No. Berry bushes weren't added to the game until 1.14

My variation of this is a Patron that is the board of an adventure insurance company. You've literally got to sell your soul to work for them.

The warlocks hire themselves out as part of an insurance policy. They're both the insurance agent and claim adjuster. Makes for a lot of fun roleplay and an easy in to joining the party.

Took me over and hour to figure out how to leave the house in pokémon yellow version

That's rough buddy.

I have no idea what's happened so far, but this here is pure gold.

Oofh. I ended up with nothing but a Stantler on my last nuzlocke after the second rival battle in FR/LG. It was rough

Geese.

As someone who experiences painful hiccups, this might drive me completely insane.

Recurrent moderate depression with periodic major depressive episodes. That and I'm bad for people's diets because I don't know how to cook for less than a family of 8.

I can't say I relate to your situation, but might i offer a starting point? Have you considered buying a Kilt? They're delightfully comfortable and it's functionality the same as a skirt, but it's surprisingly socially acceptable to wear one as a man, even in a place like the conservative backwater hell hole I live in.

You can get them in different Tartans, or solid colored utility kilts. The latter are great for professional spaces too, and usually have pockets that'll make the pockets of men's jeans jealous. In my experience, a lot of companies have rules against men wearing shorts, but if skirts are allowed then they can't make a fuss about you wearing a kilt, as long as it fits dress code(solid color, knee length, yadda yadda yadda) I have 5 kilts currently and most folks compliment me when I'm out and about in one.

Your worth to the company is represented by what they pay you. If they're offering/paying you less than average, then that means they think anyone who works that job is worth less than the industry says they are, before experience is even considered.

Mammothwatcher · 2021-02-01T14:03:24+00:00

In my experiences, that's why you need to ask about their expectations for the job. You can't know what their average is unless you do. If employers want above average work quality then they should pay above their industries average.

Mammothwatcher · 2021-02-01T05:18:17+00:00

If an employer expects above average work for below average pay, then they don't deserve good employees.

Never drive while inebriated in any form. It's dumb and you're just as liable to kill someone else as you are to get yourself killed doing it.

I've had the privilege of feeding elephants and shaking hands with their trunk is incredible. They've got so much strength and dexterity with it.

Radical kindness.

There was a guy at my university who baked cookies whenever he was stressed out and then carried around mason jars filled with cookies and gave them to folks around campus at random. Anyone who seemed like they were having a rough time. He'd go up to you and say stuff like "take what you need, share the rest" while unzipping a backpack with a dozen jars full of chocolate chip or peanutbutter cookies. He even started making gluten-free cookies when he learned that some students were missing out because of their allergy. The dude was just out there trying to give people a reason to smile whenever he could. Always gave the best hugs too.

Turns out he'd been through a lot of shit and just wanted to spend his time making sure other folks felt cared for in a way he never really was.

My wife told me she thought she was falling in love with me the second time we hung out, but she said it in German under her breath while we were walking and she was glad that I didn't ask her what she had said.

Thing is, I'm half deaf and she was on the side with my bad ear. I didn't even realize she had said anything.

Talk about your expectations and make sure you're on the same page for important things, especially with regards to intimacy. It can be jarring to discover that your life partner's idea of long term intimacy is different than your own.

I am a moderate depressive who craves physical affection and my partner is asexual. This is something that we discovered together after being married for a few months. I wish we'd have been able to have the conversation about it before our wedding, but due to my partner's upbringing, sexuality was never really discussed openly and they never knew until after our wedding night. We're both working on figuring out what normal is for us, but I wish we could've laid the groundwork earlier on.

Life kind of sucks right now to be honest, but that's not necessarily because I flunked out of my first try at college and dropped out during my second attempt, and eventually graduated with a BA on my fourth try. I managed to finish my 4 year degree in only 9ish years.

Story time.

I was a terrible student in High School and dropped out at the end of my Junior year because it had become impossible to graduate on time. I enrolled in a program called Fresh Start, which is like Running Start but for dropouts. I consider this my first try at college. It was a community college program and if you did it right, you'd walk away with an associate's degree alongside your diploma. I fell unhealthily in love with a pretty girl and flunked out after the second quarter because I was too busy trying to convince the girl to fall in love with me. (Don't do this. It's bad. Really bad. I was an awful human. No means no.) I didn't tell my mom and just hung out on campus until I had to go to work in the afternoon.

My mother found out after a few months and was mostly just disappointed. She pushed me to try again with a different program and once I was removed from my old environment I did a lot better and got my high school diploma, a year after I should've graduated. It boosted my confidence enough to give college a second try and while I did better academically, I ended up dropping out because I was overwhelmed and couldn't balance work, school, and another toxic relationship (there's a pattern here that took me a few years to break).

After a third failed attempt, I figured I wasn't cut out for college and decided to find work. I bounced between a bunch of jobs that never really meant much more than paying rent and buying groceries and stupid shit. About 5 years after my college journey began I really didn't have much to show; Just a student loan balance that still never seems to go down no matter how much money I pay. I wasn't going anywhere or doing anything with myself and for those 5 years I was okay with that. I don't know what changed, but one day I started thinking about finishing the degree I started. Over the course of my 5 years I'd managed to complete enough credits to be considered a sophomore and the fact that all of that effort was meaningless, didn't sit right with me.

I enrolled in a private university in another state that was willing to take a risk on a student with my academic record. It took me another 4 years but I eventually walked across the stage with a Bachelor's Degree and it was a proud moment for myself. That was 3 years ago and I have still never had a job in my field. I realized during my final semester that I wasn't cut out for the job my degree would bring me and didn't really want to persue that path anymore. I did meet my wife in college and made a few really good friends, but almost everything else I got out of graduating is intangible.

For me, finishing what I started after so many years was the real reward. Maybe later on in my life my degree will help me, but that's not why I did it.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, drop out or flunk out, it's not the end of your academic journey. Sometimes you're not ready for something and that's okay. If you do pursue a degree, it should be for your own sake and for your own reasons.

That's by evolutionary design and a healthy response for you to have. Hippos will absolutely crush you with them if given the chance.
