A new study shows that the human brain stores what we remember and the context in which it happens using different neurons.

The FFXIV-Arcwolf Eorzean Date Converter

I went back to it, and I went HARDER.

So you could go a little less hard. 💙

The FFXIV-Arcwolf Eorzean Date Converter app is up and running! Check out the Aught Revision that explains it all here:

https://open.substack.com/pub/murderofarcwolves/p/popping-ffxivs-time-v2-bubble-the-aught?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

Then go try out the app here!

Share it with your friends!

If you really liked the app and wanted to, like, support it and stuff, that'd be great too! Cuz of the whole "trying to get a job thing." This time the links are on the app. 😸

Popping FFXIV's Time Bubble – The Aught Revision: A Second Edition of Ellis's Extradiegetic Study and Reconceptualization of the Relationship between Earth's Arrow of Time and Etheirys's

Pop the FFXIV time bubble with the Aught Revision. Includes the official FFXIV-Arcwolf Eorzean Date Converter app to synchronize Earth and Etheirys through Lived Chronology.

A Murder of Arcwolves

I am so stressed about today being January 6th, that I haven't been able to finish Act I. But final edits ARE on Scene 3, so we're close.

At the end of Scene 2, you get Maxx waxing frustrated at U.S. politics from the POV of a FFXIV original character.

So please enjoy while I finish the rest! 💙

THE LINE

I will this night
In several posts upon his pad alight,
As if they came from several citizens,
Writings, all tending to the great opinion
Allag holds of his name, wherein obscurely
Kæsar’s ambition shall be glancèd at
And after this, let Kæsar seat him sure,
For we will shake him, or worse days endure.

THE FOOTNOTE

This is all a very pretty way of saying, “I’mma do a social media misinformation campaign!” And I think we all have a lot to be grateful for that social media’s only just starting to be a thing for us. Pray for your players, though; they’ve gotten so good at misinformation, some of them elected a Spongebob Squarepants-shaped Roegadyn who dyes his marmot-fur toupee every Loporrit’s favorite color to be their head of state.

Humans are a problem in every multiverse, I swear.

Citing others' works in FFXIV is always important to avoid plagiarism and to respect the contributions of your scholarly peers. 😜

(I am feeling a little better today than two days ago. Thank you all so much for that. 💙😻)

Finally, you get my FULL mathematical conceptualization of a 1:1 conversion between Eorzean calendar dates and Gregorian calendar dates.

Enjoy! (Or if you hate math, suffer!) But with love. 💙

EDIT: TFW you find you redefined a word instead of explaining it.

Oops, and fixed! The key moment:

  • True mathematical randomness: quarter lands on heads 100 times in a row with low probability but zero shame

  • Lived experience of randomness: actually stochasticity, not randomness

Popping FFXIV's Time Bubble: An Extradiegetic Study and Reconceptualization of the Relationship between Earth's Arrow of Time and Etheirys's

An extradiegetic study reconceptualizing the relationship between Earth's arrow of time and Etheirys's. By harmonizing evolutionary psychology with user-experience design, this article dissolves the static nature of MMO time. It introduces a functional algebraic system to convert Gregorian dates into precise moments within the Sixth Astral, Seventh Umbral, and Seventh Astral Eras, establishing a 1:1 isochronal map for narrative roleplay.

A Murder of Arcwolves

I did a thing. Meet Liam Meri'a Morvelet, the Bard of Sagon.

First image:

Painted circa 1250:5AE, right at the opulent peak of the Fifth Astral Era, this oil-on-oak panel is attributed to the master Raoul de Valois. Now, I want you to look closely at the lighting. Do you see how the light catches the side of his face while the rest of the study recedes into that deep, dramatic shadow? This technique—known as tenebrism—was revolutionary for its time. It tells us that Morvelet wasn't just a writer; he was a figure of immense gravity, a man bringing the 'light' of intellect into the world.

Second image:

This was the basis for the first image, which I made using Gemini. It took A LOT OF TIME because AI hates "making images worse" (according to it).

The first image will be going here: https://taper-project.jijivisa.org/#find

To be fair, it was programmed by programmers, not artists. 😹 This is ethical use of AI, don't worry. I'm struggling. Caravaggio will be OK.
