What I love about the pouches is how tiny so many of them are. Like, you couldn't fit shit in them. Do you really need to carry every piece of spare change in a separate pocket?
I considered bringing up problematic moral values in videogames in the GG debate because while I don't think GTA turns people into prostitutemurderers, there may be some real damage by only consuming media that constantly tells you that you are the hero, saving the world, fuck what laws you need to break because you are the law, and that everyone else is either incompetent or corrupt. It feeds rather neatly in the Randian world ideal.

There is a dog in Skyrim that follows you around waiting for you to complete a quest. (The dog is actually a devilthing in a dogbody)
I never did that quest so I had escort dog forever.
Until he sat down in a cave and wouldn't move. Nothing I did could move him, and I went through a few loading screens so I didn't have an autosave.
And that frustration ended my Skyrim run.
Yeah, the weird Selina segment was awful and terrible and that poor girl has a terrible face.
they went for somebody that looked like a cat. brilliant move, that. And seriously the little bit of that show I saw was just so ham-fisted. "My name is Selina...but you can call me...Cat".

Excuse me miss. What's the problem? The local gang kidnapped your son and you are too poor to afford ransom. Don't worry, I'll save him.
*brutally murders every member of the gang, without doing anything to protect the child first or to put him out of harms way*
Here is your son. No, I don't need a reward. I'm a good guy.
*gets 5 good guy points*
*steals everything in the woman's house, including things that will just be sold or possibly discarded to make room on inventory*
RPG morality is so weird.
One of the only times I'd seen a game actually do something with this was an old old jrpg. I can't even remember the name. But at one point you walk into a house and theres a chest. Well of course you open the chest and it gave some decent armor piece. As you start to leave the town, the sheriff stops you and says they had a report of robbery and you're caught red handed wearing the armor. He even says "What were you thinking? just walking into someones house and taking their things!" It put you in the jail, you lost the armor and had to pay gp to get out.

I've had a series of annoying arguments at work recently. Everyone knows they are pointless and arguing won't change the various issues but yet I get trotted around the circle all the same. These people must be bored.

It's probably a mistake, but today I'm getting a straight answer as to whether I'm getting a position at this place and how much I'll get paid.
If they don't want to put it in writing... well, It means they're not confident they'll keep me...
Yeah, that's pretty much definitely a mistake. Don't you have a couple months left?
That's a p shitty plan, 21st.
What should I do, then? Just... wait another month before they drop me and get a new intern to replace me? I don't really like this place and I don't want to stay much longer if they're just wanting free labor...
You don't want to work there, but you don't exactly have any other offers at the moment. Hang tight, don't make waves, and send your resume to everyone, everywhere.
Don't even mention walking out the door until you have somewhere to go.
I need to make mistakes in life.
You don't need to make easily avoided mistakes. Listen to me and deebs. We got this shit on lock. While you are seething with resentment in your job look up positions elsewhere and send out your resume. I bet you have enough downtime to do that while at work.
I can't stay here if they're not serious about keeping me.
look
just admit to yourself what you're doing
you don't like working; you'd rather be jobless and living at home with mom
so you complain and complain and try to set up these ultimatums that will result in you feeling justified in quitting
and living at home and faffing around with games
but you need to consider that you're a grown-ass man and trying to seize responsibility for your life is something you should be doing at your age
the intern economy sucks, but it's what's happening to people your age now. finish your internships. even if this place doesn't hire you as a permanent, it's valuable experience and will look good on a cv. learn how to set your jaw and suck it up and show up to a job every day. maybe even learn how to work and contribute!

media in can shape the way we think about things. it is right and just to critique media from this perspective. however, allowing disagreeable expressions is also an important thing, and there's some necessary friction between these two goals.

would taking a data science class at one of those tech learn-y places be a dumb idea
i am not sure
my friend took a back end web dev class at one of those places and then got a pretty good job after being a fucking health inspector
and i have 4 years of good consulting / marketing work experience
hm
hm
i'm thinking i might be sending in an NYU / Columbia bschool apps just to have options, tho hm not sure if bschool is the right thing for me
I wouldn't recommend going full time, but part times cool.
gooey can offer a counterpoint
nah if i do go to b school i am going full time i am p sure imo
This path worked great for Gooby. It didn't work so hot for other people I know. Im a risk averse scaredy cat that hates debt, so the idea of staying out of the work force and losing out on two years of career progression makes me nauseous. I also recognize that this is my neuroses and YMMV
If you can drop >$1000, buy a real bookshelf from a furniture store
If you cannot, buy ikea.
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

21stc if you are no longer anxious about job can you apply that same change to driver's license testing? Maybe that's something productive you can work on in the last month of your internship

This play on normal rpg mentality was great.
There was an Amiga game called Twinsen's Adventure where you run around opening boxes and getting stuff. At some point you end up in a town talking to a woman in her house. If you then run over and open drawers in her house, she says, "Feel free to go through my stuff, jerk!"
As a kid playing it circa 1990 or so I was quite surprised.
