00:00.28 | Hachiman | Aye |
00:00.41 | Monet | Ron's great talent, If I remember, is that he's...well Ron. |
00:02.11 | Monet | Oh wait actually I think he was actually a good wizard |
00:02.13 | Hachiman | Meanwhile Harry is the Chosen One so there's not really all that much tension with him in hindsight |
00:02.49 | Monet | Ron once disarmed Bellatrix. |
00:03.23 | NeonPanda | Ron iirc was more known for what else he could do, like his emotional strength, being good at literally lethal chess, e.t.c. |
00:03.56 | Monet | Oh yeah he was a real wizard at chess. |
00:04.08 | Tybusen | ba dum ts |
00:04.21 | NeonPanda | being really good at chess also means he's quite smart in a logical sense, even if he doesn't show i |
00:04.23 | NeonPanda | it* |
00:04.31 | Monet | Ron was a good soldier. |
00:04.38 | DrodoEmpire | test |
00:04.41 | Tybusen | Out of the main three, Ron was also the only one who grew up with magic |
00:05.19 | NeonPanda | I still love that Hermione is the internet's accepted "If I went to Hogwarts" state, like holy crap magic exists must learn all the magic |
00:05.46 | Monet | And had a lot of exposure too given Ron had, what, four brothers and one sister? |
00:05.53 | NeonPanda | mhm |
00:06.07 | NeonPanda | and lived in a house primarily held up by magic |
00:06.28 | Hachiman | Yeah I think it's a given that the Marauders and Tom Riddle were a little more potent or competent than their modern counterparts |
00:06.31 | Monet | Harrry grew up inside a cupboard and Hermione, until she was 11 was that nerdy girl in primary school. |
00:06.33 | Tybusen | Ron's advantage over Hermione and Harry at least is knowing how magic society is structured |
00:08.20 | Monet | Storywise, Ron was a guide. |
00:08.28 | Tek0516 | I find it amusing that the credits for the Civilization VI theme contain credits for "Lyrics by Leonardo da Vinci". XD |
00:08.52 | NeonPanda | I'm sure he wrote music at one point in time |
00:09.13 | Monet | Among all the other things he did, probably |
00:09.39 | Hachiman | Also, question |
00:10.01 | Hachiman | Actually no don't worry |
00:10.11 | Tek0516 | I think it was that the lyrics for the song consist largely of a quote from him. |
00:10.23 | Monet | I like hearing questions. |
00:10.45 | Hachiman | I was gonna ask, how are you supposed to carry a sheathed two-handle longsword / greatsword |
00:11.04 | DrodoEmpire | handed you mean? |
00:11.07 | NeonPanda | well there's a couple ways, assuming you're not talking slung over your back in a carry sheath |
00:11.10 | Hachiman | Yeah handed |
00:11.31 | Tybusen | Sounds like you'd probably have a sheath strapped to your back |
00:11.34 | Hachiman | I don't mean slung over back because apparently it would be almost physically impossible to draw |
00:11.35 | DrodoEmpire | Well yeah I figure its one of those very rare times its even remotely acceptable to wear a back-scabbard |
00:11.48 | DrodoEmpire | And you draw the weapon well ahead of a fight |
00:12.08 | NeonPanda | ok quick note on back-sheathes: those were carry sheathes, meant for transportation not carrying a weapon into battle |
00:12.13 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
00:12.14 | Hachiman | Right |
00:12.25 | DrodoEmpire | (Two-handed swords like zweihanders were more weapons of war anyway as far as I know) |
00:12.30 | NeonPanda | as to how you'd carry the weapon into battle, arms-crossed with the cross of the blade in the crook of your arm |
00:12.37 | DrodoEmpire | (Not terribly practical things to carry around town) |
00:12.39 | Tybusen | Obviously something as heavy as zweihanders can't be carried on a belt sheathe |
00:12.39 | Hachiman | I know you're supposed to carry a two-handed sword into battle with your arm |
00:12.49 | DrodoEmpire | It isn't weight that's an issue Tybusen |
