And it only just occurred to me NOW, at the age of 41, that I never asked.
Like... my entire childhood, at no point did I approach either of my parents and ask, politely, for a little bit of money, possibly in exchange for household chores. I literally never thought to do that.

What really stings is that I completely understand every design decision that was made. This is absolutely the type of game that I would have made, this is an idea I would have had.
So now I'm thinking about my own audience, and how many people I don't know I'm disappointing.

(I'm sure the qualities he uses to determine who actually *is* a shoplifter from five meters away are sensible and neutral and science-based and not at all based on... y'know... the things you can see from five meters away, like skin colour or style of dress.)

"Pod" means you keep a copy in your pod with you. As long as you survive, you'll have access to it!
"Gallery" means you nominate it for inclusion in the ship's archive, and, if 50.1% or more of humans agree with you, it's preserved there!
"Burn" means leave it behind on Earth.

Should've made'em smaller, some of the larger guys were still gooey in the middle. It was tasty for me, but I wouldn't have served them to another person. That's what happens when you improvise, I guess.

Trek as a person would be a lot like me, actually. Someone who just matter-of-factly proposes orgies and talks about the merits of different obscure sexualities, but, if you saw them at a Pride parade, you'd be like "how nice, someone brought their straight ally friend".

Facebook's hastily launched Twitter alternative that's basically Instagram crammed into a Twitter-esque format. It's SFW only, it prioritizes brands and influencers, and it's all algo-driven - there's literally no way to see posts from the people you follow in chronological order.
