  • Funny, I have a stray cat that comes by who has that description. We call him Waggles.

    Here he is, pondering what a tortured life he would live should he choose to be a house cat, forced to see life outside through the iron bars of the window frame, on account of being too inconvenienced by going through the cat door. He decided such a life was too much to bare, so he went to the front door and demanded I let him out.

    He hates cat doors, but he’ll end up coming in the house on his own maybe once a month or so.









  • Just wanna throw it out there that the Monster Hunter series is a perfect example of in game free content becoming microtransactions in just a few years.

    Old MH games had all cosmetic items as free event quest rewards, where you’d get a unique and fun battle to play, and a cosmetic reward for winning. No paid DLC even available to buy. MH Rise (the newest game) has 221 paid cosmetic items listed on their site. That number is not including bundles, soundtracks, character edit vouchers, or the expansion (Sunbreak) itself.

    $60 game, $40 expansion, and 200+ paid cosmetics that would instead be free in earlier games in the series.


  • Yeah it’s apparently a common first choice for bipolar (which is overly diagnosed). It made me gain a ton of weight, and then my doc was exclusively concerned about my weight from that point on, until I stopped going to him.

    Before that though, I was just like “I gained the weight because of a side effect from a med you gave me, for a condition that I don’t have. The weight is an issue that will be fixed if we look at the actual problem here, doc.”

    Ugh.
