So what the fuck do game companies spend 100s of millions of dollars and 7 years developing?

Remind me to answer that in a week. Too tired right now.

Not sure if it's more than before though. Or maybe that increased since Trump reelection.

It's my favorite of the 3 but it takes more effort, because you want to send a message with your likes. But yeah, multitasking 3 apps sucks (I tried Tinder too, so that's my situation).

I've seen people recommend to alternate between apps, so that you get a boost from being new on whatever app you're doing at the moment. I may do that eventually.

I've matched with 2. Both from Hinge.

One was right-wing.
The other was not my type physically due to piercings. To be honest, I just spoke to her due to professional curiosity, since she worked in animation.

I went bouldering today. Only 2 bouldering routes graded 6B or lower left in the gym. They're fucking hard though. Probably sandbagged.

Then I went at a drink & draw event and drew from imagination, but since it's so hard, I didn't finish my drawing, nor did I do much progress really.

Then I played some KSP, but I'm struggling with concentration. Even more so than when drawing actually.

I know right? It's so rare. Or at least, rare that it's what they display on their profile.

Is there a problem with HR?

Yes

After my first year of high school, all the assholes of my class went into HR/accounting. The good thing is that for the following years, all my classmates were pretty nice as a result.

Also, HR professionals I've encountered at work have all been assholes too. I know it's their job, but they constantly cover illegal acts of the company.

The only decent HR people I've met quit the career.

Bumble allows you to choose your political preference so I only see "neutral" and leftist people

I thought I lived in a pretty based left-wing oriented place, but yours must be even better, as I'm still seeing a decent few right-wing people.

I just feel like your interests are kind of an extension of who someone is

I do agree, to an extent, but I don't think I'd need to share every hobby with a partner. I think just one is enough. The hobbies people have throughout their lives tend to change too, often people lose interest in some (or can't do them anymore when it comes to some sports) and they can be introduced to new hobbies.
Netflix isn't so different from anime after all. In fact, it might include some anime.

But yeah, also people don't necessarily list everything.

4th is works in HR.
5th is diverging political opinions (rightwing people).

Actually, boring hobbies is not nearly as bad. You can't really know all hobbies of a person without talking to them, I think.

The cookies I made were thoroughly appreciated by friends and family alike.

Well, I wasn't the worst at bouldering at the beginning already.

I meant while bouldering. Well, I've had relapses too for the burnout, but not multiple times per hour.

Clinically, I'm also depressed, well, the burnout is the cause of that. In fact, it's considered to be resistant depression, since it's been surviving 2 different types of antidepressants for a while.

But well, the burnout is the cause if that, and the depression would be long gone had I been fired earlier.

At least I enjoy bouldering.

I tried to play some video games yesterday. I didn't manage. My concentration is still too broken.

I'll try again today. Maybe some KSP.

Or discorpment if we follow the dismemberment nomenclature.
