    Took a hit professionally to move states and get out of and escape a few years of bad employers. Now I have a part-time job where I feel overqualified but it’s essentially the same price for me to be a stay-at-home dad most of the time with my new baby. So, I really hope that when she’s 5, I can have some semblance of challenge and purpose outside of fatherhood again. I am a video director so some sense of creating art for fun again would be nice, too.

    As always the right lottery numbers, so far I never got it right but it is what I hope to achieve in the next 5 years

      Preferably somewhere with fewer people, preferably in a village or even in a forest far from civilization, or will you arm yourself to the teeth and defend your fortress from from marauders and others?

        I’m not sure. I think I would like to be more self sufficient at a minimum. Gardening, hunting, fishing.

        But to answer your question, probably. And hope it doesn’t come to that.

          Still, firearms are a good idea in a pinch, although crossbows can also be used to hunt animals and eliminate opponents.

    Get shit back on track I guess. On the one hand I shouldn’t have much to complain. I own an apartment, have enough money to get by and buy myself something nice every now and then. But mentally and physically I’m a bit of a trainwreck at the moment. Burnt out and unsure what I really want from all of this. I kept going on too long in a state that provided me everything I wanted on paper, but somehow caused a lot of trouble in practice. Ignored my hobbies for so long that I don’t really know how to start with them again. I need my younger spirit back. The one that just did things because it sounded fun without overthinking or focusing on the end result. But I feel like corporate life has poisoned me to think in results and plan everything in advance.

    I’m an aspiring Vtuber focused right now on narrating for one of three YouTube channels I’m associated with (that being Cocules Reddit Readings), but I want to expand on that in the future once I get myself out there with proper connections.

    I do this, however, using Linux and FOSS. My producer does his channels the exact same way.