00:12.58 | DrodoEmpire | More size and unwieldiness |
00:12.58 | NeonPanda | ^ it's that the point would be dragging on the ground |
00:13.05 | DrodoEmpire | Swords aren't very heavy :p |
00:13.07 | NeonPanda | a zwei isn't actually that heavy, funnily enough |
00:13.20 | Tybusen | well i mean i'm no sword connossieur or anything |
00:13.20 | NeonPanda | god damn the synergy from the history nerds today XD |
00:13.30 | DrodoEmpire | I think the heaviest sword I've ever had was an old sabre, and it was more because all the weight was in its blade |
00:13.53 | DrodoEmpire | Also a very very old replica which probably didn't help either |
00:13.56 | NeonPanda | well there's a difference between actual weight and percieved weight when wielded |
00:13.58 | Tybusen | surely the heaviest sword is one made with grorious nippon steel, folded over one thousand and one times |
00:13.59 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:14.04 | Hachiman | but |
00:14.27 | DrodoEmpire | NeonPanda: yeah it was topheavy more than anything |

00:14.30 | DrodoEmpire | Hi Charles |
00:14.31 | Hachiman | Katana are like the opposite of heavy >.< |
00:14.32 | Charles_Murray | Hey |
00:14.38 | NeonPanda | like you could have a straight sword and falcata that weigh the same but the falcata will feel heavier because the weight is to the front |
00:14.46 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
00:14.57 | NeonPanda | katanas are about the same weight as a comparable length longsword of the same period :P |
00:15.06 | Hachiman | Fair |
00:15.26 | NeonPanda | funnily enough usually a katana was a little on the heavier side, more due to the thicker blade than anything |
00:15.44 | NeonPanda | but this is of course highly subjective because sword design was all over teh shop, the town and the next county over |
00:15.46 | DrodoEmpire | I imagine the heaviest battlefield weapons would actually be something like a pike |
00:16.13 | DrodoEmpire | A big, twenty-foot long pole of dense, heavy wood tipped with steel blades on either end |
00:16.20 | NeonPanda | probably the halberds and polearms, yeah |
00:16.23 | DrodoEmpire | It'd be unwieldy to boot, I have no doubt |
00:17.06 | DrodoEmpire | But of course a big heavy pole of wood tipped with steel can also stop the horse dumb enough to run right in to it :p |
00:18.29 | NeonPanda | huh, apparently most period accounts and reconstructions put your average polearm at the 4-5kg range, in other words comparable to larger war-sword |

00:19.50 | Hachiman | http://i.imgur.com/ArLe9iN.png?1 Also new Fantasyverse character I have in mind, even though only Drodo really pays attention to the Fantasyverse here |
00:20.13 | Hachiman | Main reason I'm showing is because I'm wondering if that armour would be *mostly* functional |
00:20.47 | DrodoEmpire | From what I can tell, sure yeah |
00:20.53 | DrodoEmpire | Armour's really diverse is the thing |
00:21.36 | Hachiman | It's a little protruded at the front near the chest in a way that isn't curved, which I'm wondering whether that would pose a risk or not |
00:21.41 | NeonPanda | what I'd immediately ask is what kind of weapons is he expecting to fight? |
00:21.45 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:22.10 | DrodoEmpire | Cuirasses in the early modern period protruded out often enough, though admittedly it was more a curve shape usually |
00:22.16 | DrodoEmpire | Or had a curve to it |
00:22.27 | DrodoEmpire | A slightly angular cuirass *could* work though |
00:22.52 | Hachiman | Probably medium - heavy weapons, although her main opposition would be things like zombies and feral monsters |
00:22.55 | DrodoEmpire | I'm not an armourer, so I dunno |
00:22.59 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
00:23.20 | DrodoEmpire | Sharp or blunt would be the better weapons distinction here I think >.< |
