            Do you have any projects in mind? I find that one of the things that keep me actually excited about life is engaging in projects. Building something out of wood, electronics, programming… Whatever.

            How do you feel about that stuff?

              Well I’m still learning ToonBoom Harmony, mostly 2D rigging stuff since I’m more of a self taught frame by frame animation type of guy. Including learning Python again. I’m just in general trying to improve my skills as much as I can since I constantly feel like I’m the most incompetent mf lol.

              I did make some shorts and some artworks and designs so I hope that’s good enough. Also I’m trying to touch grass more.

              Just It feels weird because the college and school blockades are still going (5 months now) and I think it’s starting to take a toll a bit on me is all.

                Hey, that sounds dope, the animation thing. Just try and enjoy the process, don’t stress about competence (I know, easier said than done, I’m in the same boat).

                Yeah, big stuff like that takes a tall. Lately I feel extra doomer, seeing the “left wing” in Spain supporting the war budget of the EU (e.g. Gabriel Rufián in Spanish congress talking about "the left also means security and order)

                But hey, we’ll manage. Best of luck to you, mate.
