Found something late last night as I was bemoaning the state of the FFXIV Mac client a fanmade open source client. Created a trial account to test it out as I am not sure I will resub to the game yet but have been itching to play. As a Mac user playing this game, or well just about any game, can be a chore, but this actually does a really great job at it. It uses wine just like the regular Mac client but it doesn't require me to buy a special Mac client on top of owning the windows client and it enables DXVK which helps performance a shit ton.

George Wilson lived on Destruction Island in 1945 with his mother, Bernice Pendleton, and his stepfather, Niles Conrad Pendleton, who joined the Coast Guard after having served in World War II. Though George was just four years old at the time, he has vivid recollections of his time at the station.

There were five tame deer on the island, and they would come up to the kitchen window and beg for cigarettes, which young George dutifully rolled for his parents. During hunting season, one of the coastguardsman took a rifle, walked up to one of the deer, and shot it. Everyone else at the station was dismayed at the brutal killing, but they did enjoy the fresh venison.
