I streamed a tiny art game for @Veladynee over the weekend that contains, among other things, cute carpet dragons that you can pet and one giant snake friend.

We were a bit surprised carpet dragon OCs aren't a thing yet: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aBGBQsaCabs

PS: weighted companion cube Prompto is literally the best thing, and I did not know how badly I needed it in my life.

Finally sitting down to replay the game. I'd had a large stack of mods I downloaded over the years, and I forgot I left them enabled during the opening cutscenes.

Apparently Lunafreya is being supported by Power Rangers Red and Blue. Prompto is now a highly animate weighted companion cube. And all of the cars are full of sapient cactuars.

Everyone continued to act as if the situation was deadly serious.

... I couldn't stop laughing for a good 5 minutes.

A friend wanted help farming Safi'jiiva from World while we wait for Rise to release more quests. This was one of my ending snapshots.

... relatedly, being able to play the game on high detail is pretty great now. 👀 💦

Been helping immediate family get their vaccine appointments, and just got my first (Pfizer) jab today, so I can vouch for the process.

While the floodgates open on April 15th here in WA, for folks that are having trouble getting vax that are eligible already, here are two resources that worked for us:

1. Kaiser Permanente Vaccination Hotline: 1-877-832-9915. Phone lines open at 7AM for vax bookings, though their information line is open all day.

We were able to book after a 25 minute wait and _ignoring_ the phone tree crashing once and telling us to call back later.

2. https://vaccinefinder.org/, which is a directory service for local vaccinations. My roommate's mother and father-in-law were able to schedule using it after most other resources dried up, 404ed, or crashed on them.

Other options should be opening up soon, but posting these just in case folks find them useful.

Fun fact: every one of my pseudonymous identities since ~2004 has used some rendition of the default Second Life cube. I wonder if anyone noticed.

cursed: default Unity cube
deeply cursed: default Blender cube

Realizing this "crypto-art"... thing... is just an advanced form of https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Million_Dollar_Homepage

Can we all just agree to trick these people into somehow paying taxes or supporting the environment instead?