00:23.27 | DrodoEmpire | Well, edged, stabbing, or blunt |
00:23.29 | Hachiman | Right |
00:23.49 | Hachiman | She's probably expecting to fight edged weapons |
00:24.25 | DrodoEmpire | Edged weapons are usually foiled by chainmail or plate, stabbing weapons by plate, and nothing can really seriously protect you from a mace or warhammer besides ample padding and hope |
00:24.35 | Hachiman | hur |
00:24.41 | Hachiman | I'd add chainmail but Spore |
00:24.48 | DrodoEmpire | It can be implied |
00:25.01 | Hachiman | So she looks kinda naked so just pretend she's wearing chainmail or some leather / hide |
00:25.02 | DrodoEmpire | Often knights wore mail under lots of plate from the 1300s onward roughly speaking |
00:25.15 | DrodoEmpire | Gulvuri - Nah :> |
00:25.54 | DrodoEmpire | Well- 1300s were sorta transitional I guess |
00:26.02 | DrodoEmpire | In western/central europe anyway |
00:26.17 | DrodoEmpire | Eastern Europe sorta did its own thing I guess |
00:26.28 | Hachiman | Yeah |
00:26.59 | DrodoEmpire | http://i.imgur.com/QP0MEvz.jpg |
00:27.20 | Hachiman | Main thing to say here would be that she's not a knight or a member of any official, state military branch so her equipment is probably not going to be the absolute pinnacle of what it could be |
00:27.31 | DrodoEmpire | Fair enough |
00:27.49 | DrodoEmpire | She isn't wealthy, so she wouldn't be able to afford the best armour |
00:28.06 | DrodoEmpire | Especially considering a full suit of fine-quality plate could cost as much as a house or a car |
00:28.10 | Hachiman | Aye |
00:28.44 | Hachiman | She's got some advantage in that she was raised in a blacksmith's household |
00:28.58 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah she'd definitely be able to repair or maintain her armour |
00:29.06 | NeonPanda | average lord's possessions, in order from most valuable to least: armour, sword, horse, bed, tablewares :P |
00:29.15 | DrodoEmpire | Makes sense yeah |
00:30.30 | NeonPanda | the trend of having silver tableware starting with the idea that it was a functional investment that could still be melted down and resold in times of need |
00:30.39 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:30.40 | Hachiman | Huh |
00:30.44 | Hachiman | That's cool |
00:30.45 | DrodoEmpire | Actually now I wonder |
00:31.08 | DrodoEmpire | Would you know how much, say, a matchlock musket or a wheellock pistol would be in the 16th-17th century? |
00:31.18 | DrodoEmpire | I know wheellocks were pretty goddamn expensive |
00:31.32 | NeonPanda | depending on the make, the mechanisms, e.t.c. |
00:31.32 | Hachiman | Her name is Khara Greenforge and she is a half-orc raised by her maternal human family after her mother was involved in a loving, tender relationship with an orcish dog-of-war |
00:31.33 | DrodoEmpire | But I wonder about a matchlock musket |
00:31.38 | DrodoEmpire | Fair enough |
00:32.00 | NeonPanda | a matchlock wouldn't be that expensive, a wheellock (especially with arabic styling) was quite expensive |
00:32.02 | Hachiman | Because half-orcs always being rape babies is dumb |
00:32.05 | DrodoEmpire | Makes sense |
00:32.41 | DrodoEmpire | Buying a musket from Beretta in Italy would be a helluva a lot more expensive I figure than purchasing one used from a shop in, I dunno, Magdeburg during the Thirty years' War |
00:32.58 | DrodoEmpire | One would also probably be shit :p |
00:33.22 | NeonPanda | there was a story in Malta that someone managed to nab a rifle from an arabic officer and hid it under the flagstone of the town smithy that had been destroyed by cannon fire |
00:33.32 | NeonPanda | this being during hte crusades |
00:33.34 | DrodoEmpire | Huh |
00:33.50 | DrodoAway | BRB |
