So, Bluesky seems nice so far. My only gripe at the moment is the order of the buttons for photos, gifs, etc. But that's more of a nitpick because of how used to things I get and how hard it is for me to adjust to changes. Having a dedicated video button is nice, though.

Browsing the xbox store just now and saw this.

I feel seen.

😀

And afraid.

😶‍🌫️

Also, somewhat intrigued.

Seriously, game? I can understand not getting the Stoutland, but did you have to choose the only one that I already had copies of? 😠

🤔 Hm... Can't imagine why your neck would hurt with a setup like that.

The wiki says I should be getting slayer coins equal to 10% of a monster's max HP per kill, yet I'm only getting 1%.

As an example, the displayed monster has 2500 HP, yet I only got 25 SC per kill.

Am I missing something here?

I may have made a mistake here.

I live with depression and social anxiety…every day.
Some days I feel invisible.
Other days I wish I could be.

I don’t share this for sympathy.
I share it because we need to make it normal to talk about the things that hurt.

It’s okay to not be okay.
And it’s okay to talk about not being okay 💙🫂

Ok, @gearboxofficial.bsky.social, invisible walls are already annoying, but this is ridiculous.

I thought it was a window at first, but the path clearly showed I was supposed to go through.

Exiting and reloading the game fixed it, but it shouldn't have happened at all.

I unleashed the TEARex on the mini metropolis map expecting Godzilla level destruction.

Instead, I get this.

Disappointing, but funny as hell.

Idk if this is a neurospicy thing, but I just realized why phone calls annoy me sometimes and I prefer texting. It's bc for me to be on a phone call and actively listening/paying attention, I can't do anything else. I'm unable to split my focus. But I can text and do any number of things.

You might appreciate this take.

While browsing yet another post regarding AI and its nature and morality, I started thinking about the Pakleds from Star Trek and realized that they're very similar.

Just when you think you've seen the dumbest thing ever, along comes Balenciaga.

From the company that brought you pre-ripped jeans and pre-dirtied shoes, all at premium prices, comes their latest fashion abomination.

Pre-destroyed hoodies.

🤦‍♂️

Well, that ended sooner than I expected. Couldn't even wait til the end of the month, eh?

Feh.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I got two of the gold cards. But I really was hoping for at least one Professor card.

Oh well. 😐

I feel this every day when I'm at work, though I only truly notice it whenever I leave for a delivery or when I get home after my shift.

Any chance of getting a font update here? It's fine altogether, except for the little dot in the center of the zero. It makes it nigh indistinguishable from an eight.

When I realized that NPCs reacted to getting shot, because you can actually shoot them now, this happened. Personally, I found it hilarious and just ran with it. Literally.

This is the first legendary I got, and it came from a vending machine of all places.

I don't see myself changing it any time soon, except for a higher level one.

Kill an enemy?

Armor shard breaks?

Enemy looks at you funny?

I love it! 😁👍

While browsing the store, I couldn't help but notice this. This had to have been intentional. It's also kinda funny, given the game's ESRB rating.

Suggestive themes, indeed. 😂
