A lot of us “do the bare minimum” do the bare minimum because of all of the time in the past we spent going the extra mile only to be rewarded with ever greater expectations for identical compensation and opportunity.
that seems excessive…
it turns out, due to the prevalence of grass allergies, letting them get too long releases a lot of pollen and makes it a “noxious weed” (legally, in at least one town)
if you just kill off the grass and let something else grow, it’s totally fine…
The story about a man stuck in a cave that gave me nightmares forever, after watching the video, this new story can’t hurt me anymore: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnI_oZKxzl0
Watch it, the way the story is told is great, a classic! 10/10 nightmares, will watch again!
For any cave dweller who haven’t seen it, here’s Hbomberguy talking about the history of this video and it’s plagiarism, as @Mago alluded to. piped.video/watch?v=yDp3cB5fHXQ&t=5071 (if the timecode doesn’t work, it’s arond the 1:24~25 mark.
I feel like I would probably spend much of my time contributing to existing open source code or try making games if I did not have to work for a living. I do like what I am doing but when it becomes the only thing I am doing, its not so great.
Hey, a fellow space station player in the wild! Please God don’t let the station clown get this, he already tied me up in the library so I have to watch his nonsense.
I’ve played like 60 games and barely have any idea wtf is going on, good luck lmao
My advice is to pick something relatively low impact like janitor or bartender if it’s available and just try and hang out and see what happens. Or just be an assistant but people tend to ignore you or grief you if you’re assistant. Some of the more complex roles, if you’re interested in trying them, such as engineering or botany, are greatly benefited by figuring out how to host a private server to log on to and practice outside of a real game. Medical, at least as of a couple years ago when I last played, is pretty formulaic and as long as you know what operation you need to perform and have the supplies to do it, you can just follow a wiki page recipe.
Don’t trust sec, don’t trust the clown, if anyone outside of your departnent is being exceptionally nice to you they’re probably going to stuff your corpse in a locker 20 minutes from now if you don’t help them kidnap HoP. Learn to be robust. Rules (both social, and actual game rules and code) will differ, sometimes greatly, depending what server you’re currently on, but reading the Goonstation wiki should give you approximate knowledge of most things.
If you roll antagonist, God be with you, and know that we’ve all royally bungled many an antag objective, most especially when new. Just try to have as much fun as you can, the points don’t matter anyway.
