Hi! I'm Jen, a quest/mission/content/narrative/whathaveyou designer who mostly just wants to give players Cool Things To Do, and maybe have them feel things while they do it.
If they're feeling up to it. It's okay, I don't read all quest text either.

Picked up Star Rupture in Early Access and it's scratching the Satisfactory itch and a few others I didn't know I had. Already INCREDIBLY polished, with maybe some opportunities for progression smoothing, but like... wow.
Survival + Factory + Shootin' Aliens is a winning combo.

Hey everyone, got a request from a RSM (Rancho Santa Margarita) community member, they're asking for people to show up for their Jan. 28th city council meeting at 7pm to denounce their mayor for saying he would "proudly stand with ICE."

Said no to a recruiter call because the game being pitched to me had every single female character in a thong.
I'm not THAT unemployed.

Crunching for 1 (one) year gave me chronic gastritis, a facial tik, cystic acne, and insomnia that tripped off the worst manic episode of my life.
It took 4 years for all of this to resolve after that period of crunch ended.

I'm just one voice in a huge nation with an absolute madman at the helm, but the vast majority of us don't support this and are appalled by this unprovoked violence.
My heart aches for the people of Venezuela. I'm so sorry.

Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

You ever just want to take a wild swing in another direction?
I had so much fun researching and planning this trip that I'd love to help others take awesome road trips too.
There's a part of me that wants to make this an app. That's a lot.

I heard you need to eat their heart and then you have to defeat them in hand to hand combat in a dream, but ymmv
The secret to networking in video games is to meet lots of peers at a similar stage in their careers. Identify one who's really talented; you must then kill them and bury their heart under a crossroad. A thing wearing their face will contact you in 7 days and offer to elevate you, at a price.

My planning streak is satisfied. I just finished booking myself a 15 day road trip through Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona where I will visit 9 national parks, 13 national monuments, and see Sedona and Roswell in the mix! Very much looking forward to hiking and walking my ass off in between driving.

Today my Years Alive counter ticks up again.
For all that it's a profoundly strange time to be alive, (and I'm sure that's been true for many generations before me) I'm good with it. I don't feel too young or too old. I'm exactly where I'm meant to be.

Getting real tired of the Roaring 20s 2, Electric Boogaloo we got going on over here.
Unemployed while huge amounts of money prop up the veneer of a thriving industry, rewarding deserving games while also highlighting the absence of humans that make them possible.
Waiting for the music to stop.

Had an amazing time at LARP this past weekend but laryngitis and an upper respiratory infection smuggled itself home in my bags and I'm not a fan.
Anecdotally I am getting sick a lot more often this year than I have since covid. I miss being healthy the vast majority of the time.

LARP tomorrow and I am 0% ready. I have today and tomorrow morning to become 100% ready.
I am SO looking forward to immersing myself in make believe after all I've been through the past few months. It's soul cleansing, I swear.

Applied for some jobs today. Went to a morning workout class. Took some more things to storage to reduce the incomprehensible clutter pile.

Moved back in with my family after getting kicked to the curb by Amazon and unceremoniously abandoned by my roommate.
Every fiber of my being feels like this is a mistake but I don't feel comfortable gambling that I will find a job before severance runs out.

So stressed out that I picked up my phone to look something up and instead opened my sudoku app and played a few games before I realized I was dissociating.

I attended 1 semester of law school before Homer Simpsoning back out after realizing how bad of a fit it was. My parents told me I would waste my life on WoW. Joke's on them, I was working at Blizzard a year later.

First rejection in the job hunt cycle. This one didn't hurt too bad. I kind of had a feeling. Still, I'm grateful for the months of runway that I have to figure this out.