00:43.45 | NeonPanda | oh this reminds me, Monet: you know the setup job for pacific standard where you have to ambush the military convoy? |
00:44.10 | Monet | yes |
00:45.25 | Monet | I've run it many times. |
01:05.19 | DrodoEmpire | test |
01:11.45 | NeonPanda | was doing it with rando's, one of them decided firing an RPG right into the cluster of cars was a good idea |
01:12.56 | NeonPanda | also speaking of pacific standard, me and some friends are going to do the last run to bring me up to yacht money later on today if you feel like seeing if you don't lag too much |
01:14.56 | Monet | Not sure on that. I'd love to, but I've got a potentially busy week ahead. |
01:20.26 | Charles_Murray | What game? |
01:32.25 | Monet | GTA V |
01:32.51 | Monet | NeonPanda: The other day I had a rando fire a minigun into the convoy. |
01:33.15 | Monet | He learned quickly that heavy weapons for PacStan Convoy are a massive no-no. |
01:42.05 | DrodoEmpire | Huh, so "Shelter" has accumulated ~7 million views on youtube combining the audio and music video over the past two months |
01:42.19 | DrodoEmpire | The music video contributing 5.1 million views in the two weeks its been up <.< |
02:03.20 | NeonPanda | Monet: I ended up one-man'ing the job because nobody knew to go through the tunnel |
02:04.27 | Monet | Seriously? |
02:04.35 | NeonPanda | mhm |
02:04.43 | NeonPanda | I basically said fuck it, I'm taking the truck |
02:05.12 | NeonPanda | went through the tunnel, fortunately the helo's aggroed on the minigun truck so I didn't have to deal with them, then I basically just outran merryweather |
02:08.27 | Monet | got to go |

03:45.48 | Tek0516 | So I was trying to remember what was so special about this system with a massive swarm of crystal aliens. ...then I noticed the Gaia World. >.> |
03:48.13 | Tek0516 | A size 24 Gaia world. Sitting safely in my border. |
03:49.06 | The_Randomness | dang |
03:49.11 | The_Randomness | that's quite the score |
03:50.00 | Tek0516 | It was guarded by 5k of crystals, so that's why it took me a while to get here. |
03:53.59 | Tek0516 | I'm also loving my Destroyer build. Using a large weapon called the Kinetic Battery: huge range, high damage. Against lighter enemies a sufficient destroyer squadron can tear them apart before they even enter firing range. |
03:55.32 | Tek0516 | It also has bonus to shield damage, so by the time a fleet actually gets within firing range they also have to deal with my Plasma Throwers that basically ignore armour. |
03:56.30 | The_Randomness | :o |
04:00.08 | Tek0516 | Kinetic battery is a huge energy drain (50 power) that leaves it lightly defended, but mixed it with the rest of the fleet it's an even better opening weapon than torpedos. |

18:42.53 | dino82_ | the view of the Draconid? |
18:43.32 | Monet | maybe |
18:45.01 | Monet | they might not be as affected but they're still pretty critical |
18:51.31 | Monet | Thinking about it the Draconis may be one of the better groups to approach about rising out of isolation |
18:55.06 | dino82_ | oh? |
18:57.13 | Monet | They spent a long time in the shadow of the Vartekians |
18:59.00 | dino82_ | hmm like that |
18:59.34 | dino82_ | can I list it under the trivia? |

19:04.10 | dino82_ | hi Drodo |
19:13.28 | Monet | Well the Draconis basicallly waged a millennia long cold war against them |
19:13.44 | dino82_ | wow |

19:14.48 | Monet | Over Andromeda yeah |

19:24.54 | Monet | Could try working as a producer |
19:25.00 | Xho | where exactly |
19:25.09 | Hachiman | Online |
19:25.21 | Monet | ask Google |
19:26.54 | Monet | What about sound design? |
19:27.06 | Xho | same question |
19:27.27 | Monet | Same answer |
19:27.33 | Monet | Google |
19:28.30 | Xho | Nothing so far |
19:31.03 | Monet | no sound design studios? |
19:31.15 | Xho | In Southampton? Place is the worst city imaginable for music scenese |

