Also I've been watching this Hamilton thing on Disney plus and I don't know if anyone knew this but it's pretty good
Although it does seem to take some strong liberties with actual history here and there.
And also it's unfair they gave the best song to King George
King George is a saucy bitch
A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

I'm taking a look at Imoen's stats and uh they don't seem ideal for a Thief? Her Strength is real low, which if I understand correctly means her melee is gonna suck. But aren't Thieves supposed to be all about melee sneak attacks? Can you do ranged sneak attacks?
Her Intelligence is actually a very decent 17, which means she might actually be a good Mage? Should I dual class her? If so what, is the ideal level to do that?
whoever decided that a smoke detector with a low battery needs to chirp every 60 sec is a dumb dick
If they didn't have this feature I think that their batteries would be replaced approximately never and people would die in fires
every minute is redic
it's like stupid bodily systems that really want you to know about this injury! hey what about this injury!
I fuckin got it, message received, thank you
Once got in an epic fight with our duplex neighbor over this. Turns out there was a fucking smoke detector in a crawlspace between our apartments.

I'm playing Breath of the Wild again, after having gotten not that far my first time, put it down, and never come back to it. Why did I do that? I was probably depressed and anhedonic or something like that; this game is great. So it's nice coming back to it.
I am doing my best to practice non-attachment to weapons and not fret about durability. And, when I turn my spirit sideways just right, I can kind of appreciate what people said about how "well actually durability was brilliant, and it gels perfectly with the 'flow' of the experience." But even in my most accommodating moments, I'm like, okay, fine, whatever, break my weapons Nintendo daddy, but couldn't you have given me at least a few more slots? There's a fairly large set of weapons I want to have on me at all times because you gave them important noncombat functionalities--I want a sledgehammer for sledgehammering, an axe for felling trees, a torch for torching, and I'm definitely keeping this korok leaf that I only ever found one drop of, which makes wind, because I'm not gonna be pantsless when I get to the wind puzzle!!
Anyway I functionally only have one or two actual slots for fighting weapons, which ends up being a good weapon and a trash weapon, and it's a bummer because I can't really use and appreciate the full variety of situational weapons and fighting styles the game throws at you.

You don't need to hold on to the leaf. They're common. And you'll get more weapon slots as the game goes on.

You do eventually get a ton of weapon slots in BotW. The sledge is the only thing worth keeping handy so you can get minerals easily. Plus it's also a decent weapon.

Breath of the Wild is less a video game and more an elaborate test to see if you have any major character defects.

I did notice that if you need an axe or a torch, they will usually give you an axe or a torch. If you see an axe or a torch lying around, this is a good clue that it's axe/torchin' time.
Maria Bamford's husband is pretty good in this Eurovision movie though.

I decided to watch Hamilton instead of Dune when I saw that I'd need to rent Dune.
I'm at the Intermission right now.
Holy fuck.
Like. I knew it was good. I had listened to songs here and there, and you can't be in America in this decade without hearing about it. I'd listened to the whole sountrack through a couple times, usually while working.
But to sit down.. to focus on the performances... to watch the masterful use of the spinning stage... To connect the dots of why Hamilton's so afraid of his time running out...
Are there mods that make the inventory less FUCKING INFURIATING?
Because that's probably the biggest QOL problem I have with the game.
BOTW?
Path of Exile?
Deus Ex?
You gotta be more specific here, lots of shitty inventory systems!

Man I hope they unfuck POE2 inventory and just charge for it straight
Some days Blue wonders why anyone ever bothered making numbers so small; other days she supposes even infinity needs to start somewhere.

Also put a real fucking auction system in with buyouts
I'm so goddamn irritated I hit a wall at maps and it wasn't even like I could clear slowly and continue to play while I upgraded my gear, it just Was Not Happening and I need to replace everything but my weapons before I go on
in HC you die, which solves the problem, and I had never had the experience in SC before

1.) "There's nothing to do the game is too open" - lacking initiative, lacking sense of wonder
2.) "The world is empty" - blunted sense of beauty, deficient spatial aesthetic appreciation, unimaginative
3.) "The weapons break too fast! I want my weapons forever" - Obsessed with control, inflexible, hoarder
4.) "There's not enough big dungeons" - ok this is actually true

The smoke detector annoys you to save you
It’s not the hero you want but the hero you need
if it had a 24hour snooze that was one use per year it would solve both problems

Also, something I'm not clear on: do consumables/gatherables in BotW ever repopulate? So far I haven't noticed them repopulating, and I can see why an exploration game might not have them repopulate, but even so it's kind of harsh

I feel like Will Farrel is a little too not funny for comedy
I laughed a couple of times, but overall it wasn't a very good movie
tonight we will watch hamilton?!
Eh. He was too old for that comedy. Like, he was notably out of place.
Which I guess was part of the joke, but Sigrid (looked) like half his age.
Well, there's always fire...
