Today, the real crisis isn’t about mortality; it’s that our lives and stations are unchanged from when we were 30 — or, hell, even 20. It’s about a distinct lack of comfort, of resources. My dad was trying to escape the doldrums of midlife with blond hair; meanwhile, I have friends who can’t even escape a bad marriage because they can’t afford the rent in a new place by themselves, especially if they want to keep their kids in the same school.

For as long as there have been “trend stories” about millennials loving pricey avocado toast, there have been actual millennials sounding the alarm bell about how crippling student-loan debt, a punishing job market, and rapidly rising housing costs have diminished our ability to get a secure footing in our lives and actually start to plan for our futures. And now, we’re not exactly staring out the window of our country house fondly remembering our salad days. We’re still grinding it out, perennially worried about losing it all.

Any single change in our jobs, homes, or health could upend our entire lives in ways that are just financially impossible.

not me just finding out that the shortcut keys in aseprite are almost exactly the same as photoshop's and so my hotkey workflow that i developed in aseprite is making it way easier for me to use photoshop, despite the fact that this should be obvious because aseprite is basically just pixel art photoshop

been working on my physical percussion skills recently in expectation of an electronic drum kit in my future; here's 11 minutes of some vibing out to the track "XI xxv" from the Indricothere ambient album, ALL TIME:

unrelated; i will be playing a show at Evergreen College on June 1st! more info soon. thanks for all the support.
