His title as "master" was a formality - he didn't get it because he was better than you, and "padawan" does not mean you are lesser. There is no hierarchy. He was learning to teach at the same speed that you learnt to learn. You built each other up, an unstoppable force for good in the galaxy. But then an evil wizard stole your heart and twisted your mind. Have no fear, fear is the path to the dark side. Your mother knows this well, for it is a common lesson among all people as they age. Fear not, hate not, and feel fury more than rage. You can bring the universe into a bright golden age, never forget your purpose and your [potential / duty] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────┘ --- #9 fediverse_boost/6099 --- ◀─╔═══════════════════════════════[BOOST]═════════════════════════════════───────╗ ║ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ ║ ║ │ External post: https://hachyderm.io/users/marianoguerra/statuses/115366899548181326 │ ║ ║ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ║ ╠─────────┐ ┌───────────╣ ║ similar │ chronological │ different ║ ╚═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╧───────╝─▶ --- #10 fediverse_boost/3376 --- ◀─╔══════════════════════[BOOST]═══════════════════════──────────────────────────╗ ║ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ ║ ║ │ External post: https://tech.lgbt/users/gabrilend/statuses/111843564814825762 │ ║ ║ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ║ ╠─────────┐ ┌───────────╣ ║ similar │ chronological │ different ║ ╚═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────┴───────╝─▶ --- #11 fediverse/1028 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────── there's this really fun video game I like to play called "Legion TD 2" - it's based on a Warcraft3 mod. In this game, you make tactical and strategic decisions on a fixed term - a competitive game between 4 or 8 players with an incredible array of randomness. it teaches you to work with what you got, and to make decisions based on your opponent's weaknesses. Good luck figuring out what they are, though, as you can't just memorize them out of a book. You need to adapt, in the moment, to the decisions of your foes, while primarily focusing your attention on accomplishing a different task. I really like it because it's taught me to be strategic in plenty of other ways. I used to love the game Overwatch because it required adaptibility. The game was always changing, so no strategy stuck forever, but every match you'd play against a slightly different opponent. but then Blizzard changed the game because they wanted to make more money, and it got worse and worse at what I liked about it.
