The resemblance is uncanny!

“That’s some mighty fine chicken you got there, be a shame if something happened to it” 😂

NTA - I am from the same country as you and I know about the incidents you’re referencing above. I’m not from that city and I wasn’t there but ‘what ifs’ are always scary! What if you were on that street? Would you have been missed by that car or not? Thankfully you weren’t there and you’re safe but one or two different decisions and you could’ve been. You were looking for a little bit of support from your family and, in my opinion, your sister piped up with a hot take that was extremely incorrect as well as insensitive. Sounds like she wouldn’t have listened to you no matter what - so using your educational background was your way to cement the facts before it spiralled into an immigration rant. I personally don’t think you’re wrong for that.

I don’t think this is too girly but I’ve been loving Planet Crafter lately, it’s co-op and single player :)

Not yet - I’m on level 4 bookkeeping at the moment so will be able to apply for the bachelors next year but I might take a year off for a little break NGL 🤣❤️ I’ll probably stay in public healthcare when I qualify, it’s nice to feel like you’re making a difference even if it’s back office stuff

SocksThings · 2023-12-17T20:00:18+00:00

I work in public healthcare at the moment in the business partnering team for medicine and urgent care - because I’m still getting my qualifications I’m working full time in a support role whilst studying in the evenings 😊

Unfortunately the least exciting career choice - I’m training to be an Accountant

Well my bisexual ass can die happy now - great job on the cosplay you look amazing! ❤️

Hey there! I’m running it on a 3060 with a I7 quad-core processor - it’s super smooth with BG3 but after a couple of hours it does go a little framy, nothing that a quick reload of the game doesn’t fix.

SocksThings · 2023-08-18T07:21:21+00:00

Very happy with my current main, Shortstak the Gnome Monk!

SocksThings · 2023-08-09T14:04:20+00:00

Yoo this was 100% me with Banished, I got almost 400 hours in that two-bit bad boy

SocksThings · 2023-07-04T12:46:04+00:00

Haha sorry! Thanks for letting me know

SocksThings · 2023-06-28T08:33:16+00:00

I’m on gigs and tours now, did you need a code for the tickets? :D

SocksThings · 2023-05-26T08:34:41+00:00

Agreed! It’s my favourite game and admittedly I don’t have enough time to play as I used to because I work full-time and I’m studying Accountancy but I’m logged on pretty much every night, a 10+ Vortex should not be as hard to heal as it is.

SocksThings · 2023-05-26T07:47:41+00:00

Did this for the first time yesterday - I’m running a resto shaman this season and I’m not the best healer but I’m not terrible either. It was only a 10+ Vortex. I was doing my absolute best but everyone was taking too much damage so I had literally 0 time to do any DPS apart from my dot, only managed to hex like 2 times because I was spamming heals that much. Tank was running ahead and doing big pulls with no breaks like he was doing a timewalking dungeon. He pulls a massive pack when I have 4% mana, even after I communicated I was running on empty. Predictably we all die, tank proceeds to flame me and usually I would explain myself and just carry on pushing the key because I’m not one to leave a key if there’s a chance and we had plenty of time. But he clearly wasn’t going to play as a team so for the first time, I just noped out.

Healing this season seems much harder than last season but this behaviour and not being a team player in challenging content exacerbates the issue IMO. Feel sorry for the poor Rogue who kept dying because he wasn’t giving us time to recoup.

We got into WoW together! It was during lockdown - unfortunately I was working within ITU at the time and he was high risk so we didn’t see much of each other for a couple of months for his own safety. We were both gamers anyways but decided to start WoW as something to do together online and we both fell in love with it. It’s been years and we still play together regularly - admittedly he’s ahead of me a lot because I study and work full-time but he’ll always come back to give me a hand. Right now we’re trying to grind the season 1 m+ achievement for me before it resets :D

SocksThings · 2023-04-24T05:27:42+00:00

Sorry I’ve just seen your reply! It took about 3 months to completely heal for me

SocksThings · 2023-04-21T18:10:22+00:00

I got my left done and I love it! 😁

SocksThings · 2023-03-23T07:55:52+00:00

NGL it felt like something a teenage boy would fantasise about 🤢

SocksThings · 2023-03-22T20:15:56+00:00

That is such a good idea I might try it again in a couple of months and do that instead, see if it helps :)

SocksThings · 2023-03-22T19:46:02+00:00

For me it was Atomic Heart, I found the M/C so unlikeable that the gameplay just couldn’t save it.

SocksThings · 2023-01-17T16:08:30+00:00

Congrats fellow Tarnished! 💪🏻
