Tbf if you can go a day in London without seeing someone in costume generally, then you’re probably not actually in London.

You know what pisses me off about the 10.1.7 Kirin Tor storyline? How readily Kalecgos abandons his duties as the Blue Aspect to hang out with the Kirin Tor.

Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Are you going to stay, Kalecgos?
Kalecgos says: The Dragon Isles can endure a little longer without me. We have much work to do.

Considering that Kalecgos resigning from the Council of Six was what led to this mess in the first place, by allowing Xal’atath to pose as Drenden.

I’m not angry at Kalecgos, though. I’m angry at the writers for flip-flopping the characters on a whim with no regard for any kind of long-term motivations or goals.

I mean, I go between Camden and Soho a lot so yes?

Go from Goth to Gay and back again.

It’s been a while since I visited that sort of thing, but if I wasn’t currently having some woes at home ( aswell as my birthday the 15th) I might’ve tried to come say hello, since Utrecht is only a few hour drive from where I live.

That said, hope you’ll enjoy Elfia and Utrecht, Lintian!

So an update to stellaris borked the map generation. I can longer do a 50 empire 4k star map because the silly new civ counter box crashes instead of expanding the way a sensible dev would make it do.

meanwhile the rest of the Dragon Aspects when given the chance to mess with Iridikron’s plans…

So my internet has been absolutely borked for nigh on two weeks now. No amount of calling my service provider or submitting online tickets helped either. Even went and replaced my router to no effect. So I basically gave up after missing the Gilneas tournament and haven’t done any RP asides from coping with Baldur’s Gate 3.

Then yesterday, what should I receive but an email! That my service provider has “discovered irregularities in the provided internet accessibility in my area” and phrasing that generally made them out to be the super sleuths discovering this issue and now resolving it.

I don’t smoke. But I swear, at that moment, I wondered if it might be an idea to start.

(Enjoy the BG3 take on my WoW main - I was coping very well, I swear - for your troubles.)

When mine was having week long issues they didn’t even say anything. It just went back to working one day. No explanation, nothing.

Checked the coming class tuning, Aug gets another 8% damage buff on top of the last time’s 15% buff so I check the Aug discord to see if it’s enough to take them out of the deep deep pit of unviability that they are currently in

They are discussing not talenting Breath of Eons (Aug’s primary cool-down) because of a bug that causes you to do more damage without it

So things are going well

I’ve not played BG3 yet but I did pick up Solasta: Crown of the Magister while it was on sale about a month ago. I finished it yesterday, it was okay.

A little tough, especially with its random encounters at low levels. I read a guide after I’d finished it and according to it I apparently picked the most unoptimized Fighter, Rogue and Wizard subclasses possible.

Everyone would all be happier if they uninstalled their damage meters and parsers
