  • In terms of satisfaction? No. In terms of finances? Not sure. By my age, my parents were together, my mom had my sister and my dad became a step father to her, they had a lot of friends and were very popular. Me…not so much in any of those things. But I’m living comfortably in my own apartment, no kids or S.O. so I have a lot of spare cash and a lot of things I like. I don’t know if my parents had the same pleasures as me at this age.






  • Storyboard/3D generalist. I work at a small animation studio from home. The good thing about this is that I basically work whatever hours I want as long as I get my work done. That means 11 or 12 start times and I also get a chance to work on my personal projects when it’s a slow time. The pay could be better but that’s my only complaint.








  • I go out and do stuff for me. I’m perfectly comfortable with wandering around and looking at things without ever interacting with everyone besides thanking the person behind the register after buying something. I’ve had social anxiety for so long that it’s become a normal thing for me now to not expect any interaction with anyone. And, because of this, no one wants to talk to the quiet person who is scared to look at you in the eye. They might think I’m just being rude or something but in reality I’m avoiding a potential interaction that scares me. So, speaking to what this person said about going out and doing stuff I can relate. Going out in public doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll interact with people. You can be alone even when surrounded by people.







  • Oh yeah, its amazing to hear the voices for these people but, as you say, it’s scary. Since I’m the director and creator it all falls to me to decide everything. I mean EVERYTHING from inflictions in their voices, how a line is delivered, scheduling, payment etc. Of course, I give my actors freedom to interpret how they see the characters. You have to have a fine balance between making decisions but also letting them be creative with what they do during directing sessions.
