Bounced around a lot last night between Legion Remix in WoW, the Monster Hunter Wilds collab event in FFXIV, and some more Diablo 4 seasonal objective hunting.

Legion Remix not quite landing, paying the catch-up tax in FFXIV, GW2 Halloween events, and knocking out another seasonal objective in D4.

see THAT I understood because Tortas are super common around here in small family mexican restaurants :)

Most of the reason why I took Spanish orignally is because where I live it seemed like the most useful language because I grew up knowing native language speakers.

Belghast @belghast.com · 3d

I really should attempt Spanish again honestly, I picked up just enough through second year high school spanish to be able to understand the jist of what native language speakers are talking about, but its the idoms that I end up missing out on

Belghast @belghast.com · 3d

I do not speak spanish for shit... I understand it a bit better, and remember watching El Chavo as a way of sort of testing my ability in High School to understand the dialog since it was rather simplistic.

Belghast @belghast.com · 3d

El Chavo is so fucking weird lol

I have never seen a cat with such clearly defined eyeliner like she has either heh

She is also maybe the smartest cat I have ever been around. She figured out how to evade cat proofing that decades of other cats never did heh.

I had been an ultimate subscriber since day one, but this is just too big of a jump for the little bit that I got out of it.

Belghast @belghast.com · 7d

This is going to hurt them, because so far I have not heard anyone say "yeah I am fine with this and letting it ride".

EVERYONE is cancelling.

Another topic where I am all over the place in games right now, as I struggle with depression and adhd tendencies... making nothing quite feel right.

aggronaut.com/2025/09/30/y...

Admitting I am fighting a depression which combined with undiagnosed adhd means nothing quite feels right... and I bounce around a lot.

Belghast @belghast.com · 9d

Yeah there was a lot that they could have learned by the final state of Diablo III which is still one of my more enjoyable seasonal expeirences. Sure it only took a weekend or so for me to run out of things to do, but it was a fun weekend.
