  • Doing your hobby / passion as work is the natural response, but it is not quite right I discovered lately.

    A hobby is and needs to be undemanding and you really risk ruining the fun. instead of giving energy it takes energy.

    What is much much more important is your colleagues They make and break every job

    And if you want to choose careers, think about what type of person works there and the amount of communication

    These things are much more important than if the work itself is fun

    If you don’t want lots of intense communication and discussion about creative topics, don’t have a creative job. Like concept art or music. Have it as a hobby instead and do it for you.

    I just love talking about game mechanics and player experiences in games, so my job as game designer is perfect. When I was a coder, it was fun but I didn’t get to talk to people and it ruined my hobby to be honest, I very rarely code just for myself anymore because it feels like a chore.

    Also, being talented is a thing. If you are talented at something, probably try to use that. It’s a head start. If you really want to do something, you can learn it, but it is taxing and the energy can be used for more fun things if you think about it.

    In the end you cannot really know how any job is before you try. The added bonus is that you get to see how different work is socially. Even in pure solitary work this matters more than you think, how it will feel to go there every day. If you are treated like a human. If you are respected etc.






  • The most confusing about all these problems is

    Why you didn’t get taught to share when children in USA

    Like what part of society has failed when almost nobody understands that if we work together and help each other, we succeed? Like, kindergarten knowledge?

    What the actual, in the mother fucking fuck is bad about helping someone who hurt their leg or that was born with disability? Mind boggling shit honestly, you think you will feel better if you have more money but a worse shittier trustless cutthroat society? I really don’t understand this. You all want to benefit only 0.01% that has money, the rest must suffer because someday you might be that 0.01%? But even those that are that rich feel like shit because they live in a country wtihot care or protection or community? Like wtf is honestly wrong with so many spanning almost an entire continent, that they can’t share their billionaires profits but has to hide it in Panama?













  • Yeah I get that. It’s like, over researched.

    On exactly at what timing in your life x would generate y amount of mostaliga.

    Or, at the golden ratio of this scene we need a humorous pause and a quip.

    Or now this group needs a comic relief character that also represents the audience that identifies with Adhd symptoms.

    Or this movie can tie in to that one because this moment will generate most money.

    Then they “hire” directors and actors to play out this plan. They don’t have passion or what to tell a story, just follow a money making machine script

    On and on like that Until it’s not governed a single bit by passion, or trying to convey any message.

    Kind of like kids music, it’s attractive up to a certain point when you learn the tricks, then it’s hot garbage
