Applying to Grad School in Public Policy with low GPA and no research experience

Hey, I wasted my bachelor's years sulking in my room with depression, not talking to anyone. I tried and worked hard but didn't enjoy it much, I got passing grades and a sub 3.0 GPA as a result. Basically, my mental age was that of a 15 year old in my Bachelor's. I cared more about watching tennis than thinking about my education.

Over the years, I've taken a lot of work to recover and I realize that it's going to be extremely difficult to get into anything with my current profile. As you know, the labour market is disastrous, especially for recent grads. I wanted to apply to work in a relevant field to my masters study, but it seems like that isnt happening. It's a vicious cycle at this point. I need to get good field-related work experience to compensate for low GPA, but can't get into a relevant job, because I don't have a masters (which more and more people are having nowadays). Honestly, I felt like a had a pretty good plan, but I looked up all the unis I was interested in required a good GPA and a substantial amount of work experience. That makes me feel like shit quite honestly. Really would any help :)

Is the Blood & Bittersteel mod abandoned?

I saw some posts floating here and there about a modder's take on the 1st Blackfyre Rebellion in realistic late medieval aesthetics. I was so hyped for it, given that I love the late medieval era and ASOIAF, but I haven't heard anything from them. Anyone knows whats up?

Applying to MA in Public and International Affairs Question

Hey, I was interested in this masters since it seemed like a nice fit given I have a Bachelor's education at a top business school in Europe and speak French. Up until I got hit with this - "Applicants must have completed an honours undergraduate degree (or its equivalent) in the social sciences, arts, management, or law, with at least a 75% (B+) average (calculated in accordance with graduate studies guidelines)." Does this imply if I have just a normal non-honours bachelor's diploma in econ they will throw out my app instantly?

Wanted to find out if the stories of ICE detaining people based on social media posts, being denied entry based on political memes etc. have any bearing in reality. Let's just say I'm chronically online with some political leanings and of course sometimes I like something controversial. I feel like I would need to delete all my accounts so that I wouldn't get detained, if any of the things I hear are actually true. Would greatly appreciate any guidance.

Re-reading the series carefully this time. In the RW Catelyn chapter in ASOS, the poor quality of the food is made of note, especially considering this is meant to be a wedding involving the hosts's liege lord and a king. Knowing Walder Frey's cheap nature, he will never waste good food on 'dead men'. In the Davos chapter, his jailer refers to him as a dead man, but he gets the finest foods directly from Lord Wyman's kitchens. Symbolically, Lord Too-Fat-To-Sit-A-Horse gives some smuggler who is going to be beheaded his most meaningful thing in life, while Walder Frey denies them something so simple and insignificant (in the broad scheme of things) as food. Clearly a jab at the Freys from Wyman :)
