it's really really hard

this is why we need to normalise sharing scrappy fiddles - to let talented and creative people like freya post to their heart's content

I think the biggest hurdle I need to overcome after my burnout is my perfectionism I'm pathologically stuck feeling like everything I do has to live up to or exceed, everything I have already done it's stopped me from releasing work multiple times, even work that was 90% finished

@TodePond I was just looking at Orca today, it looks like a whole lot of fun, but also a brain trap for me, I wonder if I will be able to climb out of it...

Why I am vegetarian

I am vegetarian because I don't want animals to be killed in my name. It is not for any other reason.
