Laid off in the Ubisoft SF closure in Dec 2024, haven't been able to get past recruiter interviews and only had six months of contract work since then, it's definitely looking like my career in animation is over at this point and I need to start over in another industry so I can support my family.
This is basically me but for the absolutely atrocious original chicken sandwich they do sell in the States, that I just noticed they now call the Long Chicken, for some reason. I could eat 100 of these foul things.
Yep, seems to install and run just fine. What a relief 😮💨
I found it! 🎉
what, and I do mean what, the fuck. admittedly I never upgraded from like Flash CS5 but this is crazypants
A long-haired black cat sits on white carpet looking off to the left. His ears are pointed forward and his green eyes have narrow pupils from looking at a bright window.
Today's Muninn. Every day is a horror lately.
Waking up from nightmares of helplessly watching world-ending disasters and then reading the news feels like being stuck in a feedback loop.
What? Nooooo 😭 I'm not a fan of starting to get old enough to see the legends I grew up admiring leave us.

Muninn looking longingly up at the window this morning. He's a nervous jumper and usually needs a lift up to the windowsill.
Eyeball cleanse for these cursed times...
Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers
Oh my god I could be here all day posting these things, it's really hard to pick one so I'm going to pick 4 fight me
Hand holding a plastic soda bottle with a pink and red label. The label reads Coca-Cola Peach and has a picture of a white peach on it covered in bubbles.
I miss this and the Peach Coke from Japan. 🥲
This is really nice Jason, I particularly like the twist in the torso and the X movement that keeps it feeling bouncy at all angles.
Hey millenials: Better go check that album full of CD-Rs if you've got data on them, I tested a few yesterday from 2002 and had to give them a good swipe of the t-shirt to even get my aging BD to read them.

My brand new, $3000 computer, lol 💀 stuck in an automatic repair loop where it keeps reassigning the drive letters. Earliest I can get it repaired is Thursday.
I was making a giant cheese costume out of cardboard, my hand slipped while cutting a big hole using a box cutter, and the blade went straight into my left arm. Still have the scar. The costume was so big that when I got laid off from Obsidian it was too big to fit in my car and I left it behind.
I've looked around online even on 🏴☠️ sites and come up empty... Internet Archive only has the first disc (did you know they have whole CDs? Crazy), couldn't find any Windows editions of the CDs being sold on eBay, etc... I don't want to bother you but I'm pretty stumped!
Got a new computer recently. Tore my place apart but can't find my install CD for Adobe CS5. Exhausted all my other options. Feeling really defeated. I know it's like 16 years old but it's worked for me okay up until now and almost $800 a year for the same thing feels absurd. 😞
You know what I only just noticed this year is that he's holding a fork and a knife. What's the knife for?

Finally got to upload my KPDH video I made for a AWA Accolades, it made finalists in the Romance category. 👍 Just glad to have people watch it. youtu.be/ZldcczpbDbs?... #kpopdemonhunters
Black cat with its head resting, eyes open, on the edge of a cat tree, and a long line of drool dangling from its mouth
I must've woken up Muninn from a quality nap based on the length of that drool...
I think awareness, any awareness, helps, and that we really can't know for sure if someone is "faking it" or if what they're experiencing is real, so I give people the benefit of the doubt. Teenagers especially are trying to figure themselves out and it's a process of trial and error.
And again, frankly, don't give a shit if some people are faking it for "clout" if it means someone somewhere who has struggled with this for years without any idea why can find out what it is and get help.
I don't doubt this is a thing. But saying that people who are just "a little bendy" can't claim to have EDS just because your symptoms are worse is very gatekeepy. It's a very typical "invisible" syndrome and just because some people have a "lesser" of it doesn't mean they're faking it for clout.
I sincerely don't care if some teenagers mistakenly believe they have EDS if it means maybe more doctors will give a shit about it and people like me don't have to spend years getting bounced around specialists and told I'm "too young" to have a problem because they can't connect the dots.
This kind of gatekeepy bullshit is why I don't tell doctors I have hEDS, other than the fact most of them don't know what it is. Symptoms are on a spectrum, and it's not a contest to be the most disabled to qualify. The existence of people with a "easier" time doesn't disqualify your suffering.
I'm so glad this creepy thing wasn't around when I was a kid, it seems like a major chore for the parents when there's already so much to do at the holidays. I feel like this is one of those things that exists because of algorithms and social media encouraging people to go to extremes.
