I Can't Even Right Now
Rough day, I’m sure many of you can relate. What a shitty time to be alive. Everything we thought was just and true is just bullshit. Nothing matters, there are no rules, there is no agreed upon culture, no clear path to simply exist and live an honest live making an honest living.
Have I mentioned we’re obsessive?
I’ve always been a bit of a politics junkie, even way back in middle school I grew up watching politically incorrect. And over these strange years out in this cave, it can kinda become surreal, as if we’re not actually part of this world any more, and these happenings you read about just become so overblown.
We’re all in a really bad headspace right now, and everyone is looking for someone to blame other than themselves. Truth be told no one does shit till things get bad for them, then they’re the righteous ones working to make the world better for everyone else!
We’re just ahead of the curve!
Did we make crazed blogs back when our life was peachy? When we bought shoes and electronic devices made by slave labor in some foreign land?
Nope. The effort we put into our activism directly aligns with how much it benefits ourselves.
But that doesn’t mean we are not righteous in our causes, it doesn’t mean we are either.
I don’t even know what my point is any more. Just that everything is so muched up and convoluted any more.
Just feels like having principle and believing in an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay is such a liability any more.
It was nice to spend a day not stressing about the project though. I allowed myself to get fully obsessed with the insane politics of the day. Without getting to specific there are guilty people out there who were blackmailed and ended on some kind of guest list for engaging in depraved elitist type decadence that riles up the peasants who have to shine shoes for the privilege to lick the dirt off their boots.
Everything is just so fucking broken any more.
Being born into this world is like joining an MMO that’s been out for like 4 years and trying to play on a PvP server without anyone giving your free gear or money.
Everyone knows how to break the rules, knows that the core systems are no longer legitimate, that you’re going to get you sh*t pushed in if you try to play the honest way and the only way to get by is to indulge the broken systems and amass power and wealth by forging alliancing and avoiding the grind.
But if EVERYONE does that, the world falls to ruin.
It’s all so silly. I just want to wake up from this terrible nightmare, this horrible twilight zone episode.
I just want to live in a world where we don’t have to live in fear and shame and make this stupid video game. No more cancelations, no more crazed world falling apart around us, the tools we use going to shit, the industry going to shit, the storefronts going to shit, politics everywhere, tribalism everywhere.
The only thing that doesn’t matter any more is actually making a fucking video game.
Well… we don’t know that. We’re just being a sour puss and crying like a bitch.
That was the point of this blog, to get our bitching and moaning out of our system, and to tell ourselves to shut the fuck up and that it’s not going to do any good.
So life is silly and unfair, WTF else is new? Always has been.
I could not ask for a better time to have SeaCrit in the state that it is in with the industry in such a shit state. We have a game that’s getting better all the time that’s playable on anything, by anyone.
Just gotta get it across the finish line. And then who knows what fucking misfortune strikes us, but at least we’ll be done trying to work hard and we can give up knowing we gave it our best XD
At least then we will feel validated in truly giving up. We haven’t truly given it our all just yet, so no quitting yet, slacker!
I’m telling myself no more overindulging in rage bait, no more poking my head on twitter to see the conspiracies and zany antics that never lead anywhere and only serve to distract us, set us in a panic, or get our hopes up, and ultimately lead to nothing burgers.
We have no power in those realms, we’re a lone, fucktard neckbeard. And the only arena where we can muster any strength at all is making a retarded murder death fish simulator, for other fucktard neckbeards. So no point obsessing what the rest of the world is doing, we need to mind our own fucking business and change what we can.
This world is so crazy. We have strayed so far from the path of just being grateful, productive people. And that’s so friggin’ sad.
I’ve decided, tomorrow we’re going to be grateful, and we’re going to be productive. And we’re not going to let the craziness and division of the world get in the way of getting this SeaCrit out.
We’re but a tiny drop in a large chaotic sea, and we can ebb and flow with the destructive waves crashing against the shore, endless as this tribal strife. Or we can focus our energies on our tiny alcove, and keep this modest fire alive.
Imma be real, I NEEDED a day to just go schizo and blast the internet with crazy bullshit. We have been wallowing in burnout for weeks!
Tomorrow we’re back to work on the Aquatic Murder Blast Simulator.
I have no idea WTF to make of this blog post. But who can blame me!? This world has gone batshit crazy! I gotta think of a song to put in this blog, been trying to think of something for like 30 minutes now. Should it be depressing? Should it be about how I want off this damned planet? Should it be silly? Should it just be something rockni’?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… Fuck it I think we just need something to take the edge off. Yeah, we’re not above posting Weird Al, I’m not proud of it. What has this world come to?
