Aww you guys. I missed this place to be real. Things just got too polarised while I was going through a lot of bad shit with my health, wasn't medicated, etc. Passionate debate turned into arguments far too easily trying to have open conversation about partisan issues where some people were just never going to change their mind and just wanted to argue their stance. It became easy to snap at people, be nasty and eventually get toxic. It wasn't good for my head space or the Center for me to be around in the state I was in. I needed to get my shit together in a lot of ways. I thought about you guys a lot, even those I probably pissed off beyond reason. Eventually I reflected on a lot of people's words during past disagreements. Okay, that said I may not have ever returned, but MT was like "Yo, no politics, no Chax conspiracies" and I was sold. That's a happy feel good Center I can be into. I'm still passionate about issues but frankly I'm emotionally exhausted with arguing politics online. I'll stick to building a real IRL party and The Center being a chill zone ❤️

Thanks dude. Honestly I stopped because they were costing too much and tasting more and more like chemicals. A pack of 25s go for around $30-35 here now. $65 for a 40g punch. It's literally cheaper to smoke weed but I'm pretty straight edge now. Don't smoke, don't drink, no more raves or festivals (though I miss my flamboyant poly lifestyle sometimes XD) Pleurisy is awful. It's like a fungal or viral infection which is essentially next level pneunonia and I couldnt get antibiotics for it. It's sometimes a symptom of cancer or tuberculosis but thankfully I have neither. It's the worst. If I had to describe it, early on its like putting a rubber band around a balloon and trying to blow it up. That's how breathing felt. Later it's like a hedgehog inside a balloon. Breath out too much and sharp pains. I still feel pain here and there and feel strain but I'm nearly through it after a whole year. I quit smoking beforehand but if I hadn't that would have driven it home XD Writing felt like a natural path to take. I used to bitch about music and games online so I might aswell do it professionally. Nice, will do. It's been on hiatus for like 2 months now as I rotate projects so I don't lose interest. I'll put up a bunch of work in progress pics though. I have a bunch done and a lot on paper and already planned out. Yeah health is a bitch sometimes. That's life though. Cruel mortality constantly reiterating that we're lucky to be here and likely always taking it for granted haha

Being a chonk is alright. It kinda went everywhere so I'm just in general physically larger. I have shed the body of a Chinese girl and am now mostly a man. Sadly all my good clothes don't fit and now I wear the newer fatter variety and only have like 2-3 pairs of everything that I refer to as my fat pants/shirts. I swear I'm like 3 times stronger too. Currently writing for Bonus Stage but one of the guys that works under Dan Stapleton recently informed be that Bonus Stage is a reputation gamble due to shady dealings in the past. Then both he and Jason Coles of EuroGamer both referred me to the guy setting me up. I still have two review obligations to Bonus Stage before I'm done with them but here's what I've done recently: https://www.bonusstage.co.uk/author/glen-nilsson/ Last 2 reviews are Shadow of Adam and crap.. Either Killer7 or Killer is Dead. One of them recently re-released on Steam in HD. Can't remember which lol As for my Zelda 2 remake (slyly titled AZ2R) is there like.. A sub-forum for gaming or whatever? I'll need to jump on my PC to do that. Essentially done 4/5s of Western Hyrule and mapped all dungeons on paper. It's actually transitioning well. It will be a long and ongoing process and I won't release or teaser demo anything til it's complete anywhere but here to keep it unknown before the full version is launched so as to avoid DMCA prior to release but it'll be as true as possible to the original only changing it to a top down action adventure. Sadly no more jump thrust or downward stab but there will be a few substitutions and advanced implementations of new items to make the game more consistent with the series but also more.. Ahh.. Traversable? You know, varied in terrain with more usable items, puzzles, etc. Less primitive. Other two games are my long revised and retconned jrpg and an action adventure survival horror, the latter being based in the Russian tundra in an old derelict missile silo with a dig site at the base ? As for my dumb heart I apparently have a slow heart, arrhythmia, had tier 1 and 2 heart blocks but the tier 2 one is gone. Basically I am encouraged to be a sloth so I'm cool with that. Almost worse than that, I have had pleurisy for over a year and am still on the ass end of that. After it hurting when I breath for so long I convinced myself I was dying but apparently I'm fine but I can't be medicated for it and just need to wait a billion years for it to go away lol

Thanks guys. I missed the Center TBH What's new? Well, I quit smoking and am now 90kg or nearly 200pounds give or take (not good with conversion) am at the gym turning it into muscle so one day I can beat up Chax though I'll probably still lose to Jenny. The Metal Review is at a healthy 5-10k monthly viewership whether I neglect it or not, DudeGoBack is about to pass 1000 episodes. Also I have been writing proper gaming reviews and recently got picked up by a guy who works in IGN/TechRadar/Etc so I'll be a paid gaming journalist soon. On top of that I'm developing 3 games including a secret remake of Zelda 2 in LTTP/Minish Cap style/graphics and have completed 1/3 of the entire world map. So yeah, I keep busy. I'm a pretty different guy TBH. I've been regularly seeing psychiatrists and psychologists for years, have a heart monitor implanted in my chest with Bluetooth and connected to my phone, have to take 6 pills daily and just turned 33. No Switch yet, just got out of debt from moving to a way bigger apartment with the best internet I've seen in this smouldering coal of a nation. Bought a whole house on new furniture etc. But, am saving for a Switch now. I need it to record episodes and review games with regardless (plus new pokemon. Oh lord he comin!) Long story short, being an adult sucks. I miss not caring about stuff or needing to. Here's a photo of my cat.

Yep. Shut up. ❤️
