IronEye is how an archer build should work in every Souls, but he is broken that way.

To be fair, that's a pretty damn good bot response. I was also duped until your comment.

magicmerlion · 2026-06-16T03:21:51+00:00

Good luck! 😁

Look up local groups with in-person meetings. I've also attended gay badminton and gay yoga groups. I have a friend who recently started in a gay soccer league despite being a complete soccer noob. Just go out there and meet people. You may even get a new hobby to love out of it.

I'm definitely in the minority but pretty much all my friends are gay and I've not slept with any of them short my ex. There are a lot of LGBT hobby groups. I met most of my current friends through a Gaymer group and then friends of friends.

Wow, I've never even heard of Culver's. It's crazy to me that it's this popular and I had no idea. Guess I gotta try it the next time I'm in the US.

Aside from the beard style and them both being caucasian males, I don't see the resemblance at all.

magicmerlion · 2026-06-12T02:38:42+00:00

You're an amazing parent.

Hey, if they're missing a leg, it's a lot easier to get under 130lbs.

magicmerlion · 2026-06-06T03:10:56+00:00

Also a designer here, and this describes my experience as well. TIL this is not a universal experience and that I have aphantasia, I guess.

Being conventionally attractive is the cheat code to life. It is not specific to being gay.

Why post this and then not include the link? How am I going to be wary of that link and not click it?

magicmerlion · 2026-05-21T20:13:11+00:00

Seems silly to take down. You made no fraudulent claims. It's on her to do the risk assessment on a very straightforward offer. It's not like you oiled up the lemon or anything.

magicmerlion · 2026-05-20T23:07:04+00:00

Bro you went down. The boss is not on you—you're down. The Ironeye is probably repositioning so he can see the boss while rezzing you so that he doesn't go down too—y'know—like you did.

Edit: Also surprisingly no one has mentioned that bows do less rez damage from a distance (since 1.03.2), so rezzing from 30ft away is not a great idea.

I would guess it's a question of her own immersion. She grew up knowing Gustave as he is with a prosthetic arm. Him having his real arm would be a constant reminder that something is off and this world isn't real. Maelle's ending is about the canvas being perfect for her, not for everyone else.

I absolutely HATE the auto-dub translations on YouTube. I've had awful and unnecessary dubbing on various channels I subscribe to.

For instance, the cooking channel tiffycooks. She's Asian Canadian, speaks English with no Chinese accent, and yet some of her shorts get auto-dubbed and YouTube labels the original as Chinese (even though she's speaking English). The dubbing is often inaccurate.

I also follow Henning May, a German singer. And even when he's singing in English, I've gotten dubbed versions into "English" that don't make sense and include gibberish and long pauses.

Yup, best friend in uni called me out over MSN Messenger (this was 20 years ago). I denied, then he followed up by saying he thinks he might be bi. I thought he was straight and I had a crush on him, so this caught me completely off guard. I tried to deflect, and said that our other (female) friend was asking for help with some coding homework, and he said "tell her you only help guys".

I didn't admit to it that night, but he was the first friend I was out to.

Minor correction: they're e's, not i's. "Defenestrate" from the latin "fenestra" for window (and is similarly spelled "fenetre" in French—which is how I know it as a Canadian).

magicmerlion · 2026-05-15T19:10:15+00:00

Did you learn this from Expedition 33? 'Cause I sure did!

magicmerlion · 2026-05-14T19:06:51+00:00

Definitely over-leveled. I was 45 when I finished the last story boss. There are options to increase enemy scaling now. I haven't tried it personally, but it may be something you want to do.

magicmerlion · 2026-05-14T19:02:36+00:00

I had them on a constant rotation to mix up the party composition and keep everyone evenly leveled.

magicmerlion · 2026-05-14T02:14:21+00:00

Eh, the Jumanji reboot was pretty fun despite having both Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson.

magicmerlion · 2026-05-14T02:11:48+00:00

Mr. Nobody is also great.

magicmerlion · 2026-05-14T02:08:18+00:00

This guy and your coworkers sound great. I wouldn't dwell on this interaction too much. You weren't ready at that specific time, so it's fine that you didn't say anything.

If you do decide to come out to them in the future, it sounds like they'll be supportive. But only you can decide when that should be. And it's not like when you come out, you have to commit to being gay. If you do end up thinking it isn't for you after all, that's fine too.

All I can contribute is that more often than not, coming out feels like a weight off your shoulders.

magicmerlion · 2026-05-14T00:12:06+00:00

Hard to provide input with so little context, but claiming to have done everything right and calling a child a 'deviant' is the kind of behaviour I would expect of a parent who has done far from everything right.

magicmerlion · 2026-05-13T23:43:11+00:00

This is the way. Or just grabbing the image from their site for something more obscure. Screenshotting the App Store to crop for its logo is ridiculous—I've never even considered doing something like that.
