Confused about wtf a blorbo is cause I’m not online enough so I asked my elder sibling and was told a blorbo is a character that you really like and just want to put in a situation.

And I was like oh so Grace. Grace is Eva’s blorbo. And I’ve never seen someone look so disappointed in me for being right.

Okay. As long as I'm thinking about FFXIV today, here's a question for my fellow players. If you have played and have a decent memory of most (if not all) of the base ARR starting jobs, I'd be curious to know!

Which starter job has the most lore relevant (or lore interesting) story? And/or, which job gives you the most context for the world at large?

CNJ / WHM (Padjal & elementals)

ARC / BRD (Racism & moogles)

LNC / DRG (More racism & bonus Estinien)

ACN / SMN / SCH (Pirates, magic theory, and Nymian history)

MRD / WAR (Monster hunting)

THM / BLM (All Void, all the time)

PGL / MNK (Fighting & Ala Mhigo)

GLD / PLD (More fighting & political corruption)

Remaining time: 4 days 14 hours

... no, there's no bald option, and I know if I open it up to anything beyond base game this will turn into more waxing poetic about the DRK storyline, which is legit but not the question I'm asking. I'm more curious about what starter class you think provides the most immersion into the overall ARR story, if any!

If I’ve learnt anything from my contact with the bdsm community, the poly community, the geek community and the atheist community is that any social group who claims to “not to be like other groups” and to be"accepting and safe for all" is going to spend a lot of energy hiding the predators within the community and silencing abuse survivors.

if i could only reblog one post, this would be it.

[pusheen-the-radical]

if nothing else, its a basic tolerance paradox: if you are tolerant of everyone, you will eventually become tolerant of intolerance. if you are safe for ‘everyone’ you are by definition safe for predators. its actually really good to discriminate and put rules and lines in the sand down, and expel people who break/cross them.

A four dimensional doctor would be absurdly good at treating three-dimensional patients.

surgeries require no external incisions.

every location in the body is operable.

medicine can be administered precisely to organs.

scanners are largely obsolete.

internal deformities can be spotted at routine checkups.

organs can be manipulated with minimal effect on the surrounding tissue.

Okay, I gotta say this nuance aloud, though maybe everyone already understood it.

When people discuss the importance of using things, such as special plates, candles, special clothes- they will say that it's best to use them all the time, and that this makes each day special or something like that.

Which is only part of the picture if you ask me.

It's good not to hoard things forever, but if you use everything all the time, it also leaves certain special times as kind of indistinct from anything else. Like having a Christmas tree up all year kind of takes something away from it.

So here's my rephrasing: special things should have a concrete time of use, not an abstract one.

If you have an outfit you love but have it dedicated to only wear once a year on a specific day? Totally fine! You are using it, and it is contributing something to your life.

If you have plates that you'll only use 'for a special occasion' but haven't touched them in years? Evidently you don't know how to recognize a special occasion and should try and think of more specific qualifiers.

Some nice things make every day special, and others make certain times unique. It doesn't have to be one or the other, there's also joy in restraint. You just have to make sure perfectionism isn't slipping into how you use the ones that are only for some of the time.
