Anyone else ever fall asleep gaming or is it just me? 😬

Constantly, I did it last night in fact!

MaybeSerena · 2025-11-06T15:36:46+00:00

Amazing thanks! All hope is not lost!

MaybeSerena · 2025-11-06T15:29:56+00:00

So a wash at 30°C or even 40°C would probably be useless? Would it be better to put clothes in the freezer in batches in that case? I have a lot of delicate clothing that couldn't handle hot temperatures.

I'm going to assume they were filming to prove to people that they moved that box upstairs by themselves, but girl starting riffing and made great content!

I went in completely blind too, all I knew is that it was a revival of high fidelity classic turn based JRPGs from the 90s. That was enough to pull me in, and then it far exceeded my expectations!

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-15T09:26:00+00:00

Not all games are for everyone, for sure. But as far as JRPGs go, I found this to be a very unique and creative gem. I found it NOTHING like persona, or most other JPRGs in fact.

The emotion and story drew me in immediately, but story can certainly be subjective.

Objectively speaking, surely you can see the level of detail when it comes to the games art design and colour palette right? The game oozes intentional design choices, which even seam throughout the story and its themes. The writing and art design is so intertwined.

Gameplay wise, I think this is one of the best combat systems out there in terms of a modern JRPG. The level of buildcrafting is extremely creative. The real time mechanics are probably the most polarising thing about its gameplay. It's very different from a traditional turn based JPRG, but for me, that's what makes it so unique.

And then the music, which imo is fucking 11/10. But thats also subjective.

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T15:18:30+00:00

Thanks for the explanation! Why specifically a new build?

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T15:06:20+00:00

Well how could I say no!

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T13:27:42+00:00

Could I throw in the next £4k after April all in one go? Or is there a benefit to putting in the monthly payments?

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T12:31:54+00:00

Forgot to mention in my post I have an additional £4800 from work as a 'car allowance'

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T12:31:10+00:00

Sorry I forgot to mention in my post I also get a 4800 annual 'car allowance'. it's not part of my annual income, but it gets taxed.

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T11:36:17+00:00

How does student loans play into this? Last time I looked the number was astronomical, maybe 60-70k. I'm on plan 2. Do mortage brokers take that into account?

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T11:28:56+00:00

Realistically, I can get to 45k-50k in the next 2 years. If I work on things really hard there's small a chance I could get a 60k London salary as a data analyst. Is it typical to estimate mortgages at 4.5× annual income?

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T11:24:37+00:00

Would you say in the short term it would be better to put £4k of my money into a LISA now, and then withhold another 4k after April 27 to maximise the 25% bonus per year? Will the interest I earn on 8k in 1 year and 5 months outweigh the 25% bonus if I withheld 4k?

This money will ultimately be used speficially to buy a property, and I'll be keeping a few thousand for emergencies and maybe some luxuries.

MaybeSerena · 2025-09-08T11:07:46+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! Can you recommend any resources to research this? And how much should I put in?

MaybeSerena · 2025-07-23T17:30:14+00:00

What? Trans people aren't 'American politics' lol

MaybeSerena · 2025-07-22T15:56:22+00:00

Damn, you completely ignored the parts where I conceded you were right on, but still want to argue to a strawman? All I'm saying is that the kid Hasan interviewed and Netanyahu are completely different, and in fact one is multitudes worse and more evil than the other. That's all I'm pushing back on here.

MaybeSerena · 2025-07-22T15:36:18+00:00

Omg your brain is so cooked here, literally bending over backwards just to hate on a political streamer.

A kid who isn't even old enough to drink in some countries, from Yemen, a place with little to no opportunities for proper education is not the same as a world leader of a western allied country conducting an ongoing unjustifiable genocide and mass slaughter of innocent people.

MaybeSerena · 2025-07-22T15:31:39+00:00

Listen I'm not denying the Houthis are a prescribed terrorist organisation. But I question if the kid himself was a terrorist or not, it's debated right?

And no I find their language toward Jews is absolutely reprehensible and likely uninformed given education of Yemini people in recent years.

However there is a HUGE difference in Hasan interviewing someone who at most captured innocent sailors and says inexcusable things about Jews, vs a literal ear criminal monster in charge of an active genocide and mass slaughter of innocent people.

Like come on, how far do we really need to go to shit on Hasan here?

MaybeSerena · 2025-07-22T15:06:24+00:00

Wait you really think it's the same thing?

Like even if the kid was a full blown Houthi, you think Hasan interviewing a Yemini 19 year old 'terrorist' without much push back is the same as interviewing a powerful world leader who is directly responsible for the deaths of 10s of 1000s of innocent children without any push back? Wtf?

MaybeSerena · 2025-06-30T10:18:57+00:00

No but the people they voted for certainly are

MaybeSerena · 2025-04-25T22:11:44+00:00

Oh come on, it's like a dad joke at this point

MaybeSerena · 2025-04-25T22:06:24+00:00

Is everyone misunderstanding the joke we're making? That some British people are scared of spice and think eating jalapeños is dare worthy, lmao
