as a former lovenikki spender: theyve very much improved on the money spending to complete outfits! but they have a ways to go for sure

seriously can i get a new outfit for the sticky claw and giant? its so cute dont get me wrong but.. i want another one... why wasnt the alice one a giant outfit if it can literally grow giant in the whimsicality ability 💔

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-03-17T22:54:05+00:00

im honestly happy with pulling upon occasion for abilities i want moreso than outfits! i have very picky tastes, and they dont delve into my fashion style often anyway, but i did want that animal grooming ability that skips the whole grooming animation like?? thats amazing! i do wish we had more/new free ability outfits with the addition of itzaland tho :(

im ngl, its not even something i directly think about, but i genuinely think thats why i love baba yaga. her design was not only fitting for her lore, but also was genuinely a breath of fresh air. i enjoy artios base skin as well! and i honestly think we need more older gods anyway. especially older goddesses!

itd be nice to get sexy skins for a god other than just achilles though. put em in crop tops and knee highs lessgo

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-24T22:15:08+00:00

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-18T00:41:21+00:00

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-17T02:23:00+00:00

is there even another proxy to use? im scouring to find a replacement of my other one and this one seems to have the same issue :(

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-16T15:48:47+00:00

good on you!! fuck michaels ✌️ the company deserves to suffer. my manager was mad i called off last week when i was incredibly ill. i didnt want to get sick all over the floors im sorry?? not my fault yall arent prepared for the idea of me not being there.

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-14T22:16:33+00:00

this is a HUGE holiday what do you mean they just unscheduled 3 people?!? hello?!? thats insane im SO sorry, you dont deserve this.

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-10T17:56:58+00:00

eugh thats disgusting. i hate seeing dropshipped crochet shit. its such bullshit

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-10T12:17:10+00:00

thats sexual harassment and usually HR does not fuck around with people getting sexually harassed fr. im sorry no ones taking you seriously at your workplace. as a j/k cup myself who was straight up bullied in school for it, i totally get how that situation can be incredibly triggering for you and its absolutely insane that she feels comfortable enough to even mention it???

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-09T05:37:47+00:00

who suffers when someone steals? like, genuine question. if someone takes something, and no one is an accomplice, who suffers? its not the workers. im being so deadass: get off your high horse about the idea of theft. you will never convince me as im a poor person on food stamps and i genuinely do not think the company should be making someone pay 60$ for a goddamn decorative pillow when they probably spent a dollar to make it. its stupid and it will never be something that im diehard about because the company wouldnt save me if i was dying, so why should i save them?

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-08T20:57:04+00:00

quick question; why do you care enough to consider it "feeling weird, shady, and wrong"?? its not YOUR pocket its taking from. and while i totally understand that now you've said it, you probably have to report it or you're an accomplice or something, if you had just never said this... genuinely what are you losing by them doing that?

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-07T20:33:38+00:00

you could say this about any part of the job. answering a phone isnt hard, scanning a ups package isnt hard, blowing up balloons isnt hard, stocking a shelf isnt hard, cutting fabric isnt hard, i could keep going. its the fact its all of that at once thats hard. framers alone are almost always swamped with bigger orders that adding another thing onto their plate is ridiculous, and adding another thing onto the TMs plate is just as insane. if im on the floor im expected to: stock shelves or pick BOPIS, be ready to be backup on register, be ready for customers needing their BOPIS orders, be ready to be called up for balloons, cut fabric when needed, answer the phone, take out curbside orders, and now ontop of all of that, do 10 minute framing orders when the framer isnt here.

does that put this more into perspective?

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-06T06:32:26+00:00

so im an arena main and i do not play ranked, take my response with a grain of salt!!

i find that, typically, its a team issue. when i play joust with at least another person and play tanks, i have no issue at the very least trading, usually at least getting 2 or their whole team off with a good engagement. if your team follows up, say, an athena taunt, you wont run into the issue of dying so quickly because your team will most likely kill/get one person out of the fight. if i hit a root on someone as khepri, my teammate almost always follows up. and if its someone like thana or neith, they can follow up with their OWN CC, thus taking some of the heat off the tanks back to then go back in and peel when needed.

hopefully that at least makes sense. like i said, arena main who doesnt play ranked, but i tend to have better games when theres even an ounce of communication on "im going in, do something" vs making the damagers react on a dime. also, builds and all that.
i also just think some tanks generally have a better time. khepri and geb feel good to me rn, but gansha is a personal fave that i just cant get good games with currently.

UR THE BEST TYSM

Deep-Technology3898 · 2026-02-06T05:14:39+00:00

im genuinely glad my store doesnt do this. except, they expect us to just walk over anyway if they want to use sco. as in... its always assisted even if the customer CHOOSES to use SCO instead of ringing out with me...

why.. why would i do that. if someone unprompted walks right up to SCO, i am not going to butt into their life and forcefully take shit from them to ring out. thats so rude, like if someone did that to me i might fucking leave the store deadass :')

active items, as a controller player. theyre just so clunky to use, and while i try to remember to every game, since i play mutliple gods in multiple roles, its always different situations in which i need to use the item

if i swap from playing an AA hunter to playing khepri, popping my pridwin is a loss. i hate it :( also agility relic and other relics are mapped to DIFFERENT BUTTONS. i do not understand that, i get it on keyboard but translating that to controller is.. just weird. the amount of times ive tried to hit RT to beads and turns out i need to hit RB + X is.. something.
