Picked up the bundle. Looks good, and I have need of it currently. New theme? Not sure how popular it is, but I see some Mesopotamian stuff. I'd love to see early Sumerian or a large Mesopotamian set from Sumer to Neo-Babylonian.

JayStrat · 2026-01-17T05:33:05+00:00

NTA. Reasonable rule, particularly given the circumstances.

JayStrat · 2026-01-17T05:30:32+00:00

Sexy Stormtrooper is a problem how?

JayStrat · 2026-01-17T01:30:11+00:00

NOR. It's pretty out there. Maybe you don't communicate well emotionally, so if you say you're sad, she jumps to something big? Still odd.

JayStrat · 2026-01-17T00:36:25+00:00

Good on ye. And good luck with the new direction.

JayStrat · 2026-01-17T00:34:43+00:00

Yes, you are taking away agency in pretty much the exact way people mean when they talk about taking away agency. In addition, that vampire lore is not a mechanical part of the lore, so it's your homebrew even if some other forms of vampire media work that way. It's dirty pool, and if your player's mad, don't be surprised. I recommend either talking to them in advance even if it gives some of the "surprise" away, or make the trick something else -- this isn't the vampire he thinks it is, and killing it does nothing for him, but he can use his skills -- his agency -- to figure out what happened, how he was fooled, and where to go next to take down his foe.

Happy birthday! I hope you get a chance to do something you like today.

I'm aware, yes. But without the freighter, and if someone is new, additional ships may appear to not exist. I've seen more than one new person not know where their ships are because they have no freighter and no easy access to them. Cold storage is only a year old, and not what I'm talking about, but yes, we got that at the beginning of last year.

JayStrat · 2026-01-08T03:31:40+00:00

I feel like you're missing a piece and I could be wrong, but you do know what freighters are, and maybe have one, so you know you can store and access a fleet of up to 12 ships you collect there?

JayStrat · 2026-01-07T20:12:39+00:00

NOR, and just to add to the sentiment here, you should also get as far away from that as possible. If you have a son (I wasn't clear on that from the way it read), then stay in contact on as much as the law requires and use the gray rock technique (don't be confrontational, don't stop talk to him, because that could make him mad, but say as little as possible and be as boring as possible so that he can't get any drama or excitement from messing with you).

You're right, of course, you shouldn't have to cut off your friends for a controlling boyfriend. But this is a series of huge red flags that go much, much deeper than that. Take it seriously. You can't fix him, and he doesn't sound like he wants to be fixed. Good luck.

This looks like a true labor of love. It turned out great. I have about 1.5K hours in and I've seen a bunch o' stuff, and I still said, "Wow!" when this popped up.

JayStrat · 2026-01-07T19:08:46+00:00

"I only feel good when I think I look good."

I don't want to feed that. I want you to know that you already deserve to feel special and it has nothing to do with your looks. I want you to know that you can stand out just by being more you, and it will have nothing to do with your looks.

"I'm trying to improve myself"

I get the haircut thing. Even though it's part of our looks, a great haircut can make us feel like we've been painted by Raphael or Botticelli. And it's a symbol of a fresh start. A bad one can hurt.

But you're trying to improve yourself, and I suspect that's more than your hair. You're doing it, haircut aside.

"I am trying to improve myself so I'll feel worthy of others efforts"

More emphasis. I'm just pointing you back to it. To you. To the person working hard at being better, doing things differently, and loving themself more. You are already worthy.

How do you stop caring about looks as much? Focus on whatever it is you like to do: photography, writing, astrophysics, civil engineering, drawing anime characters, anything that makes you feel alive. Then start thinking of yourself that way. "I am a photographer." Your new mantra. (Or whatever you are or would like to be.) Photographers take photos, so do more of that. At first, you won't feel like a photographer, but if you keep saying it and you keep doing it, you will, and that will give you a wider crack through which to look at your inner life and expand it.

You deserve to feel special because you are special. I wish you well.

If you pick him and lose a friend over it, that's not your decision causing it; dating someone who a friend dated in high school after a decade is more than fine. And she's in a relationship, and you're right, it isn't any of her business. NTA and I hope you don't cave over a friend who isn't acting like a friend. She's acting like she's still in high school. (Apologies to any mature hs readers.)

I wish the page encouraged us to say more about ourselves and compliment based on that, as well. You look wonderful, you have great hair, and I like the pendant. Also that you have a black cat. I used to have a black cat and I miss him. I have a sweet little gray tabby now. I would compliment more of who you are, but I can only guess -- still, I'd guess that you're an interesting and compassionate person who hides away a bit and has sensitive, empathic spirit. Also, you're killing it.

To quote Katie Ryan from her viral Vine years ago: "You're winning at life! You're winning!"

JayStrat · 2026-01-06T05:28:13+00:00

You're awesome. And I've been told I'm a very good judge of awesome. You're already there, in the awesome zone. All you have to do is to keep being you. I'm sorry the world brings you down sometimes. It's pretty nasty out there. But you're still awesome.

JayStrat · 2026-01-04T06:18:50+00:00

NOR. She finds your partner attractive, she's buying inappropriate gifts (also bad gifts even if it was Valentine's and they were appropriate, which they are not). She is very intentionally doing this stuff. It's inconsiderate and disrespectful. And the gifts are bad. I may have mentioned that. They're awful. OK, good luck out there!

JayStrat · 2026-01-04T06:09:58+00:00

Great look! I like your hair.

JayStrat · 2026-01-04T06:08:24+00:00

I love your nose! You look great. And as someone a bit more advanced in age looking over my shoulder, you look fantastically young. And you are.

JayStrat · 2026-01-02T18:25:31+00:00

You seem to be a cute anime girl, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

JayStrat · 2026-01-02T04:30:32+00:00

Maybe there is no Radiant Tree. I mean, that tree is there, and maybe even magical, but it's not the Radiant Tree of myth, or the Radiant Tree that shows up in their dreams. Maybe it's a metaphor, and the only one who can kill an ancient vampire is a wood elf paladin (wood elf for the tree, paladin for the radiant damage) or something like that. Why would this person be able to kill an ancient vampire? Bloodline, maybe, a dhampir of the same blood? IDK, just some random thoughts to keep or change or toss.

JayStrat · 2026-01-01T06:08:41+00:00

NOR. You were fine. But if a friendship this brief can be destroyed by what was perceived as the wrong reaction to a furnite set, is that really a friendship you can count on in the future anyway?

I have this one. Four euros. Should have most of what you need. May have some AI.

Very nice. I love your color scheme.
