TIL you can play multiple Steam games at the same time and get trading cards for each one.
So much farming will commence.
Ok, what are those cards for, exactly? Do they actually do anything, or just guilt me into playing more?

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

A buddy of mine is a PhD candidate in Anthropology, and he's doing his dissertation on Gaming Culture, and the relationship between rule and law, storytelling and imagination, and how that fits into modern society. Here's hoping his Kickstarter does well enough to make it happen, as it sounds like it could be pretty neat!

Huh, I'm actually about to write an essay on D&D. Nothing quite this grandiose, but it's interesting.

My most recent paycheck makes me want to quote a certain meme. Let's just say that it is over a number with a nine somewhere in it and call it a day :D

$9.35 isn't very much. You should really consider asking for a raise.

Oh. you didn't mean it that way? Well $1.04 is even worse.

Vegeta would be off slightly. By like a whole 0.

If I've got my math right, you'd be making well over a 100k a year if your average pay check is even half that much. Congrats. Though of course some commission jobs can be a bit feast or famine sometimes...

I'm afraid your math is way, way off. That would be nice though :P

Wait, 900 dollars for how many weeks?

If it's 2, well that's more than part-time at minimum wage up here.

If it's 4 weeks, that's -under- part-time minimum wage...

It's complicated. You get paid per job, and only get credit for completing those jobs when you send in the signed paperwork. While you can get paid every week, you can also save your paperwork and send it all in at once for a much larger (but less frequent) paycheck. That's kinda what happened with this one; a little over a week's worth of jobs were sent in all at once.

You know my great aunt and I were watching a movie version of "Posessions", and she commented that an article she read had commented that Jane Austen had a very good understanding of game theory.

Though given that game theory is just the study of how people scheme to achieve things, and Jane Austen's books seem to mostly be about social intrigues, this should be hardly surprising.

I should probably read some Jane Austen books some time.
