Feels like an empty gesture. People who aren't nice already won't care?

Thank you for your thorough response. That's true while on the job they are not running around and while I'm off the job I'm stressing. That helps put things into perspective some. Thanks for sharing.

Eh if you play aram or bots it's not too toxic. If you play ranked SR right now you're asking for it.
Sure you still get the occasional racist or toxic player in ARAM (~1/20 games maybe) but you just mute them, report them, then smile when you get the confirmation that the player you reported has been banned/muted.
Ranked SR is just cancer but that's all year round.

You are welcome. And I hope I don’t come across as too cynical, because making an impact and feeling like your job is meaningful is a really lucky and wonderful thing! It’s just about finding a balance and reminding yourself that your health should always come first.

In normals you get a much wider range, plus your mmr is decided after a few games

Basmati cooks best when done like pasta. Jasmine and the like are best done the rice cooker way

Sometimes I believe strongly in the impact I make and can make at work but I believe it's good to understand the truth that we are all pretty much replaceable. It relieves some pressure I feel. It may sound cold and cynical that they don't care but I think there is some truth in that. It helps relieve some guilt. Thank you for sharing.

Lol. Get good… at life. It isn’t your world to set the rules. If I pay my money (not mom’s) to play a game. I’ll be as bad as I fucking want.

Unfortunately I don't think the serial offenders really give a crap, if anything seeing something like this would make them want to do it more.

That means your battery was shit or dead.
Virtually zero mechanical shop is going to have any effect on a newer battery.

I've been coming back to Overwatch and I find myself having a lot more patience, surprisingly, it's really easy to just defuse that shit

Everyone who is good at a game had to start out being bad. Maybe just don't be a dick because someone isn't as good as you.

I thought about this while playing Escape from Tarkov. Tarkov devs must hold resentment towards those of us without families, because for holidays they purposely make the game worse lol. For Christmas they removed all loot. Essentially everything was an empty christmas present. For halloween, each match you started with random afflictions, and weapon malfunctions went thru the roof.
