so nobody feels ‘trapped’ in an unfun game.

I think this is an understated problem. It's simply awful to be in a slowly losing multiplayer game that you feel you have no control over, and when you also simultaneously feel that you aren't playing with people you care about. It's pretty easy to start not caring about monitoring your behavior. After all, who cares if everyone in this lobby thinks you're annoying or awful to deal with, you will never see them again, and if you do they won't recognize you, so act out your frustration without fear of real consequences. I also don't think bans for "bad behavior" actually address the reason people behave this way, it just encourages them to hide it in more subtle ways that automated scripts can't detect, or that give them some plausible deniability.

This is me on the weekends for sure. I feel like I'm wasting time even after I've cleaned my room, washed the dishes, done the laundry etc etc. Journaling, and keeping a to do list helps a bit, just lets my brain remember 'oh yeah I've done all the important stuff'.

Time to find out if they've learned the right lessons. I won't be holding my breath.

This isn't going to stop, just have to hope enough consumers have the wherewithal to say no to this sort of thing.

One of my all time favorites. The rest of the album is very hit or miss but this song has been in my rotation for years and is never leaving.

I hope we can do a little more at some point, but at least it's something. I hope it doesn't get treated as "enough".

It's just so trash, the quality is just unbelievably bad, and I cringe whenever I see someone wearing something that looks so flimsy and poorly made.

To an extent, think work friends versus the kinda friends you meet at a concert, or at the gym. It's not necessarily a "different" personality as much as shifting behavior and topics a bit. In short, I'm gonna talk a little different around my young engineering friends vs the guys I've known since high school.

Yeah that one hits a little close to home for sure.

It makes me deeply uncomfortable to entertain the thought that "the paper towel industry" is an entity out to manipulate me.

I have waited so long for this.
