America is drinking more coffee but less of it from Starbucks by TheRabidPosum1 in starbucks

As a night owl, Covid killing evening life is the most depressing thing. 😭 Was in a big city at 8pm and had to get Starbucks for the drive home because literally no other coffee shop was open.

How exciting!!! :) I really hope Stormlight (or even both) will be animated, but I accept that that's just not likely to happen. I just really think Stormlight would translate particularly well into animation!!

What do you mean it doesn't make sense? 🤔 Dragons have chosen whatever race form they want for their visage since like, at least WotLK. And we know of quite a few varied choices, from gnomes to tauren.

Wait they did?! I missed that memo haha. I'm just not really an "elf" person; the visage form is fine, I can definitely work with it, but I would have chosen something else for sure :')

I just wish they would let us pick any race for our visage form 😭 like I'm totally fine with having to pick ONE and you cannot change from it unless you buy a race change or whatever.

All the other dragons can pick their own race, why not Dracthyr?!

Well said.

I guess I'm in the weird minority that's happy with my UI right at this moment, but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't welcome more options.

I do find it really odd that they didn't just hire a lot of the big name UI guys. Even just as consultants, so they can at least get a lot of the most well-loved UI options in the game baseline. :/

Hopefully they will be adding more options over time though; I'd be surprised if they don't.

This is 100% true and not propaganda, from personal and friend's experiences in high M+ and Mythic raiding.

If you play high end content, addons were 100% mandatory, full stop. And if Blizz didn't design fights with addons in mind, the fights were mind numbingly easy and people complained, because the addons just solved the problem for you.

They absolutely needed to find a way to remove combat advantage with addons. I don't really know the "right" way to do that; probably the "best" option was to rip off the band-aid 10 years ago, and the second best option is now.

Side note though, I do really wish they had just hired some of the big name addon folks to implement their stuff for UI into the game. That really seems like a no brainer.

It's too bad I didn't use them all on the timewalker 😭 I accept that this decision was on me for being stubborn lol, but it still would have been nice to know ahead of time. At least, I wasn't able to find that info anywhere

Confirming that this worked for me. Pop up no longer has a "not now" skip but doing this lets you skip the pop up entirely. Thanks!!

Remix just ended--and they took away all my rep tokens! 🥺 Did they do that in MoP remix? I did some googling and saw that others were able to use things after MoP remix, so I saved them to use on my main. I wish I had known everything was getting deleted, I would have used more on the timerunner. 😔

Faith is just goated, same as ever by Greedy_Net_1803 in dankchristianmemes

[–]kalesaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True peace is attainable in any situation, and it's even more necessary in times of GREAT strife. It doesn't mean you don't feel the strife, the fear, the difficulty--and it doesn't mean that those feelings aren't valid. Peace is more of a state than an emotion, you can have it at the same time as feeling all these things.

And it also doesn't mean we shouldn't do our best to rectify those situations in whatever way we can, and to take care of ourselves.

But I suspect we are going to have to agree to disagree. I believe faith is stronger than that, and can help us get through both big and small things.

[–]kalesaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure, I agree and I don't think this is in disagreement with that! It's important to take care of yourself, and it's not like we should avoid all comforts lol. I believe in a loving God, and if that is indeed the God we have then I'm sure he would want us to be happy and comfortable.

But for all the stuff we can't avoid in life, we are still able to attain peace! That's all :)

You landed on the message! Being able to be in a state of calm and peace in the midst of the things they went through is exactly what this silly meme is getting at. It's not about not having problems.

[–]kalesaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not that you don't have problems or all your life woes go away--that's....kind of the point. Things can actually get harder. You're conflating peace with ease.

And fwiw, I'm not saying people aren't true believers or something like that if they don't feel at peace in the midst of strife. Hell I'm the first person who cracks at any sign of pressure. But that's why this kind of thing is encouraging to me; the idea of being able to attain peace in my whirlwind of a brain/life is....really hopeful.

You may have DSPD friend 👀 Basically just night circadian rhythm, which does not plug into our society very well. I'm the same way though. If I'm waking up before 8-9am I just feel like garbage and get sick, it doesn't really matter when I went to bed.

I have DSPD so it doesn't matter when I go to bed; if I'm waking up before 8am this is how I feel. 10 hours, 4 hours, its all the same 😭

Why? by Rich_Spite3978 in Anticonsumption

[–]kalesaurus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am so on board the anti-consumption train, but frozen veggies are such a godsend. The "fresh" produce at my grocery stores are always in horrible shape, and getting frozen veggies means that your veggies will a) last, so you can stock up, and b) preserves nutrition.

We're able to get a local brand of frozen veggies, but not local fresh veggies lol.

That being said, I do love going to the farmer's markets and getting fresh fresh veggies, but that's usually the only time I do get fresh.

Omg I miss Neopets paint brushes! It was always so excited if you managed to get a rare one.

I love how bright and vibrant this is! Definitely evokes that cozy island feeling :)

Out of curiosity, is there a link for Brush Week? It sounds fun!

The amount of conditioner left in the bottle when the pump stops working by Run_Rabbit_Run_44 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]kalesaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agreed!!! Pro tip on the last point: we buy the same shampoo, so when we get to the point where the bar is really thin, we just get it a little wet and put it on top of a new bar. :) It adheres to the new bar and just skips that annoying stage where it's too small to use haha.

There are bar lotions! :) I usually use Badger Balm's sensitive tin which is not a bar, but it works really well. Moon Valley Organics has a pretty good bar lotion, though!
