In sweden, I will sit around and wait for my friends with jobs and families to have time to do shit, watching my reflection in the monitor.

Found a great girl, but she's afraid of me and my life style and went with a normal person instead.

I would Musk and try to save the world, but that just exposes me to the same type of assholes that made me sell minecraft again.

People who made sudden success are telling me this is normal and will pass. That's good to know! I guess I'll take a shower then!

I really appreciate all the offers to hang and talk and all. As an introvert, new friends is hard to do even when fine, but it means a lot!

And just venting and not feeling like I had to hide made it feel a bit easier to cope with already. ❤
