a screenshot of a gaiaonline journal, posted by user ashubunkin. their avatar is rose pink and white with a dramatic grey background. the screenshot has two screenshots nestled within, with include 3 FFXIV fish and a screenshot of ashe wol in his tropical fishing glam in the coerthan cold. the journal text won't fit entirely in alt text, but here is most of it: 

a quick preamble: i've been sporadically recording my fishing progress in various discord servers and on bluesky. nothing is easy to find and everything is fleeting, so what better way to record this stuff than gaiaonline in the great 2026?

as of starting this, i've completed the A Realm Reborn fishing log and am more than half way through Heavensward. there is, frankly, an insane amount of fish in Final Fantasy XIV, and the big fish in particular have extraordinarily specific requirements in order to catch them. to prevent overwhelm, i figured that starting small would be the easiest way to achieve <<The Final Fish>> one day.

Fisher's Log: February 23, 2026

at the time of writing, according to Carbuncle Plushy, i have only 16 Heavensward big fish remaining. the "easier" big fish are for the most part completed, and many of the big fish windows are 20+ minutes apart, as opposed to many being up at the same time and forcing me to choose. to fill time, i'm working on easier fish and the fishing relic in Heavensward.

fish one: Thinker's Coral

step one of the Skysteel Fishing Rod requires 40 pieces of Thinker's Coral. this brings me to the Thaliak River in the Dravanian Hinterlands. it was a new addition to my fishing log, bringing me to 1,094 unique fish. in catching 40 pieces of coral, i also caught a couple other friends. they also have single ! bites, so until i realized that the coral sweet spot was between 7 and 12 seconds of cast time, i caught 28 Autumn Leaves and 18 Shipworms, to be exact.

fish two: Dragonspine

step two is 60 Dragonspines, planting me at the Dragonspit fishing hole in the

If you're doing callout posts about artists creating fictional taboo content, you may not consider yourself a fascist, but you are one. You are their stupid tool at the bare minimum. The good news is you can stop doing that at any time

yeah okay maybe me saying "gave blue the game for free" wasnt the nicest but leaving an s rank in onsal to the team with 400 points over the other two teams ISNT A SMART MOVE. LIKE OBJECTIVELY

frontliners are such specimens to me because you can ask "why did you leave point and fight the losing team" and people will say back "stop being mean to your teammates"

all of the streamers that i am still friends with today or still admire quit a long time ago. the industry was eating them alive. i wasn't even big fish by ANY means and it ate me alive. it is just not a very healthy or well-adjusted industry

i dont want to speak over anyone but i was tangentially involved in the streaming space over 2020 to about 2023, give or take, and 99% of people who pursue streaming as a career are not people who are enjoyable to be around

a screenshot of a reclear ad. it reads: 
[6/8][LFM][Savage Reclears][Healer]

posted by ashe k 

hiya, we're a group of 5 friends that have pf'd the tier and cleared week 2 and 3. we committed to just pfing the remainder of the tier but with the amount of time it takes to fill and the amount of LM parties, it's killing the vibes heavy. we're just looking to get our loot and go while making sure everyone gets the mount. ideally we'd make sure everyone ends up with 8 clears of m12s minimum.
 
time for raid is Tuesdays starting at 4 PM PT, going no later than 10 PM PT. alternative days will be planned for if the day goes abysmally but please don’t make us do that lol.
 
only requirements are be chill, be respectful. we don't have to be friends but we have to be cool. LGBTQ+ friendly is required, VC will be provided, but you don’t have to speak. just listen at minimum!
 
this group will start on 2/17 with next reset. i’ve been playing and clearing the tier as melee VPR but will flex to regen for the right gamer. the second melee spot can be caster, but you must know melee spots. we are willing to take m12sp2 proggers but you must be at idyllic or later.
