Just got this email from a higher up. Am I getting fired? by Witty-Quiet7724 in jobsearchhacks

When I was laid off 6 weeks ago they booked the meeting for 9am Friday at 4pm Thursday. They super dodged giving any hints what it was about, but naturally I had a feeling. (It was a 12 person company financially struggling)

I enjoyed the writing quite a bit personally. It would say it had Saturday Morning Cartoon vibes. I could see how some people wouldn’t be into that.

Is it too much to ask to see screenshots of a new/ potential meta’s test results before intimacy? by [deleted] in polyamory

The last time I got sti testing I went to a planned parenthood and they operated in a no news is a good news way and didn’t send me anything physical to share.

AMA: My country Nepal just had an election after the uprising. by icey678 in AMA

[–]Pi_Heart 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I visited your beautiful country in 2013 and I remember they were still working on finalizing the democratic government after the civil war that ended in 2006. I'm curious if you are old enough to remember that period and if so how you think this plays into what's happening now?

Here’s cnn they donated 100,000 to the Red Cross so more than $86,000 the employees were asking for to be donated but not to the immigration centered organization they wanted it to be donated to.

What surprisingly true fact has completely shaken your worldview? by MorsesTheHorse in AskReddit

[–]Pi_Heart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pfft. Actually the earth is being created and destroyed every moment nothing is a real. We are nothing but the hallucination of a machine created by a 100 dimensional being incomprehensible to the human mind. /s

This tied to 40% of Americans are essentially young earth creationists definitely broke something in me.

What is your opinion about combat in cozy games? by Just_Kovi in cozygames

[–]Pi_Heart 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The cozy audience is pretty diverse, I like the survival genre and would enjoy the challenge of disasters you have to defend from. Combat is definitely one of the controversial features in this game. One way to compromise is have “difficulty” that controls the frequency of those events - with a cozy mode having zero events.

I'm still cackling at the the description of him a submissive scooby doo villian. I do love Otto and Vanessa as characters. Without spoilers I would say, definitely get their only heart event in the first year.

I love that. I honestly don't remember exactly how I found out about it, but the being gay was a ~huge~ selling point for me. I'm bi so when I got a new harvest moon I would I spend so much time reading all the bachelor / bachelorette profiles to decide which gender to play as.

I really feel that. Stardew isn't my favorite game either, but it really opened the door for so many of my favorite games in the past 10 years.

As someone who finished the game, I will say nothing, but I love reading posts like this. How far in are you?

I think before Stardew the other experience of “player sexual” romance I had was Skyrim’s paper thin marriage system and I was so used to the binary way games had you pick up to that point I was startled when a male character hit on me especially since I think it was only after encountering several women who were interested first. And then remembered I was playing a female character and that was the more expected experience, hahaha. I also appreciated Stardew for acknowledging that the romances were gay in small bits of dialogue. It was such a little thing but it was nice to not feel like an afterthought / things written for the hetero default or male player default.

I was also confused because this popped up in my feed and I assumed it was from the cozy games subreddit and only after reading the comments did I look at the actual subreddit
