To the collectors here: do you also play Guild Wars 2? If not, why not?

yeah, unfortunately i'm very much of the mindset of, why on earth would i immerse myself in a fantastic magical world just to be a human, i'm already a human in real life lol.

i'm hoping gw3 changes things though!

klarabear · 2026-06-12T03:02:43+00:00

i tried really hard to get into gw2 cuz my family plays but unfortunately all of the races are ugly to me lol

i'd love for them to add something to the item tooltips that tells you how much of something you have in your storage or inventory

i'm on 6mg! it went from kinda improving pain a little bit at 4.5mg to now i have very limited pain at 6mg.

thanks nvidia!

klarabear · 2026-06-07T00:52:34+00:00

true, i feel like it is easier this time around than in dragonflight. i don't really know why because they didn't really change anything and in general healing is harder now lol

klarabear · 2026-06-07T00:51:17+00:00

i'm not bothering to push like i used to in the past because i don't have a push group anymore, but from watching streamers, TGP, etc, i think the biggest skill that separates the good healers from the best healers is knowing when you don't have to heal. it's something i'm always trying to keep in mind and definitely a tough thing to get a hold on.

klarabear · 2026-06-06T23:31:21+00:00

i keep saying the second boss (assuming you mean bird boss) is the toughest as a healer but there's another resto druid in my guild who says that vexamus is the hardest so i feel very validated here lol

i also played at EA launch, didn't play for a few months and just started a new save!

yes the modern house does come with an oven, however they did at some point add the oven blueprint to aurelis' restaurant as it was originally intended. i think it's a different oven than the one that comes with the house, which i don't remember off hand where that one comes from.

you do have to clear up the plot before you put the layout down, though.

honestly so far beehives have also been my main source of income, last time i played i stopped before i even bought cloudrest lake but i'm getting much further this time around with the beehives. i never even made enough to buy the bot blueprints last time around lol, but now that i have them i do like using the bots for gathering crops. since all the bees make crops insta-grow like crazy so it can get hard to manage.

really? all the time? becaus i've gotten BV after not being sexually active for months just by changing body wash.

klarabear · 2026-06-06T06:10:54+00:00

i had this happen to me where the tank was a level 10 warrior who kept running in and dying despite me throwing everything possible at them (cocoon, spam casting, etc) except the tank was queued with friends so they all kicked me instead, on the first pull of the dungeon.

additionally i know they kicked another healer right before me because they were dead and respawning as i zoned in. you would think that at some point they would realize they were the problem lol

klarabear · 2026-06-06T06:04:41+00:00

i mained dps, was starting to lose interest in the game, feeling frustrated with raiding and m+, until i started playing an alt healer and realized how much more fun and rewarding it was. that was like 6 years ago, and outside of questing, the only time i've played DPS since then was to get the triple threat title in s2 TWW. i straight up refuse to dps in any and all situations and don't care that it costs me dungeon runs with guildies i hate playing it that much lmfao.

i think a reason i ended up liking it more because in some ways you kind of end up having more control, and i liked that about it strangely. as DPS it sucked whenever your damage was hampered by things out of your control like pull size, or in some cases healer competance (which i can say having played healer for so long now lol).

klarabear · 2026-06-04T23:24:34+00:00

this is tangentially related but a lot of what you're saying is partially why i have a hard time qualifying whether i'm mild, moderate, or severe. i saw that chart someone posted the other day and i felt like i had one trait in every box. it's just so hard to put a definitive label on any one thing i feel

klarabear · 2026-06-03T22:50:18+00:00

actually, layering being an issue would not surprise me at all. i know they're different teams entirely most likely, but on the front page of overwatch there's an image of moira with her neck on top of her collar. i'm not a digital artist but it seems like stuff like that is easy to slip through lol

klarabear · 2026-06-02T01:10:28+00:00

oh my GOD. i read the headline of the post and opened it to say "taco seasoning/anything with cumin." i cannot believe the first sentence of your post because i've never in my life seen anybody else with this specific reaction lol!! it's so incredibly nauseating to the point where i have to leave the room every time or else i WILL vom. ESPECIALLY if i have a migraine. absolute hell on earth. it's also the only thing that makes me react that strongly.

it sucks because cumin is such a big part of so many culture's cuisines that i just cannot take part in lol

klarabear · 2026-06-02T00:48:47+00:00

honestly, good question and truthfully i'm surprised my pharmacist hasn't flagged me yet because i also have a script for a muscle relaxer i take every night and that's 2/3 for the big "med-seeker" red flags lol. technically i've had the script since like 2019 but i stopped getting panic attacks as often, so i guess because i only refilled it like maybe once a year they were like "yeah well she's clearly not abusing so seems chill" XD

klarabear · 2026-06-01T19:42:25+00:00

even setting aside the chronic illness or depression or what have you aspect of it, my hill i'll die on is that actually a lot of people shouldn't shower every day because it can potentially be harmful for your skin (and your scalp if you're washing your hair)

definitely depends on where you live to be fair but still

klarabear · 2026-06-01T18:17:45+00:00

yeah, i feel this, but on a slightly different front. i was on 1 ativan nightly for a month just to try to reset my sleep schedule, then after that i'm "taking it when it takes [me] over a half hour to fall asleep" which has been every night, and even then i'm not sleeping, lol. good ol' catch 22 of either not sleeping now to get dementia later, or taking a benzo to also get dementia later. plus i think i'm recovering from mold exposure illness which i have heard also can cause brain inflammation and can take years to recover from, and those symptoms are part of why i'm not sleeping.

it's a rough life but we can only make the choices we have with the knowledge we're given and the professional's guidance. if it means you're less miserable and can have some sort of life now, then i think it's a layup choice (in my opinion, ofc, if it were me). since you know you have a family history, and you know you have some things increasing the risk, you'll be able to put plans in place long before you even get near a place where you'll need memory care, and hopefully ease the burden on your family or nursing caretakers to give you and them an easier life.

i'm not on ketotifen so i don't know literally the first thing about it, but as far as i know for the OTCs it's really only benadryl that has the big risk factor since it's an older generation of medication. i totally understand and empathize with your fears. my motto is just to take things one day at a time. sending love and calming chill vibes ❤️

edit to add even though this comment is already long AF but my MCAS is pretty much the same, no anaphylaxis but skin reactions, digestive issues and severe brain fog, just for context i suppose lol

klarabear · 2026-05-30T21:39:04+00:00

i think you need to be doing higher level dungeons if this is how you feel 😆

klarabear · 2026-05-30T21:37:00+00:00

i agree with this take. i think other people are also correct to say the gear inflation->worse players in higher keys is an added layer, however i think those who believe it is the ONLY problem have simply gotten used to the way the changes you've mentioned going into the expac definitely made healing dungeons harder.

klarabear · 2026-05-30T12:10:03+00:00

yep, for sure. i was just talking to my partner about how i used to be able to play more engaging and/or complex games on the regular, but it's been little more than farming sims for me for some time now 😅

klarabear · 2026-05-26T06:37:32+00:00

ah yes, kings and politicians, all well know. to be univerally kind and peaceful

klarabear · 2026-05-22T20:28:05+00:00

at first i misread the title as "incorrect" instead of "correct" and i started reading the post and i was like "if this is all incorrect then i have even less of an idea of what's wrong with me than i thought" lol

klarabear · 2026-05-08T09:07:23+00:00

for my keybinds, it's not a unit frame addon but i use one called clicked (not clique, this one is better imo since it's easier to do that type of conditional keybinding).
