I once tried to explain instant messaging to an older woman but she didn’t get the difference to email because she’d regularly use them to instantly chat with her son. That was two or three decades ago. While in theory emails can take days to be delivered the reality is that for a human it is “instant”.
My wife burst into tears when she realised that my chronically ill ass hasn’t been able to play in months. I couldn’t even finish a quick and small one shot that turned into a two shot. I even crafted my character to be mostly silent and layed back.
I guess the rational is that a breakup would lead to worse job performance.
Don’t know if it’s in the video, but as far as I remember it was about how working hours were calculated and about worker surveillance. And Walmart trying to control worker’s private lifes by forbidding sexual relationships between workers.
I’m reminded of the time Walmart tried to enter Germany with their work culture. But in their case it wasn’t just that the Germans didn’t like it. It was illegal. And the German customers were weirded out by Walmart employees smiling and being so cheerful all the time.
After our first TPK our DM had us play a oneshot that was in reality a mirrored and repainted version of the map we died on. We made death saving throws in the beginning and had to fight the guy that killed us. Around him were dead or knocked out people of strange races we didn’t know. We were from kind of an evil cult so we could have opted to kill them. Luckily we opted to take them prisoner, along with their pet. Our characters were one thing but if our pet owlbear were dead!
Next session the dead made new characters and rescued the survivors from the cult.
When Covid hit my wife was super afraid of Long Covid but I thought that shit wouldn’t get it. Now I’ve been living in my bed for two years because I’m too weak for much else. Yeah, changed my mind about that one.
