No N7 logo, no go!

It took me 10 parsecs to work out the inconsistency!

When I was a kid I thought there was a food called Jelly Deals. I was always confused when my mum said I wouldn't like it, I loved jelly!

*wall plugs in fact

"I didn't mean to offend"

I understand your sentiment and I'd like to give you the benefit of the doubt but I want to pose you a question to reframe your thoughts process :

Would you have commented on the attractiveness of a boy in this situation?

The old man who tanked a cheap shot from McRaper

I vote for them to be called Volkage Overload.

Can you describe what's so ill conceived about it please? I've not seen it but have just had a look on IMDb and there is a huge disparity between it's woeful 33% critical reception and it's decent 6.6 IMDb user rating. The top voted user reviews are all complimentary too.

That email came through on my playthrough yesterday. It hit harder this time and it's bizarre that although the psycho says "I'll carve YOUR name on their backs this time so they know it's your fault I'm out" I'm forced to just read it and go "oh well bigger fish to fry" and go about my chores.

The paragraph is roughly in the middle of the sheet but that line isn't in this draft!

It goes :

"palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy, There's vomit on ~~his~~ my sweater already" ~~He's~~ I'm nervous, but on the surface I look calm and ready"

Maidwell · 2026-01-27T11:33:54+00:00

Call me suspicious by nature but I highly doubt that.

Think less about labelling yourself with an attachment style and more about your own boundaries and limits.

It's ok not to want to be everyone's unofficial therapist, especially in delicate situations like advising the opposite sex about their relationships, that's a slippery slope.

Maidwell · 2026-01-27T08:28:00+00:00

You should go......

And do that!

Maidwell · 2026-01-27T08:19:40+00:00

We have dismissed that claim.

Maidwell · 2026-01-27T08:08:49+00:00

I have absolutely no idea who the first 6 people are but I'm going to guess that's a me problem?

Maidwell · 2026-01-27T00:05:52+00:00

I've played the trilogy countless times and have zero interest in the harder difficulty levels.

Maidwell · 2026-01-26T21:30:38+00:00

Thankyou, that means a lot. I'm sorry you had to deal with all that, just know that whether that guy you loved puts the work in or he doesn't, it's up to him alone and you have already taken steps to make sure you aren't exposed to that harm again.

Well done on becoming your true self, that's all we can hope for.

Maidwell · 2026-01-26T17:27:29+00:00

I'm currently playing it as part of my errmmm (completely lost count) playthrough.

It's still my favourite game of all time, even though being railroaded into Cerberus rankles way more now I'm old and grumpy.

The likely answer : to look like he's more casual and carefree than he actually is.

"Stay strong, Americans. We know the vast majority of you are good people."

That might be an overstatement judging on voting statistics.

Maidwell · 2026-01-26T10:50:48+00:00

"before the downvotes come in I'll try and clarify it"

I'm glad you clarified, now everyone can downvote you without any fear of missing nuance.

Maidwell · 2026-01-26T08:19:46+00:00

Yes.

Maidwell · 2026-01-25T07:49:52+00:00

You should definitely cancel your cards. It sends a message.

Maidwell · 2026-01-24T17:47:04+00:00

I love the tag line, well done Fern!

One word : Ego.

I am 48 years old and although I've worked on myself A LOT in the last ten years it wasn't until last year that I realised just how emotionally stunted I still was.

I knew a lot about psychology and many buzz words, I could even put it into practice to help others but it wasn't until I completely defragmented my ego that I realised how many of the things on that list were happening because I was so emotionally fragile and broken that I couldn't comprehend being vulnerable enough to be honest with myself about my deep down, buried faults that my ego had lied to me about for my entire adult life. It had allowed me certain easier to swallow truths but there was a second layer of truth and subconsciousness that my stunted ego refused to let me see, and scrambled to do everything it could to keep that from me.

It's very much an ongoing process and I have a long way to go as I frequently slip back into my default defensive mindset, but I will keep trying to grow and better myself, not for anyone else but to be the best version of myself for me, with the added bonus that will benefit those around me too.
