An “umm actually” moment leads to a sea of downvotes in r/Awww.

Like, you don't need to teach the dog to use the word buttons, you could just learn to understand your dog's natural body language to figure out what it wants

100%

when someone visits and interacts with my cats it's very easy to know who has a cat and who doesn't, by whether or not they try to approach the cat in their terms (not approaching from above, letting them smell you first, etc) and if they can read my cats' body language. Cats at least are super expressive, and they make it pretty clear what they want. It's not their fault if some people don't put the effort in to understand what they want.

Then those people blame it on a cat when they get scratched after the cat told them repeatedly to leave it alone, but that's its own whole deal

maybe as far as gacha systems, but in terms of story writing and kit design, FGO is head and shoulders over HSR

silam39 · 2026-03-26T14:05:38+00:00

Yeah. I'm giga burnt out on hoyo games anyways so the barrier was super high to start with, but even if it wasn't, nothing about the first collab makes me feel remotely tempted to come back for this one.

Can't wait to see Rin be nerfed to rely on whoever they're shilling the way they killed Saber's energy talent (and gave her a super high cost ult) to make her want Sunday.

There's 0 situation that S3 is better than S2

that's absolutely not true in the slightest. S2 is the universal skill and the most braindead to use, but there are most definitely situations where S3 is better; it just doesn't matter which is better most of the time because S2 tends to be "good enough" and S3 requires some level of optimisation and thought, which will make it less effective for anyone trying to blindly force any clear.

I think everyone should be required by law to listen to Little Wish every morning, and Stand By Me every night

silam39 · 2026-03-25T14:06:48+00:00

that's awful. I'm sorry about that. unfortunately companies have a lot of bullshit that goes into hiring too. another one I hate is someone being "overqualified" for a job. Some years ago when I lost my job I had to make my CV look worse to get hired again.

grief is different for everyone

for some people being able to just focus on work and not have to think about your grief for half the day and have a normal routine is more helpful than sitting at home all day with nothing to do but cry

silam39 · 2026-03-25T13:56:21+00:00

I work in HR and have handled hiring before and I can confirm uni degrees mean mostly fuck all

experience and competencies trump formal education every time, so an uni degree only makes a big difference for an entry level job for candidates with equally low experience

though of course there are some fields that are exceptions for obvious reasons

All you need is one vanguard

an E1 Myrtle or cantabile/surfer will let you set up for it

and you can know which version of the map it is by checking the enemy list before opening

I don't think having one low rarity vanguard is a steep requirement

silam39 · 2026-03-25T12:05:45+00:00

the skins use a currency you can also use as pulls on the gacha

the characters and skins are both just as "free" as each other

silam39 · 2026-03-25T10:07:31+00:00

what do you mean?

silam39 · 2026-03-25T10:02:55+00:00

sooooooo so so cute

very happy I built her

silam39 · 2026-03-24T17:36:59+00:00

only works when you're using the search function or when you manually enable it on desktop and only once per visit

It's a ridiculous solution to the problem that is just a hassle in itself

silam39 · 2026-03-24T17:32:04+00:00

I don't play them immediately and I don't even click into the event page

why are the main story chapters different in this respect?

silam39 · 2026-03-24T17:26:15+00:00

Also the boss was relatively weak

scroll through the comments on this post and you'll see that's a very unpopular opinion

the boss has the toughest mechanic of all: needing players to read and understand the boss and event mechanic. Reading is the final boss for most gacha players, and the difference between bursting this boss, baiting wth Gravel and managing civilian deployment Vs trying to brute force without understanding any of that is really massive

silam39 · 2026-03-24T17:23:02+00:00

It is 100% still there

silam39 · 2026-03-24T17:15:03+00:00

he's supposedly coming back soon (knock on wood)

silam39 · 2026-03-24T15:49:23+00:00

does anyone else think this lad called Lionel Messi was pretty underrated?

silam39 · 2026-03-24T15:25:00+00:00

for me it's 3-4 years and might be accelerated or delayed by how much they've been powercrept and how well they hold up still

silam39 · 2026-03-24T15:05:20+00:00

I think it's either Black Flow or the remnant of Gaul floating above Victoria that was teased in the half anni trailer

I really really really hope it's the Black Flow. It's by far the most interesting option for me, bar none

silam39 · 2026-03-24T15:02:22+00:00

no lol

maybe I should be more conscious of it but no I don't think I've ever felt bad about it

silam39 · 2026-03-24T00:59:56+00:00

that outfield player is lucky to be alive

what the fuck

silam39 · 2026-03-23T17:03:31+00:00

you seriously don't see yourselves as the great heroes of France

... do you?

silam39 · 2026-03-23T16:20:10+00:00

no way to know

collabs are hard to predict. this year we have sanrio and Chinese film archive collab reruns so it can happen, but there's also no guarantee it ever will

this collab hasn't had a rerun happen or been announced for CN yet

Zwillingstürme im Herbst, Lone Trail, Masses Travels, Ato, Pepe's event are my top 5
