Decided to make a dedicated FFXIV Bluesky account so my followers on my main aren't jumpscared by sudden MMORPG chicanery.
Hi, I'm Grim! I've been around. I'll continue to be a cryptid due to a shit ton of reasons (work is stress, I'm shy, I'm riddled with disabilities, etc), but I'm Around.

Fana’s most obvious association is Odysseus because I think it was very funny to steal the “Nobody” joke
However the ones I don’t talk about shape her a lot more, so…Amergin, Dian Cecht, and Cu Chulainn are all on this list of “actually influence Fana”

#wolqotd is there a mythical/historical figure you associate with your WoL/OC? maybe related to their azem/ancient, maybe not?
xeph's is sisyphus. a seemingly interminable, futile task. a life that feels trapped in this single action. and despite it, finding ways to make life worth living.

Once you've been in this space (the xiv fandom) enough you start to notice everything happens in a cyclical order over and over and every other semester feels like déjà vu. You ask yourself "hasn't this happened last year?" and the answer will be yes. And the year before as well.

People who aren't even part SWANA/MENA making sexy fantasy dancer or sexy 'Ancient Egyptian' outfits and calling it traditional is killing me. Please label it non-traditional and/or fantasy. Thinking it's traditional just shows how much you assume the orientalist trope is legit when it's not.

If you care more about a fictional character(s) than an in real life person, then there’s something really wrong with you and I hope you seek out help.
You must be very privileged to not give a damn about what’s going on in our world today.
Do better.

This is really the critical point: Firefox is packing its browser with AI slop functions by default; relying on a user actively choosing to turn it off.
That isn't neutral - that is a political and ideological statement that they want more reliance on these tools

I think Fana's ultimate best friend is, if I'm allowed to be corny, xir husband, Arkas. I think a lot of what you have to understand about Fana is that you gotta hit her with the sincerity beam to first get her to understand that there's a connection- and then you go the extra mile like Arkas did.

Please tell me about your wol/ocs best friend(s). Please. Please I am begging. I want to hear about their best friend(s). I want to hear about the characters and npcs who mean so much to your wol/oc.
I AM BEGGING.

Chat, I cannot overstate the value of, "What I am hearing you say is X. Is that what you meant?"
It's such a relationship saver, and an amazing communication tool all around.
Never underestimate the power of letting someone clarify their statement.

Real deep talk. @diwolfe.bsky.social said something to me about a person he met who was ravaged by unfortunate shit.
"I am tired of helping the wrong people"
This hit home harder than I had ever felt because me and my husband feel this everyday. We keep doing this.
And we hate it. Stop it.
