#2988: Maslow's Pyramid explain
[The scene is seen from far away with the characters dwarfed by a huge pyramid in the middle of the panel. To the left we see Cueball facing White Hat and Megan while he is pointing behind him to the giant pyramid. It has been segmented into five tiers of equal height. Each tier has a labeled written on the side facing out. The segment at the tip is so small that the text needs to be written on two lines. To the right of each segment there is either a red cross (four times) or a green check mark (level two from the bottom). Next to these marks there is a comment. From top to bottom the labels, marks and comments are:]
Self-actualization
X Honestly questioning my life choices here
Esteem
X People seem less impressed by it than I hoped
Belonging and love
X Friends are worried about me
Safety
✓ Highly defensible
Physiological needs
X Provides basic shelter but no food, water, heat, etc

I built Maslow’s pyramid thing, but it’s a total ripoff - it’s only providing 20% of my needs.