19:31.26 | Xho | Man my spelling is getting bad |
19:32.25 | Monet | You're not too far from London. My suggestion is look there and secure yourself a railcard |
19:32.46 | Xho | Whoa fuck the transport costs |
19:32.53 | Xho | I need money to go to uni, not for transport costs |
19:33.12 | Xho | Current idea atm is to quit my job and sell my car and then try not to eat for 10 months |
19:33.13 | Monet | If you're under25 fares can be 1/3 cheaper |

22:01.48 | OluapPlayer | Hachi's already in |
22:02.26 | Technobliterator | I know that Hachi the character was introduced, but don't the Brood need introducing? |
22:03.00 | OluapPlayer | I don't know when the Brood comes in or what they do |

22:03.19 | *** join/#sporewiki Quark8 (49c685a7@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.198.133.167) |
22:03.20 | Quark8 | Back. |
22:03.26 | OluapPlayer | Only thing me and Hachi planned for them happens at the Xiyara part |
22:03.38 | Technobliterator | I remember Tyraz being involved? ?_? |
22:04.38 | OluapPlayer | He won't be like in the original |
22:05.06 | OluapPlayer | Only things that need immediate introduction are the Kicath, the Draconis and the Divinarium |
22:07.29 | Xho | Plant Dood - AAAAAAAAAAAA Alpha - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Nu - k den |
22:07.58 | Technobliterator | Oh, so just Hachi the character is in |
22:08.00 | Technobliterator | Fair enough |
22:09.04 | OluapPlayer | The Brood is still in, but they have no planned things to do yet |
22:09.18 | Monet | I remember the Imperium arrived by colonising Borealis |
22:09.25 | Xho | Chi - that will go away |
22:10.05 | Xho | I'll write the Kicath intro either on Friday, Sunday or the week after |
22:10.11 | OluapPlayer | They were in the Xi'Arazulha part of the original but I don't think they did anything other than stick around to UNO & friends doing their errands |
22:10.11 | Xho | I'm off work next week so I got free time |
22:10.38 | OluapPlayer | The Vague bit is where the whole crusade against the Chosen happens, which is the real important part |
22:10.56 | Technobliterator | Monet, have I shown you the war plan yet? |
22:11.19 | Monet | No you haven't |
22:11.36 | Technobliterator | ok, if you have time now I can show you |
22:11.41 | Technobliterator | and we can go over it |
22:14.44 | Xho | So what's the overall Borealis team again |
22:15.03 | OluapPlayer | UNO, Vekaron and Xeron |
22:15.22 | OluapPlayer | But the war is meant to be less about a team and more about empires and armies |
22:16.38 | Xho | Dunno why Nu and whatnot should be in it if it's not team based |
22:16.48 | Cyrannian | brb |
22:17.03 | OluapPlayer | There is a team, they just don't do 100% of the things |
22:17.18 | OluapPlayer | The Kicath doing nothing but sending Nu would be kinda worthless though |
22:17.20 | Xho | Nu - must chunder on vekaron's ship feels like i did it already |
22:17.28 | Xho | Well Nu and Tau |
22:17.37 | OluapPlayer | Point stands |
22:18.02 | Xho | In that case I won't participate then because I don't have time to write up full sections of stuff |
22:18.20 | OluapPlayer | dum |
22:20.18 | Monet | I'd like to see a more empire and army based war. |
22:20.39 | Xho | I don't have the patience to write that kind of stuff |
22:21.20 | Monet | Maybe you don't need to. |
22:21.22 | Hachiman | I want to see the economic and financial side of the war |
22:21.27 | Hachiman | And all the political goings-in |
22:21.30 | Hachiman | goings-on* |
22:21.39 | OluapPlayer | Here they are: |
22:21.40 | OluapPlayer | enjoy |
22:22.10 | Hachiman | but hao am i meant 2 make an accurate estimate of the borealis economy an war budget if u dunt show me shi |
22:22.14 | Hachiman | i want muh realism |
