I bought some holly today, so tomorrow I can have a small holly day.

I actually dig how Ororon looks like this edgy Moze-wannabe, but he's actually just an idiot cabbage farmer
Unrelated but are the wolf ears I'm being told he has actual ears or is it like Dehya's "ears" actually being just her hair?
They look like wolf ears, idk, think they're real?

I'm the opposite, Ajaw made me pull.
I play using the Japanese voice acting and Ajaw's fun sounding in Japanese, but I also play without sound a lot of the time once I've listened to all the music and heard the voices.

Fun fact: The JP VAs were both in Naruto together. Ajaw's VA was Naruto and Kinich's VA was Sasuke.
I swap between EN and CN. EN voice acting was pretty bad this patch, with Paimon being one of the few with a proper mic setup. The rest needed some de-essers and pop filters, sheesh.

That said, I just played through this patch's Natlan story and it destroyed me emotionally. I think this has got to be one of the best scenes of its type I have witnessed in games in a long while, if not ever. Easily top 3. A++

Back to Sumeru/finishing up Inazuma world quests.

Ajaw stopped me from pulling on Kinich because his voice annoys me to hell and back.

I was being cheeky, of course, so no need to reply. I was merely saying to our gibberish-named friend that I like the Proboards editor because I don’t have to press “preview post” in order to see my post in full, without the blemish of code tags. I am quite aware if you use specific templates on Proboards, you inescapably suffer from having to see those tags, whereas Jcink’s preview post button will always cleanly reproduce the post it will publish.

But I don’t like writing with a lot of code tags in my writing field, so no matter what, I do not like Jcink’s old-fashioned editor that hasn’t changed since the days of InvisionFree. And I don’t use those cumbersome Proboards templates, so to me, writing with all the code around it is a unique punishment you can choose to inflict on yourself.

That's why I prefer proboards' WYSIWYG editor over Jcink's archaic "preview post" nonsense where the rest is in [ugly code tags] unless you're an enlightened spirit and don't use templates. In which case, there's just bold and italics tags, and if you're me, increased font size tags.
it's the other way around, pb is the one that is just [ ugly code tags ] b/c many pb templates have to use the ipokemon style plugin, which doesn't work (and can often break) in the pb previews being that it's... a plugin. unless you mean the post editor itself, which; again if you use templates, you often can't use proboards wysiwyg anyway. jcink turns out to be (able to be) neater for the sole fact that you aren't forced to either use all inline style or the style tag plugin, which is a little hacky and weird to read.

(please understand my pain of coding and writing in pb of having to post something for the entire world to see and only then be able to review and make changes)

I can't get Jcink to look anything like this, it just looks like the image I attached below. Since I apparently have it the other way around, can you explain to me how to get Jcink post editor to look like the Proboards WYSIWYG interface?

Anyone have some pointers on how to beat writer's block?
Sit down and write something, anything. It doesn’t have to be the post you intended to make, and it doesn’t have to be good. Let it be meandering and bad and uninteresting, but write it anyway. Often times, that’ll get you in the mindset to write, and you’ll be able to discard the monstrosity and then get to writing something real.

My new weird character idea is to be someone's cat.

When I hit AR45 I just got the artifacts from the secret chambers and called it a day, I still have to put gold artifacts on the rest of my team anyway!

C1 Kinich though, because I supremely enjoy this man. 
I got two of Raiden spears so c1 Kinich is on rerun for me, lol. I am trying to optimize, use the optimizer for teams and stuff, but I'm really not that good at it. The game is getting uniquely on my nerves but fun. I do wish that that dungeon would give me more than just flowers/feathers that are good on set. He's really fun though and I like to go zooming around. Way more fun than the other two introduced but I also just like Ajaw. He's just a quirky little dude. Probably yells slurs in COD lobbies type of vibe. Have you managed to get the rings completed yet?
Ajaw is what sold me on Kinich, really. Really dig their dynamic, but I also just really like his gameplay.

I did get all the rings completed around AR40, so it was an arduous five ranks until I actually got to craft them... Felt pretty worth, I got some good stuff from it. (Though my Dendro% Sands with CritRate/CritDMG put everything into flat HP...)

I don't think I entirely understand why some sites mandate specific writing perspectives. What if I want to write in present tense second person because that's how my creative juices flow best?
it bothers some people, idk.

i just don't join sites with those rules. they're a hard dealbreaker for me.
Yeah, I’ve alao decided to skip these sites now. I don’t want rules around how to write. I’m happy to write third person to accommodate people who find other prrspectives awkward, but I want my writing style to be a choice and not a prescription.
