It’s been a rather productive year so far:
- I did a lot of cross stitching.
- Went vegan.
- Dabbled into gardening (my partner did most of the work sadly but I’m more interested now than I was before!).
- Got into birdwatching so I started exploring nature with a much more different perspective.
- Set up a bird feeding station that got really popular among the birds AND the neighbours.
- Learned how to crochet.
- A combination of the aforementioned things somehow taught me how to manage my depression and anxiety better. I’m in a much better spot now than when I was mostly playing video games.
Your ladybug stitch that you posted looks really fantastic!
Thanks, it was meant to be a birthday present for my partner and I did it in secret. Really fun project!
Fucked up.
Been short on sleep.
Probably related, now I think about it.
Work, eat, shit, sleep
Got a job that doesn’t suck and has allowed me to grow as a person. I do wish it’d pay more, but I no longer dread life and actually get excited to go in to the office.
Congratulations!
That is worth waaaay more than a great pay for a shitty job. Congrats!
Oh believe me, I’m well aware. I’m very lucky to have found something I love.
Played a million games, pursued all other hobbies, travelled, enjoyed time with my wife, visited hundreds of cultural sites and heavily ranted about inflation, shrinklation and the general shittification of all and everything. T’was a good year 😉
Read 36 books and counting
A lot of latin dance. Tons of lessons, workshops, and social dancing. I recommend it :)
That sounds so fun! I’ve had dancing on my list for ages but sadly can’t find any groups doing anything around here. One day!
Definitely do it! It got mr making friends and getting out more.
Had a little breakdown, quit a job I hated, started a business, got married. It’s been a wild ride
U good now?
got ritalin and im actually good at my job now
I have been sick for a long time, but this year has been the first since my health declined that I’ve finally felt better. I got my first real job in years and started a new one again recently. I lost two of my furry companions who both had been with me for the better part of two decades. It’s not been an easy year, but the future looks bright.
Been a decent year for my bucket list! I managed to tick off:
- get married
- go to Eurovision
- go on a cruise
Also started work on my first “real” video game, been learning how to make them as a hobby since 2020. Releasing that sometime next year will be another thing ticked off the list!
We have had a lot of crap stuff happen as well though (health stuff and whatnot) and it’s just generally been a very stressful and disrupted year so I’ll be glad to see the back of it despite all the good that happened.
Lucky you going to Eurovision, how did you feel about Sweden getting the win? I know Finland was the fan favourite, and I read that apparently the crowd made that clear on the night
What’s the game you’re working on?
It’s just a really simple hex-based city builder. Very minimal, barely even a game really. Suitable first project for a solo dev I’m hoping!
(If you’re on Mastodon I post, among other things, updates on it here)
The art style is really cute, looks great for a first project!
Got a massive raise, switched to the four-day work week because I can afford it now, went to the cinema almost every week and watched a shit-ton of great movies. I even attended a marathon with all Harry Potter movies back to back and slept in the cinema.
No regrets.

Idk that’s about it.
Sleep, shit, Puter, School
