  1. Tashkent... yes shes a god. I just maxed her skills yesterday, and she utterly fucking wrecks in everything. I'm steady wiping out vanguards in exercises now almost instantly. I dunno if they ever nerf ships, but god damn shes a lil monster. Once I get enough blueprints to max Saint Louis, and dump the 100+ I have for Monarch, I'll finally be able to push into world 10 without sweating if I'll get hit with an ambush with low HP ships on my way to the boss across the map. The previous event's ships were just dupes with lesser skills it feels like. And they're at best when tandomed with each other. I love how they look, it should have been skins.. which btw Saratoga's free skin thats up now is F'in adorable. OMG. And I totally bought Uni's L2D skin so cute. The pandemic has pretty much halted all the dubbing right now so I guess I'll have to wait a long time. I doubt there will ever be a another season. I read somewhere Yostar will make their own anime content from here on out, and it will be mostly shorts rather than full length episodes. They aren't pleased with the anime overall apparently.
  2. The internet is about to get lit son. I highly suggest downloading and redownloading games and other media you can use if there is no internet. XD Probably just a precaution and overraction since I was having a lot of constant loading and network errors on Azur Lane this morning. I suspect people will be hitting their mobile gaming more. I know Netflix decreased the streaming quality in Europe already anticipating this. I almost had a cow earlier when I won a PvP and it started loading a long time before registering my victory.

      Yup, I haven't been able to log in all day. -_-; I just want to pull for ships, I'm sure my oil and coin reserves are at max. At least there will be a ton of compensation in my inbox when I finally get in.

