Fair, I just used an obvious example.

Behaviorally, yes there’s the typical bullying, occasional fights, social cliques, nice people, “nice” people, and the anime club that learned a little too much from the romance dramas. Big parties and dances where less of a thing in real life, sure they do happen, but it was never a significant event across the school.

I guess overall movies are accurate, but still exaggerated; way too much homework, there are crazy science teachers and evil history teachers and teens not having all their screws tightened yet is a real thing.

Well as far as accuracy goes, not really, or heavily exaggerated.

For example; Most American schools don’t have an “outside area” where all the students seem to hang out.

We had play grounds in the early grades, but that’s about it.

Charge whoever pushed this “telematic update” for reckless endangerment or something.

They’re lucky there were no accidents related to this (as far as we know).

Plenty I’m sure, but its not as news worthy.

And part of its the social circle they are in. They work with other actors/actresses and their social circle is going to be limited due to the time/travel requirements of the job.

Not sure how long its been around, but you can learn about the dangers of Dihydrogen Monoxide here:

Solomon’s Keep and Solomon’s Boneyard.

Keep is a traditional dungeon crawler and Boneyard is an endless wave survival game.

Better to catch them with a robot kid than with real ones.

It’s big reminder of the dark times we live in. We’ve become insensitive to the school shootings, they have been weighing less and less on “societies collective mind” since Sandy Hook. They’re covered for a day, and vanish from the mind.

This time it was a person most of us knew of and have formed an opinion about. Weather you liked him or not, there is an emotional connection there.

The stark difference in how people are reacting is chilling. Honestly, its difficult to accept a group cheering on his death to an extreme degree. Making a meme is whatever, but the videos and comments are filled such hate that it is unsettling to witness.

At the end of the day, he was a dude exercising his free speech. His words may be misguided, but he had his opinions and was willing to debate them with people.

“Dad I want to grow my hair out long”

“No, men must have short hair. Long hair is the sign of the devil”

“But all these pictures of Jesus have long hair”

“go to your room!!!”

“You’re still flat? I told you if you can’t get 3D, we’re done!”

Keep it positive and about your goals, and explain why the company you’re applying to can fulfill your goals. Focus on the future while sprinkling in something positive about what you did at the past job.

"While there I accomplished X, however the position did not meet my career goal of Y. I’m looking to join your team as an Z here continue developing my skills in Y.

Here’s an example; you’re goal is to be park ranger. Last park only had you doing trash pick up. The park your applying for does all kinds of community engagement/event type stuff.

“While there I had a fulfilling job keeping the parks clean, however the position was not leading me towards my goal to become a park ranger. I’m looking to join your team as a junior ranger to continue developing my skills for community events and continuing my work of preserving the environment.”

Fluff it up a bit to not sound scripted and you’ll be fine.

Do you like smoked salmon? The precooked stuff, you can eat it cold, is good with eggs. Can’t go wrong with some fresh vegetables (on side or on sandwich) too, tomatos, cucumbers, peppers, carrots or anything.

Perhaps not a course, but a lot of trades require similar types of “improvised” problem solving using only the resources available to you.

It seems like, from the very limited info you have provided, you’re looking to be a problem solver with no problem. Go make or fix something, even it just out cardboard, tape and chewing gums.

A lot of inventiveness and resourcefulness comes from repeatedly solving problems and applying the cumulative experience gained each time.

Also remember characters like Violet or MacGyver are in fictional worlds. Their surrounding, problems, and “quick” thinking has all been carefully thought out over time by the author. If the character needs some duct tape, guess what’s going to be conveniently on a shelf nearby.

I wouldn’t call it a get out of jail, but it is evidence for a jury to look at it.

I would much rather read news stories about police stopping these things, but here we are.

I agree, in principle vigilantism isn’t good for society. It opens the door for, let’s say heavily misguided, people to carry out whatever justice they want. Yes, it is also dangerous for the individuals with good intentions.

However, if the “proper” system does nothing, who will?

In the case of Roblox, I’m going to compare this to a public park;

In this park some adults set up a free candy van for kids. The park rangers/owners (moderators) see this, and choose to ignore it. Some other people at the park report their concerns to the rangers, yet a week later they find 3 more vans have shown up.

Finally, one person steps up and calls the police directly. The police can do nothing with the information, as there’s “no evidence”. Desperate to stop them, the person disguises them self as a child (don’t ask) to get the evidence. Police show up and apprehend the perpetrators.

The rangers are now angry that the person called the cops to their park, and bans that person from the park for “pretending to be a kid”.

If Roblox is unwilling to participate in the justice system set by society, they have no place in it.

As for schelps making YT videos, I say keep doing it. Not only does is help spread awareness to issues like this, it documents the “vigilante” actions. Society can decide from there what to do with that information.

They wanted to silence him because he was slowly brining attention to the problems. Luckily, that backfired on them, and the message got to everyone.

I hope whatever executive in charge of the “moderation department” and everyone else up the chain is arrested for this shit either. Nothing will ever change if people can hide behind a business name and face zero consequences.

That’s why I recommend a 12x12x1 block of stainless steel.

It has a proper dark mode now. Also there’s different icon themes, I like the Breezy theme. Makes it look early 2010s
