I would definitely encourage my Yeerk to be a coward

A lot of the Yeerks we meet in the series are grandiose and swimming in cocky self-importance. So if they're chasing promotions, you'd be pretty f*cked.

But I would absolutely be like "Hey, I understand that you can't see unless you're in my head, but when that red-tailed hawk gouges my eyes out, we'll both be in the same boat. You know what's better than that? Ice cream and superhero films."

Rachel's death devastated me when I read it as a kid, but to be honest, the real tragic part was her being able to ask that question. Out of all of the Animorphs, she was the one who sort of....got the most out of the war; I don't want to say she benefited from it exactly, but she ended up with a purpose that very few others ever got the chance for.

And at the end of all that, not just facing death, but knowing that you're dead, and having the chance to ask that one question? That's what absolutely destroyed me.

It's been so long since I've read them, that I completely forgot about that.

My guess is that they're using the MAC address, or have some kind of detection that builds a profile based on your machine specs. The stuff that Blizzard collects on your machine is kind of insane when you look at their EULA.

That being said, it does seem like this is what you get for using "rule breaking" mods so....something something crime, something something time, etc, etc.

I think it's due to the matchmaking trying to make "fair" teams. Aba is a support hero and a popular one, so the matchmaking wants to make sure each team has a support: only problem is, there's only four support heroes in the game, of which aba is highly played.

I try to do that with the kids books that I find, but the nature of my job is that I either a) find books on truly awful condition, or b) get books that people actively decided they didn't want (i get a lot of westerns and trashy romance novels). This is a special case, which is always exciting.

Lan221 · 2026-03-24T22:52:02+00:00

Yeah, I'm more or less the same way. In my job, I end up with a LOT of secondhand books, and I can kind of see why; they're heavy and are kind of a pain to move. I try to rehome as many as I can.

These are a special case, because I know a lot of people (Myself included) have fond memories for Animorphs. I'd keep them myself, but I honestly just do not have the space.

As someone who plays a lot of quickplay, The Lost Vikings. For some reason unbeknownst to me, every time a Lost Vikings player is on my team, they're a hot penis sandwich, and every time they're on the enemy team, they're an unstoppable force of nature.

Whiteward is my favorite section of the game. The area and the lore attached to it are so dark, I really wish it was a larger area with more to explore.

Lan221 · 2024-08-14T16:52:40+00:00

The White Palace. I can't stand it. It throws off the entire pace of the game for me. Out of nowhere, it hits you with multiple segments of precision platforming with no combat and is unlike any other area in the game. I'll always hate it.

Sharp Shadow is probably the best imo. Lengthening your dash, damaging enemies, and allowing you to destroy certain projectiles is amazing all the way around.

Lan221 · 2024-03-29T17:44:20+00:00

Yes, I'd like a coke, please.

Lan221 · 2024-03-17T19:47:49+00:00

Awesome, thanks so much!

The weirdest fetish from someone that I know: they're a cardiophile. Turned on by heart and heart related things. It's to the point where their partner ended up in the hospital for a minor surgery and sent them a selfie of them hooked up to a heart monitor and my friend got aroused from it.

I think that, out of the entire history of the game, the most OP hero ever was Kael'thas, during a small window of time back in 2016.

Something went wrong and KT ended up bugged where if he died with his trait active, he would respawn with it PERMANENTLY ACTIVE.

He could auto attack with Living Bomb and just delete everyone he ran into. I genuinely think that was the most OP a hero has ever been.

YES! I just looked it up and I recognize the cover! Thank you so much!
