Late To the Fallout Party

I look at the image of Joshua Graham being tossed flaming off the edge of the Grand Canyon with Caesar standing over him as he falls and...

...all I can think of is "God I hope Caesar was wearing shorts"

Me trying a Dark Brotherhood vampire playthrough for the half-dozenth time: I'm going to be so merciless and evil Molag Bal will WISH I picked him instead of Sithis. Bad girl time, let's goooo

So being a medical cannabis user and general enjoyer of the herb, I of course downloaded Cannabis Commonwealth for my new Fallout 4 game.

Now, Cannabis Commonwealth is a great mod. Lots of thought was put into it, and the growing mechanic is about as close to realistic as you can get with this game engine. Also, the plant models are gorgeous. And it’s funny as hell when I have Morgan light up a joint and she stands there smoking and literally refuses to do anything else until she’s done. Relatable, especially after 210 years…

That said, there’s only one flaw to the whole experience. One tiny thing that left me frustrated and going on wild goose chases for days. That is: I couldn’t figure out who in the hell in the entire Commonwealth was selling buds and seeds.

After crippling our Fallout 4 with an obscene number of Bethesda-sourced mods I could never get into a proper load order, the hubs and I buckled down, learned how to use Vortex, and each got our own profiles with our own mod choices.

I no longer feel like a dusty old fail-gamer, and I can once again play Fallout 4 without it crashing to desktop every ten minutes! Now if I could just figure out why some of these mods don't work at all in my current load order...

For the Fallout New Vegas fans among my followers...this one gives more Courier 6 vibes for me than almost any other non Fallout related song.

Fallout New Vegas, but Lanius is such an utter himbo that various Legion officers are forced into Legate-sitting duty to keep him out of trouble. He’s nearly indestructible due to being just as badass, but he’s naive, terribly polite and has just the one braincell.

One thing that has seriously contributed to my sense of peace and my enjoyment of my time online is doing everything I can to make sure that people cannot contact me anonymously.

As an example, prior to turning off my anon options on Tumblr, I was dealing with at least a few nasty letters including suicide baiting every single week. The perps seem to have mostly been Antis, antifeminists/male supremacists, and (oh the irony) Tumblr’s particularly virulent breed of radfems. None of these have sent even one single note to me since I turned off anon. Not one.

Bullies are cowards. Tumblr bullies know deep down that they are being horrible, toxic dicks, and they don’t want their actions associated with their online identities. Otherwise they have to deal with the consequences of being shit-tier human beings where people can see it.

Sure, they could go create a throwaway account or something to cover their asses. However, most of them are lazy as well, or too out of their heads with buttrage to do something like that when they want to attack.
