  • Yes. I studied and have a degree in animation. I wanted to work in animation, specifically as a story board and background artist. However, I’m talentless. I attempted graphic design work, but my first gig was with Lisa Frank, and that didn’t go well. I searched for more design work and I could only find work in customer service. After a year of portfolio work, applications, etc., I had to accept I just don’t have talent and I wasted my money. My goal was to avoid my current job because all I heard growing up was how awful it was. I studied hard, graduated with honors and everything. Still a talentless dumbass who now works in insurance. I will likely stay in this career (insurance) until I die.





  • My friend wants to play games with me last weekend, but I completely forgot. It’s something she wanted to do for her birthday since we’re states apart and our schedules are weird. She said she’s fine, but I can tell I disappointed her by missing such a simple request and I feel absolutely terrible.

    However, it was a wake up call. I’ve been very lethargic and tired, but I just kind of ignored it, but it’s now affecting my friendship, so I’m going to try to make some changes to help with my energy. I don’t want to disappoint her again if I can help it.












  • Super expensive, low quality cameras and mics, a janky looking chat, an okay screen, and having to buy games, some of which are years old (Looking at you BOTW), for more than their original buying prices. It’s just greed. It’s always greed. They saw PS and Xbox selling at already crazy prices and just tried to put the switch 2 in there like it’s worth a car payment, or even up to a month’s rent if you want the system, a few games, and a working camera (since the cheaper one is only 480p). And they’re just coming out and saying they’ll be monitoring your screen and chats (which I think more companies do than we think). And they’ll brick your machine if they see any mods or emulations. Want to add a fun mod to Mario party? Get bricked, bitch.

    If S2 looks appealing, I would highly recommend looking into the steam deck. I don’t even have the steam deck and this whole promotion cycle has me eyeing it hard which how awful they’re making the S2 launch.
