Dahniska (Diska)

Over 5 years ago I hit one of my many low points. I realized a huge change was needed in my approach to everything in my life - I wasn't given a good starting place from childhood and nothing seemed to be getting better as I waited for... Something. I saved this at that time.

@TheMCZslayer I saw the way this was going from Cold War launch and that's why I dipped. COD ironically is, in many ways, a victim of its own success, almost unrecognizable now compared to what it was back when I was playing it.

There used to be a skill gap in zombies for running strategies, learning mechanics, quick decision making & adapting to different situations and now there's none of that anymore and I'm starting to hate high rounds I genuinely think modern zombies has killed skillful high rounds

Zombies doesn't feel like a survival game anymore to me for modern zombies, it feels like a sandbox game. You don't need to strategize anymore to play zombies to high rounds, you just camp if you want to play "optimally" or run around wherever you want casually.

I knkw that I'm definitely not the first person to praise it, but Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is probably the game that I've had the most fun with since Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth. Literally have a hard time putting this game down, it's just amazing.

@Grummz Initial impressions say we are moving in the right direction, so that's definitely good.

Tomb Raider fans, yay or nay?

@tombraider @Lambster115 Looks interesting!

Some legends are destined to be retold. Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is a reimagining of Lara Croft’s iconic 1996 debut. Coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2026! Wishlist now: playtr.games/wishlistnow

@SmashJT I platinumed Forbidden West and honestly really enjoyed it, but if Aloy had looked the way she does on the right, the game would have been a lot more fun and I would have been more invested in her as a character.

I asked ChatGPT to make her beautiful 🤣 Maybe this is all studios need to start doing if they want sales and avoid layoffs!?

@everymovieplug I watched this film like 3 times several years ago and thought it was really, really good.

The 3 hours in the cave turn 3 million years outside it 😳

Name an album where you can listen to every song from the beginning to the end and not have the urge to skip a song?

@MrRoflWaffles Hang in there man. Hope your treatment helps and this goes away or gets easier... very tough situation.

TLDR: i am really seriously struggling right now and if i seem off in the next few days and weeks (and perhaps months and years) then this is why. details below. on the night of november 2nd i noticed something was wrong with my ears; my tinnitus (which i've had since i was 16) was MUCH louder than ever before, had spread to both ears, and was making it impossible to sleep. i eventually passed out from exhaustion, and hoped it would just go away the next day it got to my birthday earlier this week, and the sound had actually gotten worse - i could hear it all the time, even with loud white noise playing, even with music, even over the fridge sound, even over conversations with friends, all i can hear and focus on is how abnormally loud it has gotten. literal worst birthday present possible fast forward a few more days and my doctor thinks that what may have caused this is that i might have been hit with a side effect from other medication i was taking at the end of october. the problem is that this isn't reversible and you literally just have to live with it. i dug through a ton of different studies from the last few years and found that there's one singular study showing a possible link between steroid usage and mild improvement to symptoms of my nature IF taken immediately after symptoms started, so i pressed my doctor to give me a prescription for them at first my doctor denied the request but i went back the next day, talked him through the paper, and we spoke to an emergency ENT doctor. we landed on the following: i am going to take a pretty high dose of steroids over the next week, and we're going to basically cross our fingers that it helps. we're also going to PRAY that it doesn't make things WORSE, which is unfortunately a possibility (which terrifies me). this will have side effects - my doc has warned me that it will very likely absolutely crater my mood, i may become irritable very easily, i may feel depressed to the point of being suicidal, or i might dodge many of those side effects because the duration is quite short. we're going to have to play it by ear (..... ffs lol) on top of this, i have been totally unable to sleep, and the exhaustion is really catching up to me, and making me even more depressed, so my doctor has also given me a short course of vallium to take - so on top of my concerns about the steroids, i now have to make sure i don't get addicted to these lmao - but i am praying that they can ease my anxiety about it all and give me some relief then on top of all that, the doctor has also recommended i get my earwax cleaned out to take that extra factor out of the equation (though we already know the wax is not causing the tinnitus), but to do that, you need to use olive oil drops for 5-7 days to help soften the wax first. the problem is that every time i've done this in my life, it has clogged my ears and meant that they are blocked to all external sounds, and the exact same thing has happened to me here. my wax has sealed up my ears on and off over the past 72hrs, and so i can ONLY hear the tinnitus when that happens, with no other external sound able to even partly mask it. i literally had to ask the doctor in the pharmacy to repeat themself 6 times in a row because i couldn't hear them over the sound of the tinnitus through my blocked ears, i'm more or less just fully deaf when that happens i was with friends on my birthday which made it a bit easier to cope and distract myself, but now i'm home and on my own it is really cripplingly depressing. i'm really concerned that this is going to be something which affects me this way for life, which is not a healthy way to look at it at all, but it's hard to imagine anything else right now when it's so loud that it stops me sleeping completely and even wakes me up because it's so loud - even with white noise etc playing to mask it, it makes no difference, and that's really easy to catastrophize and worry about the long term being just untenable. i look back on videos of myself from as recently as 1 week ago and i feel like i am looking at a different person - i never realised how quickly everything could feel like it could change for the worse, and i am so jealous of my old self and what my hearing was like when i just had normal tinnitus, not this terrible new curse which feels like it will be impossible to adapt to. i'm going to try over the next few days to do some normal stuff like make some videos, and see if there's any places where i can distract myself enough to not think about it - as part of that, it would be really helpful if we could avoid bringing it up in my stream chats or stuff like that because that's just gonna make me think about it all over again, and the trick right now is that i need to basically train my brain to tune it out. it's going to be a mammoth task - it was way easier when i had my old tinnitus but this is so much louder it's insane - and so not talking about it on stream etc 24/7 is gonna be important for helping me "forget" it's happening basically. black ops 7 might be my absolute saving grace in this regard -- i can only hope so that's where i'm at. i am finding even basic stuff like eating really difficult because it sort of feels pointless to take care of myself when it feels like i am going to be destroyed by this regardless without a single thing i can do to stop it, but i guess that's what the vallium is for. maybe it will help get me out of this hole even just in the immediate short term. we will see i suppose. gonna put on a brave face from here, but i am really struggling and i am really sorry if roid-ragelo makes an appearance or i don't seem like myself anymore. i have been trying my best to just power through it, but this is really hard to go through alone.

@charlieINTEL I still remember this. Good times... we didn't know how good we had it. That was the end of the golden age of COD in many ways.

10 years ago today: Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 was first released.

I know it’s not November 6th yet, but it’s actually insane that Black Ops 3 is almost 10 years old… Time is not real.

@Hybsx The BO2 version played in a more interesting and unique way and the guns are way better. BO3 looks better. I dislike the mud and the gums and AATs reduce the man's challenge and what made it so special. Overall BO2 probably wins, but BO3 has its advantages.

Black Ops 2 Origins or Black Ops 3 Origins? 🤔

All right, friends. Looking for some honest feedback. I've sat out the past few COD games because I felt like COD peaked in BO3 and everything has failed to meet my expectations since then. What are your thoughts on BO7? I've been hearing good things...

Today is the only day in history where the events of MOON, from Black Ops Zombies took place LITERALLY TODAY: October 13th 2025. 🤯

@CalvinHarris @thatwildc

@EllysianAnthem Nah, XC2 has you spend a lot more time focused on the characters and their interpersonal relationships than 3 does, in my opinion. Its themes are a lot more dark and the cast are so compelling that everything hits harder. XC3 cast is mid compared to XC2 cast.

Can someone explain why Putin and Trump met all the way in Alaska when Washington DC is literally right on the way?

@genericndboring I'm on fire 🔥
