I have three goals:
- Lose weight
- Do at least three game jams
- Stay employed
Stretch goals
- Move into a nice rental house
- Get a new, better paying job
- Get laid
- Ship a game
- Survive the shitstorm that is 2025
This is the first time I’ve ever felt the coming year isn’t going to be great. In fact, I’d rather stay in this one if I could.

I’m gonna stop being passive and pleasant and start speaking my mind.
You can speak your mind and still be kind and considerate. You tend to catch more flies with honey and after a while nobody resents a hard truth in the mix.
On the other hand, being less considerate about truth means that people will ignore you or worse actively fight you just to spite you.
You definitely don’t have to be passive, but you don’t have to be a dick about your truth.
Note that I’m not saying that you’re planning to be a dick, just that I’ve been where you are and don’t wish that on anyone.
Die.
You good my dude?
I second that question, hopefully they aren’t serious
Beat me to it
Been trying to break in this career for too long. If it doesn’t work out by EOY 2025, do something else
To get my book published and travel more. I want to see Hawaii, Fremont Street, Big Ben, Akihabara, and a tropical ocean.
That’s a great list of places to go
I published using the Kindle store. It’s not for everyone, but it scratched my itch. I framed my first cheque as a “published author” … I didn’t make any money, but that’s not why I published.
You don’t need anyone’s approval, you don’t need to pay anyone you don’t want to and you can do it from anywhere with an internet connection.
As a visibly trans person: survive, and help as many other people survive as I can.
I’m not sure what you are trying to tell us when you call yourself a visibly trans person. What you are inside your mind is rarely what is visible on the outside.
So, helping trans people, absolutely, but how about you, who is looking out for you?
I am short with a somewhat femme figure, sparse but obvious facial hair, a flat chest, and a voice that sounds somewhere between a very gay man, a 13 year old boy, and an older woman. I am very visibly crossing many lines that people look for when trying to figure out how to address someone. Meaning, in a time when attacks on trans people and our rights are very quickly ramping up, I am in more danger of harassment and assault than I have been in the last few years.
As far as who is looking out for me: I am, that is part of my goal, but I also have a husband and a few friends who I can ask for help. However, I am in a slightly better position in life than most trans people in this country, since I live in a blue state that is (probably) unlikely to strip me of my rights. Hence my focus on helping others. There will probably be a lot of people coming here for medical treatment, and I want to make sure I help in any way I can.
Get in shape and write have my thesis

Shoot an arrow vertically into the air and then catch it with my teeth
To get a better job than the one I have now. But the effort required to study for interviews is rather daunting…
Take it one step at a time. Practice makes perfect and it’s likely that you’ll fail many times before you succeed. Keep ar it. You can do this!
Thank you for the encouragement!
Improve on my art and grow more as an artist.
End the workaholic streak and get back to my hobbies, maybe even make new friends via hobbies
