Well, there are wallabies on the isle of man. Ah, the bounty of Empire. 
In somewhat related news, red squirrels are making a comeback and inching grey squirrels out. The squirrel reconquista is kicking off.

not any longer. weāre deploying the yellow squirrels
Theyāre being spotted in Nottinghamshire and from range itās likely too much to just be random escapees.
Peeve of the day - work. Today is the first time in 20 years I had to walk out the staff room because if I hadnāt itād have been a very unprofessional moment.
Dimwit I , fortunately, donāt directly work with started going in about how he disagreed with school policy and started talking about us all backing him up. Not that unusual, it happens.
Naturally he then had to jump down the āitās all gone very wokeā path. Apperantly understanding and working towards a solution vs just battering the child down is āwokeā now.
Honestly heās entitled to his very stupid view but using what I said to try and back it up is not a line Iām ok with. So now he has a formal complaint against him (heās done other nonsense I previously let slide and is generally just a negative influence) and I eat with more sensible people. The children mostly.

How these people actually function as human beings quite frankly terrifies me. What is even more concerning is these people are allowed within a 100 foot radius of a child. An overwhelming number of issues children develop and then retain as adults are as the result of a malign and stupid clods like him.

I keep misplacing things. Keyrings, tools, documents. Itās frustrating but not actively detrimental. Yet. Things can always get a lot worse!
Itāll just be a ball and chain holding you down if you win. I say that as someone who once owned both a large house and a medium house.
I get my housing fix from TESO. Which not only has a more elaborate system and racial themed furniture/houses but also doesnāt remove the house if you take a break for months or even years.

Iāve said it before but iāll say it again
Housing in FFXIV is an entrapment policy, and itās not even intentional I think on the part of the devs. Itās just they designed an incredibly backwards management system of housing.
Yes theyāre apparently changing things to make plots more appealing, something about small plots actually having interior space of a large but this is still 11 years after the game launched 
The fact players have to use third party tools to even get a properly designed home is disgusting. I really hope that Blizzard copies GW2ās housing model over FF14ās. The problem wouldnāt even be as severe if the housing was instanced properly and not divided into open world āwardsā.

Thank you, that ought to help alot when I do get to him. Iāll be playing as ret pally so I can keep myself alive ( even if I do feel squishy as hell in delves sometimes), but once I get the chance to attack him, weāll see how it goes!
Edit: In other newsā¦ until now there is no way to refund artisanās acuity is there?
Long story short, I ended up crafting a blue leatherworking smock for my druid, forgetting I already had oneā¦ goodbye 300 artisanās acuity and one profaned tinderbox 
I left a bowl of mostly eaten pasta on the coffee table.
Wake up this morning, see pasta on the floor, decide Iāll clean it up later but take the bowl into the kitchen.
Finally get up, pasta is gone from the floor.
Good thing youāre cute kitty with your high pitched meow.

Only the highest of meows for you
Trying to plan out what to do while you wait on gatcha banners is so ugh
Fine
More maintenance
Iāll feed my Kuki until her hyperblooms will blot out the sun (and after that we feed Chevi)
How can I get pants worthy of being transformed into a tier piece?! Iām gonna CRY if I donāt get any.
I do have Kuki and used to use her in a hyperbloom team, but I donāt really like how her ability works. Losing HP to activate her health is big lame, even if it canāt down her on its own.
Maybe one day Iāll build a hyperbloom team using the Prinzessin der Verurteilung and Lady Megistus, theyāre fun characters.
