something terrible happened to me.
btw I hope you're feeling well
something terrible happened to me– I forgot to give Ogden his sign back in Diablo -_-
I returned to… what's the demon's name… Snot-something…
Snotspill. Disgusting. Once you get Ogden's Sign, you can either bring it to Ogden or you can bring it to Snotspill. And Snotspill's right there and my brain is on autopilot, so
And you can't get the sign back even if(when) you kill him.
Now, no Harlequin Crest for me. It's a pretty decent helmet, so that's a bummer.
That's not so shabby! Wait a minute, though, what is that -3 Armor Class? Is that the "harlequin" part? Well, it'd still at least be better than the cap I'm wearing. I think. What do you think? Say I have a +3 armor cap. Obviously this is way, way worse there, BUT how about adding +2 to Vitality? and -1 damage? How's that for a trade-off? Mmmmm… No, you know what? I don't NEED +2 to my attributes. That sounds way better than it actually is. Its usefulness is immediately cut in half just by the class system. What am, a Warrior, gonna do with +2 Dex and +2 Magic? Exactly. No wonder it was a Sorcerer who left this behind at Ogden's. It wasn't even good enough for him, and it'd benefit him more since it’s adding to both Magic—where points generally matter more since they can result in being able to cast new spells—and also your Mana pool.
It doesn't matter either way. I have to just keep moving. I know there's better helms deeper down, I remember them.
I'm really not looking forward to the lava portion though. And I'm looking even less forward to the fucking succcubi spamming ranged magic at me. I remember a–I think it was a good shield that gave lightning resist, that really saved me a lot of trouble.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
There is something really funny about a Warrior chasing down dozens and dozens of succubusses… succubi? People forget man, the Warrior is a BEAST
musicRevelation: The Infinite Beauty of Oneness is a GOOD SONG.
GOODBYEEEEE FOR NOOOOWWW AND GOOD LUCK SO LOOONG FAREWEEEeEELL TAKE CARE AND DON'T LOOK BACK
it's just a goooooood song, man
My Father’s House, too. The entire album I’ve heard so far is pretty good.
I listened to exactly-one of one of their earlier songs… what was it called… Two Days in Paris with Frank Sinatra? No, it was “A Night With Frank Sinatra, Two Tabs of Mescaline, and a French Tranny”
I didn’t love it. It wasn’t terrible, but I didn’t really like it. It’s about as good as the title sounds imo. It’s from like 10 years ago I think. It’s wild how bands change, how people change. Pain of Salvation’s older stuff is waaaay better than their newer stuff. Aaaaand… Destroy the Runner only has 1 album that I actually like, and it’s one of my favorite albums of any band.
I guess Frank Sinatra at least is timeless.
ChristpostingJust briefly.
I saw Jay Dyer had a debate with Matt Dillahunty some years ago. Matt Dillahunty is who made me an atheist when I was younger, so this was something. I couldn't bring myself to actually watch it(do not give me shit, I literally listened to Matt for years, I already know everything he has to say and I'm not obligated to listen to the same arguments for my entire life), but judging from the comments, it was very respectful, and went better for Jay.
I used to see Dillahunty dillahunting theists like crippled deer.
But there is a uh– how do I put this? Many Atheists tend to enjoy treating Atheism as a sort of "default" position. But that's not really based on anything. We don't have a uh… an extra control universe we can look at to see what it looks like without a God, there's no point of reference. You understand that. So if anything, you could at best say that Agnosticism is closer to a default. There's a sort of extra-protective label they'll use like "agnostic atheist" (I dunno but I don't believe you) Which is fine… ish. On its own it kind of exposes that everything must eventually boil down to atheistic solipsism or theistic g–I'm not calling it that, I'll just say religion. Excuse me getting caught up in semantics. Of course it is ultimately cope, though. It's a contradiction, or, if you prefer, a very liberal use of the terms because an "agnostic" atheist tends to not act like an agnostic, he just acts like an atheist and then he'll retreat to "agnostic" when you call out the "There is no God" comment he left under someone's "God bless you 🙂" comment. Maybe he'll even mistakenly say the BURDEN OF PROOF is on you, even though he literally just made a claim. HOW QUICKLY HE ABANDONS HIS POSITION, HOW RELUCTANT HE IS TO DEFEND IT.
Only in hindsight do I realize that Matt Dillahunty won all of those debates because it was other people calling into his show and not the other way around. I'm glad they had a nice debate though.
Please ignore all that inconsistent capitalization btw, I’m too tired.
What else... I saw some retard on X yapping about Christianity, but it’s just.so what... “Look at this dumb thing some faggot said, now I will explain why it’s dumb” is just so lazy, I don’t really want to do that. I can’tI CAN’T. I CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANT I want to write fun stuff. Even fun stuff that’s laced with explicitly right-wing or Christian messaging would be better than just showing you someone’s retarded tweet. If you’re reading someone’s blog, you don’t deserve to be tortured. I like writing about Christianity, though. When I’m not doing it out of anger. I’ve gotten some very nice emails about it, so that tells me I *should* do it. I have to do something to make up for all the harm I caused as an atheist.
booksRead another few chapters of … I can’t even remember what book it is… The Last Wish, right? It’s pretty good. Maybe it’s better than I remembered in some ways, there’s really cool details I didn’t remember.
Geralt fighting the princess-turned-striga was SPOOKY. (needed to keep her out of her grave until sunrise to break the curse and make her human)
And the way she tricked him toward the end by appearing mostly-human, but cut his throat with her claws, so he pinned her down and BIT HER until her screams turned human; stuff like that is really hard to write, maaaaaan, it just is. You think you could write that? Here, lemme find it…
His blood was draining quickly. There was no time. The witcher cursed and bit her hard on the neck, just below the ear. He dug his teeth in and clenched them until her inhuman howling became a thin, despairing scream and then a choking sob—the cry of a hurt fourteen-year-old girl.
It’s SAD and it’s not a comfortable scene. You have to be very delicate to have a grown man biting a teen girl’s neck even if she is a beast that’s killed dozens of people.
The chapter ends with someone asking Geralt why he tried to kill her, and that alone puts the question in our heads: was he trying to kill her? No, that’s bullshit. He literally let her go when she stopped moving and checked her hands to make sure they weren’t claws anymore.
But the way the chapter ends, it’s like we’re supposed to consider it.
While he’d been fighting her earlier, Geralt mirrored her aggression, her bloodlust, her EVIL, while beating her up with his silver-spiked fists. So much so that it caused her to flee. Was it that same rage that boiled up and caused him to bite her, instead of incapacitating her another way? Ehhhhhhh… No. No, that’s not really fair to him. He needed his arms to pin her, she was trying to slash and bite him and his neck was already gushing blood. I’m right. If he *enjoyed* it because of any residual bloodlust, that’s a different matter. He saved her life.
anything else?AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA… NOPENOPE im gonna go. ill ttyl, pls take care. and have a relaxing day. Godbless frien
