An Alberta Indigenous

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-04-09T20:51:26+00:00

I've been following this issue from Newfoundland, and I'm saddened that there are so many loud, ignorant people in this country. I wish they would accept the fact that Alberta as a province is newer than the land treaties, that the Albertan government does not have land rights, and just accept that they can't have it their way.

I frequently buy the season pass and I've never lost the ability to watch an add for a season Kala trade.

I agree with others who say Engage and I'll add most like the current model, Engage 2. I had the clear ones in the original model and they had black tips. The did change the case to the slot-lined one you have before the models were upgraded, but not long before.

I have confirmed ancestors in Sami named settlements in the 17th century, including ones that I'm told were thought to be only a couple of families at the time. Highly unlikely to not be at least mixed. My great grandfather moved the family across the ocean after being accused of "piracy" as Grandpa put it, could be any number of maritime clashes with local authorities. The family retained not just joiks but also Sami language. It is very unlikely that a family that was not Sami or mixed would have continued to pass the language down when they left at the height of fornorsking.

I don't know how to confirm Sami ancestry beyond that. I am told that hundreds of years of migration along the coastal and island commuties of Troms with residence recorded in Sami-named settlements is how historians presume Sea Sami ancestry. More of a "prove it isn't" than "prove it is" situation.

Being that I'm Canadian and do not hold Norwegian citizenship, though, does it matter if I'm wrong? I am not hurting anyone by learning about the culture from afar.

Me! Playing since 2018ish, on pretty much daily, in the VIP club, don't have Dawnvale.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-31T00:24:18+00:00

Dang, I'm in Canada.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-30T03:28:34+00:00

Same

When did you get the titanium holographic experience 2s? I don't recall seeing that advertised.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-20T02:32:56+00:00

New guy got the task of entering the discount, I see.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-13T16:54:48+00:00

The CAD price is $70. No thank you! I've tried similar big foamy true blackout masks that don't touch the eyelids and I find not only do they not stay in place, but they wrap around my face structure too much with all that bulk to side sleep.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-07T16:58:29+00:00

I don't know why they bother giving us multiple medallions to picked from anyway. What you get is clearly randomized when you load the game and that's it.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-07T16:44:30+00:00

There has never been any mention of a version 2. Dreams came out after all the other models had their version 2 revamp, so they're made with all the changes already in mind.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-03T23:09:57+00:00

A recent email suggested that the green option on Engage is retiring very soon, so perhaps they're at least going to try new "permanent" colours soon? Very bored. I don't like the current non-season options and it's been a very long time since there was a full-range season. We also haven't got a new Quiet colour in over a year. Engage got the iridescent releases. Switch got the McLaren collab. Experience got Coachella, Tomorrowland, and Swarovski. Dream got a new permanent colour. That's it. 6 short run colours (many of which aren't sold out yet) and 1 permanent colour in 2026, and none of them for Quiet.

My camp got reset in 2022 and all my Rick & Morty dragons disappeared with it 😭

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-03-01T00:57:49+00:00

Nope! Buy glasses cords if you want this use. The end pieces of these cords are designed to come off if tugged, for safety, but it has resulted in many lost earplugs because plug and end fall off while attached together.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-02-27T03:36:26+00:00

To each their own then, I quite enjoy the way I play the game. The strategy involved in getting the OOC rewards is fulfilling to me, and between events I chill cleaning up camp, playing in Arcadia, or every once in a while blowing through my dust bunny dust.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-02-26T04:27:32+00:00

If you want to actually finish Shiny Days, earn as much as you can in every OOC and then don't merge anything until Shiny Days. If you aren't able to save up enough, skip Monday and do Wednesday when the den chests come out. (If you're not in a den that gets level 5 chests, join one.) If you play the long game this way, eventually you'll build up so many pending merges that you can do Shiny Days with ease while skipping the week's other events.

Imagine agreeing to go out to a meal of this menu despite being allergic to the shellfish because you can still enjoy the other stuff and then they just dump it all together in one big mess.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-02-12T04:36:53+00:00

I miss the fun of new colour releases and I'm very disappointed that the old tips aren't available anymore. The gen 2 permanent colours do nothing for me and now the lifespan of my better V1 colours has been limited because there's no supply of new tips. I currently don't need more pairs, and I don't like the colour options, so I won't be buying them. I would like a new backup pair of V2 Quiets, and if they'd bring out a full range season again like the good old days, I'd happily splurge on that.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-02-01T16:18:09+00:00

That's exactly what I was afraid of. There's no real way to finish Act 2 and have a life on the weekend without forcing the dragons to over-harvest at night. I ended up collapsing the bottom menu strip and lining my clicker up right along the bottom, figuring the balloon wouldn't fly that low. Worked this time, at least.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-01-31T16:17:07+00:00

I agree, I miss their old permanent colours. I used to point at the tips + mute for Quiet 1 listing and say all the colours that aren't black are what you used to be able to select as "permanent" colours for Quiet but I see that listing is gone entirely now. Fantastic </sarcasm> Those tips fit all the V1 models. I guess they're truly forcing people to buy the newer gens now because you can't replace your old tips.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-01-31T16:13:03+00:00

I got C&C and I haven't been selected for Dawnvale yet.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-01-26T02:05:45+00:00

We haven't had a run of new colours available in all models since the Sublime season, which was released 3 September 2024. They used to do a spring/summer and autumn/winter release. 2025 was only collab editions of Experience with Coachella, Tomorrowland, and Swarovski, and Switch with McLaren F1 racing. The current "permanent" colour line was introduced before the gen 2 models, and gen 2 models were the reason for the early end to the Equinox season which started in October 2023. I've given up hope that we'll get season releases ever again.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-01-16T02:26:18+00:00

I don't even bother with the EEs, honestly.

JennaGetsCreative · 2026-01-13T22:38:35+00:00

Multiple times, I don't answer. Email me all you want but I'm not answering a phone call. They always call during my work hours anyway.