22:22.16 | Xho | If Nu and whatnot are not actually part of the team then there's no point of the Kicath being in it because that's what they were in the last war |
22:22.41 | OluapPlayer | I'm not aiming for realism, i'm aiming for an actual war |
22:22.42 | Xho | Besides there's too much shit I'm mentally invested in and everything feels like white noise nowadays anyway |
22:22.55 | OluapPlayer | Not "group of people go through wacky adventures" |
22:23.39 | Monet | Wars are often about much more than armies and battles though. |

22:23.58 | Xho | Well when I say mentally invested it's more like a dead root I can't pull out so it just stays there and I keep planting more dead roots |
22:24.31 | Technobliterator | The team and the rp'd sections are some of the most fun bits to write, but yes, a lot of it as about the empires and armies |
22:25.09 | OluapPlayer | I've done so many team-based fictions already, I want to try something different |
22:25.56 | Technobliterator | I think based on the plan we have, we can have a pretty healthy mix of both |
22:26.54 | Xho | I could do that with the Fantasyverse but my Fictionverse stuff bar the Xhodocto just disgusts me outright |
22:27.13 | Technobliterator | Are the Agents joining the team? |
22:27.17 | Xho | No |
22:27.17 | Technobliterator | They were really great in the original war |
22:27.20 | Technobliterator | aw |
22:28.36 | Xho | I'd remove 99% of my fiction if I could |
22:28.46 | Xho | I'd just keep the Xhodocto and the Essentials I've made |
22:28.58 | Monet | woah |
22:29.09 | Technobliterator | I seem to recall Kithworto was in the original war |
22:29.20 | OluapPlayer | Wormy_: http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/186/595/716.jpg |
22:29.32 | Xho | Everything else is a scrapped and poorly planned mess |
22:29.47 | Technobliterator | I want the agents in the war, though |
22:29.49 | Technobliterator | q_q |
22:29.58 | Xho | Well make your own Agent and use it |
22:30.10 | Technobliterator | or at least Nu |
22:30.52 | Technobliterator | I can't really imagine redoing some parts of the war without the entire crew |
22:31.10 | OluapPlayer | It's gonna be the case |
22:31.26 | OluapPlayer | Hell we're already doing that |
22:31.31 | Monet | This might have some positives |
22:31.44 | OluapPlayer | rps won't be a complete nightmare to organize for one |
22:32.05 | Xho | Worst thing is you could remove all of my fiction apart from the Xhodocto and nothing would change in fiction |
22:32.19 | Monet | In terms of story it might help avoid the idea that without this one team of, well practically superheroes, the war is lost. |
22:32.23 | Technobliterator | Which is why you just cut down on the number of rps we need to do |
22:32.28 | Technobliterator | rather than just cut people out entirely |
22:32.39 | Xho | Actually I might do that |
22:32.46 | OluapPlayer | If he doesn't want to participate I'm not going to insist |
22:33.08 | Technobliterator | Alas |
22:33.31 | Technobliterator | Are we ditching the part where the BCN raid the Kicath, then? |
22:33.48 | OluapPlayer | Yes |
22:34.02 | Technobliterator | it won't feel the same ;A; |
22:34.04 | Technobliterator | but alright |
22:38.02 | Xho | I might take a wiki break actually |
22:39.22 | *** join/#sporewiki CyrannianAway (uid97882@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-lvpgifagbbhyoivl) |
22:40.19 | Xho | Then again all things considered if I took a break I'd probably never come off it |
22:40.39 | Technobliterator | Well, that depends on how long the break is |
22:40.43 | Technobliterator | or the nature of the break |
22:41.03 | Xho | Well if I want work stress to stop then we're talking a 10 month break |
22:41.29 | Xho | Besides granted I go to uni that will be the end of me here entirely |
22:42.58 | Technobliterator | I mean, it's up to you |
22:43.16 | Xho | I don't know |
