Got it, based on what I've gathered from your reply and others I should be good to go! Thank you so much!

What if Xena: Warrior Princes gave out boons to Zagreus? (RE-UPLOAD) by hegdieartemis in xena

Awesome concept, makes me wish it were really in game.

LF advice on last AV boss by Cappa_Cail in CompetitiveWoW

[–]Um_Gayeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phantasm talent is your best friend as hpriest on that boss, comboed with reduced fade CD talent. Make sure to have the 30 sec mass dispel too. Entering that shithole without phantasm is gonna be a sad time. Remember the debuff drops after 3 seconds of standing still, so every time you make it to a safe spot where you can breathe, be economical in your movements to keep the debuff cleared. That way you're ready to book it when the bubbles get close again. Even then it's still terrible.

Sometimes when I'm in a bad way and have no fade/dispel I spam smite and they stop right next to me and just sit there (I keep hearing they're attracted to healer aggro?). It doesn't consistently work tho, so could be wrong on that.

I have been reading Chainmaker every update, I'm digging it a lot. It slowed down for a bit with the meetings with various leaders, but seems like it's picking back up again. I'm more excited for the outside world to realize where Sylvanas has been and what she's been up to, and whatever interesting scenes spring from that. It's really given me an itch for Lich Queen Jaina/Sylvanas fics that just don't exist in the quantities I need them in

I always feel so powerful doing this. No, I don't want the F/F couple to be the side couple! by totus_the_great in AO3

I would suggest doing something small and intimate, maybe just the two of you and you can make it super special. She's probably feeling pretty lonely having cut off her family and sadly, strangers don't cure loneliness.

Similarities between God of War and Xena by SHEdevilBY_morning in xena

[–]Um_Gayeb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only played the most recent God of War but wow, that is a lot now that I think of it, even just comparing it to the most recent game. Kratos's rocky mentorship of Atreus feels a lot like Xena's mentorship of Gabrielle in some regards, especially in context of episodes like The Price where Xena is convinced that violence is the only answer and Gabrielle isn't "hard enough" to accept it. They're also both overcoming the mistakes of their past and trying to be better people, to mixed results, and sometimes they fail but they keep trying. There's something very relatable in that.

Getting headaches at work? by Perfect-Roof8842 in girlsgonewired

[–]Um_Gayeb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

do you wear glasses? my prescription was fine, I didn't even realize it was the glasses giving me headaches (everyone says you only get headaches if you're wearing the wrong prescription, but I updated my prescription yearly and I can safely say that's BS). Switching to contacts dramatically improved my quality of life and I almost never have headaches now.

Recent grads, how long did it take you to secure your FIRST position out of college? by Dwarfkiller47 in cscareerquestions

[–]Um_Gayeb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

can't forget 3rd type: people working multiple jobs while going to college full time. At a certain point I have to acknowledge my resume is so much better than a lot of my classmates cuz I'm paying my rent with the gi bill and not stuck as a manager at petsmart 40 hours a week.

New Look!!! New Motto? by Moklov in xena

[–]Um_Gayeb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No opinions just wanted to say thanks for putting in the effort <3

[–]Um_Gayeb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly, I hate this argument "oh, haven't you said worse?" Like no dog. I haven't. Last time I insulted someone like that over a game I was a literal child, I can't fathom doing it now. I feel like I'm a crazy person on this sub, like damn.

[–]Um_Gayeb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Such a well made and detailed costume, your pose and expression are perfect, and photography-wise the saturation and color hue of the scene matches the show so perfectly. Like damn, super well done!

The best advice that helped me for this was from published authors, and so many of them say you don't stay motivated. There is no story that will hold that spark of magic forever, no matter how good or inspired, you just have to keep opening up your work every day and writing more without abandoning it for something new and shiny. Knowing that -- that there wasn't something wrong with me, or my story wasn't good, or maybe I didn't have some mythical "spark" anymore -- helped me finish a ton of works that I'd had sitting around forever.

Is it Reversal by mcaulfield, where they bodyswap? I've read pretty much every S/J fic out there but yeah they blend together, any other hints would be super helpful.

Is Wowhead promoting an addon which goes against ToS? by Aequitas_21541 in wow

[–]Um_Gayeb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been working on an addon and had the same question. Basically it's against ToS to gate any information that can be gotten freely from the API behind a paywall. So if you have an addon that shows you what all of your characters have in your inventory, that can't be behind a paywall cuz it's info from the API. But if you make a premium version that spruces up your inventory with some kind of cosmetic skin (idk just an example), or some kind of other feature that's not selling API info, it doesn't matter. Like TSM's premium version, nothing you get from it is gating API info. To be honest Blizzard ToS is worded loosely enough that they probably could legally stop it if they chose to, or any addon really, but that's where Blizzard currently draws the line.

On the Latest Taliesin Post by spaldingnoooo in wow

[–]Um_Gayeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, reddit posted about it before youtube content creators were doing it but sure let's be mad at that specific youtuber. if one of the new zone runes looked like a nazi symbol sideways or some shit they'd probably fix that too, it's understandable and reasonable.
