Today's six o'clock (well, ten 'till) wake up call was the dream equivalent of a time lapse video of someone taking a nap in the woods, and having their face and upper shoulder area covered by an ever expanding ball of ~fist sized beetles of varying colors. Dream ended somewhere around the point there was something like three dozen beetles just kinda' chilling on some dude's head. Also distinctly remember the words, "Sleep through several pounds of woodlice" and the most amazing scorpion fight pun.

Namely, the screen (?) displayed the words "Scorpion Fight" and a dude walked in carrying a downsized siege weapon (maybe about the size of one of those smaller old black and white TVs? Lil'bigger than a human head.). The perhaps oddest thing is it was actually a fairly decent example of a scorpion, despite me not having seen an example of one of those things in probably half a decade.

The merkeli-li is real, obj. You could even say it's an objective existence.

*shrugs* I wouldn't call it silliness. Just a difference of aesthetic.

Set 'imself on fire and molest dozens of cats while rolling in a pile of money, right? Not what I'd do (Firetruck bobsledding ftw), but it's a solid plan.

... or I guess getting an animal for the fire department or something boring like that.

There also seems to be a fair amount of support for jeb, for some ungodly reason. Apparently a fair chunk of people out there do want to continue the bush-clinton dynasty.

It's running just fine on 1.3.1, it just has that XP bug.

Oh. Well, yeah, except for the character sheet bugging out. I just, uh. Haven't been opening it. I mean, obviously, because it errors and doesn't open, but I mean just kinda' ignoring it's a problem, since it kinda' isn't. When you're like fifty levels above the zone's upper cap, checking resists or whatever is just a titch unnecessary.

E: Mind you, I play on normal most of the time so I don't really have to pay particular attention to the charsheet anyway, so not having it doesn't really make a difference for me. It's a bug completely trivial to play around, for me, heh.

E2: Eesh, when you run into an unlimited zone, though. Those drops off level 120+ randuniques.
E3: Level 88. Just now got the exterminator cheevo :V

E4: Level 90. Weirdling Beast is finally dead. I... guess I'll go step on the master now...?

E5: Well that's the first time I've seen that happen. Derth's population just killed off all the elementals before I even made it inside the circle. Seemed to happen just because a boss and about five unique villagers generated. None of 'em over level 20, but they managed all the same. Also yes, I just walked into the derth thing at level 90 :V

E6: Dreadfell 3, character is now level 126. Resist all is currently capped at 92%, with 6% more room to grow and still increasing thick skin and 4th tier volcano turtle talent. Thank you, based true grit. Combined with the eternal guard I, uh. _{I'm not taking much damage.}

Mooostly a steamroller, since the character hasn't even opened up the home yet, nevermind reached dreadfell or the east or whatev', so it kiiiinda' runs in to the upper level bounds of... everything, really.

The uniques mod does occasionally generate a critter with level parity, though. That mostly just means it takes a while to kill

Could probably make it rougher if I changed up the settings on said mod to beef up what it generates, but eh.

E: The really fun thing is the character is also running the chaotic races addon. If I didn't have another addon that let you unlearn skills, my m menu would be an unworkably laggy mess. 79 levels of random talents really clutter the thing up.

... character would also have like four or five points in leaves tide, which is completely useless for something that's not using mindstars at all. Game keeps wanting to give me points in that for some reason or another.
