Today is my first day as a Canadian citizen! 🇨🇦
I took the oath in both English and French on an internet video ceremony.
I was not born here, but Canada is the home I chose and love.
Celebrated it hiking along the Niagara Escarpment!

And here we see @Kripparrian blowing last night’s salt out of the way.

Lately, I've been spending a lot more time on @Kripparrian's YouTube thumbnails. His face is always on them, obvious or hidden. I've had a lot of requests to post them separately, so I'll be posting the best of them now and over the next few days, to avoid spamming you :)

So @Kripparrian went into surgery for the appendicitis, should be a fairly simple one. Sexy gown pic for good RNG

Weird how every other media outlet got the embargo right, except for Fextralife 🤔
We've seen some speculation that some people might already have access to the Early Access version of Path of Exile 2.
To clarify, some traditional games media have been given access to review a version of the game. Part of the stipulation that media were given is that this is for review purposes only. They may share their opinions of the game but are not allowed to produce “guide” style content from this version that would spoil the discovery of the game or post unedited playthroughs. They are not playing on the same servers as the early access version, so none of their progress will be kept. In addition, all of the content they produce is embargoed until the release of Early Access on December 6th, so no content is supposed to be posted until then.
Unfortunately there was a miscommunication with Fextralife that resulted in a video being posted early. This was a mistake on our end, and is in no way on Fextralife.
On release day, we want players to be able to make a more informed choice about if they would like to buy a key. We believe that allowing traditional games media access should be able to accomplish this without spoiling the game.

You have been visited by the corgi of subtle disapproval.
If you don’t share this within the next 1337 minutes you will be met with subtle disapproval by all doggos.

So 5 years ago @Kripparrian proposed to me, and he wanted to get me flowers today. Store was closed because it’s Good Friday, so he improvised a bouquet of pine, chocolate and pepperoni. Now you know why I said yes 😍

I quit playing WoW every night until 3am so I could finish my PhD, only to find myself 11 years later playing PoE every night until 3am... or 5am 😆

I noticed that the members of /r/hearthstonecirclejerk are having trouble choosing between Jaina's (unnerfed) top and Valeera's bottom for their new subreddit banner. Don't worry, I got you.
I give you, Jaineera:

I do greatly appreciate the GGG team. But I can’t help thinking that after more than 15 years of development, they should have better insights into resource and time management, and there’s only so many times the community will extend grace before moving on to something else.
Since the release of Path of Exile 2 in Early Access, our players have been asking about the future of Path of Exile 1 and the timeline for its next expansion. In this video Game Director Jonathan Rogers addresses the situation.

I picked up our new car today on my own, because @Kripparrian needed to sleep. Apparently, he arranged a bow for me 😊
Then, he was disappointed because I didn’t bring the bow back home :)

Doctor is out, said it was very inflamed but not ruptured, so everything went well. @Kripparrian is waking up now.

We spent a night away from Auckland and we visited the Tamaki Maori Villlage at Rotorua.
This is @Kripparrian learning the Haka...

Aaaaand they're back in business.
I seriously hope to never see Fextralife getting early access (or any other kind of creator perk) ever again from GGG, or it'll be a total joke.
Miscommunication or not, the spirit of the NDA should still be upheld, especially after yesterday
Unfortunately the 'misscommunication' continues, since Fextralive continues.
They posted a full walkthrough guide on their wiki + a TON of datamined info.

Today @Kripparrian woke me up with "goodmorning hon, can you log in PoE and give me 10 chaos"? 😆

Seeing all the PoE guys retweeting this with graceful quotes when I know you’re secretly screaming in a pillow 😂
In order to ensure a smooth launch, Path of Exile 2's Early Access will be delayed for 3 weeks. The new date is December 6th PST. Statement from Game Director Jonathan Rogers below.

Exactly 10 years ago on June 24th, I gave the final presentation to my exam committee and got my PhD. Time flies! I didn’t think at the time that I’d end up having such a different life, but my teaching & research years were fun and very dear to me 😊

Four years ago on this day I moved to Canada. It feels much longer! It’s not easy to leave a whole life behind, but we’ve definitely come a long way with @Kripparrian, and I couldn’t be happier to call this place home 🍁❤️

So Dex boi went into surgery today, twisted stomach most likely.
He had been throwing up yesterday and he was very lethargic so we took him to the vet first thing.
Send doggo your energy!

Came back from BlizzCon to find out that our doggos now hang out on the couch and watch Shark Tank.

I just told @Kripparrian that if he trims his beard more frequently, the hair may not like it there and migrate to his head. Will it work?

This is not a combined sight you get to see pretty often so here ya go 😄
We need more weddings. Or more casinos. Or both.

I'm finally catching up on @Kripparrian's emails after the trip, and I came across this. I don't think it's his type of game, but props for the marketing 😁
