@northernnarwhal hi ty
-
@yodelerty I bought Pokemon Alpha Sapphire today, started with Treecko but haven't made a lot of progress.
-
@northernnarwhal Treecko is aight. Where are you in the game?
-
@northernnarwhal alpha sapphire hype!
-
@yodelerty I own the original Sapphire and Treecko was the starter I first chose in that, so nostalgia and all that jazz. Plus Mega Sceptile is pretty cool.
-
@northernnarwhal True. Way better than Mega Swampert.
-
@yodelerty Oh, and I'm at the 1st gym.
-
@yodelerty Mega Swampert pretty silly, those bis are MASSIVE.
-
@northernnarwhal Not bad. I didn't make it to the 1st gym until the second day I owned it.
-
@nickonarwhal Totally man, I'm not too far in but I'm getting lots of nostalgia

@yodelerty I was playing it one the bus for a bit and I was playing it a bit right now. Taking a break to get ready for tomorrow though.
-
@northernnarwhal maybe a good idea. School and stuff I guess
-
@yodelerty Yeah, school :/ Though I will end up missing some school for my grandpa's funeral later this week, but I also have to prepare this big digital slideshow for it.
-
@northernnarwhal A slideshow for the funeral?
-
@yodelerty Basically a bunch of old photos looped to some music, it'll play during the casket service in the funeral home before the day of the funeral itself.
-
@northernnarwhal That sounds incredibly depressing to put together.
-
@yodelerty Someone has to do it and it looks like that someone is me
-
@northernnarwhal Yeah. Sorry man. :/
-
@yodelerty It's fine, it just means it's gonna take up a bunch of my time
-
@northernnarwhal I guess. Hopefully you don't have a ton else to do
-
@yodelerty I'd like to hope not but I'm likely going to have a lot of large assignments due this week :(
-
@northernnarwhal lame man. :C School is dumb and so is life
-
@yodelerty I agree with the former, mixed feelings about the latter
-
@northernnarwhal eh. might just be me then. apologies
-
@yodelerty It's okay, life as a holistic subject is a very broad and complex conversation piece, having differing views on it is only natural
-
@northernnarwhal I suppose you're right. Idk
-
@yodelerty I could be, but I can't tell for sure, and I am fully aware of this. To paraphrase the famous paradox of Socrates: scio me nihil scire ("I know that I know nothing")
-
@northernnarwhal you seem to know a lot honestly but maybe i'm not really smart enough to discuss philosophy
-
@yodelerty It's just a topic I'm personally interested in. I was boring everyone in the Skype call yesterday with some rantings and ravings on contemporary existentialism.
-
@northernnarwhal that doesn't sound boring but i could see why others might disagree
-
@yodelerty Yeah, and I guess you could apply that principle to any field really, not just philosophy. If you're interested in something it'll be exciting for you and vice versa with whatever you find uninteresting.
-
@northernnarwhal I guess. Not really sure what being interested in something really feels like but you're probably right
-
@yodelerty I'm sorry to hear about that. I guess I take for granted that I'm very lucky I've been able to find things like art, music, and philosophy that I really love and am passionate about.
-
@northernnarwhal It's no problem. I'm glad you've found stuff you really enjoy.
-
@yodelerty I'd like to think everyone has something like that, they just need to find it
-
@northernnarwhal Maybe most people. Some people might just be doomed to die without ever discovering what they love. Or maybe they just figured out they don't really love anything at all because they're boring and lame.
-
@yodelerty Maybe that's not the case, and they only got into that mindset because they haven't discovered what they love yet and have decidedly given up hope.
-
@northernnarwhal Perhaps they're in that mindset because everyone they know already has something they're passionate about despite being younger than them and they've realized that there's probably nothing out there for them if they haven't found anything they like yet.
-
@yodelerty We sadly don't all find ourselves at the same time, and maybe's it's not my place to say but the world is certainly more cruel to some of us than others. What else can we do but persevere?
-
@northernnarwhal Not much point in persevering if there's no chance of finding oneself anyway. If they're too stupid to figure anything out. And they just waste their day crying and sleeping.
-
@yodelerty I can only offer my thoughts and ideas, but I can't force you to do anything. Just know that no matter what you think, you deserve better.
-
@northernnarwhal I don't deserve anything but a slow painful death. At an old age so I can be useless for a depressingly long amount of time with no drive to even end my life. That's probably my destiny.
-
@yodelerty In all honesty with that attitude it will be.
-
@northernnarwhal Not like it's possible to change my attitude anyway. I've tried.
-
@yodelerty As I said before, I can say all this stuff to you but what you do with it is up to you. I only want to help.
-
@northernnarwhal I'm sorry. I have trouble accepting help because I don't believe I deserve it. Sorry. I'm sorry. Sigh. Sorry.
-
@yodelerty The problem is that you do deserve but won't allow yourself to think that
-
@northernnarwhal Because it doesn't make sense..
-
@yodelerty Sure it does, you're a human being who's struggling. That's deserving of help in my books.
-
@northernnarwhal Meh.. I'm just a whiny baby.
-
@yodelerty Doesn't change what I'm telling you.
-
@northernnarwhal Maybe. I dunno..
-
@yodelerty Well I'm off to bed now, so I'll let you sleep on it. You're a good person, Dane, and I only hope that one day you'll see that too.
-
@northernnarwhal Good night, Ty.
