  • I enjoy memes sometimes or whatever, but on steam I barely interact with community features other than occasional questions on the forums. I don’t feel like I’ve lost anything not interacting there.

    I think of memes as like internet smalltalk. It’s a way of saying you exist so other people can be like ‘I exist too!!’ which loosens things up for deeper and more interesting conversation. It’s not everyone’s thing, though.

    I don’t follow communities that are just for memes on here so I mostly look at my subscriptions when I’m not in the mood. I think you should just avoid what you don’t like and don’t worry about it.


  • The one I still feel guilt over was a time when i found out someone had left an animal trap loaded when they left for vacation. There was a live raccoon in it. I know I shouldn’t’ve carelessly opened it, but I should’ve done something. Even killing it would’ve been kinder. I carry that one with me, to remind me to act when I can. I’m still bad at it, but I try.

    The other day I told a customer I could smell gas in her apartment, and even though I feel like a dumbass because it wasn’t a leak (probably lingering smell from them moving an appliance and hitting it on and off by accident), I don’t regret mentioning it. Sometimes I just am going to be an obnoxious jackass about that stuff.
