  • Give it the weight it deserves. Some of the other replies here are on point and this interaction doesn’t deserve any negative head space, but bad examples of what not to do are really helpful. You have a chance to choose how to treat people… you bump into friends and strangers every single day. Use the bad examples from your life and the good ones to shape who you are. Aim at the version of yourself who would answer that same question with respect and kindness. Keeping negative things in your head but using them for something positive is the best use of that memory.





  • You can only get this effect in the center of your visual field due to the organization of your retina where you have color vision. The rest of your eye is much more sensitive to light so you can see dim stars more easily in your periphery by looking away from them a bit. Maybe you can use your own biology to help enjoy the night sky even more! If you get a friend, you can use colored pen caps and get them to hold them in your periphery and tell them what color it is. You don’t be able to until they reach the color vision part of your visual field if you stay looking forward.

    It’s trippy, but your brain fills in color for you a lot of the time.


  • But evolution ended up giving us two external tubes to breathe. My conclusion is that its better to have redundancy in external tubes openings for air.

    So, to avoid the efficiency of a branch that lets us eat and breathe from our mouths would you make it so we can’t breathe from our mouths and we still have 2 tubes to breathe as redundancy? If so, where would you place the extra tube opening? Head or further away? Toe or back would help act as a snorkel, I’d think.







  • I’m excited for flying mount updrafts and adventures but a little worried that mounting in combat will be awkward for the game.

    There must be some new reason they want us to be able to get on a flying mount in combat but it’s odd that this doesn’t extend to other mounts and I also wonder if it will remove flavor from other parts of the game by making the choice to get into combat a bit more trivial. I’m just not sure about that one until I get my hands on it.

    Right now if you choose to solo a champ or low man a group event there can be a trade off by choosing to disengage. That’s totally gone if you can decide to fly away whenever you want.



  • I’m trying to complete meta achievements for all EoD maps and story journal episodes. I also started doing fractals again after a long break. A little gold in the bank will buy me some of the new shineys. As part of restarting fractals I’m making it my goal to be decent at all roles again (1 alac, 1 quick, 1 cdps, and 1 pdps) because the only instances I’ve hung out in for the last year are strikes and I have been in healer-jail for CM runs.
