photowordism.home.blog/2025/01/02/the… -- I haven't updated this in awhile, but when I read through it again, it turned out because I'm pretty happy with it. What is it? A D&D 5E setting book. It has adventure hooks/vignettes, legendary villains for each CR. A bunch of magic items. Setting specific-takes on different races. Archetypes for each class + Artificer. A sizable bestiary. So, I need a new pinned tweet -- so here it is. Enjoy the Aryssa World Book. We'll also try some hashtags: #TTRPG #DungeonsAndDragons #DnD #5E

I find it wildly entertaining that people are referring to vapes as “sucking robodicks” lately, perhaps the best slur of all time.

@lucentile @ElevationXIV If you consider playing the game to be "suffering", then you're playing the wrong game. I don't think you're saying anything, certainly nothing useful or meaningful. You're just whining. Please cease doing so in my direction.

There's too much copium around the idea that experiencing the MSQ is what teaches new players how to play the game. If I could jump potion when I first started playing XIV (back in 3.2), I would have. And it would've had zero impact on my ability to learn the game

@AtavismDr @TheLoneHandmaid The message itself is spot on -- this guy who demands pretty girls dress modestly instead of going after modest girls IS a dick. But the disappearing hat is also mildly amusing.

That's... kind of what I'm saying? You don't need all of ARR to learn "stay out of the bad" "stack in the stack" "these circles fall in the order they are made" "the triangles shouldn't overlap." Maybe the only "complex" is "these doritos mean hug a friend." The people who can't learn that after two pulls in Savage/Extreme/Normal probably aren't going to learn it after suffering hundreds of hours of sporadic dungeon/trial content where failure isn't punished at all.

@lucentile @ElevationXIV Plenty of us managed to learn just fine when the whole game was just ARR. If you're failing to learn anything from the game as you play through it, maybe you should actually pay attention to what you're doing.

What's worse is that the woman passed the first filter (was noticed + attractive), and then gets into a second filter. All this is doing is teaching women "well, I should dress immodestly at first to attract attention so the ACTUAL immodest girls don't get noticed before me, and then comply," which is a pretty perverse incentive structure.

@Catholic_Haze No. Its worse. In this scenario he isnt talking about being in a relationship already. He is talking about before starting one. So, a total stranger. Notice: it is a test to determine if she is worth pursuing. So, you havent pursued her yet.

The premise for this whole argument is that a Catholic man supposedly interested in pleasing God is presently dating an immodest woman. Why would a Catholic man be with an immodest woman in the first place? A Catholic man who is sincerely interested in pleasing God with all of his mind and soul and avoiding the company of immodest women would be pursuing religious life, not pursuing a woman already dressed immodestly. This talk of testing to see whether an immodest woman will be obedient to your authority is false religion.
Joshua Charles🇻🇦@JoshuaTCharles

One of the easiest ways for a man to see if a woman is worth pursuing: ask her to dress modestly in public (since most don’t these days). If she says no, she rejects the authority of Christ, and would thus reject your authority as a husband. Move on.

@JendersII Joshua Charles is not these women's husband. He's a random guy who saw a girl and wanted to enforce how she dresses.

The backlash from this tweet shows just how deeply covert feminism is engrained in Catholic circles. There is nothing more harmful to the Church today than feminism. It needs to be authoritatively rejected at it's essence: that wives can disobey their husbands and teach men.

And again, this isn't "fraternal correction." People are seeing "man, I'd love to date this girl. She's hot! But she needs to dress modestly." This isn't holding a seminar on modesty and virtue. This is wanting to change a woman the guy wants. Once again, it's coming from an inherently selfish place.

My issue is that I see this type of thing at Mass and by Catholic girls. You meet them on the Catholic side of Hinge or Catholic Match and they don't really practice it. I guess, it's like a girl seeing a somewhat scruffy guy and thinking she can change him for the better. It's that type of scenario. You need to be kind, though, and a lot of guys are not kind.

I believe fraternal correction should be embraced by all. Modesty is beneficial for the soul; therefore, when those closest to us fail to practice modesty, it becomes a loving concern, as it demonstrates a lack of consideration for themselves and others.
Lisa@lisavsworld

Let's be real here for a second. I don't believe any of this modesty discourse from usually CONVERT (often keyword here) Christian men has anything to do with actually encouraging modesty, but everything to do with: 1) controlling others rather than themselves to attempt to curtail a rampant porn addiction 2) the petty obsession with power in a world where they feel they have none (especially over themselves) Real men don't have to enforce their authority. They don't need to test it. They just have it. A follower doesn't make a leader. The leader just is and people choose to follow naturally. If they don't... well, it's probably because you suck. This whole warped view of male headship in the online male Christian right-wing is just another blatant idol. It's often the very crux of their faith. A power fantasy supposedly condoned by God himself.

No it isn't. If you've followed the conversation throughout the day, it's clear that the situation is the guy sees a pretty girl who he wants to "date," but we all know by "date" he means "bang" since the key qualifier for the guy is she's pretty. Her modesty only comes up AFTER qualifying as a partner.

@lucentile This is what the larger part of society is telling women, the man is reacting to that. It would be great if everyone took the time to dress more modestly, more consistently.

This is an insane leap. A man asks a woman to dress modestly means… he picked an immodest woman to “have some fun with” before making her a marriageable woman? No, he just wants a pretty girl to be more modest like the Church has always taught. 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️
Melody Lyons@melodymlyons

@rothanwalker @TheGringoSalado Since we’re going hypothetical… Do you think that man brazen enough to police a non-wife’s clothing would choose an immodest girl in the first place? No. Not unless he thought he could have some fun with her before bringing her into line. Not an uncommon tradboy scenario btw

@CeyseraLuL Again: I'm willing to bet you are doing more than log in, join the raid, and log out. This is what I'm trying to get through, that a lot of people who play FF14 underestimate exactly what they're doing and the investment required.

I'm not being obtuse; you continue to be deliberately rude and obtuse though. People can talk to their friends *outside* of FF14. I think we might be having two different conversations: I'm using the term the way people mean ("I want to run interesting dungeons that we haven't been doing for a years to a decade with my friends,") while you're using it to mean "we're both playing the game and hanging out, and sometimes we run stuff together."

You’re being obtuse again. Had a friend or two when I started playing. Now have 20 people who hop in every day to play while going through MSQ. You know some story dungeons don’t have much population and I have to wait to que? I used party finder. I then would do the alliance raids and wait and Que and would have to use party finder. Those people then came and hung out with me every day. This was done because of MSQ AND THE THINGS IT SHOWS YOU and OPENS UP

@theakiraway Playing with and playing next to is a reference to different kinds of play. Playing with means that your game/play is interactive (think tag), while playing next to is like two children playing with their own toys in a sandbox. People want to play "with" in the first sense.

@lucentile Playing next to your friends…virtually. In a discord voice call. While they’re all around the world. In a multiplayer game. In FFXIV. God bless you in your struggles.

@CeyseraLuL I think you're under estimating what you do, because if you "only raid" you're not getting 300 mil.

@ShibaLee_ We get that even from people with thousands of hours in the game. We have people who don't know doritos/stop/Shiva circles/etc. who have played since release. I doubt skip potions will make this lack of game knowledge/caring more noticeable.
