If you saw me in SL this weekend just gone, you weren't having a waking fever dream, I really did log in for longer than 20 minutes on a whim! Wild times in 2024, clearly... Also hello.
Not me missing doing Blender lessons so bad I get everything set up and then remember I have no time to do them anymore. I have two braincells and one is for work and the other helps me remember to breathe in and out when my meds run out.
Drive by Cyclic here to say I'm so fuckin proud of myself. This year has been immense. I'm interviewed in PC Gamer UK (page 14, May 2023), doing so many cool projects, including working with Sony on things. I worked so fucking hard for this, it's finally paying off.
40C/103F here.
plays clown music
Here in Loughborough it got to 99F/37C today, and it's due to be 102F/40C tomorrow, this time two years ago I was in Bulgaria visiting Dad at the peak of summer heat and it was nowhere near this hot.
I finally did it - After a lot of hard graft, I am officially a professional games accessibility expert - I get paid to tell games studios how to set up accessibility teams, how they are failing disabled people, about intersectionality and about inclusive design practices.
I miss teaching. I don't have enough spoons for it anymore, but I miss it a lot
Work switched from Office to LibreOffice and I hate it. LibreOffice is wank, at least switch to GSuite ffs!
my ADHD tip of the day - have a box or container that you put your keys and stuff in when you arrive into the house. I use mine for my gloves and work knife/work keys as well. I no longer lose my keys. I put my daily makeup and cleanser in there too so I don't misplace it. Good stuff!
went for a warehouse supervisor position at work, got interview, looking good so far - I've successfully run the warehouse for two weeks now and nothing is on fire or dying.
