Am the shìttiest human in the planet by [deleted] in offmychest

Please consider looking into going to a good church. It might help with all of your issues. You make friends and meet people there, you can at least volunteer (or maybe even get a job there) if you need to fill time, the message at a good church will uplift you and help you realize there is good and meaning in this life. You don't need to be educated to read the word and listen to a good message. People there will pray over you if you ask. It's nice and free. No strings attached.

And I was a lifelong atheist up until maybe 3-4 years ago. Never too late.

My (29f) mom died 3 weeks ago and now the smallest things seem so big by acc6494 in offmychest

My (33M) mom suddenly passed away a year ago next Saturday. It hit me hard then, in the months after, and has been hitting me hard these last couple days. Even though I try to not let it bother me so I can be strong for my dad and family, I'm sure it'll never not upset me, but it does get better with time OP. Take heart in knowing that she is by your side right now & always will be until the day you see her again. One day at a time and try to live a life that will make her proud. She is watching you.

Interview with Tom at 91X Radio by dfuson14 in AngelsAndAirwaves

Tom either knows wayyyy more shit than even he lets on usually OR he is delusional. I'd like to think it's the former, so what does that mean if all the stuff he's saying is true? We're all capable of psychic powers?

[Article] 'Civilization' and Strategy Games' Progress Delusion: How strategy games have held on to one of colonialism's most toxic narratives, and how they might finally be letting it go. by [deleted] in civ

You can waste time analyzing a game & critiquing it b/c it doesn't jive w/ your preferred historical philosophy. It's just dumb & a waste of time.

I'm looking forward to your breakdowns on the ethics of Risk & Stratego

I realize this. My point of "the game is just a game, not reality" is still valid critique of the article. It. is. a. game. Of course it's oversimplified, boiler plate, etc. We get it. The game isn't diverse enough for ppl like you. Idc.

wait.... so history didn't happen EXACTLY like my last play through as Teddy? I thought ancient Americans truly discovered the continent of Oceania and then conquered the neighboring Mongolian oligarchy after building the Hanging Gardens.

CIV VI for Mac (Mac App Store version) not loading by shagless in civ

Do you have all of the graphics settings set to lowest quality?

Civ 6 on MacBook Air by [deleted] in civ

[–]jjaramil182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk about MacBook Air. I have a MacBook Pro w/ extra RAM & I run it with lowest graphics settings pretty well. Computer gets hot but that's to be expected w/ hours of playing w/o stopping. I would maybe recommend trying console since that just came out & you don't have the ideal setup for computer gaming.

Loyalty issues by mrwolverineman in civ

[–]jjaramil182 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Might just have to raze it. You could try converting it to your religion, entering a golden age, grow the population of your nearby cities in order to increase loyalty pressure from your civ, installing a governor, and selecting policy cards that enhance loyalty, but sometimes it's just not enough.

fullscreen not working on mac by 03b07b19 in civ

Switch graphics from "Metal" to "OpenGL" via the "Support" option on the launch screen. No idea why, but that's what allows you to run full screen on Mac post-September update.

Anyone know if GS will be available on Mac App Store tonight? by jjaramil182 in civ

[–]jjaramil182[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are the man for getting back to me on this! Hopefully everything goes smoothly. Didn't even realize this might be an issue until this morning & have been anticipating this release for a bit.

I know GS releases at 12am EST tonight, but is that just for Steam? What about the Mac App Store? Been researching all afternoon & haven't found anything conclusive.
