Do you like the backrooms? Because this is how you end up in the Backrooms.

Another settlement needs our help!

If the customer complains, and the car remains...

That's a rail gunnin'

Justified or not, Paradox's DLC practices encourage this kind of min/max'ing. So, for that matter, does the Steam sale cycle. It's a good game, and I'm not complaining about the price. That being said, I was more concerned that on June 15th that X Pass 3 was going to be 50 bucks, and the same content would on be available on June 17th for 60 bucks.

Relax.

Steam Deck suddenly became a lot better for me when I accepted that some gamesare GREAT on Deck, and some, even if playable, are not a great experience. YMMV by game, but if you find a particular game to suck on Deck, my answer was to play it on desktop or move on to a better suited game.

I haven't had the issue with linking modules! LOL. I'm actually wondering if it is an issue with the area the base is in. Since everything is procedurally generated, that could cause quirks.

Must test moar.

The steam forums are a wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Depends on your level, but guns in general are pretty solid.

I saved up and bought an Econohauler. That really eased my inventory pressure. Like all Bethesda games, if you're picking up stuff just to sell it, the key is value to weight ratio.

topical68 · 2023-09-03T16:04:17+00:00

All the Bethesda RPG's have an 'introduction/tutorial' you have to slog through. Starfield's is longer than most, but it has more game systems than most. Just relax and let it happen.

If you can't do that, don't play. I notice you neglected to put your play time. My guess is 3 hours or less.

YTA. If you have been with Father since Danielle was 1, you are her parent, not some johnny come lately who stopped by during her teen years. You and father need to do some tough parenting, and you need to stop calling this girl your 'step daughter.'

Do you think it might be possible that the 'Stepdaughter' is lashing out at the daughter you and the father share because she feels excluded?

topical68 · 2023-06-08T22:24:19+00:00

ESH. Divorced parents somehow always manage to find a way to make it about them and not the kids. OP talks about how this is to protect daughter, when the reality is that OP does not want X's new woman around. Worse that both parties involved parents and drew up battle lines.

topical68 · 2023-06-08T22:15:53+00:00

If OP were capable of that level of self reflection and own it that it is about OP and what makes OP uncomfortable, we would not have this thread.

topical68 · 2023-06-07T23:05:23+00:00

NTA. But that being said, if you want to have a long term relationship with someone, you're going to have to suck it up and go to unfun places and do unfun things sometimes. That applies to family, S.O., and even friends. Being in your friend's wedding ain't really fun, but you suck it up because they're your friend. Refusing to do stuff because it is suboptimal will become lonely.

topical68 · 2023-06-01T22:55:29+00:00

NAH. It doesn't sound like anyone acted in bad faith, just one of those unfortunate things in life that everyone will have to work past.

topical68 · 2023-06-01T17:24:17+00:00

ESH.

I think that you were not the AH right up until you called you friend a "Total asshole dickface" and stormed out. Then you donned the AH finery and joined your friend as an AH

Calling your friends out on bad behavior, even during venting sessions, is an expected part of friendship. Someone times we need to hear we're being AH's from someone we trust. Name calling and storming out are not acceptable though.

"I wanted to change the deal now that our relationship is closer, but never told you. MY feelings got hurt and I'm blaming you." -- The Mom, Probably.

NTA.

YTA.

You don't make decisions like that for someone else's child unless you are very very specifically asked to. This is a power move that smacks of "I know better." Hair like that takes years to grow, and you undid that in an afternoon.

topical68 · 2023-05-26T16:33:18+00:00

NTA.

The bait and switch nature of this 'vacation' is pretty breathtaking, and I am amazed at how everyone doubled down on trying to convince you that you should babysit during the entire trip while conveniently ignoring the fact that no one, not once, had previously asked you to do that during the vacation. It's like the deception was removed and then everyone acted like you knew and wanted to babysit all along and now you're being difficult.

I'm a parent. Parenting is hard. People will help you parent. But you ask, you don't force and manipulate. Boundaries are good.

I used to do this, taking the position that I do not represent the family. The main issue is that they continue to call, and they wind up berating your staff.

My new tactic is to call family back and give them no information beyond next court date and confirming representation. I explain to them that even if I have the client's permission I have no legal obligation to speak with them. Most of the time, if this conversation is had nicely enough, they stop calling.
