I’ve been busy with !loops@midwest.social since that’s been seeing a lot of activity. The queue is up to almost the end of February, posting every 30 minutes. If you think that’s too much, you should see how much I don’t post 😄
The dude abides, i suppose
Fucked.
I played a couple of single-player rounds of Steel Division 2 today. Fun, but kind of “solved” the single-player stuff at this point. Does make me wish that Eugen would keep working on the AI, sell it as DLC if one wants. In fairness, Steel Division 2 does have a lot more work on the single-player side than their earlier games.
Coming off a code sprint; about to release a small patch update and then take a much needed hiatus. Despite being February, it’s been decently warm outside, so have been planning to get a head start on some outdoor projects I want to get done this year ( and finish a couple that are leftover from last year, though knowing me, probably not in that order 😆).
Also trying to balance those projects with the looming threat of being unemployed. The org I work for is largely (though not entirely) funded by agencies this administration is currently gutting. So, that’s fun. I’ve been here 7 years and was planning to retire from here, but that’s looking less and less likely every day.
It’s been lame, ngl. Having issues at work, stressing out about the deluge of garbage happening politically, feeling totally out of control of my mental health and like I have no recourse to address the spin out (single, no friends, isolated antisocial weirdo, not even a therapist b/c no insurance and not wealthy enough to afford out of pocket).
I feel your pain but i cant even imagine being in your situation. Things are so crazy and you arent crazy for feeling stressed out. I still believe the heart of your nation is good even if the current administration does not reflect that. The good people will get back in control.
That’s the odd part: there’s a lotta really good people here, and I know it sounds odd, but a lot of what’s happening is BECAUSE of kind-hearted people… who nonetheless are simply so very, very dumb. :-P What manner of idiot would put us in charge of ourselves…? :-P
It’s gonna be an extremely wild ride before they wake up though:-(.
Yeah its good people who have been clearly mislead and poisoned by propaganda.
