Once Upon a Lifetime

Mostly a Homestuck/Fandom/Humor blog. I also post personal posts on occasion and excerpts of both fan and original fiction. I also make art. It will be either under the 'my art' tag or the 'bart' tag. My Homestuck essays are in the Homestuck tag.

Interesting so:

After developing new Dungeons for Guild Wars Reforged and seeing their success, they're now trying a new (unknown) form of content soon to come

After VoE they're taking a break from expansion content for Guild Wars 2 until Guild Wars 3 has released. Then they are returning to Annual Major Content updates for GW2.

During the break after VoE finishes they plan to spend an entire year to go through each area of the game to make 'meaningful improvements'

They're updating the Zhaitan fight in the personal story??

We're getting a GW2 New Orr map and it is a 'Core game addition, free for all to play'

Yeah I can vibe with that

“Ghosts are real” I can see how you could believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real” it’s very fair and rational that you believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real anymore” I’m about to hear a poem or very sad story

“Ghosts aren’t real yet” the fuck are you going to do

Gustave Caillebotte - The Floor Scrapers (1875-6)

Original on top, later version below

“Despite the effort Caillebotte put into the painting, it was rejected by France’s most prestigious art exhibition, The Salon, in 1875. The depiction of working-class people in their trade, not fully clothed, shocked the jurors and was deemed a ‘vulgar subject matter.’ 

The images of the floor scrapers came to be associated with Degas’s paintings of washerwomen, also presented at the same exhibition and similarly scorned as ‘vulgar’”.

General rules to live by:

You gotta be tough if you're gonna be stupid. You can do stupid shit all you want but you're not going to avoid suffering consequences.

If you can't be tough, you gotta be nice. People can forgive a lot of stupidity if you're polite about it and pleasant to be around.

You can't tell whether you're stupid or not. There is literally no way to know in advance, for absolute certainty, whether the thing you're just about to do is genius or stupid before it either splendidly succeeds or blows up in your face.
