I should have worded that better. I meant that he's not a huge fan of ASOIAF so it's quite different from the WoT situation.

He talked about this 8 years ago on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/4uwjq9/spoilers_everything_twow_isnt_coming_this_year_is/d6lotl1?context=3

He agrees with you. It's not his style, he doesn't think he's the right person for the job, and would decline if asked to do it.

And to the point made by @Albbi@lemmy.ca, at the time he had only read the first book so it doesn't seem that he's in the "huge fan" category.

Maybe something has changed since then but I really doubt it.

I just entered spring year 2 and I'd say things are going well.

I started building sprinklers in the fall but I'm up to 20 now so I should be able to sell quite a few more crops than previous seasons. Also built a few fish smokers which has definitely boosted my fishing income.

No animals other than my cat and the fish in the tank that I put in my bedroom, but I bought a silo during the winter in preparation for raising some animals in year 2. That should make it easier to lean into cooking now that I got the first house upgrade too.

Pretty soon I'm going to marry Penny. I haven't gotten a ton of progress with other townsfolk yet but I'd like to boost my relationship with Pam because I think she could use a friend if Penny moves out.

Aah, you were at my side all along. My true mentor... My guiding moonlight...

That's actually why Mr T adopted his moniker.

I think about my father being called "boy", my uncle being called "boy", my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called "boy". So I questioned myself: "What does a black man have to do before he's given respect as a man?" So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man. I self-ordained myself Mr. T, so the first word out of everybody's mouth is "Mr."

From a min/max perspective I'm not sure. I just never cared for the Tonitrus, mostly because of its low durability.

The interesting thing about a pure arcane build is that you often don't even need to use your weapon because the hunter tools deal so much damage. For a ton of bosses you can just create five blood bullets, heal back up, use the executioner's glove twice, and repeat until the boss is dead.

Check it out sometime! There's also a ton of useful information in this guide: https://www.bloodborne-wiki.com/2017/04/the-arcanist-20.html

¿Por qué no los dos?

99 ARC with fire saw spear + bolt saw cleaver is my favorite build

They love Madison Square Garden. Every year for New Year's Eve they play 4 shows there, plus they did a 13 show residency there in 2017 and a 7 show residency in 2023.

Yeah, everyone is saying Red Rocks but they haven't even played there since 2009. They've played at Dicks 45 times since 2009 because they do 3-4 shows every Labor Day weekend.

I'm not sure why everyone is saying Red Rocks. Phish played three shows there in 2009 but they haven't played there since.

The real answer is that every Labor Day weekend they play 3 to 4 shows at Dick's Sporting Goods Park outside Denver (except in 2020 when the shows were cancelled).

RIP to a legend

For the last couple decades, Phil was an outspoken advocate for organ donations thanks to a donor named Cody who saved his life. Every concert he would ask people to consider becoming an organ donor. If you're not already, think about it. As Phil said, you could "save the life of someone you'll never meet".

But we would eat Kraft Dinner
Of course we would, we'd just eat more
And buy really expensive ketchups with it
That's right, all the fanciest-, Dijon ketchup, mm, mm
