Buying a GOOD computer chair. You don’t know the pain you’re causing yourself until you wake up with a sore lower back.

The company that lost my $3500 computer a month ago finally sent off a free replacement and it’ll be here next week! Normally, they replace it with a refurbished one but since they don’t have any, I’m getting a new one.

Fishing Vibes from Sonic Frontiers. Seeing Sirena Beach reminded of it

I don’t usually wtf to wtf videos but WTF?!

Running to the Sea - Royksopp. Now that I know it’s about some sort of terrorist attack, I just feel weird listening to it now

Brick Technology makes cool mechanisms out of Lego to solve some simple problems

Seeing Leela without lipstick makes her look different

My job title is Storyboard artist/3D Generalist but I haven’t really done any storyboards or 3D stuff for about a month. I’m more of a compositor now working for a small production studio. However, since it’s client work and the big boss has been off on a press tour, I haven’t really had anything to do for the past 2 weeks. I’d wake up around 10-11, lay in bed until maybe 12 or so. I’d get out of bed, go buy a coffee from McDonald’s, and then either watch tv or play my Xbox. Rinse and repeat unless something interesting happens that day. Sometimes I’d get a task from work which usually takes me about 1 to 2 hours to finish then I’d do nothing again. I basically do nothing all day and get paid for it. Sounds pretty awesome but I’m bored out of my mind.

Thank you all for the advice. I’ve made a decision and I’m going to be moving to the city. My dad is in relatively good health right now so I think we can manage. Again, thank you all. I really appreciate it

They’re working on it. I think maybe something may happen with it by the end of this month? And don’t worry, I know I’m burning myself to warm them. I’m trying to fix that a bit. No, it’s not me that’s the target. The condition is straining all of our emotions and things are just in general not as happy anymore.

Galaxy Z Fold 5. Before this I had a Z Flip 4. This Fold 5 is probably the best phone I’ve ever owned. The screen is amazing to watch stuff on, I make music sometimes on it, I played through all of Paper Mario on it, I use it to draw when I’m bored or waiting for someone.

Watership Down was what traumatized me on seeing blood in cartoons. Cartoons and blood just…dont mix.

I’ve been living with my parents for almost 2 years now after graduating from university. Now, I have a job that pays me just enough to live off of and I’ve been wanting to move back to the city where I lived for University. But, my situation is as follows that prevents me from doing so. My dad has a condition, one of the worst conditions you can get, you can probably guess what it is and please don’t say what it is because I don’t like the word. Because of this, my dad can no longer work, and my mom has been trying to find work so I’m taking care of things. And, because of this condition, home life isn’t as great as it used to be and my mental health has deteriorated to nearly nothing. I don’t know what to do and how to get everything back to normal. I’ve been looking for apartments but how can I leave in good consciousness knowing what I’m leaving? I’m stuck and I cannot move literally and figuratively.

It’s Will Smith

Having to pay for EVERYTHING! Want to not live outside? Gotta pay rent. Want water? Gotta pay the water company. Want to eat? Gotta buy food. Want to go somewhere? Got to pay for vehicle insurance.

I keep telling my friend that we’re heading to the Cyberpunk society without the cool cybernetics. Hell, Nestle tried to privatise water which FALLS FROM THE SKY.

Well, for someone like me who had no inkling of programming skill until I forced myself to learn, let me tell you it was HARD. Everything about my game was a learning process but I took that as a challenge to improve myself and make myself more adaptable for future projects.

To give you basically a rundown of how I’m making my game is I first started with an idea. I liked playing Paper Mario and Super Smash Bros so I decided on gameplay similar to those two. Then, I chose Unity based on a recommendation from a teacher. As I learned coding through YouTube tutorials and asking questions on forums, I started with a simple script to control a tic tac that runs around a quick map I made with primitive shapes. And from that initial prototype I added more and more things. Different mechanics, quests, etc. For art, I’m making most of it on my own since I’m an artist first thing but most I’m getting from free sites like turbo squid or the Unity Asset Store. Music and sounds I’m using temp stuff until I can get to making them.

For myself, even making a simple mechanic of controlling your cat to explore an environment is a game. Sure, it might not be GTA quality, but it’s still a game. From here you can make something more interesting. I always say that in order for something to look beautiful, first it has to look ugly. Even a beautiful butterfly has to start as a worm.

I’m on the cusp of the change between Gen Z and Millennial and I’m with you in this. When I graduated college and got my bachelor’s, I envisioned a life where I’d live in a big city, go do some interesting work, and in my off time I’d be able to finally afford to travel. Explore the world. Meet interesting people and do interesting things. But, I was quickly humbled.

I had to fight, I mean literally FIGHT for my current job for a year. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get one since I had no experience and no one wants a college graduate. Now that I have one, I sit about 6 to 7 hours a day in front of a computer. I’m having lower back problems and the lack of exercise is giving me gut problems. I can’t afford to live my own so I can forget about traveling. And, now, my contract is nearing its end so I might not even have a job soon.

This was the world we were handed and, now that I’ve experienced it, I’m looking forward to the day everything goes haywire and we start all over again.

I made one. Mainly to show people what I’m doing for my creative projects.

I don’t want to show anyone up

Well, from what I’ve been reading, apparently there’s some sort of 80 year contract that was made in 1947 that is supposed to expire. Either with aliens or something like that.
