Can you elaborate om how you were "dumb in many ways" in your 20s?

[–] Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca 44 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Lots of PTSD from being sold for sex by my parents.

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 2 points 18 hours ago

This may be a controversial hot take but I don't think that's very good parenting.

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 41 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Ok so that took a turn in a direction I didn’t expect

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 days ago

Look, the sex license sold by the government was really expensive. How else were they going to give him a brother?

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Not OC but it's always retrospective. I am 38 and look back at my 20s and reflect on mistakes. Caring too much about how I was perceived, not caring enough about how I perceived myself. Not being honest with myself. Fortunately years and increased responsibility put into perspective the important versus the unimportant. I focus in things that make me happy, make my family happy. I focus less on doing things just because other people are doing them. I did a lot of stuff I didn't want to do in my 20s because of where I was at in life.

And hey, not everyone's dumb in their 20s. And if you're in your 20s, there's no point in reflecting on it. You are where you are, you do what you do, your life will end up wherever it ends up.

Nah. We decide everyday who we are, with every choice we make. Procrastination is a choice, as is healthy food. We don't "end up" somewhere out of the blue, most of the time anyway. I can't decide to I become famous, or rich, or whatever. But I can decide to eat healthily, educate myself and do certain things. So I'm going to do that.

Wasted time playing WoW with catfish.

Maybe projecting there...

How'd you get them to activate abilities? I could see a set up where you train them to turn left or right in reaction to something on the screen. Install a mod to make the health bar take up 25% of the screen, and then activate heals based on them turning left, activate damage abilities when they turn right. Train them to turn left if the bar starts dropping, right if it rises.
