Some of my genuinely open friends with poor memories (people get old, you know? Yeah, I go to a pottery class) have gotten blasted, and I hate it. Tbqh it ends up being ableist. Obviously most people understand, are chill about it, and don't get mad, but it's one of those invisible things like poor hearing, where it's easy to assume you're just being rude on purpose So seriously, why not just do a nice thing for people and make things easy for them? --- You did indeed stab me in the back.

Topic | Which job would you choose? |
banananor 11/17/21 10:57:27 PM #11 | this is a difficult question, and i'm going to give an annoying answer and say it depends on what you want your life to be about. like, what's your overall passions-life-money-family-relationships situation? do you have any desires outside of staying warm and being able to retire at a certain age? if you're fairly confident you'll reach those goals no matter what, it seems like 2 is the obvious answer. if not, you can roll the dice and go full indentured servitude at number 1 until you burn out melodramatics aside, here are my real suggestions. if you take job #1, go in with a game plan. i've worked at companies that "need" you to be on call on vacations, and it's both miserable and a joke- in that it's the sign of a poorly run company. you need to know exactly what job you're leapfrogging to within two years, and know why you can't do the same at job #2. places like job #1 can totally be a fun adventure for a little while! it'll just wear you down more quickly than you expect. you are a white-collar worker. in my experience, true advancement in white-collar land comes from switching companies, not promotion from within. maybe you can get a slight title change to make your next job application easier. advancement from within does happen, just at a comparatively glacial (perhaps more reasonable?) pace --- You did indeed stab me in the back.

Topic | What wins game of the year at The Game Awards? |
banananor 11/17/21 4:54:20 PM #10 | i'd call 2021 an understandably weak year. No matter what wins, it's going to feel like a bit of a fart. Let's look at past winners: Dragon Age: Inquisition The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Overwatch The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild God of War Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice The Last of Us Part II TGA clearly values an overall package, including a lot of production value type stuff. It's a rare and/or sad year that could give it to a fairly rote- if competent- 2d handheld metroid By their formula, Deathloop is the best overall package.
