…eh I guess

Italian Renaissance maybe? I can paint pretty good

“Is this the reason why I was put in this desolate place? To find that happiness isn’t a place or thing, but a person?”

It’s something I read a few weeks ago. For me it’s the people I love that keep me clinging to life. Making sure they’re alright and taken cared for.

I was part of a free company in FFXIV that had a wonderful group of people. Very welcoming and incredibly fun to talk to. They were actually where I got a lot of ideas for my writing. They were an openly gay group and I’m not gay but I didn’t care, they were still fun to be around. But, when I joined the discord server, that’s when I found out how ‘open’ they really were. Channels about meeting each other, posting dick pics, wow. I read a whole comment thread about one of the guild members meeting with the leader for some fun irl.

Not quite as dramatic but certainly surprised me.

Op thinks we can afford a house by 30 if we go to college.

Well in game Leon is the type to do that so it makes sense. Best to find out then to let it be

You had me at Leon. Go get him! Be his Ada

Interesting, let’s hear your best joke then

Didn’t say it was for me

Is it Shakira - Whenever, wherever?

Healing. Can you imagine how happy the world would be? Parents with a sick child can take them to the park for the first time. Bed ridden people can see the world with their own eyes as opposed to a screen. Despair and grief would change to happiness and serenity. I’d be crazy busy but if it means that everyone everywhere is guaranteed to live a long, happy life, I’d gladly pay the price.

For me, it was highschool. I had a great group of friends, almost everyday my cousins and friends would be visiting. Some days I had 4-6 people all visiting me. Mom and dad were happy and healthy. I didn’t need money so I didn’t care I was broke. I was in love with a beautiful person who I still think about.

Now, in my 20s, I stay in my one bedroom apartment that costs more than my paycheque and I haven’t seen a human face in almost a week.

I wrote an entire book. The manuscript still needs some editing but for the first time, I’ve never been closer to having a published book

My body realized that I can’t afford as much food anymore so it adapted

2d art commissions, videos, 3d sculpts, and 2d animation mainly

Both my 4080 and cintiq tablet. Together they cost me over $4k but it was definately worth it. Besides gaming on them, they netted me a lot of freelancing jobs so I earned more than what I spent on them by far.

Under $40k a year. But, it’s just me and it’s enough to cover food and rent and sometimes allows me to eat out once in a while but not enough to do anything else. So, I definately don’t feel rich.

Nope, haven’t felt relaxed for a long time
