OKAY SO. *GRABS YOUR SHOULDERS* ELEVATOR HITCH FANDOM!!
WITH NOWORKER GETTING POPULAR, AS A MULTISHIPPER I'M ELATED! THIS IS SUPER COOL AND I LOVE TO SEE THE FANDOM GET CREATIVE. BUT ALSO AS A MULTISHIPPER, IT'S MY DUTY TO REMIND YOU ALL OF THE OTHER SHIP YOU DON'T REMEMBER...AND NO, IT'S NOT COTAG!
It's Notag. Normal Guy x Protag.
I feel like the two have such an interesting dynamic and a potential for some great development we never saw in-game; given that Normal Guy only appears at the end of the game, it gives the opportunity for lots of creative post-game writing, from world building to extra character development. With the nervous guy with religious trauma & the dubiously human, dubiously monster, chipper man with angel allegories. It holds such a cool concept; the chipper normal guy, who's whole life is dedicated to his work and is implied to be created in the sole drive of such, with an eye on the nervous Protagonist who does not want to be here and desire autonomy, who's life is dedicated to LIVING. Just...living. He chose this job to live, because he needs it. He doesn't want to lose control and doesn't submit as easily as others, or grovel under his heel, and it fascinates the strange entity known as a "Normal Guy". Protagonist just barely managed to fly under the radar and dodge the bullet that was losing his identity, and Normal Guy was interested in it. Of course, there is no place for a life or feelings in work! It must be dedicated to his company, so some adjustments have to be made-- though, not as harshly as he had to somr other unruly employees-- it's almost like he's observing a specific rat in a lab experiment for it's unique behavior. He likes this specific rat. Protagonist amuses Normal Guy--perhaps this CEO doesnt care a lot, though he does indeed care sometimes; although, besides how valuable they are to the company, the only individual he finds fascinating regardless of Level is Protagonist. Protagonist hates Normal Guy and is just scared of him, yet braves his gaze every day at work--every last day. Yet, again, the man is intriguing to him--what even IS he? He's intimidating to him. He's constantly confused by Normal Guy, from how offhand his way of thinking is to all the weird things he says--"Are Your Lungs Working Alright?". To the typically logical Protagonist, he just wants to figure out this monster before said monster figures him out. But he doesn't want to care about Normal Guy. He'd rather die again than see his face again.
Protagonist sees Normal Guy as some weird monster trying to control his life, and Normal Guy sees Protagonist as a new, strange, and interesting addition to the rat race.
And to see their interactions evolve would be so cool, man. There's so much potential.
THAT'S IT I'M DONE *rips my hands off your shoulders*

The insanity of a 9-5 and why its hurting us and what to do about it
Don’t get me wrong Theres nothing inherently wrong with a 9-5 as most hustlers might tell you online and having that stability can actually be really great. Especially if your a person who has struggled with stability and income their entire lives but I find that there are a couple things that disturb me about the traditional 9-5 that are very outdated and can do more harm than good. I feel more…

Last night I dreamed that my ex proposed, and the thing that made me the happiest was knowing that I was about to become part of a dual income household.
