Socialized countries are like a PvE game. Players work together to win or lose. Capitalistic countries are like a Battle Royale. Almost everyone loses, it's PvP, and the winners are usually the people who paid to win 🏴#anticapitalism #socialism #gamedev #gaming #gamers

It's a reminder that when you're feeling overwhelmed, perhaps make life simpler. Look smaller. Return to your childhood. Your simpler self. And also maybe split some bigass logs. Because it's real satisfying. Love ya'll 💜 #gamedev #lifeadvice #simplelife #homesteading #splittingwood

I moved back to the east coast, and now for the first time live within an hour of my parents. And it's wonderful. Life's a little quieter when I visit them. Problems are here, right now, instead of out in the entire world or our entire industry. #gamedev #lifeadvice #simplelife #homesteading

When I was younger I couldn't wait to escape home. I bounced from place to place, spent 5 years on the other end of the country, and explored the wanderlust of youth. But after my thirties really humbled me, I find home to be exactly where I started. #gamedev #lifeadvice #simplelife #homesteading
