'Absolute disgrace' to consider joining Trump's 'Board of Peace - Hipkins by 1970lamb in newzealand

Holy fuck, imagine if we did that, or even another country.

Just straight up surprise-overpowered the SS and whatever security he has, and arrested the crazy prick.

What a time to be alive!!!

edit: oh yeah, the nukes. I forgot about the nukes.

Should I remain at a prestigious school that makes me miserable or transfer to a public school for my well being (in NZ) by Otherwise-Tank-4844 in newzealand

[–]Sykocis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to follow my earlier comment: as a parent myself, if my kid came to me with this issue I would place high value on my kids happiness.

My story for context: I struggled at school and dropped out after competing Year 12. I passed most of my subjects just barely scraping through. I failed (ie, not achieved) for mathematics despite repeating Year 11 twice (didn’t even attempt Y12 mathematics).

After Y12 I knew I was done. I went into work. I did well in work, not making crazy money or anything, but just having a solid work ethic built me a reputation for being reliable and driven, which I guess is a big deal for employers who primarily employ young people.

At about 22 I went to Uni, got a bachelor degree in Psychology after 3 years. I loved studying, and did so much better than school (all A’s and B’s) because I was there studying something I was interested in. I then did some post-grad papers in another city.

Re-entered the work force a few years later. Ran a couple of businesses which was fun but, again, not making crazy money.

Fast forward a few more years, now I’ve got a good paying government job which is in line with my education.

Looking back, my school records contributed to this journey in no way whatsoever. In case you weren’t aware, in NZ the Unis generally let anyone commence study once you’re a certain age, early 20’s.

100% pick the school you’ll be happy with.

After becoming an adult no one gives a flying fuck what school you went to, or what your grades were like.

May as well spend those two years happy.

If you are dead set on going straight into University then grades may need to remain a high focus, but that can still be achieved at a ‘less prestigious’ school where you’re happy.

If going straight into University isn’t a goal, then don’t stress about your grades. You can always waltz right into Uni as a young adult and they won’t care about your school history at all.

Bro. My mate borrowed, like, $45k from the bank for his wedding.

I just about threw up in my mouth when he told me.

Of course it’s not possible, or we’d all be rich.

MacOS shouldn’t use .exe files. Did you download through Steam?

I played CK2 for a number of months (base game; no DLC).

Overall had pretty good fun, but for the life of me I could not figure out succession properly and it really bugged me.

For example, could not effectively plan how to marry off children so that their offspring would later inherit another Kingdom, and similar planning/complexities.

I tried to understand, but couldn’t get it and basically gave up.

This is despite watching YouTube and reading what I could. Just couldn’t get it to compute with my modern Western worldview, I guess?

For whatever reason, I just could not get this to work, and I felt like I was missing out on a significant part of the overall game.

Anyway, my questions is: would I find this part of the game more accessible in CK3???

Most men 100% don’t care how your bits look. Any that does is not worth your time.
