  Every day should be caturday

  Good Morning, Folks! I had a friend ask me about getting a trial carry in #PathOfExile2, which made me realize it might be nice to have a guide that demystifies the process. So that is what you get this morning. https://aggronaut.com/2026/06/18/how-to-buy-a-carry/ #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming #PathofExile #POE #POE2 #BossCarry #TrialCarry

  Good Morning, Folks! Last night we had Thursday Funday and quested as a group in Orr, but before and after that, I focused on World Completion on my Guardian in #GuildWars2. Thankfully, it is still a super chill process that I find deeply enjoyable. https://aggronaut.com/2026/06/19/world-completion-still-chill/

  I've never been a fan of christian music, but Jars of Clay broke into the mainstream and I became a fan. I remember going to a concert thinking it would be a normal concert... then there were people in the aisles doing the "celestial benchpress" as my friend called it, raising hands to the sky and such.

  Good Morning, Folks! It's another #MixtapeMondays, and this time I have a very melancholy mix of 90s alt-rock that I am referring to as Jangly Bits. The blend is very near and dear to my heart because all of this means so much to me. https://aggronaut.com/2026/06/22/mixtape-mondays-jangly-bits/ #Mixtape #Playlist #music #amlistening

  Morning Folks. This morning I talked about some more #GuildWars2 nonsense. I also talk about #PathOfExile2 and the upcoming Phrecia event in #pathofexile. https://aggronaut.com/2026/06/24/tequatl-and-phrecia/ #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming

  It annoys me that the president took a thing that already exists aka a civics bee and gave it a lame name and treated like it was a new thing

  Morning, Folks. The whiplash of returning to #PathOfExile phrecia event after playing a ton of #PathOfExile2 has made me realize a bunch of the things that I hate about mapping in #POE2. https://aggronaut.com/2026/07/01/mapping-in-poe2-kinda-sucks/ #arpg #mmo #mmorpg #videogames #games #gaming

  I am guessing Mandalorian and Grogu has not opened internationally yet... because no copies seem to be floating around

  Good Morning, Folks! This holiday morning, I continue my #MixtapeMondays series, this time focused on #Eurovision and the songs that live rent-free in my head. Many of these I thought should have won their respective years, but did not get the love they deserved. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/25/mixtape-mondays-spectacle-politique/ #mixtape #amlistening #music

  I have an employee named Jeffrey... and this song lives in my head while I am talking to him... especially the Jeffrey with One F portion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xf5mRBPzTQ4

  Good Morning, Folks! It is time for me to drop another #Mixtape on you from my #MixtapeMondays nonsense. This one is very much going to be an acquired taste, because it is essentially a nostalgic trip through the music that I used to skateboard to. This is what skater rock looked like prior to the existence of THPS. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/11/mixtape-mondays-road-rash-rail/ #music #amlistening #indie #punk #thrashcore

  Friends... It's Eurovision season. Looking forward to watching the first of the semis tomorrow.

  Continuing to play some #LastEpoch and really enjoying the Acolyte/Necromancer so far. It's weird how over the last few years I have pivoted wildly on my opinion of playing "finger wigglers" aka casters. I sorta blame #PathOfExile to be honest because that is a game where playing a melee character... is the wrong choice heh.

  There is a whole-assed coffee table, but Gracie decides to stand exactly on top of the book my mom wanted me to buy for her... Thankfully, she didn't do anything to it. #Caturday

  @alice@mk.nyaa.place weird, I am way more used to devoted zealots commenting than single-issue people

  @alice@mk.nyaa.place making your entire personality about what operating system you use, regardless of mobile, desktop, or tablet... is exhausting

  Good Morning, Folks! Yesterday was the bit #PathOfExile2 reveal stream for the Return of the Ancients league, and holy crap was it massive. There is no way I can talk about everything, but this morning I discussed some of the high points for me personally. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/08/ancients-league-is-gonna-be-wild/ #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming #PathofExile #POE

  Morning Folks. This morning I got curious, and it seems like #Diablo4 hit a new all-time peak on SteamDB four days ago. Combined with the activity I am seeing in-game, it seems like the game is in a very healthy state right now. I talk about this. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/07/diablo-iv-has-good-numbers/ #D4 #DiabloIV #LordOfHatred #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming

  Good Morning, Folks. Last night during sibling time, I ripped the band-aid off and went through the annoying process of respeccing my Paladin from Thorns to Arbiter/Blessed Hammer, and it has made a massive difference. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/06/arbiter-is-awesome/ #Diablo4 #D4 #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming #Paladin #Arbiter #BlessedHammer

  I just had a brief panic attack as I could not remember if I fed the ferals.... so I checked the cameras, and did in fact see my dumbass lumbering out there to feed them

  My hot take of the day is that the worst thing WOTC ever did was create the reserved list. I think they should burn that shit down and reprint everything on it. I say this having tons of reserved list cards... but it's a game, not a stock market

  Morning Folks. It has been a bit since I have done what I am mentally referring to as "State of the Bel" post, where I talk about how the journey with cancer and chemo is going, and how I am doing. So that is what you are going to get this morning. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/05/state-of-the-bel-round-three/

  @stargrace if you can at some point get to Cactuar, even temporarily, at a minimum, I can get you in our linkshell

  @stargrace@gamepad.club yeah, I think both have to be on the same server even to make it work, but for future reference, hit O and then Player Search and choose to search either on the first or last name, and it should bring them up if both players are on the same server, even if just temporarily through server visiting.
