Go forth with my blessing

Get or work towards a job that gives you meaning and joy, unless you have something else in your life that already does that. Keep track of your finances and set goals for how much you want to spend/save monthly. Keep track of how much you spend on groceries, junk food, things you need and don't need. Not saying don't buy things you don't need, just be aware of how much you're spending on fun stuff and keep it in check. Keep an eye on differences in prices between grocery stores as some stores have much higher prices for the same product and brand, at least here in Canada. As much as you may be craving independence, stay with your parents for a few years if that's an option for you, even if it means a longer commute. The money you'll save on rent is huge. If you're living on your own, cook for yourself from scratch! It's a great skill to have, it's much healthier, and it saves you money. Learn basic sewing skills so you can repair your clothes, like if a button falls off or the lining of your jacket is torn. Have fun and explore, but in moderation. Don't waste the next 10 years doing nothing, thinking you can get started in your 30s. Same goes for relationships in my opinion. Oh and read what @ Element_ wrote.

I heard! Thank you! I was on a couple days ago to check it out. Awesome news

I barely ever play anymore but when I do, I want to be able to spend my savings. I don't want to have to do runs. I can see the appeal in having everyone start at the same level again but I think it'd do more harm than good.

At the risk of having my head bitten off, in my experience the taxi system can be a source of excellent roleplay scenarios, and also a fun way to help new players when they get stuck somewhere or when they need help finding their way around. And yes, there's plenty of potential for people to exploit it, either by robbing the taxi drivers or the customers. But even that at least provides more opportunities for people to interact in this game, which I think is good. When you send a taxi request, you never quite know which way it's gonna go, and whether you'll even get a response, and when you receive a request, you never quite know what kind of people you're going to be serving. And that's terrific fun.

Only got there at the very end just before the explosions ruined it, but it looked great! Well done to all involved

I feel like someone with dual citizenship voting in an election of a country I haven't been in for quite some time. Anyway, option 3 gets my vote

we have it in october fish on christmas eve (we celebrate it on the 24th). Carp or trout, or if you're fancy, salmon

do you mean on sandwiches, or whole turkeys and whole hams? Either way, ham. Turkey's too dry. By the way it's weird that you guys have thanksgiving in november.
