    It’s taken over six years, but now I have an arbitrarily large number of internet points on a slowly dying internet forum by mostly visiting a slowly dying hyperspecific subsection of that forum

    I should reward myself, I think

    Yeah. That is kind of the successor to Myst. It wasn't as popular, though.
    Really, I have not finished a Myst game. I almost finished Real Myst. I wonder if gog has my save. I was on the last extra book of it.

    Real Myst always seemed to me the best way to play Myst. In full 3D.

    I think Uru is better than any Myst game because I played and beat it without cheating and using a guide. The puzzle difficulty was juuuust right.

    a former colleague with very good intentions referred me to a sports analytics startup

    there are many people who would be really interested in that and have so much fun, but for me it's an absolute non-starter

    dunno whether I go through the motions with the recruiter for the interview practice or if I'm just like aw thanks but no thanks

    but you could use the data to fuel the new gambling addiction you'd develop

    a guy at my former company used the platform to run predictions on soccer games and made a decent amount gambling with said predictions

    I really don't like gambling/it makes me nervous, and to me sports data is possibly even more boring than financial data

    I think I just gotta politely thank the guy for reaching out and turn him down

    but what if

    Thanks, I hate it.

    Although it doesn't include my least favorite one "moving forward". Just say "From now on", for god's sake. Saying "moving forward" implies that you are more than happy to "move backward" as well. It's a filler phrase. No one would say "moving backward". Jesus.

    some of these have crept into my vocabulary over the last few years and I'm mad about it >:[

    Fuck.

    I have spent the last 2 weeks talking about how much we need to write down our pain points, and about how we need to get buy-in from management and others to fix shit. I also use solo, optics, and bandwidth in the context of us being overwhelmed soooo much.

    I have Strange New Worlds, Obi-Wan, Stranger Things, and Shoresy all open in new tabs, an open book lying beside me, and I am in a pretty good mood chat.

    I need to do some outdoor shit but it's all overcast and misty outside and I'd rather just drink beers and maybe fall alseep AFTER I put the candle out this time.

    Firewatch was pretty great.

    If you don't mind just a wee bit of combat, button prompting, etc. then Enslaved: Journey to the West is a deep cut from like 10 years ago that was amazing. Also Until Dawn, honestly.

    I haven't done Life is Strange/Gone Home/Witness but I hear they're awesome.

    Journey lost my attention pretty quick though.

    I hate this so much. Like, I have ADHD. I constantly have to struggle with it, and I take my meds every day so that I can kinda sorta function. I don't have a superpower. I'm not special. The notion that de-stigmatizing means that we instead have to worship disabilities/impairments (I tend to think of my mental shit as a cognitive impairment rather than a disability, like I'm drunk all the time on anxiety, depression, and a lack of dopamine). It's okay for things to be bad! Like, if my kidney just didn't work right and I had a condition there wouldn't be any stigma, it's not my fault I got a shit kidney! I got a bum brain, and that sucks, but like it's not my fault my brain is shit! I don't think that it's my fault, and no one else should either.

    Or maybe I have super justice sensitivity powers, where through no fault of my own I am just better than some of you, you "normies." I didn't study and work to develop my sense of right and wrong, I didn't try to improve myself as a person, I haven't spent effort and time to make my character more virtuous, I was just given this by the grace of having a brain with dopamine issues.

    Suck it nerds.

    All of these things basically end up coming back to this for me:

    Myst recently got a remaster that I think was decent? They also added the ability to randomize the puzzles if you've played before, so that is neat.
    I was a big fan of Obduction. It does both 3D movement and point-and-click/node based movement.
    I liked the puzzle solving of The Witness, but Jonathan Blow is kind of insufferable so ymmv.
    A little less "exploration" and maybe not quite chill (gameplay itself chill, but content isn't as much), but I absolutely loved Return of the Obra Dinn.

    I have Life is Strange but every time I've picked it up I drop it after an hour or so. I think it's the pacing.

    Spool sent me The Long Dark a while back, the one with Jennifer Hale in the frozen wilderness, and I tried so many times to do well at it, but I kept dying a lot, which is embarrassing for someone that's made fire with two sticks once.

    All of these things basically end up coming back to this for me:


    I have that really ingratiating friend that always feels like she has something to offer me about mental health, and last week she was pestering me about the depressive slump I’ve been in. She tried to tell me, “yoga changed my life!” and I needed to get in to see a naturopath and I just very directly told her to stop suggesting those things and I don’t believe in any of it.

    She was taken aback and seemed to be kinda offended, which honestly I’m not sure it’s her right to be. I didn’t ask her for any help, and I sure don’t need to be pitched on snake oil bullshit when I’m juggling thoughts of self-harm.

    She hasn’t said anything to me since then, so I guess she took the hint.
