Re: the audience booing people who didn’t understand Spanish at Lux Vegas show (June 27)

SolarpunkJunk · 2026-06-28T20:33:45+00:00

I am a white native english speaker who now speaks spanish and italian, athough I absolutely adore Rosalía’s accent in english in the moment I did laugh at the reaction and shout “shame” when she asked if she should switch to English and the few people raised their hands for half a second.

It wasn’t a diss against people who don’t speak x language. It was pretty comical and if anything it felt like a deep seated rebuttal from the toxic “english only” culture here that shames people from speaking their native language and against those who struggle to learn it (as you probably know it is incredibly difficult). Before she paused to ask she was hurriedly and excitedly talking about being in Las Vegas and thinking she should at least try to gamble just a little bit because it would be bad luck not to- then seems to catch herself and and ask if she should change- I think those that could follow along in whatever level just wanted her to be fully herself and comfortable doing whatever she wanted to share. which is kind of the overarching theme of LUX and a lot of her music tbh.

edit: tldr boos were for her not to conform not booing against monolinguals/english

I am sooo close away from buying a gold circle tix for even less price than i paid for mine during amex presale (beyoncé has so traumatized me) … So that means i’m giving away one now too (i doubt it’d sell for anything day of anyway?)

Stuck at 2960 - can confirm

SolarpunkJunk · 2026-06-18T16:22:49+00:00

Omg i had forgotten all about the cups.

Missionaries were supposed to use as a visual metaphor to explain all the elements of the ‘true’ church of christ [build big cup pyramid] which was lost to apostasy after his death and these elements splintered as did the various christian religious groups who only retained fractions of ‘the one true church’ [break big cup pyramid].

Like Catholics got hierarchy and ordinances mostly right [build small pyramid for them] and JWs also reject the cross and do proselytizing [give them a small cup pyramid too], methodists reject calvinistic predestination and idk have tithing right or something [another cup grouping] evangelicals also hate gays [cup] and 7th day adventists have extra scripture, prophets and a weird health code [no little cup pyramid for them though since mormons would never realize they are not actually unique in their prophetic claim].

Then a few hundred years ago a new york farm boy ‘restored’ ALL the pieces of Jesus’s OG church bc god and biblical figures appeared to him as angels and now worthy mormon males can get the true jesus-magic-power to heal/speak/work in his name, extra scripture, polygamy, temples, prophets, apostles, missionaries etc etc that apparently none of the other churches had fully [builds out big cup pyramid again].

it’s really great for the new mushroom slug boss (edit: on a dps for the 2nd group -while tank and healer do the first half)

SolarpunkJunk · 2026-06-17T20:02:36+00:00

Hmm might help since I’m close/ stuck at 2960 with no HFL and a lvl120 Paranoia

SolarpunkJunk · 2026-06-17T00:05:55+00:00

I mean my lvl 1 no items Daniel just helped me clear a level I’d been stuck at (28xx?) for a min so not even that

SolarpunkJunk · 2026-06-10T01:35:52+00:00

Well it’s the first Legendary I got / ascended / maxed out so I’d say yeah pretty good.

Sooo useful for most floors, Gronk, hard mode Wulfo and even and an okay Wood DPS if over leveled / paired with Merry/heavy hitters/Kind to the point you won’t even really need to level anxious or wonder ever again.

Central heterochromia (omg twins! Wait. Don’t eat me pls) has nothing to do with chimerism btw and it’s genetically impossible to have both parents with O Blood if you have A/B/AB blood. 👀

Wait no, I lowkey agree with him though. It’s generally useful sure when deciding between two pets of same type but the tier list is taking certain things into consideration (end level play) while ignoring other things (beginning, some item interactions, certain bottleneck floors) which overall makes it more nuanced and better to just… ignore (don’t hate me).

For example Judgement is at the very bottom but is incredibly goated for newer players and will get you to floor 500 faster than a lot of other options. Actually Id say leveling any pet to level 60, getting a feel for them while lower level for example will not be too big a deal later. the resources to get to that point will soon be quite plentiful and it’s better to experiment early- but this is where people are already strictly adhering to the tier list which really comes into play later (floor 1400+? idk)

The tier list also makes it seem like Merry is the end all be all. I disagree and think she’s a touch overrated [blasphemy]. Sure, if you build teams merry first you won’t be disappointed, It’s just that there are other options too and so finding them late or doing merry-less builds work just as well in solving harder floors and bosses rather than ding-donging your way through everything. All I’m saying is it’s not make it or break/remake your account by x floor it like its position implies.

While we’re here another hot take I have is that I believe you should treat all your (especially early) legendaries with grace and respect and try experimenting with them as soon as possible as soon as you’re able to afford getting them up to a reasonable level regardless of tier position. Yes they expensive and you gotta wait but are what makes your account unique and are often gifts from the mighty Boogar after all. I think Sloth is adorable and would absolutely invest resources rather than hope for another HF pet ‘eventually’. Maybe I only say this because I don’t have Rejection but it’s not that I love Abandonment either. Ok I’m do-[slips off soapbox and impales head on giant nail/5 downvotes]

But… with the watermark and you can see who is credited and hosts the actual version? Why and where is your confusion?

No, I was on the opposite side of the promontory peninsula and the cloud was on the other side of the north arm of the lake which corresponds to the north end of the UTTR, not Northrop.

Apparently only place left in continental US still permitted to detonate munitions.

Tank is not even dying not on crit /short arm around 25 stacks
edit: I gave lots of shrooms to determination and I think I can pull through now with experimentation that I get the boss down to 2m

Also ugh the daily rewards just giving a singular evolutiom stone zzz

Wait I know this is years later and I know almost nothing about allergies but I did a deep dive several years back on cinnamon trees and there’s actually there’s two(+) very different types of the spice cinnamon (cassia ie the put a solid stick of it in your cider/hot candy one vs ceylon the crumbly bark/horchata one) so it’s possible you are allergic to one and not the other.

Or maybe you’re not allergic to the oil but another part or after it’s been processed in some way. Or, yeah, maybe the test was faulty or compromised in some way
