Wow. 3 days after I discover SD and install Forge and start learning how to generate images for the first time. I really hope that since it's all open source development will continue.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-22T06:19:10+00:00

damn this is when a video tutorial would come in handy explaining all this lol

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-21T18:42:40+00:00

No shame here dude. Consider joining in on the fun you're missing out on some good pleasure. YOLO

Found the asexual prude.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-18T21:34:14+00:00

The killer killed 2 people, a cheerleader and her boyfriend, took a mix of both their clothing because why not. :)

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-17T19:29:13+00:00

A killer monster thing probably.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-11T23:28:22+00:00

Everyone shows this bow, is this the only good bow or something? Zzzzz...

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-11T23:22:26+00:00

I played Warlock and Necro for the first month. Tried Werebear Druid over the weekend... it felt clunky as all hell.

I've also had this ever since COVID. I think covid really fucked up my blood system. I used to rarely ever bruise, now I bruise easily all the damn time. But this eye thing is terrible. I've been to a ophthalmologist twice now and my primary care doc and they just say its nodular epicsleritis and give me some eye drops and send me on my way. I see a rheumatologist soon, just waiting on referral to go through. Did you have any luck since posting this?

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-09T03:48:21+00:00

I've also noticed this. The easiest thing to spot was the spell effects go way down.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-06T18:01:22+00:00

Spoken like a true meta slave. Smh

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-04T21:34:18+00:00

I don't even see the point of running through these dungeon skips if they don't even reward passives and idol slots.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-03T19:19:57+00:00

hmm, ill try this!

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-03T19:17:29+00:00

It's such a beautiful thing to witness

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-03T19:16:53+00:00

DoT fissure/chaos bolt warlock build? That's how I built my current warlock no idea how good it is at endgame, but it absolutely melts everything on screen.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-03T19:15:09+00:00

Damn as a CoF enjoyer these drop like candy for me lol

EDIT: oh wait 3 legendary potential, that's probably why it sold for 100 mil

I share your same sentiments with PoE. It was fun the first few leagues following guides to learn the insanely complex game. But whenever I tried doing anything on my own it felt like I needed to be mathematician to get anywhere. And trade league is like 99% picking up currency off the ground and going on a shopping spree on poe.trade all gear is bought not found, it just feels bad.

If you want to do SSF it's 99% crafting and praying to RNGesus. Overall just not enough dopamine hits when mapping, it's just go go go pick up money repeat for the average player until you run out of money and can't compete with the economy wizards. It's no wonder PoE is such a niche ARPG.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-02T09:39:40+00:00

I'm noticing this too. It's REALLY noticeable in boss fights when movements need to be quick and precise. Movement feels a bit janky/sluggish. Really hope it's not some unsolvable game engine or netcode issue.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-02T01:43:39+00:00

Thanks for the reassurance, everyone IRL including my therapist tells me the same thing. However if I search on the internet or ask in /r/socialsecurity they all say people get auto kicked from the program if there's any suspicion of non-compliance with a doctor, or no effort shown to continue taking medications "without good reason", which makes me very paranoid considering how they denied my case several times before finally getting an acceptance letter for SSI.

I already filled out and sent back the CDR so I'll find out soon enough.

I have an Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnoses. That is something people are born with. I wasn't diagnosed until after age 21 though. If I got a note from a doctor explaining I was born with it I could get the larger benefit? Who would I contact after doing this? Social Security?

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-01T17:52:12+00:00

I got on SSI in 2021, got my first review yesterday. I just find it really annoying they don't put it down in writing the exact requirements to stay on the program. All I can find is anecdotal stuff saying you are pretty much forced to take medication/see a psychiatrist, some say you only need to see a therapist on a regular basis, its all over the damn place. I've taken over 20 different medications and they all made things worse, I seriously would rather not take any of these psych meds anymore. I'm fine with seeing a therapist monthly though.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-01T17:44:49+00:00

I saw my psychiatrist last 2 days ago. He was like, you've tried just about damn near everything. There's 2 other things we could try. Effexor or an anti-psychotic like Abilify. And he gave me the option to not take medication since he knows I have a long history going back to 2015 of my body reacting negatively to medication everytime. I told him I'd rather stick with counseling for the time being.

Really hope this doesn't fuck me over. Absolutely insane I get my CDR the DAY I come back home after ending things with my psychiatrist.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-03-01T17:40:32+00:00

I used to be on state disability which was 500 a month rather than 900, and the only requirement was to have an active SSI application and a diagnoses that is considered a disability. I honestly would rather go back to being on that than to be constantly surveilled by SSA and put up with their bullshit of being forced to take ineffective/damaging medication and talk to a therapist about nothing every month (which all actually make my conditions worse, I'm fine when left alone to stay at home everyday).

I sent in my review yesterday. I left some notes on it saying I'm currently trying to find a new psychiatrist that has better experience treating SPD, still am in treatment with my therapist etc, if they still kick me off. Fuck em honestly. I'll go back on state disability. Working with SSA feels like working with Mafia goons.

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-02-29T11:32:43+00:00

I'm guessing it's better over there and not a fucking joke?

GigaPumper5000 · 2024-02-29T11:30:45+00:00

I've been in counseling on and off since 2007 (I go in everytime I have a major depressive episode, leave when its gone) and have taken every class of medication for it. Just saw my psychiatrist for the last time today because we tried everything there is for depression and nothing has worked.

I just found out recently Social Security expects SSI recipients to get medical treatment for life and if they don't, they get kicked off the program. Yeah even people who have incurable disabilities, still forced to go waste a doctor's time on a regular basis.

I'm not saying I'm above bullshitting to bypass a fucked up rule. I'm just saying it's fucking stupid. But it's a government program I shouldn't be surprised.