      Edit: I love you Yostar. XD first pull

  3. I didn't try a pickled egg until about 2 years ago. It was in a a sampler apptizier at an irish pub. I was surprised I liked it so I branched out. I like quail eggs because they're small and poppable. You get the whole experience in one bite. I prefer the hot n spicy ones, When they toss peppers in the jar to marinate in the pickling process, the eggs pick it up pretty good. They just suck to get out as you get to the bottom of the jar since they're so tiny. I found Wicked Cutz because I too was tired for dry ass tough/crunchy jerky. I was trying to find who made the most tender and succulent jerky there is. I found them and was sold. They have a Dry/Moist meter on each one and its pretty accurate. Some of the beef ones can be a little dry but they aren't going to give you a Schwarzenegger jaw line from chewing it. The Turkey Jerky is amazing. Its pretty addicting... and so is the bacon. I never heard of bacon jerky before, but I can sit down and eat the whole bag. There is another company that makes gator jerky and its utterly devine.... but its way too expensive for the tiny bit you get. Jerky on whole is too expensive as it is... so I rather buy WC's stuff than dry ass Jack's Links at the store.
  4. If you're having trouble finding non-perishable stuff at the store here are a few resources I've personally used over the years. There is no telling what you can get from amazon right now. These are niche items keep in mind. Hopefully no one will need to use these for their primary food sources. If you have expendable income to load up just in case, here you go. Food in a Pinch https://wickedcutz.co/ Amazing jerky. I recommend any of the bacon jerky, Korean BBQ Turkey Jerky, and the Orange Teriyaki Beef Jerky. They accept paypal, and ship pretty fast. If you like your jerky as dry as paper, and as chewy as dry rotted leather then don't order from here. That's not a knock, some people just prefer it that way. I recommend this one because its moist, and if you're in a pinch on food supplies, it can be a decent meal substitute. https://www.pickledstore.com/categories/Pickled-Quail-Eggs/ Pickled eggs.. you'll love it or hate it. Its a good source of sustenance. I recommend the quail eggs as they are smaller. The whites take in all the vinegar pickling flavor, if you don't like the dry yoke part of a boiled egg, quail eggs are perfect for this... if you don't mind that, then go for the full blown picked chicken eggs. https://conecuhsausage.com/ This one may be iffy right now because they supply A LOT of sausage to grocers in the south. This is a southern gem, and a staple in AL. If they still fulfill orders, the shipping will be pretty expensive as they ship with dry ice I believe. I sent some to a friend a few years ago as a Christmas present. There is nothing like this sausage anywhere. Purely a luxury item if you just really need meat and you can't get any. https://www.hickoryfarms.com/meat-cheese/ If you don't know what the deal is here, I feel sorry for you. 😛 https://www.nutstop.com/product-category/dried-fruit/ Dried fruit and nuts. Unfortunately they're already getting hit it seems. Message up top says it will take a week to process. Coffee https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ https://www.gevalia.com/ https://www.peets.com/ Some of this stuff can be found on Amazon, even with better deals. But like I said, in case you cannot receive these from amazon currently, these links are for just in case.
  5. I busted out this on my phone as we waited for our trucks to pull up to the dock, with people getting testy about wipes and spray.
  6. Not sure how it is everywhere, but here and in some other city's posting pics, there is food, you'll just have to be a little creative if you're a picky eater. Its mostly nonperishable stuff that's limited. The deli, bakery, and produce have plenty minus bananas. Frozen Food is decently stocked minus frozen pizza and veggies. Forget bread and eggs unless you're there on a delivery day.
  7. I'll be working 6 days a week until this is over with. I'll be raking in the fat checks for a while at the cost of being tired. I've kept up with my anime and mobile games, but that's about it. Our deliveries are 1/3rd of what our orders are. Today I put out about 20 cases of random pasta noodles, and it barely made an impact on a completely empty shelf. I stopped by my local philly cheesesteak place to get a to-go order so I could support them and have a nice hot meal getting off work.
  8. No reveal on what it looks like, but TmarTn has you covered because the 52 min video was boring and the guys talking were weird.
  9. WTF is this shit? I didn't know about this but god damn the the character designs are shit and look like gremlins.
  10. Naturally I have to wait til next week when it's dubbed. But now that I've played the game a lot since then I have too many best girls. Those new Northern Parliament shipfus are up there for me. The game had me sweating on my last cubes. I got Sovetskaya Rossiya on the very last day, normally I have them all by mid way through an event. Big ups to Yostar for the free 200 gems this past update, I needed to expand my dock. I'm not going all out on this ship thats up right now. I gotta save my damn cubes for when Taihou and Formidable come back around... even though that looks like its all the way in September. ;_; Anyways, looking forward to the new ep. I peeked the comments on Funi, and people seem to be pleased with the animation quality in the comments.
  11. *revives old topic* Overall I've enjoyed the Fate series even though its wacky timeline/universes are hard to follow. Some series are good, some are poor. Grand Order: Babylonia has been a blast. Even with a few eps left, I can confidently say this is my favorite of the lot.. which is kinda weird to me since Artoria Pendragon is my favorite hero of all the series, but shes not in this one. Grand Order definitely has the best battles of any of them. I guess I like it because its different in the fact that Gilgamesh is a protagonist, and its not some tournament for the grail. That battles are on a massive scale with super OP servants.... like the servants in this series are buffed to the max and beyond. The only drawback is that the season does kinda start out slow, and is a bit confusing to me since I've never seen this timeline before and it feels like there is another series before this one where you're suppose to know some of these new characters. But the animation style is pretty awesome. In the Dub they pronouce Leonidas "Leo-need-us" and it drives me crazy. wtf
  12. Its no secret I have an extremely poor diet consisting of mostly red meat and dairy products. XD But I have definitely cut back on sugar intake over the past couple of years. I'll still eat candy and sweets now and then, but I drink soda maybe a few times a year when something interesting comes out. (Like Dr. Pepper Cream Soda đŸ€€). I'll drink a glass or two of sweet tea when I go out to eat, and on holidays. But outside of that its coffee and water daily. I haven't put sugar in my coffee in probably 15 years. A few months ago I got into sparkling water because I miss soda, but at the same time I don't... I really don't enjoy it as much as I use too, but water gets awful boring sometimes. La Croix is fucking nasty, I already knew that well before this. But with the sudden explosion of new rivals I took a tour of whats available. Pepsi's Bubly is ok, The apple is probably my favorite out of all of them. Coke had Desani sparking water which was actually pretty good. The lime almost tasted like sprite... but they discontinued all of it for this new AHA shit with weird ass flavors. I tried Blueberry Pomegranate because it was the most normal one, and it seriously went flat before it even got room temp. I sat it down for a few minutes and when I took another sip all the carbonation was gone, wtf? San Pellegrino makes decent ones as well. But the best IMO is Perrier. I'd say Strawberry is the best, followed by Watermelon and Peach. It has a caveat though. There is something magical about the can. XD You have to drink it out of the can ice cold, and the flavor is good along with the different style carbonation (apparently it's natural). Once you pour it into a glass or get one of those plastic bottle versions, its not the same. It tastes flat and flavorless. Its very odd.

