I hate to do this but I'm drowning and reaching out for help is my only choice now. Explanation w/ Alt text in the screenshots. If you want to help out an impoverished trans woman stay off the street and have the means to do so, I'll be so grateful💛🏳️‍⚧️ paypal.me/NicholasJabb... cash.app/$JulietStMoon

@everyone **PLEASE READ THIS NOTIFICATION BEFORE DISMISSING**

I absolutely loathe to do this, but I need some financial help and I'm out of options. Here are my pay links in order of preference. Any amount that you are willing to give without putting yourself in financial danger helps. Following below will be an explanation:
* https://paypal.me/NicholasJabbour
* https://cash.app/$JulietStMoon

Some of you know I lost my job back in June due to what was effectively legalized discrimination against me based on illness and my transness in a Southern state. The timing couldn't be worse because I was already financially slipping and struggling to find a cheaper apartment to alleviate the strain. And on top of that, I just couldn't find work at all for over a month. No one in the South was willing to hire a trans woman, let alone with a wage high enough to pay my bills and feed me.

As a desperate gambit, I withdrew what little 401K deposit I had and moved up north to a state that, if nothing else, wouldn't be actively hostile to my existence. With the hopes that I could weather the initial instability, find a job and housing, and eventually settle in.

It has now been a month since I moved. My money is completely gone and I have neither long term housing nor a job despite my best efforts. My bank account is in the negative, I'm drowning in debt that's been building for years, I have multiple unpaid bills that absolutely need to be paid for my own safety and sustainability, and I need food and medication, of which I have neither. And this airbnb I rented for a month (which is absolutely bare minimum; I don't even have kitchen access outside the microwave and fridge) runs out on the 24th.

(Please continue)

The good news is I did secure 2 job interviews after all this time, one tomorrow for a part time job about 40 minutes from here, and another Tuesday for a more practical full time job in my current town. However as it stands, I literally don't have enough money for gas to get to tomorrow morning's interview, and I absolutely CAN'T miss it as it's the first real callback I got after applying to dozens of jobs, including going door to door in my town. I can make this work, but I NEED to buy more time, and I lack the money to do it. And that's why I'm asking for help.

I appreciate anything anyone can offer more than you can possibly know. Below are rough estimates of how much money I need and when. How far I will continue to need help depends on how quickly I get hired
## Expenses I need paid tonight (2026-09-06)
* $50– Tank of Gas (I'm almost empty and I need get to and from interview tomorrow morning)
* $50– Dinner tonight and meals tomorrow (have not eaten since this morning)
* **$100 total**
## Expenses I need paid by the end of tomorrow (2026-09-07)
* $50– medication that I'm annoyingly running out of all at the exact same time after tomorrow (including my blood pressure meds, which I do not want to risk skipping).
* $100– Grocery shopping (not sure how long this will last, but I'll have time to actually do so and greatly reduce how much money i need to spend on food daily, even if i am limited to the fridge the microwave and I'll be as economical as possible)
* $10– Laundromat and possible cost of street parking as I drive to these interviews (this is a rough estimate; hopefully it'll be less)
* **$160 total**

(Please continue)

## Expenses I ideally need paid by the end of the week (2026-09-12)
* $60– Overdue car insurance payment (it was due the 1st)
* $100– Overdue storage unit (it was also due the 1st and has what few belongings I was able to stuff in my car when I moved. It's out of state and my plan is to pay it off and move all the belongings to a much more local unit that's dramatically cheaper)
* $80– Replace a flat tire (my car is currently on a donut and it's unlikely my flat tire can be patched)
* $150– Get my overdrawn checking and overmaxed credit card back in passable standing
* **$390 total**
## Further expenses throughout the month
I will continue to need money for groceries, though I don't have a number yet. And I'll need money for a place to stay after the 24th (this airbnb was the cheapest I could find in the area and it cost $1139 for a month for context, but I can also rent cheaper shorter term places that will hopefully bridge me over until I get a job started and get myself back a float in general. I have way more expenses and debts to pay including a maxed out credit card and a loan and medical bills, but those can all be pushed back so I rather not put that on you.

Point is, every bit you are willing to help me with AND WITHOUT PUTTING YOURSELF IN FINANCIAL DANGER will be so so helpful to me.

I'm really sorry to ask for help. I hate doing it. I want to be the saint and not the sainted as much as I can help. But I'll try my best to not doom over that and accept whatever you can offer if you wish. Please and thank you so much.

storyboarding being the new target for "useless menial work that can be automated" means it's now important to highlight how massive of an impact storyboarders have on the final project, it's not the "ugly early drawings before they make it pretty" it makes or breaks good scenes

Death of the author is actually the most popular form of literary analysis outside academia. People just don’t call it that. But most people just watch or read things without even thinking about who wrote it.

reading a Final Fantasy Resonance developer interview and pumping my fist like "YES YES YES" at this whole part

– Why did you decide to opt for random encounters instead of symbol (non-random) encounters?

Nakashima:

Symbol encounters allow players to engage in battle whenever they want. In that sense, symbol encounters are there to accommodate the players’ freedom of playstyle. On the other hand, they could also end up resulting in less battles that are truly memorable. This is my personal experience playing some of the recent RPGs that feature symbol encounters. I do think that random encounters can feel like a hassle at times, but they also allow you to make memories, like remembering the time you struggled against a really tough enemy or felt the joy of getting lucky with battle rewards. I think those are the kind of moments that actually stick with you. So, with that “memorability” being one of the big advantages of the random encounter system, we decided to adopt it for Final Fantasy Resonance.

To let players fully enjoy the best parts of random encounters, we’ve removed all of the elements that could cause frustration. For example, we’ve made sure that encounter rates for enemies are lower in dungeons that feature a lot of puzzles. This is because we concluded that having fewer mob battles while solving puzzles allows for a less frustrating gaming experience. Of course, while it is a random encounter system, the minimap will change colors to alert players of approaching enemies. When the minimap turns yellow, that means the mobs are getting closer, and when it becomes red, players will know that a battle is right around the corner.

Furuya:

The idea of conquering the dungeon itself is also tied to the fact that we chose to have random encounters. It’s more about taking down all the enemies you come across as you progress through the dungeon, rather than choosing whom to battle against. So, we steered the game in the direction of making battles fun, while sticking to the random encounter system. In our pursuit of the classic Final Fantasy experience, this is the decision we ultimately arrived at.

In Final Fantasy XIII, all of your HP recovers after each battle. In that sense, I believe FFXIII was designed so that each individual battle is entertaining. In contrast, Final Fantasy Resonance tasks you with the problem of how to conquer each dungeon. We came up with an experience where you will have to decide how to allocate MP and other resources, or make sure there are recovery points nearby as you progress through the dungeon. So, we thought that the best way to revive those fan aspects of RPGs for the modern era is to add random encounters.

Had maybe a little existential crisis after playing Tomb Raider, and thinking about how Legacy of Atlantis is remaking the idea of Tomb Raider and not the weirder, darker game itself

After playing the new remake of Tomb Raider, I'm convinced you can't actually remake Tomb Raider

The 1996 game's legacy overshadows what actually made it so distinct 30 years ago.
