Well, if you're like me and have access to plexiglass, you could just be wearing an encased spoon instead.

>encased spoons

War has changed.

So a shipment of games I ordered arrived today, alongside a couple I Kickstarted a year or so ago. They now eagerly await being stuffed on the shelf and never played

Nah Wiz i completely feel you man. Most days i just sit on active topics and refresh until a new post comes up. Dunno what your sitch is like with family and stuff but maybe the answer is a fresh start somewhere else? Grab a bigass pile of student debt like everyone else and get a semi worthless degree?

Also if you wanna pleh some games sometime add me on steam, just look up Wyzack. Unless we are already steam friends, cant quite remember

Went to a tournament this weekend and came away with a couple prizes.

Doing the math, I made roughly $40/hour playing in the event.

This Friday I'm dropping almost $300 on buying half-a-case of sealed booster boxes for the same game.
This is what being an (ir)responsible adult is like.

Had my first weigh-in at Weight Watchers today. Down 6 pounds in a week. I know it's probably just due to my body being shocked by the change, but imagine if that keeps up the whole 14 weeks.

Well, I'd be dead, because I think my BONES weigh more than 150 pounds, but I'd look good doing it!

Play Netrunner on Jinteki.net

It's a good game and will make you more smarterer.
Alternatively I keep funneling people into the digg Shadowrun community @ Runnerhub.

My whole life is Cyberpunk bullshit.

Fuck I just got a warning from Comcast about how they got a P2P copyright infringement alert for something I torrented.

Something I torrented like three weeks ago.

They didn't provide any information yet but oh my God I'm freaking out.

Come on man you gotta bounce your connection from at least 20 different servers, so that The Man can't trace you as fast. Then you gotta delete access logs off your first bounce.

Hopefully you won't need the money for many, many years to come, but it's not a bad idea to have it put aside already. Funerals are expensive and she doesn't want to burden you with those costs.

I've got a new clean date. November 2nd. Relapsed on the first after my dog passed away just three days away from celebrating 11 months sober. I'm just glad my girlfriend didn't leave meour relapse herself because of me and I was able to get right back on my feet instead of going on a bender for months. I'm taking it more seriously this time though. Got a sponsor and I'm going to be starting step work next month. Also going to a meeting every day for the next 90 days.

Unfortunately my girlfriend made it clear we're not having sex until I'm at least 60 days clean fug.

Better than life or funeral insurance where you lose by living and for funeral insurance especially you could end up paying double what the funeral costs.

It is basically the worst sort of rigged deal basically since unexpected sudden death is extremely rare so it is just a straight house wins gamble using life expectancy statistics.

Hmm, well then. My boss said he'd probably be okay with me working from home. Which means I can finally get out of this rust-belt hellhole!

on LinkedIn I've been contacted by a recruiter working for a company called Ericsson, and asked to send my resume to apply for a position on the Operations team

I'm currently trying to decide if this is some kind of elaborate phishing attempt, but Ericsson really exists, and it's a major international IT company currently in a partnership with Cisco so I'll allow myself to be moderately excited

im no cybersecurity expert but as long as your resume doesn't have anything like credit card info or some shit it couldnt hurt to try i guess? (famous last words)

well I'm not sure if I should do this, I'm still in the middle of getting my MSc degree and I was about to start on my thesis

on the other hand, if this opportunity turns out to be real it could launch my career
