  • DCSS got quite a few beefy updates recently, with reworks for Makhleb, Dithmenos, Yredelemnul and Beogh, many new spells (and a new spell school in trunk), reflavouring of Poison magic into Alchemy that allowed adding some more late game spells (e.g. Yara’s is hexes/alchemy now), return of mountain dwarves and a new species that can dual wield weapons, transmutation magic school being changed into talismans…

    I love the new changes and, for the first time in my DCSS obsession, I started playing trunk :D






  • Yeah, jobhunting is hell and you aren’t alone at this. Just keep checking and applying, eventually you’ll be employed! Good luck with this!

    It’s cool that in some places mental support is so accessible! We were checking for a psychiatrist for my GF recently and holy cow they’re expensive! We’re going for them anyway ofc.


  • I don’t think you’re fucked at all. Your life situation like that for a reason, and that reason can be treated and fixed. I mean, I don’t know your situation so I can’t really say for sure but I believe you’ll be able to deal with it.

    Supportive people are of a huge help, whether online or IRL. It may be hard to befriend people and keep the friendship but it’ll possibly be the hardest step to make, as the next ones will be done with others.

    I also find it helpful to keep some hopeful and affirming media around, for times when my mental issues cause me to fail. E.g., rewatching some Bocchi the rock episodes help me cope with anxiety when it leads me to fail something important.

    Therapy can also be an option but it costs money so I can’t say if it’s an option for you.















  • Ornstein and Smough from Dark Souls. The series have plenty of difficult boss fights but this one is earlier than most and the biggest difficulty spike in the entire game IMHO.

    Outside of the Souls games, there’s Lil’ Hunter from Nuclear Throne. I tried to beat this little trashcan SO many times and succeeded only once. It’s insane.

    Also shout-out to Hush from the Binding of Isaac for almost giving me a heart attack when I was fighting it as the tainted lost. Never again.
