Man, those crypto bros somehow have even less self awareness than the sports dudes

Correction: I have been playing HackNet! My bad, i misread your post. Clearly we need more names for cool games.

Played it for the first time recently! Unfortunately it seems to have some stability problems, it doesn’t launch saves for me so I’m on hiatus

In fairness, some games serve their purpose and are done. A simulator can run out of upgrades and new functions. Fall guys is live service but you can still play all the maps and be content you’ve had enough.
A game can end, or you can be done with something even if you haven’t completed it and that’s okay. Play to have fun, if you aren’t having fun stop playing it, life is too short to force yourself to keep going when it’s no longer rewarding.

Now this is a truly difficult take to read. I found the game utterly charming. The exploration of relationship between the player, the player character, and the narrator is great fun and well written. Finding all the endings requires cleverness and outside the box thinking. It’s a very British humor type of game but it’s worth every penny.

Out of curiosity, what alternatives in the genre would you recommend?

I’d love to have more people on my ship but setting it to public doesn’t do much and gods help me if I think I can swing pitching this game to my gaming group

Man, you mentioning pirates online had a reboot was news to me. I played it for like an hour as a kid and always wondered how good it was. Long story short I mastered fishing yesterday and am enjoying the experience even if it did derail my entire day.

I’m just glad to see a man in the process of bettering himself even when easy, cop out, answers are everywhere. You’re doing a hard thing but with that comes the knowledge that you’re doing it right, no shortcuts.
I could say to be a better person for your partner or your son, but honestly most of all be a better man for /you/ because you deserve to know what a fulfilled life is like and feel safe and comfortable in the quiet hours.
The journey may never end, but it definitely does get easier and more enjoyable if you just keep growing from what came before. All the best to you!

Hey man, I’m glad you’re able to have some honest introspection whatever the methods used to get there. Never be apologetic about sharing genuine emotions in a healthy way, life’s too short.
I grew up in an angry household too, I was the primary inheritor of my abusive father’s anger. My father lost his family because he couldn’t control his emotions, and watching that happen is a big part of the reason I mastered my anger after some missteps in my youth.
You’re not wrong in how you describe it, just being angry and letting loose is addictive in a way. I’m grateful I had people supporting me as I learned how to break the cycle, I hope you’ve got a support circle just as strong as mine was.
As for all you’re going through and what your mom is dealing with, I’m sending you a big brotherly hug over the internet, I wish you nothing but the best. If you ever need someone to lend and ear and talk to, please don’t be a stranger and drop me a DM.

In a bit of a similar situation, my do as I say not as I’ve done would be to try to find a mutual aid group and/or begin exploring disaster preparedness and recovery learning and prepping.

It was the symbol of Hermes, the Greek god of messengers. It’s called a caduceus, and it was a symbol of peace that would grant safe passage to the carrier. For similar reasons it would be adopted by medical experts and come to be associated with medicine.

Except that if you’re stupid or oblivious enough to need to ask the question you’re unlikely to be smart enough to think critically about the response given by AI and avoid hallucination based misinformation
