Yes, I believe that's a part of it. Just the act of formulating "this is a problem that I don't know how to solve, please help" sometimes starts some kind of problem solving of my own.
But another thing that "atheistic prayer" does for me is that if/when that thing happens, I'm more likely to notice it. And a problem dissolving by itself, or due to someone helping me, is something I really want to notice.
"There's just us". It's frightening. It's inspiring. Sometimes it's comforting.
Fascinating. I do too, in a way - I find it helps to think about what help I need, in a way that is quite prayer-like (I believe ). For me, it's a way of reminding myself that I don't have to fix everything myself, not even in my own life. Sometimes good things happen for no reason.
Surely, Baba Is You is horrible and awful! By which I mean very good. And either unreasonably hard or maybe I'm stupid. Avoid at all costs!
Thank you for your generous response. I'll follow your advice... I just wanted to say that it feels great that someone has taken this much interest in my Minecraft initiation!
It's metal, it's niches all the way down!

It's black metal with a strong medieval flavor, banjo (?) and a bunch of wood instruments, actual songs - and quite nice production as well. If you enjoy both black metal shrieking and some silliness, this is a gem.
Yeah. I approve of the idea of shooters where the intended audience is my 78 year old mum though
Making Money l think, or the Wee Free Men. So far.
I'm re-listening to the Malazan Book of the Fallen, the series that keeps on giving. It's been my between-books go to for the last ten years or so I realize
just finished the three of them! A pity we don't have spoiler tags because I'd like to go on about it for a bit. Suffice it to say, I had some feelings about some things. I also enjoyed some parts very much. Don't you agree?
80s!
