I don't know why I even bother when I can't help anyone.
Something is better than nothing.
A small push is often not significant, but sometimes, that small push is enough to keep people from falling.

It's something I'd rather not talk about.

Not that that phone number is in anyway accessible to me, but it's symbolic. I've been trying to... let's just say... turn things off. Myself, particularly.

I've been through this before. I should have been used to it by now. But I'm still... shaken that people can turn a total 180 on you at any moment's notice.

It's... horrible.

You wanted sympathy? I suppose I could impart some.

A local 7-Eleven store offered the ability to create your own concoctions with Slurpees. I put judicious amounts of Iced Tea on it, and happened on a particular branch where the Aircon was colder than a freezer, the Slurpee colder than a stony heart refrigerated for 2 hours in the freezer, and me having eaten Cheese.

It was also somewhat funny I intentionally picked up a cup of the least popular presidential candidate here in the Philippines (7-Eleven is running a marketing promo in which you get to choose your cup, consider it a choice of vote, and basically be a survey + capitalizing on the rather strong and aggressive political scene here), and not long after drinking three fourths of the biggest Slurpee Cup, I was having the gasses.

Then I went back in a friend's car, where there's like 3 other people with me in the back and I was having oh god the car's airconditioner was crap; it was the best environment for gaseous buildups.

I almost shat on that car. Fortunately, I managed to crawl over to another friend's house and manage to crap away a very rancid deuce.

I have no dice here, but have you tried removing the force multipliers?

Otherwise everything seems fine, but maybe you should include Use_Material_Template somewhere if the above doesn't work.

Posting your errorlog for the most recent playtest will help a LOT.

Been meaning to get this game, but it's a bit too expensive. I like how this can curb MTG costs for deck-building. Fuck real cards.

I cannot exact revenge; that would make me an ingrate, because they have done a lot.
I don't condone revenge, but this isn't true. Gratefulness isn't about letting a person's wrongdoings go just because they did you a good turn once. Abuse is abuse, no matter what has happened in the past, so act appropriately. One (but not the only) appropriate  course of action (in some places; I don't know where you live) would be to get authorities involved. Nobody should suffer as you already have, but there are systems in place to get out of the shithole you're in.

If you want to forgive them, do so because you want to, not because you feel obligated for the things they've done for you.
I agree.

Just because someone's been good to you in the past, doesn't mean you need to keep being nice to them if they turn into a raging asshat or start being abusive.

I'm probably going to be nitpicky, but they didn't simply do a good turn once, though going by other definitions of the term, I do get what you mean. But it's hard when they've been caring before, understanding my flaws and shit, and generally being the replacement father I never had.

And then... this happened. I do not want to dip into the recency effect. But everyone also wants me to apologize for something I didn't do, and I'm confused as fuck.

E: Giving up? Believe me, I already tried hanging myself twice. Didn't peter out well. Too scared. I just can't give up.

It sounds nice.

Been doing some inventory hacking, and surprise, Garon's Bolverk is not exclusive to his person!

So yes, you can have everyone wielding oversized axes with 1-3 range. Although that triggers a shadowban, too.

And yes, Infinite (Conquest Ch. 27) Entrap is awesome. It has infinite use, infinite range and almost perfect accuracy.

My smile twists into a form of morbid, plaintive fascination. My thoughts jumbled, between states of betrayal, of pity, and of revenge. "I have done nothing wrong," I rationalize. A mere financial boon, given to me as part of a reward by someone I no longer care about, was used against me. The devils must be laughing.

They once said, "Stow away whatever prize you gain, as that is indeed due to you, for them being the fuckers they are." So I did. But a mere call, and some information that god-knows-I-didn't-tell anyone come out, and I am left puzzled.

"How did they know so much? Who told them (a majority of which are lies) these statements? Why can't they ever disclose the name of someone when their own child is suffering from misplaced abuse from their own siblings?!"

I grope around for knowledge. I grope around for facts that they owe, but am incapable of piecing together. I do not have all the answers. I do not have all the reasons. I am in a panic. I get blamed anyway.

"You fucker! You traitor! You must have called them when you were going home after you were scolded for lackluster performance! I am separating ties with you! Get out of my sight, or else I will kill you on the spot!"

I am distraught. "I have done nothing. I have done nothing wrong. Why is everything being affixed to me."

"They already betrayed me once. They can do it again," they say.

The sheer doubt generated from the event, I am no longer sure whether I should still be alive, if I should just kill myself, or if I should make them pay for accusing me of something I didn't do. I am torn. I cannot exact revenge; that would make me an ingrate, because they have done a lot. But consider this: they have also readily and conveniently disposed of me at the earliest notice, at a mere thought of me possibly having back-stabbed them.

I am in a flux, in which I am torn, and reintegrated in a chaotic whole, at every single moment. I want to live, and want to die.

I was never deserving of any of these accusations.
