As some of you may recall, it was this October that I decided to relaunch my website and try to give the pottery a go.

A month later, our postal service decided to strike. Things were going really well till then, but today I accept the fact any holiday sales are lost, and we won't be getting our Christmas box from home.

If you can boost this post so that more people can see my work, it'd mean a lot at this stressful time.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles

FFCC is an action-RPG set in a world covered by a toxic gas, Miasma. Every town and city has a caravan of adventurers that goes out for most of the year to collect the only substance that can dissipate Miasma, Myrrh trees. To collect those, you go through an area's level and you get the Myrrh after that level's boss.

You make and name your own character with the choices of 2 genders, 4 races, and some visual options. Each playable race also acts as a class/battle role.
Your team can be up to 4 players, although the game is region locked, it's cross platform compatible between PS4, Switch, Android, and iOS.

You could play the game alone, but it's much easier and more interesting with a group, trust me, get a group together for this one!

I've always loved the English Voice Acting for the level intros 🥰

The first couple of levels are free to try out as a demo or demo-version of the game.

Please check out Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles

A reminder to all who may have Visa, AmEx, or Master Card gift cards now and in the future. Often you'll wind up with a small balance on them that doesn't make it worthwhile to make a purchase with it online or in a store. Something like US$1.60 or less.

Go to Wikipedia, Archive.org, your local animal shelter, or just about any worthwhile nonprofit and donate that odd amount on their web page.

Horses is the debut studio album by American proto-punk / punkrock musician Patti Smith, which was released on this day in 1975.

I currently have over $20K of consumer #debt - 75% of that at 20%+ interest. I am within $500 of maxing out both of my cards. Some of that was poor choices made in the throes of #cancer related #depression - but a LOT of it was simply covering expenses as I adjust to only a single household income as a fairly new #widow . Inexplicably, my most recent payment bounced TWICE, despite confirming that the funds were available before the second attempt.

I have been grossly underpaid by my current employer (at a job I otherwise love), but have been promised a wage increase in the new year to bring me closer to the median salary for my position, at which point I may be able to start digging out of this hole.

Anything you might be able to spare would be amazing.

This is a very comprehensive crash course on the various cuisines of China, HK/Macao, Taiwan, as well as the Southeast Asian Chinese communities - it even makes a lot more sense than most Chinese-language articles that still adhere to the Big Eight classification (even though Shaanxi, Teochew, and Hakka cuisines, for example, seem to be wayyyy more influential & popular than some of the cuisines included in the big eight!)
