I'm beginning to think it was the Greater Will's decision to remove Death from the circle of Life, that Goldmask was referring to the Greater Will when he called the gods "fickle." His faith "wavered" when considering Radagon, who I consider to be akin to St. Trina in origin.

anybutt that's enough worry-warting, I'm stone cold sober and I have a hankering for straight MSG at 11:30 PM so I guess I'll take care of that.

when Biden gets hit with the 25th after he wins (if he makes it that long) there will be a lot of righteous anger on the left and a lot of deceitful disdain from the Fetterman center, the Centerman as I like to call it. how Harris reacts to this after she takes office will decide a lot 😶😶

Full credit to my good friend Jonathan who remembered that our one reference to Marika's origins was in the Numen race and the Black Knife Assassins of the Eternal City. With the added info from the DLC, I think we at least have motivations that lead to answers. What a good catch.

spending my week replaying all of Elden Ring very slowly and rewriting this Python assignment on basics of data frame structure with pandas to actually utilize Inheritance to its fullest extent and I might add pressing my naked body against the hot pavement to see how long I can endure

The fact that Thorn Sorceries are directly linked to another class of Sorcery in the DLC is intriguing, it doesn't necessarily clear this up but there is a way in which it could. It would depend on what happened to the summit of Enir-Elim, why it is now covered in ash.

This image comes back into consideration, then. Wolves are servants of the Moon, an aspect of life previously at odds with the Erdtree as its relationship with the Sun was likely pivotal to the natural Order.

Without giving away too much, I think she was shown the Greater Will's plan, shown that it must involve her in this way, and it filled her with determination to alter the course of that plan.

After her eyes were crushed they were replaced with the Soreseals to see what the Greater Will wished to show her. I don't think she was happy with what she saw, but her position was compromised. She was chosen, and could only act as such. This must be the birth of her Grand Design.

To act in accordance with your goals is Ambition. To act in accordance with your own free will is Dignity. To act out in any way is Sin. Marika acted out of fear and loss until she shed herself of everything. She acts in the hope that Ambition will grant Dignity.

now that I'm not sober, I can freely say this is what happens when you forget the ripple effect of giving up on yourself - you aren't just affecting your own life. I am isolated to all but my family and if I abandoned them too, their hope would surely fade - how could it not? I must be the scout.

(me drinking) You think you understand the machinations but you're projecting your own sensibilities onto the world - sensibilities steeped in the toxicity of your ego. You aren't locked in, you're locked WITHIN yourself, you're trapped, you are a prisoner to your sense of self. (me sober) Boobs :)

As people debate the affordability of Universal Basic Income, they seldom question the cost of not implementing it. The ripple effects of chronic widespread financial insecurity touch every aspect of our society and democracy. Let's crunch the numbers on UBI vs. the status quo.

the Elden Ring DLC follows this overarching theme of familial abandonment that is really hurting me badly. This is what happens when you feel left out, left alone, given up on. This is what happens when you choose abandonment, when you give in to solitude.

as impressed as I am with the mechanics of the final fight (which I might not be able to beat for WEEKS), the content is actually how do I say this? who it is makes logical sense but that logic is not present in the presentation. it implies either someone is lying or the devs just went 🤷🏻‍♂️

me: "complacency is the facet of the liberal agenda that can and will allow fascism to take hold, because people do want to be complacent." also me: "I would much prefer the revolution under Biden than under Trump, as politically hedonistic as the DNC really are" also me: "Count Ymir is Elon Musk"

finally got to an optional area that I think could have used more content. It feels very secretive, like anything could be hidden in any crevice, but it really is just a big stealth section.

but often just in subtle nods, mentions to things you may have paid attention to. it's intense. I've had a couple huge potential breakthroughs. I may be wrong about someone. I may be more right than I can understand right now, I'm unsure.

No spoilers in this post, but the narrative choices of the DLC are quite a lot more powerful than the base game btw; I'm impressed by how few bosses I've encountered for how much story progress I've made, and not for lack of trying. Not much else I can say but speculation is available everywhere.

Not excessively important to the quality of the game, but at least indicative of the state the dev team was in and why Conker's turned into a hodgepodge of genre parodies. Y'know what is important to the quality of the game? Platform geometry - it broke

Stories of the development cycle also indicate Rareware was, for whatever reason, on a downward spiral that made their acquisition by Microsoft seem somewhat inevitable - teams split off and competing with one another for attention from a parent company who seemingly abandoned them.

I want exactly one hot take to blow up and I want that take to be thus: Of all the majority of Nintendo 64 games aged poorly, Conker’s Bad Fur Day never deserved to be considered of any quality nor treated with any reverence, not in the moment nor in retrospect. It was what I CALL a bowel movement
