Are you sure it isn't a custom designed one? It took 15 seconds to mock up basically the same thing here: https://xboxdesignlab.xbox.com/en-ca/configure/xbox-wireless-controller

Even the text is in the same place by default so I think this was just someone's custom order

I never played grounded, could you elaborate?

We missed you too dude. Sorry you're not winning at life right now but hopefully this is just an intermission before you get back to crushing it. We're rooting for you :)

Fuck clapping back in a country with that high a level of access to guns and that little mental health access. Anyone could have a gun and I'm not playing that game. I'm not usually too confrontation adverse but I'd change my name to Mat (First name Floor) before arguing with a weirdly aggressive American.

Yep. Lots of "Plot" to appreciate here

Sounds like the government's intent is working. Can't fault that.

I feel like I need a translator for this comment

Just wanted to say I always enjoy a good game tale, thank you for the content :)

How's the game? My tolerance for anime tropes is decently low so I'm not sure it's for me but I'm curious

Dude, it's in the username.

I just wanted something to show for my time at the end of lockdown. The first month of lockdown was a lovely staycation, but by month two I was ready to do something. People were picking up hobbies and getting I to exercise and whatnow, but I wanted a significant accomplishment, I wanted to get my life together. I was still living at home (24 but couldn't afford my own place) with my mother, I'd struggled with school before, never being much of an academic success.

But it wasn't lost on me that for the first and basically only time in my life I could go to school, get paid while doing so (Say what you will, CERB was huge for peace of mind), and I could be utterly ironclad I wasn't missing out on anything while working on my classes. I felt I couldn't waste the opportunity. I guess something about the change in circumstances worked because i did better than ever before grades wise.

I always think about this when people say Universal Basic Income wouldn't work, because people are naturally driven to do things and want better for themselves. We had only a glimmer of it, but it was enough to transform my life forever.

Anyways, ramble over. I'm glad my story could help brighten your day :)
