What if I dont want to write this dissertation? Whatcha gunna even do?!
Just in a complainy mood on this cold, lightly snowy day.
ok but hear me out, improv "Is X a Sandwich"
but truly! the improv classes I took as a kid were some of *the best times* XD
As I'm working on creative projects and more professional stuff, I'm learning that I work best when I have ideas around me to work from. I think maybe I'm just better at remix than I am at coming up with ideas entirely on my own. I've always loved working in teams, and now I guess I know why.
i get a moment alone in the house and I'm like "what if I took a nap" XD
its a dangerous proposition as I'm liable to sleep until like 7pm and I have so much work to doooo lmao
Life got overwhelming today. I'll go touch grass on the way to work tomorrow. Get a coffee, go on a walk. Try to forage for some joy soomewhere. That should help some.
Hope folks are having a decent day today
Aaaand that’s a wrap! Thank you to everyone who came out for our Black History Month event! We raised $820 dollars for #SadGirlsClub and couldn’t have done it without our fantastic performers, GMs, techs, artist, and YOU! We are so grateful for your time, donations, love and support.
making just an epic fuckton of white chicken chili tonight lmao - it will be good for the couple of super cold days coming up I think

The curry I made is so spicy its painful.... how do I do this every time? Its either entirely lacking flavor or so spicy it murders. Imma have to ask some friends for a recipe because this is... its not working.
I'm a professional TTRPG designer. I've been on 20+ projects. There are seven rules I follow to make sure I'm creating the BEST possible product. And when I don't follow those rules well...mistakes are made!
Check out my latest video to learn the rules and learn from my mistakes

It's hard as hell to get any kind of work in the creative fields under normal circumstances, and it's even harder right now. If you work in a creative field and have any free time whatsoever, even 30 minutes of your day, I'm challenging you to take on an apprentice for one month, free of charge.
Hey, this Saturday we have four games for y'all!
Remember all month long we are raising money for the Lavendar Rights Project and appreciate your love and support.
Link to our tiltify and games for this Saturday below
This Saturday at 4 PM EST

In the 1800s, a slave owner purchased over a dozen people in Georgia and set the foundation for his family’s generational wealth
Generations later, a railroad company owned by one of his descendants is using eminent domain to seize land of Black farmers
I don't know if being aware of the rejection sensitivity is better or worse than just feeling kinda anxious for apparently no reason. Its the parts between awareness, understanding, and post-processing that suck the most. I get the process intellectually. Experientially...
Why are the kids at my gym tryna make us fight
