you should buckaroo. it took an unfathomably infinite amount of variables to bring you to this exact moment over trillions and trillions of years you are the end result of mind bending cosmic rarity and you wield that radiant uniqueness through everything that you do

We're kind of new here so a fresh introduction is probably a good idea, right?

We are Limit Break, the largest mentorship program aimed at underrepresented people working in the UK games industry! Our goal is to help marginalised people progress their careers

your life is not an optimization problem - as in you'll never achieve the perfect daily routine, sleep schedule, coping mechanisms, mannerisms, fashion sense etc. even after years and years of healing and improvement and self-discovery. you will never be so good at life that you manage to utilize every waking moment. its great to be productive and all but sometimes you'll suck ass. sometimes you'll take eight hours to be done with a twenty minute job. you'll prioritize the wrong thing. you'll sleep for 12 hrs just to avoid being awake. you'll relapse. and you'll relapse again. you'll forget to turn in the assignment. you'll order too little food. life is far too large and complex for you to even experience it completely, much less try to make sense of and control it. you can't. please give up on that and be at peace with the hours you lose. they are not separate from your life.

Haven't enough blood sacrifices been made?

Are the shareholders not sated yet?

Who will make the games when all the devs are dead?

Happy Caturday from the snooziest little girl 💛

An illustration of a slightly beat-up looking white cat with huge, watery angry eyes. They have a couple of bandages on them, one placed over a pink heart marking on their chest, and are in a defensive pose. Around them it says “things are tough, but so are you.”

Miso the cat asleep on my lap, with incredibly graceful legs

She is beauty, she is grace

So bored of being off ill now that I’ve started having dreams about Confluence macros and Jira

On its own, the Game Awards blitzing through winners is bad, but with nearly 10K layoffs across the industry this year, it’s way more callous than ever for an awards show to be 3 hours of marketing and ego stroking

“The Lord of the Rings: The Felllowship of the Ring” playing on a TV

Being off ill means the full day just watching LotR 💖(extended editions only in this house 😌)

Ended up going for a wood elf monk, and then made her in #BaldursGate3 and she so pretty 💖

Making my first ever dnd character and I am ✨ mildly overwhelmed ✨ at the amount of choices

This is how I always read it! It should be the only way it's read 😂

😍 tyty!

Okay but where is this Christmas sale? 👀

The film Stardust on a TV

The perfect nostalgic Sunday afternoon ✨

The Steam install bar showing >1 year remaining on the install of 132GB

Me holding a pint of rosé and smiling

Won a bet against a friend and got a pint of rosé wine as my reward 😌

Pick a selfie from your gallery and turn it black and white

Lying on the floor in a puddle of tears, crying

Finally set up my turntable and speaker, so at last I can listen to the Folklore Long Pond studio sessions like this

Batman wearing a Santa hat. The hat has holes for the ears of his cowl to poke through.

Batman wearing two tiny Santa hats, each on the tip of one of the ears of his cowl.

If Batman was a Santa, would he wear his hat like this, or like this

One of my favourite things about having a cat is waking up to cat cuddles and her trying to pet my face

One of my least favourite things is her deciding 4am is an excellent time to do this

Order summary for Baldur’s Gate 3 - Deluxe Edition for Xbox

Continuing to make excellent financial decisions 🥹

Dinosaurs, consider yourselves avenged

Whaaat this is so cool! Definitely increases my need of a Steam Deck ✨

Grim Fandango Steam achievement "Make the angelitos cry"

I've been slowly playing through some older games that I've never played before with a friend and we're on Grim Fandango atm, and I feel like the worst person for this achievement from today :')

The cutest cat, sleeping and cuddling against my chest

Oh hey bsky ✌️ first post deserves a photo of sleeping Miso 🩵
