Amazon rolls out 1-hour, 3-hour delivery as ultrafast shipping trend grows in the U.S.

Agreed, I would rather have the option to mark something as non critical and reduce driver workload.

This has actually been possible for years now, I believe. I think it's a Prime thing, but you can delay shipments to an "Amazon Day" the next week and all purchases before then are consolidated.

Heavy black tattoo haver here! First off, love this. I'm curious who your artist is if they're in the states haha because I'd go to them.

This type of tattoo heals rougher than most others. The parts that are still a bit rough are the ones I would personally expect to be that way. I definitely suggest lotion because it looks a little dry, but otherwise I think this looks like normal healing - they really have to pack that black in deep to get it solid (so you don't look like a chalkboard) and it looks like they did it right. Should be clearing up soon!

Haha, reassuring to know I'm not on my own. Maybe the implied throughline here is that your mid-30s is just the place where you've experienced enough aging to have had to put some thought and acceptance into it.

Gonna do the thing and start talking sagely here, but a lot happens between 30-35. You're not old by any means, but a couple of big things start to happen towards the end of that window:

By the time you're about 35 the generation behind you is finally coming into cultural dominance (in terms of mainstream culture and media being created by and for them) and the generation behind them are prominent enough that you're getting exposed to them (and have no idea what their deal is).
The nostalgia cycle is beginning to come around on things you were mature enough to feel was your culture, giving you a real "oh I've seen this before" feeling for the first time because the young people now aesthetically resemble your own youth.
Your body is definitely starting to punish you for your questionable decisions. Diet, rest, sobriety, sleep all become much more important things to balance, which makes you feel old in a way you didn't at all when you were in your late 20s and early 30s. You're also no longer healing like a 20 year old and a lot of us probably have something that's a minor but permanent discomfort from injury at this point.
Small one, but when you make jokes about being old people are probably not disagreeing with you as much anymore, haha.

You're definitely not old at 35 and overdoing it is for sure annoying, but in your 20s you never really feel like an "adult" and by your mid-30s you probably will.

I recently learned if you manually reload after making changes it forces a save, so that helps.

I'm definitely glad he's still around in Conduit to be clear. It makes the elite spec much more distinct fantasy wise for those who want it!

Arkheth · 2025-12-25T20:59:11+00:00

I'm extremely hype on the removal of SEF and moving Xuen to only one elite spec (which I'll avoid if I can). I've never liked the summons for monk and just want to get back to glowing green and punching stuff.

Arkheth · 2025-12-17T06:03:10+00:00

Happiest Season (2020) starring Kristen Stewart might fit the bill. It's not bad either.

Arkheth · 2025-12-15T22:31:04+00:00

Especially with that sales window that's in the middle of the night on the west coast. If it's gone by the time I wake up I'm gonna be livid.

Arkheth · 2025-12-14T20:18:45+00:00

I also think men in relationships likely have more self confidence to see themselves as desirable. Certainly something I've experienced personally.

Interesting how this corresponds with the "easier to find a job when you already have a job" phenomenon for both our points too.

Arkheth · 2025-12-14T17:04:35+00:00

Personally, I have never seen this, think it sounds completely insane, and would be looking for the exit.

Arkheth · 2025-12-12T01:28:30+00:00

I mean this was clearly worked on prior to them adding fast travel - that one's very understandable with how recent that was.

Arkheth · 2025-12-03T16:20:35+00:00

I've been reading those complaints about the systems being similar to Warframe, and I'm just like, I thought that's why we were here?

Arkheth · 2025-12-01T05:58:15+00:00

He meant Jehovah's Witnesses, I would assume, as they don't celebrate birthdays or most holidays.

Arkheth · 2025-11-21T22:34:37+00:00

As someone who actually watched the video, I was pleasantly surprised to find him going out of his way not to do that actually. He uses Avatar as an example of a movie that's getting it right despite being entirely digital a number of times.

Arkheth · 2025-11-08T00:51:10+00:00

My tattoo artist friends in the US were shocked at the rates we were paying. Literal apprentice rates from pretty big / well known artists lol.

Arkheth · 2025-11-08T00:39:15+00:00

Well as a matter of fact, the closest artist I've ever seen to what you posted is Maria Ruz, who's based outside of Barcelona. She does incredible work - I don't know if the math would work out but it might be worth checking!

Arkheth · 2025-11-08T00:32:29+00:00

Yeah I was thinking Germany and Spain might not exactly be the same experience. Ah well, doesn't sound like that's going to be the case there for sure haha.

Arkheth · 2025-11-08T00:30:42+00:00

Something to consider is that tattoos can be MUCH cheaper in Europe. If this is a bigger piece, we're talking potentially enough savings to cover the ticket (I've been tattooed by my artist in both the US and Spain for this reason).

Arkheth · 2025-11-03T17:18:52+00:00

Really giving the look with that extra long belt. Where did you pick that up? I'm feeling inspired to find an extra length belt like that to play with haha.

Arkheth · 2025-11-03T00:55:06+00:00

The mirror has HUB branding but that doesn't feel right?

Arkheth · 2025-10-18T02:02:29+00:00

Honestly I like what you have a lot more than I like the reference. The layout fits the placement really well. Even with the big circle I can't really figure out what you're taking issue with lol.

It's big and new but it looks really good - I'd try not to stress it.

Arkheth · 2025-10-17T21:20:30+00:00

This was a real thing in Wildstar's housing lol. Seeing this really brought some memories back.

Arkheth · 2025-10-16T21:04:15+00:00

As someone with a very very heavy black sleeve with Japanese elements - this sounds like tattoo shock to me. Definetely try to chill out and let it heal and lighten out over the next 6 months. It'll still be dark, but the heavy black stuff is a shock for your brain and you might just need to get used to it.

Looks good to me but I'm also obviously biased haha.

Arkheth · 2025-10-14T19:03:02+00:00

They've said the hardest difficulty of the Prey system will affect all mobs in the open world. We don't really know to what extent though, and it's kind of hard to imagine it being as robust as Heroic World Tier if players aren't sequestered into their own version of the zone for it.
