My favorite line from this article:

"Liteplo was also inspired by his time living in Japan. 'The story that I could tell anyone to blow their mind is that you can rent a boyfriend or a girlfriend' in Japan, Liteplo says."

This hints at the natural place where this will wind up: AI-run brothels.

This barely even concludes this PART of Living Memory, but I'm going to end this particular post on that note and continue in the next.

Thank you so much for reading - I'd love to hear your thoughts and how this zone made y'all feel.

Part of this was my thinking on Soren, as a character - bc it's so hard to reallllly get into the character's POV for me. I struggle to remember sometimes who of the cast we've lost along the way. But as I thought on this, specifically, it's the reminder that there's no way in hell Soren would forget even a single one of them even when it's surprising even to her. Maybe that comes across as obvious - but again it's separating the player mindset (what happened in this game 2 years ago?) vs. lived experience (of course Soren would think of people like Wilred or Moenbryda randomly and almost without cause). I don't ever plan to write one of those behemoth "MSQ retetllings" for Soren, but it is fun to look back at the story and think about places I didn't have much emotion put into my mind's eye narrative, and realizing that it would have had so much more depth in "reality" I can't emphasize enough how excellent of a build-off from the Endwalker narrative this is!! Which was already the build-up of sooo much storytelling!!

Living Memory is a tantalizing concept. To G'raha's point, I think it's a fantastical little daydream to have access to those who are gone... except that it's now how this plays out. The living do NOT interact with the dead. They simply stop remembering them and give the departed a little paradise. Because otherwise you create an Eternal Grief System where the living are interacting with the dead, but... you're kind of being forced to re-accept their loss with every interaction. They can't come with you to other places, can't actually enjoy a real meal together. The little details like "how do they eat" are actually really, REALLY good bc it creates such a chasm when you try and work through a scenario like I'm doing right now. I wish they had lived. There's nothing else to say, even as I feel like I've got a lot of other things to say. It's just... yeah. Comes back to Endwalker as usual. To live with, and carry on through, the grief and joys of living is what makes it being alive. One big commentary on "what makes us people."

No you need to REMEMBER the lessons of the civil rights movement. When you choose to ignore something after its out of mainstream - you choose to forget.
There are many who have been living the Civil Rights movement ways (meaning LOVE & SUPPORT your neighbor).

Alright. Here's where I start to really get deep and a bit personal about it. I wrote this the day after these scenes.

TW for IRL death and grieving for the next few posts in here.

#7.0spoilers ⬇️
w IRL death - it struck me how when I think about the people I know who have passed, in one way or another, I remember them almost more. And I don't mean the obvious ones like family that has passed on - I mean the ones that arguably should be no more fresh in my memory than any other passing acquaintance. A coworker I barely interacted with. A friend of a friend I met for quite literally one (albeit memorable) day. A mutual friend I spent one day of a convention with. It makes the "wipe the memories for the living" part even more bitter in my mouth the more I think about it. Horrific isn't even the right word anymore it's... depressing. It's sad, and empty. That line "above all else I wish they had lived" might go down as one of my favorite lines from ffxiv as a whole. Because yeah. That's the crux of it, isn't it? Living Memory is an odd paradox, because it should by all rights be totally stagnant. And yet, as we see through Cahciua, there are still... new memories, and new experiences? Though perhaps that's what makes her so weird and kinda distant, now that I think about it. She's not a real, living person experiencing the grief of telling her son she's long departed. She only has the warm memories of being with him while alive to dictate the way she acts.

huh - one of my uncles made a game like this with cardboard when i was a child (so 70s-early 80s) and the corners were the only place you could switch lanes

This was in the UK though so it was speedway - but this version.... I assumed there is a base/universal version so i'm intrigued. Love it.
bikers slide through a corner, with a high rate of injury and death, nothing says fun than the smell of burning rubber, petrol, and bikes with NO BRAKES ON THEM ?! WHY FOR GOD SAKE WHY?! Witnessed 2 deaths watching this sport as a kid, then my dad nudging me and asking if i'd ,you know, ever fancied giving it a try.

I GENUINELY need all of the help I can get. I'm not kidding. My three cats and I need to get FAR, FAR AWAY from my abusive external family and the two abusers I used to live with. I can't handle living the way I am anymore. I'm disabled and my cats are my lifelines. They give me a reason to live.
pvposeur.bsky.social P.V. Poseur @pvposeur.bsky.social · 2d
I really need the help, guys. I'm at my wits end and at the point of just giving up. And I don't want to because I'm all my cats have (and vice versa). I'm scared to death for me and my cats.

CASH APP: cash.app/$PVPOSEUR

PAYPAL: www.paypal.com/paypalme/dda...
Okay, guys. I NEED HELP NOW. My cousin and I had a nice talk a few hours ago and, while it was 100% civilized and mature, he wants me to move out by March 16th. The thing is, I'm still struggling with getting a job that won't fucking kill me physically/mentally and I haven't heard back from the Social Security Office about my disability yet. So, long story short, I have one of three options going for me right now: - being homeless with my three cats, - moving back in with the two abusive assholes that I WAS living with (which I HIGHLY doubt they'd let me anyways because I'm a POS human according to them), or - living with my uncle (the dad of the cousin I'm staying with right now) who is also very fucking abusive and loves Trump. And to make matters worse? I'd have to get rid of my cats if I chose to live with my POS uncle in Mississippi while he gets to keep his two dogs who kills cats outside for sport and has an abusive alcoholic wife that LITERALLY nobody likes. It doesn't help that I have a shit fuck ton of trauma from him living with me, my mom, and my brother from 2011 to 2018. My best friend doesn't have the room for me or my three cats, sadly, because she'd let me move in otherwise. Not only that, but the house is technically her buddy's house since it's under her buddy's name. They also have six cats and two dogs (one of the dogs is aggressive due to trauma and abuse from previous owners). I'm at my wits end here, guys. That being said, I need to come up with the money between now and March 16th for a place to move into. Anything and everything will help out, guys. I've been crying my eyes out for the past almost hour because of this. I'm just so tired of nothing going right with me no matter how hard I try.

Do you remember what I said to you before all this? That life is a series of journeys. That you must be true to yourself, for indeed, there's no telling what awaits. I don't know about you, but I certainly didn't expect to behold such sights. The future is as fluid as the water beneath us, truly. Tell me, my friend. Have you ever wished to be reunited with someone who has passed away? I have. I do. But I think... Above all else, I wish that they had lived. If only for one more day. One more day... A joyous one, if I could choose. I did all that I could to make it happen. I tried everything. Spared nothing. In that manner, I was able to keep some few souls out of harm's way. But so, so many were... beyond my power to save. What would I have done then, had I this...? And you─can you imagine yourself spending eternity here, knowing no loss? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?? I's impossible not to think of him, and the Exarch, and that he did get a second chance when so, so many didn't. I know there's so many people he could be referring to, but the story about Lyna's parents comes to mind as who he might be thinking of. And with that COUPLE LOOKING DOWN AND WAVING. No telling what awaits, and that you have to seize the day while you have it And that question at the end. Can you imagine? I mean, this is what people would consider heaven. Most people I would argue do imagine something like this - an eternity, knowing no loss, no suffering. A hope that you hold onto to get you from one day to the next, but. This gets REALLY DEEP REALLY FAST WITH LIVING WHILE YOURE ALIVE AND LIVING FOR A PROMISED HEAVEN.
