- No one tells you about what happens to your farts once you go vegan.
- Every time I listen to a new Ursus Factory album I'm nearly moved to tears by how much they've grown and the emotional resonance in them. But I gotta say, their heavy, grungy and messy first couple of albums are still my faves and hit differently.

- If I get the job that I applied for earlier this week the first thing I'm gonna do is resubscribe to all the patreons I cancelled but at a higher tier than I was at originally.

- Talking with other professional GameDevs that are making their own games in their free time - I'm astonished how many roadblocks their employers put in front of them. Do you want someone to stay there only because you made it difficult to leave? I guarantee you it wont work out well.

- I will admit, as much as this whole "losing a job I liked" thing has sucked - uninstalling Microsoft Teams from my PC felt preeeeetty goooooood.
- Reposted by Alex MExcept if you're, I dunno, a scientist who was muzzled & whose research was destroyed by Harper Government. Ask them how they feel. Let's not memory-hole what a fucking disaster he was for Canada. Oh, and HARPER killed laws that prevented the USA from owning our print media. Fuck Stephen Harper.

- Did you know? My cat is very cute. This position is a trick though and he will attack if you try to pet him.
- *Looking for work* "Oh, you can apply for work at [STUDIO WITH TERRIBLE CONTRACT QA PRACTICES]!" How do I say this constructively? I'd rather eat thumbtacks than work there.
- Random hitting it in one this Monday morning.
- *First morning in Finland* Holy cow this coffee is strong. How can they drink this? *First morning back in Canada drinking my normal coffee* This just tastes like dusty water.

- My former boss wrote a recommendation on my LinkedIn. You should hire me (if you can)
- Reposted by Alex Mhaha hey you ever post something you thought would be a funny meme and instead you uncover a psychopath Nazi CEO who funds his company through an illegal hostel where he visa traps interns/employees and uses them as self proclaimed "slave labor" in a basement with no windows cool cool me too...

- Reminds me of the time I was asked what game I was playing on a dating app and I reluctantly responded with Clickolding. Though in my case we dated for six months after that.
- Been sober now for three months. It's really not that difficult. But sometimes I wish I wasn't.
- Every time I've gone to the grocery store since coming back to Canada I keep reacting like "Jesus Christ, how do they get away with this?" It should be a crime. Groceries prices in Finland were so damn reasonable. Not even compared to this! Just in general!
- Reposted by Alex MGot a few people responding to this and calling it "crashing out," which is super weird to me. It's like... having fun about some dumb shit (RGB lighting in PC cases) while also being kinda serious about how toxic and disgustingly dismissive the whole "let people enjoy things" thing can be?
- I'm just tired of *gestures vaguely*
- Anyone have recommendations for online Python courses? I have a strong desire to fill in some knowledge gaps and I feel like that would suit my needs.
- I'll admit that as soon as we hired another QA person I knew "when things get tight around here again that means I'm gone" since I was paid a fair amount more than them. At the very least it went to someone I recommended and who has two kids. It's hard to be mad at them specifically.
- I'd love to say this is a surprise but I just lost my job. It was the best place I ever worked, but it had some issues and it was my time for the chopping block. I'm looking for work now? 18 years of QA experience, most of which has been spent in the Mobile game space, but some in console.
- Girls! rocks.
- Reposted by Alex MIn 2023 the WHO declared that there is no safe amount of alcohol-consumption. Health Canada's website defines "low-risk drinking" as: - 10 drinks per week for women - 15 for men

- Seeing myself in the mirror become progressively more and more like I want myself to look has been very affirming. '26 being the year of intentional change is already beginning to show results.
- Gettin' real tired of these long, intense, weird dreams.
- Reposted by Alex MPlease unfollow the altnps account. It's a do-nothing, disinfo slop mill that's trying to figure out how to Q-Anon the left for future profit, and that is not news.
- I'm still a bit annoyed at all the people who after the breakup with my "woke ex" were like "yeah their opinions were annoying, huh?" I just told them that I still agreed with everything they said and those folks then tried to say that it was HOW they argued it - which I also still felt was fine.
