Wish I weren't so fuckin' awkward, bud

My main motivation is inclusion on my resume, and I'm left mulling over usernames instead of contributing! I also don't want to be too personally identifiable for whatever random thing I want to chime in on, so maybe bifurcating is a good solution.

Definitely feel like I'll end up in a similar spot and barely use the "official" one. I do see people with full names and all working on and sharing whatever they please, like through Lemmy. I just wish I had the nads to embrace it and not worry about connecting myself to bs memery. Damn social anxiety. Don't look at me!

I laughed at "adult friendly" but that's seriously apt.

You would say that, TurtleFucker!

For sure. I wasn't even mad it was rushed and just was stoked to have it on pc. I remember a petition going around cause everybody wanted it so bad.

It was a culture shock when I realized how well later games played lol

No need to apologize. I have a feeling you'll be paying for your crimes soon enough.

We could be living in utopia, but those damn youths had to go and break stuff

It's like post-marketing. You're already a user/customer, but companies still want to put psychological hooks in you.

Kind of reminds me of steam's insane discounts or epic giving away games. That's more geared toward bringing people in, maybe.

I'd like to believe some instances of this sort of thing can be out of genuine appreciation for supporters, but I might just be naive... It is straight out of the abuser's handbook.

"I know you're sick of it, but I'm gonna need you to get the chicken Parm again. Trust the process!"

It's a bit of a chicken and the egg situation, I suppose, both encouraging and empowered by antisocial behavior. It's hard enough to convince someone there's a problem to begin with given the culture.

I do wonder how any transition could be made under an inherently opposed system, but that's also a key point of Marx with respect to revolution.

Unrelated, but I'm forever stuck trying to choose between a professional GitHub name and something like GermanBread.

At first I chuckled at the melon baller bit, but now I'm intrigued. Very carefully is all I can think of lol

But babe, we have to go out tonight. It's for science!
