Best chill weather: FFXIV

Turn off the music and sit in a zone listening to the rain and thunder while talking to friends. A+.

This game has excellent ambient sounds. I turn the music off often and just listen. Sometimes it’s fun to just wander or find a little nook to craft in nature.

I appreciate that.

I mean, I’m not offended or anything. But I just don’t have any NEED to see that stuff when I’m just checking to see what people are talking about.

And that, to me, is fine. People can be furries or like furries. I’m OK with that.

On Bluesky, however, there is/was a ton of furry content being posted, and not just drawings or simple photos. I sadly know what a furry, wolf penis looks like by just scrolling through the app. So the moderation lists are great.

I honestly don’t see a lot of furry stuff here in my feed or server. Or even in All when I browse that from time to time.

The gods do not want this dude to play a full season.

Hopefully this link shared correctly, but I found that furries are all over the place there. And while I don’t care that they want to be furries, I don’t really want to see it all over.

Anyway, this moderation list has helped a lot in filtering out a lot of that type of post and has made my experience a lot better.

It’s a scary looking link, but I promise I just hit the share button from the app. This list is called “Ultimate Furry Mute”

Edit: and then this one is the same idea, just a different moderation list

Tight.

Because it’s delicious.

We’ll get photos of him in his suit holding a fry basket, and the dupes will say he’s “just like us.”

I bought my car at the end of 2018, and I get flyers in the mail maybe twice a month from the dealership trying to get me to “upgrade.” Since I work from home I barely put miles on it.

I’m fortunate in that I have paid it off, and the flyer is like, “We see you have paid off your car loan, we can get you into a new car for $300/m!” Yeah no. That’s not the deal they think it is.

When cars that should cost $20-30,000 now cost $40-60,000, that’ll happen.

I know in some cities Walgreens and CVS are maybe not terrible stores because they are close and you can walk there and pick up maybe a few groceries on the way back from work.

But in a more sprawling city where you have to drive everywhere, I’ve never once opted to buy anything from Walgreens over another store simply because the prices there are outrageous. I only go to my closest Walgreens for vaccinations.

Plus the stores (both Walgreens and CVS) often are kinda messy as hell. And I don’t even blame the workers that much. It seems like at any given time there’s MAYBE one to two people working there outside of the pharmacy.

It’s basically a high priced Dollar Store.

“Biden, wearing a hotdog costume, told reporters, ‘We are all just trying to figure out who keeps arming Israel.’”

Well, MS did at one point say Windows 10 would be the last windows and they’d just keep updating it.

Remember everyone, “Natural Gas” is just methane.

How do we get back to #MNSA?*

This is the USA, someone with a loaded gun in their car is near anything all the time.

We should take lots of lessons from Europe, honestly.

I’m sorry, but this is a logic-free zone.

Where are these assholes getting all these ideas about “weather weapons?” Oh, wait…

Trump Kept Asking if China Was Shooting Us With a ‘Hurricane Gun’

Near the beginning of Donald Trump’s time in office, the then-president had a pressing question for his national-security aides and administration officials: Does China have the secret technology — a weapon, even — to create large, man-made hurricanes and then launch them at the United States? And if so, would this constitute an act of war by a foreign power, and could the U.S. retaliate militarily? Then-President Trump repeatedly asked about this, according to two former senior administration officials and a third person briefed on the matter.

“It was almost too stupid for words,” said a former Trump official intimately familiar with the then-sitting president’s inquiry. “I did not get the sense he was joking at all.”
