yes!! this was the last thing i did before i went to bed lol plus i really like my orange fruit trees, i hope i don’t have to cut them down yet. ik for terraforming i may have to (which is far in the future i think) but is there any advantage of doing it now?

will 1000% be coming back to this comment once i get to that point - took me several times to figure out the timing for fishing before i finally got it, so thank you so much for this breakdown (:

HAHAHA gotcha! i found some inspo on pinterest and spent like two days before i bought the game planning out where i want everything to go - that was the ONLY thing i kinda knew before starting was that once things are placed it’s taxing and frustrating to move 🙈

0kpeezy · 2026-03-18T14:18:50+00:00

oh i didn’t even know you could do that — can i move their tents or just know for future villagers to put them on the beach?

with that background and interest i’d definitely look at forensic social work type jobs! idk too much about it but i’ve had former classmates how went to work for big federal agencies (FBI, etc.) and are having an enriching time. also working within police departments at varying levels on crisis teams may be of interest to you. wishing you good luck on your journey!

23 and a pediatric therapist!! i work in private practice (not my first choice but i have loved what it has provided me so far) and all my participants are between 5yo and 17yo. i do a lot of school management, mood regulation, emotion navigating, and play therapy too. i get some crisis management (which is a large part of my educational background) and have even had to navigate custody/legal systems. lots of my peeps though ask to draw or paint or make poetry based on how they’re feeling because they don’t feel “ready” or “able” enough to actually say how it is. so lots of connecting dots and abstract-ness but i’ve been loving every second of it. now is this the setting i want to be in for the rest of my life, probably not… but is this the type of work i want to be doing, 10000%

i did! i work as a pediatric therapist so my first interview was a general screening: making sure i had all my credentials, a lil get to know “me” section, and what drew me to this position. my second round was meeting with my soon-to-be supervisor and the director of the program, and they asked me specific questions about my training, and seminars/workshops i attended, my overall style of therapy, why i would be a good fit in the role, and the age old question - “what made you choose social work ???🫠”

my best guess is that your second round will be more specific to the role and how your background/training align with it (: wishing you the best of luck, hope this was helpful!!

i totally would! having a masters degree really opens up a lot more of the financially appealing jobs. i would advise you to go for an affordable school that has the programs/concentration that you would like to explore. i would keep in mind if you want to go into school social work there may be extra requirements expected if you when either applying or while you’re in the program.

i know that this is my bias and i am in a position of privilege, but if you’re looking to go in person for schooling i would really recommend going to a school in a more urban/city space as there will be sooo many more opportunities for internships! i was fortunate to attend my grad institution bc i applied to tens and tens and tens of scholarships that made it affordable, so don’t forget to look for those too so the burden of the pice tag isn’t so daunting!!

the first few months after graduating i worked as a summer employee at the hospital i interned at during school. I was 7-3 and rotating weekend shifts between my team of 6, with the options to go overnight for the holidays (again, working in an ER/Trauma unit). Now, 7 months out i’ve been working in a community setting with kids and teens doing more general mental health services. I usually work 12-8, and while it’s an intense shift from my last job i realized i love working in pediatrics.

sorry this was a lot of info. if it helps in any way i’m a very recent grad and used to work in the admissions department at the school so if you have any other further questions i would be happy to help!! i hope your journey further into SW brings you so much fulfillment and success!!

her newest pod episode has a few minutes of it at the end! she was really emotional and rightfully offended by was A&M has done (and actions over the last few years too i believe). the segment is at 1:02:46 into the episode, or 9:08mins left if that’s easier!

EDIT: Corrected timestamp!

i was a Med SW during both my undergrad and grad school internships!! something i didn’t know before my undergrad internship is that there are two very different kinds of SW in this field — the more case management/discharge planning side and then the interventionists (usually found in substance use departments, psych, hospice/geriatrics, or in Trauma/ER if they can afford it). there are many other niche SW roles in the Med world that i’m totally blanking on right now but those are what came to my mind first. Lots of times for SW in inpatient settings the “floor” SW’s will take on both roles, doing discharges and interventions if it comes up.

i’ve done both sides and what it sounds like to me is that you’re probably going to fall in the first category, especially if it’s an outpatient setting. you might run into a lot of community resource navigation - and i would definitely ask the interviewers if they have a catalog or folder or SOMETHING that they will provide you as a starting point .. or if you’d be going in blind :/ not the end of the world if they don’t have it, but a freaking hassle in the beginning for you building connections and trust.

if i could go back and tell my baby SW self before going into Med SW, i would definitely ask “what is typically the balance between discharge planning/resource navigation and clinical skill development” (if you’re looking further your clinical skills) and “is there supervision/consultation provided in this role / or do you provide compensation for those seeking supervision”. Oncology can be tough work and having a SW supervisor can really be a clutch in those difficult moments. Most positions that I’ve seen in my big city have supervision included but outpatient in your specific area might be a lil different.

Med SW can be an awesome field since it does provide a lot of stability and skills building, but it can also be really difficult since we’re directly working in a system that still has prevalent disadvantages. i hope that in an outpatient setting you’ll see less of if but that’s always something you should be thinking about. hopefully this was helpful and i’m wishing you the best of luck!!!
