This kind of hollowness that makes you want to cry but also stay strong because it's a new feeling you have discovered.
You don't know how to deal with it because you were so much used to it that it's absence makes your heart skip a beat.
Life gives you everything one moment and the next moment, you're on your own.

Deadwood
I think I must have died
And just never realised
Leaving a dead body behind
I’m truly out of my mind
I’m already dead inside
I simply watch as time passes by
As I hide
From the great eye
A tooth for a tooth
An eye for an eye
You can have both for free
Should the pain make me feel less hollow inside
I’m just an empty shell
Stuck in this never-ending hell
Dreaming I had wings
Dreaming of so many…

Weathering
Spring may come, and Spring may go, but Summers take away parts of me.
This Autumn has yet again left me hollow, and I feel like there's no where left to run.
I pity the Winters, for they are always criticised for being cold and barren, but its the cold that makes me feel, and its the barrenness that helps me grow.

‘You have seen my brother Horace—still sharp—a kind of cunning—but all empty and brittle—a shell—with something gone—forever.’

Bottling these thoughts inside.
Suppress them, stop being crazy.
The voices were indeed, winning tonight.
I joke about it but it's something that's always lurked upon my shoulders.
Questioning my existence, my worth, my everything.
Feeling the hollowness in my chest, as it begins to consume me.
I do so well for awhile....
But then something triggers me.

OK THIS IS NOT A FUCKING DRILL EVERYONE FUCKING REPEAT AFTER ME. THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL DO WHEN YOU WATCH MUPPET CHRISTMAS CAROL THIS YEAR:
You will navigate to the page on disney plus (and it has to be here. Unless someone has actually uploaded the REAL movie anywhere else you cannot get it elsewhere)
BUT YOU WILL NOT HIT PLAY. You won’t do it. Because it’s NOT THE REAL VERSION OF THE FILM AND DISNEY IS FUCKING LYING TO YOU AS IT ALWAYS DOES
You will scroll down HERE. To EXTRAS instead. You MUST GO HERE. This is non -negotiable
THEN YOU WILL SCROLL DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF THE EXTRAS AND YOU WILL THEN HIT PLAY ON THIS BAD BOY: THE FULL LENGTH VERSION
And you will watch it. And you will thank me for having been so blind and led astray by that stupid fucking mouse. You’re welcome.

Big fan of sun motifs in characters not necessarily being about positivity and happiness and how they're so " bright and warm" but instead being about fucking brutal they are.
Radiant. A FORCE of nature that will turn you to ash. That warmth that burns so hot it feels like ice. Piercing yellow and red and white. A character being a Sun because you cannot challenge a Sun without burning alive or taking everything down with them if victorious.

i am not immune to stories in which characters who have endured harsh, empty existences become absolutely transformed by someone’s sincere love for them and learn to live

Fuck Unity (The game engine, not the concept)
They want up to TWENTY CENTS per game install, once you reach a certain number of installs.
TWENTY CENTS
Just imagine, 100 people install your game and you suddenly owe Unity 20 fucking dollars. Chances are, you haven't even made that much in profits from 100 sales.
It's time for unity to fucking die. How fucking dare they demand royalties from game devs for an engine THAT ISN'T EVEN FREE?
In case you don't know, here's a list of a few bigger games that use the Unity engine:
Hollow Knight
Rimworld
Subnautica
Pokemon Go
Cities: Skylines
Rust
Hearthstone
Pillars Of Eternity
Cuphead
