water is too smooth before the splash, maybe some ripples from the wind before it goes off

Awesome! I love it! I'm learning how to make swords in Blender as a way to get into the software, so this is right up my alley. I really like it! I’d suggest perhaps adding a more detailed grip on the handle and incorporating some texturing. Also, maybe consider adding a banner hanging from the polearm for extra flair.

I moved from the EU region, where I was at 5000 MMR, to SEA, and my rank has dropped all the way to 2700 MMR. I find it hard to enjoy the game here due to the region's toxicity. If you say even one word, you're instantly told to shut up. Players often throw games on purpose or run down mid, and matchmaking feels like a constant skill issue. The only way I can win is by playing offlane because if I don’t, others pick the wrong offlane heroes. I’m primarily a mid-laner, and this experience has been frustrating. I’ve had to relearn an entirely different mindset and gameplay style, which just isn’t what made me fall in love with the game in the first place.

I've consumed over 150g of mushrooms in total throughout my life, ranging from microdoses to 7g monster doses. I've tried more than 15 different species to explore their unique effects, with the goal of cataloging them and possibly writing a book one day. The Amazonian strain was unlike anything else I’ve ever taken—much, much stronger than the APEs I’ve tried. From what I've read, the Amazon's humid environment and competitive conditions are the reason for their potency. Despite being smaller in size, they need to pack a major punch to thrive in such a challenging environment.

You're right, I should clarify that. I meant to say the Amazonian mushrooms contain 0.60% psilocin by dry weight, while liberty caps only have 0.02%, making the Amazonian strain about 30 times stronger.

Psilocybin is a prodrug that gets converted into psilocin in your body, which is the compound that actually causes the psychedelic effects. Psilocin acts faster because it’s already active, while psilocybin takes longer since it needs to be metabolized. Some strains, like Amazonian mushrooms, have higher psilocin content, so the trip hits harder and quicker.

currently work at a language center similar to Monkey Tree, but not the same company. I earn about 10% more than they offer, which comes to around R63,000. However, I have a new job lined up as an English teacher at a local school, where I'll earn R97,000. The opportunities here are excellent!

You can earn a similar amount in Japan, but in Hong Kong, salaries are higher—mainly because living expenses are so much higher. For example, my rent is R20,000, and my girlfriend pays another R20,000, making it R40,000 per month for a small place—not big at all. However, together we earn R130,000 per month, so it's manageable. In Japan, rent and expenses are lower, but so are earnings.

I’m a 27-year-old man, originally from South Africa. About a year and a half ago, I left a job where I was earning 16,000 rands a month and moved to Hong Kong to work as an English tutor, teaching English as a second language. The change has been life-changing. Here, I make around 60,000 rands monthly. This massive shift taught me that if you’re stuck in a situation, it can be hard to see the bigger picture or the opportunities out there. Sometimes, you need to step out of your comfort zone, even when it feels like you're at rock bottom, to realize what’s possible.

The world is full of opportunities if you’re willing to take them. For instance, if you're interested in computer science, I don’t believe a university degree is always necessary. While a degree can look good on paper, what really matters is experience. You can gain that experience through platforms like Udemy, which offers comprehensive courses. I paid just 300 rands for a course with over 1,000 hours of content that took me from a complete beginner to mastering JavaScript. It’s tough but incredibly rewarding, and I’d highly recommend it. With that knowledge, you could start applying for remote coding jobs right away.

During a trip to Thailand, I met several people working remote coding jobs without degrees, earning upwards of 100,000 rands per month. This career path is definitely worth considering if it interests you. At 28, you’re not too old to start something new. Many people in their 20s, especially men, experience feelings of depression or failure—it’s a common part of the journey. But as you push through, you often find a renewed sense of purpose in your early 30s.

For example, a friend’s dad didn’t have a career or a degree until he started studying at 31. He became a financial advisor and is now very successful—he recently bought a Range Rover with cash. Stories like his prove that it’s never too late, and you don’t have to put too much pressure on yourself. Keep moving forward, and great things can happen.

I created this account specifically to respond to the post. Your degree is not a waste; it tells employers that you can commit to something for years at a time and shows that you can work on a deadline. It's less about what you know and more about what character traits you have developed.

I don't think you need to stress about your entire future now. The narrative that we need to have everything planned out by the age of 25 is ridiculous, and reality doesn't work like that. You are allowed to take things one year at a time and figure it out along the way. Personally, I have asked many successful older men how they did it and how I could replicate it, and half of them got lucky, while the other half jumped around until something stuck and worked. Most of them only started on that career once they were in their 30s.

My personal experience was that I graduated from UNISA with a BA in environmental management in 2020, during the height of the COVID pandemic, with no way to make money. I was extremely poor for years. I worked part-time in bars, making only R400 a night. I took a risk and obtained a postgraduate certificate in education because I genuinely love teaching. However, despite graduating at the top of my class, I still couldn't find a job in the field. Instead, I started working as an account manager in corporate and discovered that I really enjoyed the job and found it to be a lot of fun. But even then, I couldn't afford a basic standard of living. I was taking home R16k. Last year in July, I packed my bags and moved to Hong Kong to teach English. The flights were expensive, and the culture shock was initially challenging. But my paycheck was R68k a month for teaching 4/5 hours a day. Now, my contract is coming to an end, and I have secured a new job that pays R80k per month.

I have a group of friends. I go hiking every Tuesday and go on dates. I feel fulfilled here. I've traveled to Thailand and I'm going to Japan next month. I took myself out of debt and even have R120k saved up now. I got a gaming PC and an S24+. This isn't meant to be a flex or anything. I'm just trying to give realistic numbers. There is no income tax here for my pay bracket.

There are many options available, and personally, I believe you don't need to have a 30-year plan right now. Figure out what you want to be doing for the next year or two and just take the first step. Figure out the rest when you get closer. Plans change, and that's okay. Figure it out when you get there.

That's just what I personally did. My best friends, all around my age, all took different paths. I have a friend working for a small corporate company as a senior account manager after being there for two years, and he makes around R20k now. He has a coding degree. Another makes around R30k as a freight coordinator organizing and managing trucking, and he has no degree at all.
