If you're upset over a role playing game, it's simply about how you position yourself in the actions of others due to your personal experiences and morals. It really has nothing to do with a couple a friends who play a team of genuine assholes. I was upset weeks ago for Nott killing a baby monster because I felt it was super wrong, likewise how everybody else just deemed it an okay action to take. Is she still my fav character? Sure thing. Is it my game? Not a chance. Don't get your panties in a twist over spectating two friends having fun creating complex people, man. It's not worth the rise in cortisol. Go outside, pet a pupper, and compliment a random person.

Also a friendly reminder that not every old person can be categorised between "those who want to learn and those who don't". Sometimes people are scared. The world is changing so fast around them, faster than they comprehend, and sometimes they are forced to learn quicker than they want to. My dad died three months ago, and my 66 year old mother has been devastated. She has had to learn in the fastest most cruelest way possible how to fill in Internet forms, set up accounts, and get her now once again single life back in order besides mourning the loss of her beloved. I have taught her all these things. I may have repeated myself twenty times on how to use Internet banking. But do not, for one second, think that I will show anything less than the utmost patience for a woman who learned me how to wipe my own ass. Especially regarding to something that comes so naturally for us. My mother believes she burdens me by asking this again and again. There will be a lot more old people who feel that same fear, the fear of losing understanding of the world and the fear of burdening those who manoeuvre in it so easily. I encourage you to be as patient as you can. And if you're not convinced, I truly hope your (future) children are far more patient than you are now. Because one day, it'll be you who needs re-learning.
Me: “How can I help you today, ma'am?” Client: “Is e-mail internet”? Me: “I beg your pardon?” Client: “Is e-mail on the internet? I have no internet, can I still read my e-mail?” Me: “Well yes, you must be able to get online to view your e-mail.” Client: “Oh, dear. I can’t see my e-mail.” Me: “Well, let’s see. Can you open up Internet Explorer for me and tell me what you see?” Client: “Open what?” Me: “Your browser, can you open up your browser?” Client: “My…my…?” Me: “What you click on when you want to browse the internet?” Client: “I don’t use anything, I just turn my computer on, and it’s there.” Me: “Okay. Do you see the little blue ‘e’ icon on your desktop?” Client: “You mean I have to start writing letters again?” Me: “I’m…what, I’m sorry?” Client: “I don’t have any pens at my desk. I just want my e-mail again.” Me: “No, ma'am, your desktop, on your computer screen. Can you click on the little blue ‘e’ on your computer screen for me?” Client: “Oh, this is too much work. I’m too upset. Just send me my e-mail. Can’t you send me my e-mail?” Me: “We…okay, ma'am. Can you tell me what color the lights are on your router right now?” Client: “My what?” Me: “The little box with green or possibly a couple of red lights on it right now - it’s most likely near your computer?”
Client: “Lights and boxes, boxes and lights, just get my e-mail for me.
Me: “My test is showing that you should be able to get online right now. Can you tell me what you’re seeing on your computer screen?” Client: “It’s been the same thing for the last two hours.” Me: “An error message?” Client: “No, just stars. It’s black and moving stars.” Me: “…Do you see your mouse next to your keyboard?” Client: “Yes.”
Me: “Move it for me.” Client: “Move it?” Me: “Yes. Move it.” Client: “My e-mail!”

Sometimes it’s best not to be alone with dark thoughts…
Nott and Caleb are still stealing my heart with every episode. I adore them so so much…

Don’t tell your daughter that when a boy is mean or rude to her it’s because he has a crush on her. Don’t teach her that abuse is a sign of love.
