@niki that's how a lot of people feel, many don't have confidence in their parents at all. They want what is best for you but often they want what THEY THINK is best for you, so it can be hard to approach them with something especially if you think it's going to go against what they want, fearing punishment and stuff. In my experience but enough parents play an active role in their child's development which leads to this weird detachment.

I hope whatever you're having a problem with is smoothed out! :) I kind of suck at giving advice but I can be a good listener if you ever want to talk :)

I saw a billboard today that said "most covid deaths are from people who aren't vaccinated. Please get vaccinated."

The fact they have to say "most" is really sad lol, it's still not conclusive enough to say that getting vaxxed actually even helps you enough for them to put legitimate statistics up there.

@Spaghettimon @sandy good to hear you're doing well now. Being treated poorly by a parent or someone close to you is much worse than someone you don't know doing the same. People are shitty but experiencing that is the best way to not be a shitty person, unfortunately.

@pasture i only feel tired the next day if I get a healthy amount of sleep

@PraxisOfEvil if you want to see real privilege, look no further than liberal protesters.

@coyote @Loki @hideki reminds me of my friend who went to a coding bootcamp and immediately tried to get a programming job at a bunch of big places who would only hire him as an IT guy. Either you take that, or you try and find some smaller place that might not pay you as much but you'll be doing a lot more and gain much more industry experience. He did neither and got disheartened, went to work security instead. It's all about humble beginnings and finding what you can get, and working your way up from there. Too many people expect to just have the American Dream served to them on a silver platter because they "took all the right steps" but a lot of that stuff is just a scam now.

@MechaSilvio @sjw $250 is robbery, I've never lived somewhere it was more than $50/pet.

@zero reminds me of mofuckin Chad Warden

@coyote @hideki @Loki best way to do it imo is to find a good niche. I've mentioned before but I play music at a lot of food truck events and have pretty much become "the food truck music guy" so I'm playing 3-4 times a week 3 hours a day and making way more money than people who just try to get shows at local venues or restaurants where there is a LOT of competition and a lot of people on the schedule. So they get to play a show a week max and only end up taking home like $50 at the end of the night. They're playing places where nobody knows who they are except their friends and family and expecting to get a bunch of people coming there and paying money specifically to see them. I'm over here playing where people definitely don't know who I am but they get to choose if they pay me or not and most end up doing so, and a bunch end up asking me to play private events and stuff. I'm not getting to super levels of stardom with a record deal or anything but even then I'm probably making more money than an indie artist with a label attached to them, or even a touring totally independent artist ESPECIALLY with the cost of gas atm.

Just find the niche. Do what you love to do at a spot that makes sense where not a lot of people are capitalizing. OR go to an art school and socialize heavily with everyone you can while you're there, because you can get some pretty good ins with these professors who are already pretty savvy with the industry. That requires a lot of time, money, AND bullshit though, rather than just time.

@tengumatingpress simple, nobody knew they were depressed.

@xianc78 @allison @chjara In that case just set up launchbox or even better, use steam rom manager and hook them all up to steam so you can use steam's controller api too if you really need to change things on the fly.
