TYS, add your own
I'm a treat berserker - I consume them uncontrollably and then become disproportionately angry with myself about it
Currently eating a bag of italian style croutons as a snack. Lord give me guidance.
Treat Monk:
- Only consumes obscure and esoteric media.
- Sounds cool in principle, but ends up with utterly insufferable takes on just about everything.
- Brings up completely random comparisons which almost work, but not quite.
- Never wins an argument. Just keeps going until everyone else gets bored and leaves.
Oh man I just remembered that white buddhist Monk guy that joined the chapo discord and got totally shit on for being a weird chauvinist who moved to Myanmar and didn't even bother to learn the language.
Necromancer: i will never stop restarting the Tolkein struggle session :sicko-pig:
treat necromancer could also be like someone obsessed with penny dreadfuls or 1920s pulp magazines but in an even weirder non-ironic way
"yo, you have gotta watch my favorite movie. It's from 1913, it's called The Lovely Horse Gallop."
thats exactly what an infantile anti-mordor trotskyite would say
I wanna be a treat bard

- get people excited to share the love of my treat
- pretends my treat is more intellectual/refined/tasteful than it actually is
- annoying/useless

Reminder (if you're in a hellhole where a VPN is needed for torrenting) to bind your network adapter in qbittorrent to your VPN so that in the event your VPN drops it doesn't automatically fail over into the host ("real") network interface and expose your ip for copyright claims.
This is found under settings -> advanced -> network Interface.
Also reminder that any game that you definitely legally own that only uses steamdrm can be played offline by using the Goldberg Steam emulator. Check the readme on that project page for more information/instructions.
I just use private trackers, never bothered with a VPN and I've been torrenting since it was a thing.
I really should spend some time to get into the better private trackers (MaM is the only one I've used).
My advice still stands for anyone using public trackers.
The private tracker ecosystem used to be so much more vibrant and easy to get into. Trackers like red with their weird interview shit are just about gatekeeping, that shit's for nerds. Cool trackers hand out freeleech tokens or don't give a shit about your ratio unless it's award winningly bad.
I'm trying to remember which site had a hectic interview in IRC that I had to study for - maybe what.cd?
one that is definitely 100% gone now.
Also, can't wait to get banned from XWT again like i did 10 years ago because australian internet was so shit
What.cd :sicko-wistful:
I don't remember there being an interview for that one but it's been so long. I still have some what.cd vinyl stickers floating around somewhere.
I followed a tutorial I found for Linux that tells my computer not to connect to anything except my VPN which I explicitly whitelisted.
If it fails, I'll just go online and look up how to undo it :blob-no-thoughts:
Treat Druid:
- Can explain in detail the mechanisms of capitalism that make their favorite treat a crime against humanity
- Smokes too much weed to forget about it all
- Clinically depressed
- Only really gets serotonin from the natural world and Cuban progressivism
- Spends too much time watching the treat warlock explain things
Ooh, this build fits nicely with my Treat Druid (Apothecary subclass)
Treat Elf
- Deep analysis of my treats via multiple theoretical frameworks
- Appreciation for a wide variety of treats, not just the ones I like the most
- Understanding of the full context and history of treats
- Haven't watched or listened to a new treat in at least a decade
treat grillman
- just wants to grill
- invites you to his cookouts
- knows cpr
:grillman:
My first thought was that a M1 Abrams could easily break any toy, but that would describe Treat Barbarian.
I vibe with treat cleric so hard but I'm gonna go with...
Treat Druid
- thinks if they make their own versions of treats, the treats won't be categorized as treats
- fridge full of Mystery Jars(tm). Is it a propagated yeast culture for home brew? Is it a variant of simple syrup? Is it bokashi serum? Try it and find out!
- starting to suspect they're an unironic posadist
- constantly trying to get you to start growing your own weed
- often shares the dubious products of making their own treats
I was thinking that none of these come even close to describe my complex relationship with treats but then I read Treat Warlock and I realized :stuff:
