Finally, at 38, I was able to buy my own home.
I play video games so infrequently nowadays that I avoid getting new games before I have "finished" a previous one. That said, I struggle to motivate myself to finish Metroid Prime 4.

Got Hyrule Warriors a day early. Managed to feed the Zelda nostalgia a bit since Tears.

I will never again sell a game on Itch.io. Apparently I'm one of who knows how many that they aren't paying out to. Haven't seen a dime from my sales.

Having written a 520-page rulebook, I now struggle with whether I should make a thorough index with "everything" or a more streamlined index with "only the most relevant things." I like the former, but it adds another 20 pages to the book.
Noticed that YouTube had flagged a comment on my latest video that was a very visceral and unhinged reaction to the fact that I had mentioned consulting people with disabilities when writing cybernetics for my game. Such a strange thing to be so angry about, but it seems I really ruined his day. Hah
Published an article on my website based on my previous video about exploring identity through roleplay.

My Evolution As a Roleplayer

Working on a deep-dive into solo-friendly TTRPGs and am looking for suggestions.
Why didn't life evolve on a planet with 36 hour days? There is so much I wish I had time for.
When looking back at my adult life, I can see a lot of patterns of apathy despite being fairly high functioning. I have a career, friends, family, am highly productive when it comes to personal passions, but failed at taking care of myself or my space. Once I started to look, I assumed dystymia.
I've wanted to improve and diversify my cooking, so the last couple of weeks I've been randomizing recipes. It's a fun challenge and it keeps me from being lazy and making things easy.
