I specifically didn't have kids because of my own father.

Turned out later in life I regretted it and wished I had made more of an effort to have a child, I think I would have been an okay father. I learned from the worst how to not be the worst, I just had way too many demons to battle through adulthood before I felt remotely capable of raising another human and not breaking them also, so it's probably good that I didn't, but having nieces and nephews made me really wish I could have experienced that kind of love.

It's too late now, but I think about what alternate lives would have been like. I wonder if we get to experience every possible instance of our own lives.

I will only remember that your dad was a living trash human. Sorry

My dad is a dead trash human. I was kinda sad when he died, but life has been so much easier since.

I might just spam these comments, but, check out Vintage Story.

Exact same thing happened to me. Still salty and refuse to play it again

sold to Microsoft and they deleted my account

Yeah, there was a period where you had to join your Mojang account to a MS account, then they eventually shut down the Mojang auth entirely. If you didn't change over during that time you're SOL. It was announced it was coming over a year before they actually did it.

I go back and play Minecraft every now and then, usually heavily modded. Been playing through the Material Energy 5 modpack for the past little bit.

Same thing happened to me. Still pissed off

Dude we can differentiate between someone lying to us to deceive us or someone 'lying' to us to make us happy/help us. At least in retrospect.

Sure maybe the kid in this post can't trust his dad anymore. But he can 100% trust that his dad always wanted the best for him.

people who try to live 100% deception-free are deceiving themselves

it's more important to teach kids when to be truthful (when they're young, that's almost always) and when to be politely or justly deceptive (when the next door neighbor asks if you liked her cookies you say "yes" even if they sucked, and when a police officer asks if you've seen the kid in this photo you say "nah, I don't know him")

"mom lied about Santa!" eventually gives way to "I'm glad my mom created Christmas magic for me when I was a kid, so that I could enjoy child-like wonder and traditional holiday mythology"

In the early days of minecraft modding, it was a real pain in the ass. You had to extract the jar and replace class files directly and rejar it. Mod loaders didnt really exist at that time.
