I really hate it when that happens.
Every time I buy a new house, illegal aliens come in and take it from me. Thank you, Donald Trump, for finally addressing this definitely-real problem.

Man, Cattle Decapitation and Aborted absolutely killed it at House of Blues last night. I'm so happy I finally got to see them live. Incredible show.
Frozen Soul and Tribal Gaze also were fantastic.
Great night overall. I'm so happy I went.

After some ocean fishing and GATEs, I was able to get the mount from the Moogle event today. Was fun to log back into FFXIV. I'm sure I'll be back again soon.

The way tech companies constantly do stuff that nobody asked for really tells you a lot about their bigger ideology. They tell themselves that you will like it over time. What they mean is you’ll learn to endure it, or you’ll give up. quality of UI is not actually anywhere on their radar
new iOS update is sleek and also defaults in Music to “you must want songs transition as they would on a dance floor.” so many people will wonder why they can’t just listen to an album. Apps > Music > Song Transitions > toggle off.
