My idea for a Billionaire' hell: Everyday, they must collect 1 billion pennies by hand, one at a time. Those coins are converted into bills and divided fairly among poor people. The billionaire is given 1¢ and must keep doing this until they get enough pennies to equal their earthly wealth.

Picked up two new games in a bundle.
First is Bo: Path of the Teal Lotus. Precision Platformer, fully hand-drawn. I need to work on the "precision" part.
Second was Voidwrought. Very Metroid-esque search action game with a sci-fi fantasy aspect.
Loving both so far.

Blessed silence.
The benefit of working in my job is there's nobody piping in Christmas music. The only music that plays in my office is the music I choose to play.

It's a weird feeling to come into what was Campaign day and realize "Oh, right. My campaign concluded last week."

Today, I give thanks for friends who supported me in my transition, for having a job I don't actively hate, for getting my first book published, and for having been alive when this scene and the dramatic buildup to it first aired:

Huh...I've been writing for about four hours now, and it looks like I've put in about two thousand words. Time to take a break.

Was it really seven years ago? Seven years ago, I had three full collections of Toku Toys:
Fourze Switches, including legend riders.
Drive Shift Cars and weapons.
Kyoryuger Zyudenchi.
I wound up having to sell the latter two because I needed to pay rent then. Still regret it.

I know it's not related, but there's a certain joy in seeing a Detective-themed Pretty Cure the year after I finished up a Phantom Thieves magical girl campaign.

My brain: Got another idea for you...
Me: Nine #Magiknights books in various stages of completion and you want to add one more?
My brain: Ok, hear me out. Let's take Marvel Runaways, mix it with Healin Good Precure, and throw in some Fantastic Journey.
Me: Dammit, I'm in.
