if I go out with the intention of making a friend, I will be disappointed.

So. I want to go do something, for that something's own sake. I don't want to go be fake once a week hoping to get a friend out of it.

However, the beautiful state of Iowa is a bit cultureless, and I am too introverted and easily overwhelmed for this world (e.g. going to bars is probably not gonna be my thing). So.... I guess.... any suggestions? opinions? thoughts on making friends in general, or finding good activities as an introverted adult, in general?

oh yeah, also: I am poor. that's a factor. so. signing up a class or similar is not a great option right now.

what the heck, I'll add a silly poll for fun:

reverse hot take: death note

this is an interesting ask to me because i feel like whenever i have brought death note up its been with fondness so i'm not 100% sure what to say here.

i think every death note adaptation that's been made has been bringing something to the table. thats my reverse hot take that might loop back around to just being a hot take again. i havent seen every death note adaptation. but the anime? classic. the live action drama? perhaps the Best death note. the musical? bangs. the netflix movie? we can't pretend casting willem dafoe as ryuk didn't rule. and it was a really fun take on L.

If you're trying a new way of doing things (focusing or to-do lists or self-care or what have you), remember: it's not something you can fail.

If the method doesn't work? That just means that method isn't the right one for you. It's not a failure on your part.

If it works for a while, or only works sometimes? Also not a failure on your part! Take that information and use it when you try a new method, or use that method when it applies.

If it works for you, but other people don't think you should need it? Who cares what they think? Nobody is going to have the same route to success. Trying to push yourself to do things to a "normal" standard is not going to help anything, and might even hurt.

Do things that work for you, and don't see it as a failure. It's a process of experimentation, and eventually, you'll find ways to reach your goals that work for you. Get creative, think out of the box, and try something new.

You can do it. I believe in you.
