Goodbye angarus-valentius, hello catarina-yunara.

Oh nooo I hadn’t noticed that my cat’s automatic feeder was getting low on food so as usual she dashed off when she heard the machine start but I couldn’t hear the usual sound of her food falling into the bowl so I went to look and my poor cat was just. Sitting there. Staring at her empty food bowl. Then for a second she glanced up at me then right back to her bowl with the biggest, saddest, most bewildered eyes you could ever imagine on such a small creature. I filled her bowl and the machine right away ofc but I still feel a little guilty 😭

Soulslike where as you complete various objectives it gradually becomes clear that your camp is accumulating conspicuously barefoot level up maidens.

[prokopetz]

Each has her own distinct advancement paradigm which would offer some truly disgusting cross-class builds, except how well they synergise depends on their relationship levels with each other rather than with you. Advanced buildcraft thus obliges you to play level up maiden matchmaker.

[prokopetz]

Each level up maiden also functions as the primary equipment vendor for her advancement paradigm's respective "class"; you begin to suspect that at least some of them are slanting the upgrades they offer in order to encourage you to put on specific clothing.

you know it's actually weirder that Fromsoft hasn't released this exact game yet.

You're a really annoying soulslike monster. How do you lurk?

I perch like a gargoyle on some high vantage, glowering down at the world

I submerge myself in noisome muck with only my eyes poking above the surface

I wait behind a trap door or breakable wall, then burst out like BLAAARG

I look exactly like a pile of trash, debris, and/or bones until I stand up

I dwell in a deep and narrow hole and bite you when you try to look inside

I snipe you at range from a direction you wouldn't intuitively think to look

I come flying in from outside the camera's draw distance at Mach Fuck

I resemble some harmless environmental feature, forcing you to smash them all

I go invisible under certain conditions; can't go wrong with the classics!

I don't "lurk", as such, I just have a really bullshit spawn trigger

Other (specify)

Ironically, hard light is bad for recording sexy time.

It will highlight every pore, every vein, every wrinkle on your nutsack.

One day I will end this ring light fad. It is my ultimate side quest.

[sirfrogsworth]

It seems my lighting advice has given people a mistaken impression...

[sirfrogsworth]

These outtakes where the flash didn't go off are also AI generated.

I like this spooky dutch angle one.

I was just starting to learn flash and I didn't have all the equipment I needed. Since corgis are quite short, I had to put the lighting on the ground. The off camera flash was on a tipped over lightstand with a shoot-through umbrella to diffuse the light.

But I had no wireless triggers. And the only other way to trigger a flash, is with another flash. So I used the on-camera pop up flash to trigger the main flash.

But I had two issues.

First, I did not want that dinky on camera flash affecting my picture.

Second, triggering a flash with a flash is best done indoors. The flash will bounce all around the room and eventually hit the sensor so the main flash triggers. When you are outdoors, there is no bouncing.

SO... I took a little handheld makeup mirror and angled it toward my main flash. This blocked the dinky pop up flash and sent the beam of light towards the main flash to trigger it.

I was lying on the wet morning grass, holding a camera in one hand, a mirror in the other, trying to aim the mirror exactly toward the main flash, making crazy noises to get Otis's attention, and trying to get the focus point on his face so I didn't get a blurry photo. Also, Otis was much more interested in sniffing things than posing for a photo.

Here is an overhead view that might help explain.

I await all of your comments saying my amazing drawring is clearly AI generated.

Only 30% of the time did the flash actually go off. Aiming the mirror was tricky and I was doing like 8 things at once. I wasn't even sure I got the photo I wanted. But when I came back to the computer there was one that stood out and it is one of my favorites I've ever taken.

It was the best combination of monumental effort, great discomfort, perfect foggy sunrise light, and just pure luck.

Unfortunately, people like me who use advanced sculpting light techniques are getting accused of using AI more and more. Not really sure what to do about it—other than show the 30 awful photos it took to get the good one.

My 80s sunglasses photo and spoon photo get called out the most.

But it's just good old fashioned gradient lighting which has been used in product photography since the days of film.

So, no need to be suspicious.

Photography like sirfrogsworth's is what the fucken AIs were TRAINED on.

I do fucking love Ranni so much, hilarious character. Steals death to kill her half brother. Discards her original body to look like a cute little blue doll instead. Lies to the Tarnished, who presumably just arrived in the country and who none of this means anything to, about her name for some reason. When confronted later, immediately brazenly admits she lied to you, and also that she's the one who had Godwyn assassinated, which somehow no one had figured out before. Sees through the Tarnished and Rogier's plan immediately, but still lets them work for her (because "there's nothing wrong with a well-laid scheme", but is it really that well-laid if you already know what our goal is?). Says shit like "I shall soon enter my slumber". Literally turns into a pocket-sized version of herself and gets so fucking pissed off when you see through that "disguise". You can marry her in game, and she'll give you a sword for it. Did I forget anything

[divaofdivaofdiva]

She’s even funnier in Elden Ring’s cinematic trailer where she’s all like “Oh golly, I sure do wonder who orchestrated Godwyn’s assassination” like it wasn’t her who orchestrated said assassination.

you have to dress in this style for the rest of your life!

(you do not have to follow the beliefs associated with the style if that style has associated beliefs. The wheel curse does not affect anything like that.)

Do you like it?

yes!!

it's okay I guess

no

NO.

I dress like this already