22:43.38 | Xho | Everything is so much of a blur right now that I wouldn't have a second thought to delete all of my fiction |
22:45.46 | DrodoEmpire | test |
22:46.16 | DrodoEmpire | Xho: very belated ayy lmao |
22:46.34 | Xho | I should delete all of my fiction though, it's about a millimetre deep at the most |
22:46.42 | DrodoEmpire | Uh |
22:46.46 | DrodoEmpire | How about no |
22:46.50 | DrodoEmpire | <.< |
22:47.03 | Xho | Well everything but the Xhodocto and Essentials anyway |
22:48.11 | Xho | Actually everything but the Xhodocto |
22:48.11 | Technobliterator | So, first of all, you should keep in mind that you're clearly in a garbage mood right now and not in a good position to make decisions like that |
22:48.39 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah... |
22:48.41 | Technobliterator | Second of all, you should keep in mind the repercussions that'll have |
22:48.54 | Xho | like nothing |
22:49.09 | Xho | All the collab stuff in my fiction you could remove in seconds and it would still make sense |
22:49.23 | DrodoEmpire | Xho please don't be like this |
22:49.28 | Technobliterator | Deleting the non-Xhodocto fiction renders the first chapter of the Borealis War redundant, for one |
22:49.47 | Xho | Alright everything but the Xhodocto and Essentials then |
22:49.49 | DrodoEmpire | Just maybe sit down or read something and relax for a minute |
22:50.15 | Xho | The Kicath have absolutely no substance on the wiki so I could remove them and it wouldn't change anything |
22:50.28 | DrodoEmpire | Then either give them substance or leave them be <.< |
22:50.30 | Technobliterator | At the end of the day, it's up to you. I can delete whatever you want me to |
22:50.34 | Monet | I think the Kicath have lots of potential |
22:51.03 | Xho | The Dominion have even less |
22:51.06 | Technobliterator | I do not intend intend to delete any page while you're in this mood, though, because I've no idea whether or not you'll just ask me to undelete it another day |
22:51.07 | DrodoEmpire | What have you to gain from removing it? |
22:51.19 | Xho | Less shit with my name on it for one |
22:51.48 | Xho | Wish I just could restart the Fiction Universe |
22:51.56 | DrodoEmpire | I dunno, I won't argue with you |
22:52.09 | DrodoEmpire | I'd say just relax for a bit and see how you feel later |
22:53.08 | Monet | If things are all a blur at the moment it's probably best to relax first before thinking further. |
22:53.35 | Monet | It may be the Kicath need more direction. |
22:53.39 | Xho | The only way I'm going to relax is if I drop everything currently going on in life |
22:56.10 | Xho | I'm essentially 22 years old and going into a full meltdown because I can't do anything with my life other than monotonous work for 10 months straight |
22:56.20 | Xho | If that isn't insanity inducing then I don't know what is |
22:57.32 | Technobliterator | Well, you're also 22 years old and in a position to do something about it |
22:58.06 | Technobliterator | Either go for a degree to hunt for a better job, see a psychiatrist to help deal with your mental health, or find something else that works for you |
22:58.55 | Monet | We're all willing to help if we can. |
22:59.53 | Xho | I don't think you can really |
22:59.55 | Technobliterator | Being real, a feeling of being unable to do anything with your life, or a feeling of being unskilled, is quite possibly the most common cause of poor mental health |
23:00.19 | Technobliterator | You are in a position to do something about it |
23:01.30 | Monet | Many of us have been in that pit where it feels like nothing could possibly improve. |
23:01.51 | Technobliterator | Or like they're not going anywhere with their life |
23:02.23 | Technobliterator | Many people are much older than 22 years old, and have much fewer skills |
