The boys certainly aren't going to do either on their own.

A theory: if you are the only woman on a podcast your job is to make each episode either funnier or shorter.

every “ancient tradition” was invented between 1848-1870 and every “modern perversion” is so ancient as to predate writing

I am many things, but Afro-Caribbean is not one of them 🤷🏻‍♀️

Have reached the point where Google has no idea what language I want content in.

It offers me English articles under a French heading, French YouTube videos, and the other day it showed me an article about changes to Canadian immigration policy... in Jamaican Creole.

The girlies are fighting

- SCH - make this job a melee healer again (you cowards)
- AST I don't fucking know but it's definitely getting another full rework
- BLM should continue to have ever-more-complex rotations. Big brains only; dunces can go play with fingerpaints in the corner.
- Melee jobs in general need more positionals. Maybe ranged jobs too? Raise that skill ceiling!

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Honestly, most of the jobs are fun to play.

As for particular job changes, I'd like to see just more class fantasy in general.
- DRK lean in to "take damage to deal damage"
- WHM perhaps lean back into wind/stone/water, or even better (though they won't do this) split into geomancer like arcanist splits into SCH and SMN.
- DRG double down on mobility and the ability to sort-of-tank in certain situations. You're supposed to fight dragons, for gods' sakes!

For tank (the likely second job, if we get one) I'm all-in on Valkyrie - buckler and shortspear; high mobility; perhaps more directional than the other tanks.

If we are going north towards Aerslaent and the Blindfrost (they've said we aren't going to Meracydia for a while, so if we stay on the Source it's that or Corvos) it makes extra sense; perhaps less so if we delve deeper into the Mist Continent.
