my mistake. I thought they'd said "Tomato Tomato" but now I understand I misread it and it's "Tomato Tomato". I ought to be more careful.

uh, you got them backwards, it sounds all weird that way. I think you meant "Tomato Tomato"

man, that was such a bummer. when they got along well, they had such amazing chemistry. People change. sometimes it's good, sometimes it sucks.

every year of high school I and the rest of my class ('08) had was the same curriculum repeatedly.

history: ww2 bulletpoints, same as last year. write a paper about how bad the nazis were but how complex the situation was, actually, so don't be so judgemental.
lit: baseball?? books and writing exercises about baseball.
math: algebra 1 over and over. I once got sent to the office for a disciplinary discussion for asking if we'll ever hit algebra 2.
PE: no, none whatsoever.
art: watch whatever movies, free form ungraded discussion aka nobody does shit.
science: watch vaguely sciencey documentaries and write a paper about an animal's behavior and habits.
electives: none, a myth we heard whispers of amongst older friend siblings.
foreign language: Spanish 1, every year.

i left right before my senior year and started working. I've never been sure if that was the right call or not but my friends that graduated are borderline illiterate to this day and completely math averse for sure. so I don't think another year of ww2 baseball algebra would have helped me much more.

not sure why you're getting downvoted for this, I had the same experience with my education in the US. high school class of 08, lol. the school never taught a math class past algebra 1. if you finished it, you still needed math credits per year, so they'd just have you retake the same class. seriously. absolutely abysmal. 95% of the math I do now is self taught. from my "education" alone, we never got much past solving basic linear single-variable equations. most of my class graduated barely literate. really, most of my class simply left, myself included - the dropout rate was astonishingly high around 08, and instead of doing the same classes and curriculum for the third time in my senior year, I opted to simply leave, educate myself, and shortly thereafter start my business.

idk, helldivers going from insanely popular to universally reviled is gonna hurt future deals with Sony. why would any indie or medium sized dev risk doing business with Sony when Sony will randomly push the "destroy game and profitability and reputation" button? this will decrease the number of people willing to publish titles through Sony. "oh you went with Sony? you must want to kill your game lmao"
