A story told to me from an ex-director at a AAA studio well known for crunch: one time after staying in the studio several nights in a row during a death march, he took the train to go home and just...forgot where he lived. He called his gf and she thought he was cheating on her and making shit up.

As a way of separating myself from enshittified apps and services, it feels like leaving social media is the only reasonable step.

lately when i’m feeling hopeless i just think of the Katamari cat wearing scuba gear. if she can survive in an inhospitable environment then so can i

Realized that after applying for some positions, I started self-censuring myself. I dont post a lot because there are people who can express thought more precisely and shitposty then i am, but this feels so wrong. I am queer, horny and lefty, fuck everything, that prevents me from being that.