    But anyways. I don't enjoy sweet drinks anymore at all outside of tea. Maybe its a mental thing because it bothers my acid reflux, but it all started with the alcohol I drank, I moved away from rum or anything mixed as I stopped liking sweet liquor. Then it just kinda carried over to my daily beverages. I treat the rare soda as a dessert now. I can't stomach more than 1 in a day. I have no idea how I use to throw back 3-4 a day when I was a teenager. XD:barf2:

      I use to like those squirt drinks, but I have reservations against splenda which is what those are normally sweetened with. Mio and Crystal Light are the big sellers around here. The Kool-Aid ones do pretty well too. Which is basically what it tastes like to me. Kool-Aid. Not that I dislike Kool-Aid but I don't want to drink it all the time. XD Plus those Mio's have to be disposed of as hazardous waste in store when the are broken, and there is no explanation why. The only other edible/non chemical items that are disposed of like this are aerosol cans like cooking spray, and medicine. XD wtf... strike 2 and 3 right there.

      As for coffee I mostly drink Peet's Major Dickason's blend and Gevalia Majestic Roast. Since Its just me, I use k-cups for the convenience of a single cup at a time rather than tossing out half a pot of coffee. I generally order from amazon since you can get 75-100 packs for $30-40, rather than paying $10-12 for a 12 pack in store. I actually just subbed to Black Rifle Coffee Company yesterday. I got a sampler pack last year for Christmas but i didn't really care for any of them since they were all medium roast at as such tasted super weak. But now they have Freedom Fuel Dark Roast so I'll give it a shot. They're a veteran company and support a good cause by sending out free coffee to our servicemen and servicewomen overseas. After listening more about them over a Joe Rogan ep, I wanted to join their coffee club. They have an extra dark roast called Murdered Out, but they don't do k-cups yet. I'll probably swap to that if it ever happens. XD

      That coffee sounds good. Hazardous waste. XDXDXD I looked it up and its because it contains propylene glycol as a preservative. Theres industrial versions of it and food versions of it. I'm guessing your company has it listed as hazardous waste in the system because its all sorted by one generic listing of that ingredient. Probably because the industrial use of it is for antifreeze. XD

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propylene_glycol

      I found out Mio sold in Canada doesn't have the ingredient. I'm surprised these don't have that California cancer warning on them like every other product I buy. XD

      Interesting article about it:

      https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/propylene-glycol#section4

      I don't think I'll have to worry about getting toxic levels in my body with a couple servings a day. I do have liver issues and I have another liver blood test coming up in a few months so it'll be interesting to see if these squirt drinks affects my levels. I don't have any other drugs like ibprofin, etc. in my system anymore for the last 3 months except for asthma meds. Lady's been drinking this stuff for years and all her blood work has been fine except for high blood pressure which she recently started meds for over the last 6 months.

      Looks like those brownie bites might be listed as hazardous too, but then again they added some extra words to the propylene glyol so maybe not. XD

      And theres multiple flavors of Cold Stone creamery ice cream with it as an ingredient too and I had no idea. Apparently its in some Betty Crocker cake mixes too.

      https://www.coldstonecreamery.com/assets/pdf/nutrition/cold-stone-creamery-ice_cream_sorbet_ingredients.pdf

      Now that I'm done going down the rabbit hole of propylene glycol, I'll have to look up some other ingredients this weekend. XD

  13. I see Netflix stepped up their anime game just a little bit. I've been wanting to watch Akame ga Kill for the longest time and what do you know, its on Netflix and its dubbed. It was a fun watch but damn they savagely kill off a lot of characters in the most brutal fashion. There is no power of friendship to be found here. XD The last fight was 10/10. My only knock is the bit of DBZ'ism in all the fight dialogue "This is my ultimate move achieved only under these niche conditions which you now know!" XD And the constant letting the opposition prep for a big attack on both sides. Anyways, its worth a watch if you need a good violent action series to burn. I guess I'll check out Cagaster of an Insect Cage next.

  14. This season is 10 eps. Its definitely more of a build up to season 4. I hope we dont have to wait a whole year for this. Overall it was enjoyable. It was never boring, but you feel left hanging. The new characters are interesting.... well Lenore mostly 😍. Isaac is getting some serious development too. I enjoyed his plot line the most despite getting the least amount of time. There are 4 different plots, none of them intertwine, well, Isaac and Carmilla/Hector's are loosely connected. And those are the two that are left unresolved. This season is also way more mature themed than the previous. Not only is there violence, but language and sexual content.
  15. UGH. I totally dropped cash on AL to farm Tashkent (Totally worth, god tier destroyer). I need Ptilopsis so bad and I could use some Siege tokens. 😭 I might be able to get one 10 pull this go around. Edit: I got Ptilopsis on a single pull!!!! Thanks Yostar RNGesus.
  16. Holy shit this keeps looking more incredible with every trailer!
