Before I give an update on my state of rapture, were we all supposed to be yeeted at the same time or is it going by timezones?

This feels like a response to the feedback that most attendees found the activations happening around GDC more beneficial than the conference itself. It's also likely a required pivot (to some degree) due to the way the event paywalled so many developers out of being able to attend for years.

Been job hunting lately and it's killing me how roles are now 3-in-1. Community Manager AKA social media manager, video editor, graphic artist, marketing specialist, copywriter, voice actor and streamer. They expect you to have 5+ years experience, yet you're only getting entry level pay. 😭

It's so funny that I can remember things from kindergarten still. Like how I had a pretend band with two friends and we called ourselves the Kitty Kat Rumble Band.
But if you asked me what I ate the last three days? 😂 I got nothin'!

Took a little bit of a break from social media to refocus on myself. Unfortunately I have joined the ranks of unemployment after being laid off @ Discord earlier this month. It's been a lot to sort through, ngl, but I'm proud of the work I did there, so I don't have many regrets. Which is good!

Got the itch to play games this weekend, but now I'm not sure WHAT to play. Veilguard? Sims? League? Marvel Rivals?? Supervive? I still haven't checked out the Fields of Mistria update either.

2025 is looking like it's gonna be a wild year - in the best ways! Working on activations at GDC, DreamCon and MagWest to provide resources and opportunities for Black game developers - both new talent and veterans.
But FIRST? Taking some time off to unwind and rest. I need to wash off 2024. 😂🙏

Been checking out #Supervive lately and plan to play it for a while. I'm experimenting with different characters, but Elluna is definitely my favorite so far. I know I'm locked in when I buy a skin, but how was I supposed to resist??

4 day weekend was just enough time for me to ruin any semblance of a normal sleep pattern. I've been pulling all-nighters to game, going to bed at 5am like a gremlin. The consequences will be dire come Monday morning. 😩
