    I play on Hitbox and I made two whole videos on why I personally switched to Hitbox, which was because of my left wrist. I am not going to repeat the contents of those videos here, because the videos exist and the past hasn’t changed. If you want to know more about my personal reasoning,…

    A second job to cure my anxiety?

    I’ve been in full time employment on and off since forever. I’ve taken some freelance periods here and there, but since January of 2019 I’ve been back in full-time employment and honestly it’s kind of nice to have fixed holidays, not having to worry about health insurance, actually getting money back from the tax office…
