The thing is, his desperation is entirely of his own making. He was offered enough money and support to get by with no problems in the first episode, but turned it down because he was too proud. He put his family through everything in the show entirely because of his pride, all while saying he was doing it for them. I'd argue he was a bad person from day one.
I see this rhetoric a lot and I really dislike it and find it actively harmful to people with ADHD.
ADHD, at least mine, would absolutely still be a mental illness outside of modern society. My doesn't care if I'm remembering where I put down my phone or where I put down my sandwich, I still misplace them either way. At work being without my medication makes it difficult to keep track of my responsibilities. At home it makes it difficult to keep track of doing laundry, washing dishes, cleaning the house. You don't suddenly lose all responsibilities and idle tasks without a modern society, your responsibilities and tasks just become different. And my ADHD couldn't give two shits what those responsibilities and idle tasks are, I'm going to struggle with them either way without medication.
Dismissing ADHD as not a mental illness but a symptom of modern society is not only incorrect at it's most basic level, it also implies that people like me could be "normal" IF "x, y, or z" conditions were met. That idea is just blatantly untrue and just perpetuates the dismissive and uncompromising stance that many people take towards individuals with ADHD.
Did he though? The entire premise of the show is that he really isn't a good person and all his problems are self inflicted due to his arrogance and pride. I really think he deserved exactly what happened to him.
I don't have a computer nice enough to play games, so I'm going to have to wait for it to come out on console again anyway.
Lmao you're out of your mind. There's no big conspiracy of the food industry making cooking look harder than it is. I got really into home cooking from watching all those cooking shows and YouTubers and then trying the recipes out myself. Virtually every cooking content creator out there makes content because they want to share the love of cooking, not scare people away from it. Channels like Binging With Babish, You Suck At Cooking, Alton Brown, J. Kenji Lopez Alt, etc are all fantastic resources for people who want to learn to cook.
You sound like you've already closed your mind to the discussion, but in case you're actually still willing to healthily engage in the discussion here is a really good video about why calling people who utilize AI in their work "hacks and grifters" is a very narrow minded (and often factually incorrect) way of looking at AI utilization.
Did you read my comment at all? There are a lot of reasons beyond "capitalist efficiency" that a 2 or 3 day work week is impractical in a medical field. I even brought up a major one that you conveniently ignored.
I'm not at all trying to say that there aren't problems with work culture, especially in medicine. I'm simply pointing out that the claim "no one ever needs to work more the 2 or 3 days without capitalism" falls apart when you start looking at jobs outside of pencil pusher desk jobs.
It's really interesting for me coming into threads like this. The vast majority of people that I see discussing these things seem to have office jobs consising of largely arbitrary objectives and deadlines. And for these people it would almost certainly be true that society could get by with minimal change if they only worked 2 or 3 days a week. It's an interesting perspective to me because I work in a veterinary medicine where (just the same as with human medicine) long weeks and long hours are practically a necessity. Very, very rarely do I find myself doing anything that is an unnecessary task, something that could be done later, or something that could be automated. While it would technically be possible to just hire more people and rotate shifts through the hospital to allow shorter work days for everyone, cutting days decreases the consistency of care (i.e. increases the number times a patient is transferred between doctors) which dramatically increases the chances for medical errors. Plus that doesn't even take into account that there is a dramatic hiring shortage so good luck ever finding enough people to make that work in the first place.
While I agree that a lot of people work jobs that have more hours than things to do during them, I notice all the time in these threads people claiming that "no one ever needs to work more than a handful of days a week" while not acknowledging that a lot of jobs exist where that just isn't possible.
I love how that article had plenty of other explanations for why a person might wear out their heel counter, but you jumped straight to him having deformed feet lol.
What the fuck does this even mean?
Definitely not, I played GoW 2018 first. I loved it so much that I went back and played every other previous GoW before GoW Ragnarok came out. The others are very different (but still very fun) games, and it definitely makes you appreciate Kratos' story better, but they are by no means essential.
