$130,000 in student loan debt. Cosigned by my family members who can't afford to pay either. I can't vent to them about it either.

I have a shit job, basically minimum wage, that I commute 45 minutes to.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Game Programming. Guess how many of those jobs are available?

I lack the will to live, but don't have the strength to kill myself.

In a way, NFTs were supposed to solve this.

Now that's a healthy relationship. I agree marriage isn't for some, just like having kids isn't for some. To each their own, perhaps my views will change in the future.

All I get is job agency spam on LinkedIn

I understand the roots of marriage, but I want a partner who would be ok with parting ways in the future. We live once, why do we have to commit to 1 person for most of it? Things I enjoyed 5 years ago I don't care for now. Tastes change.

How does someone get into the industry nowadays?

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Game Programming, experience in Unity and Unreal, C++ and C# expertise, professional level code, and all these recruiters keep ghosting or rejecting me. I've been rejected from entry-level jobs where I met all the basic and most of the bonus qualifications.

I don't need a friend for that :)

I just graduated with a BS in Game Programming. I already feel I'm never getting a job in the industry.

That's a good question. I believe if a mental, physical, or psychological trait hinders your QOL or impedes your ability to perform basic tasks, it qualifies as a disorder or dysfunction.

I think everyone has traits that make them lean towards dysfunction, but they are manageable, tolerable, or not seen as abnormal.

Most Deaf people don't see their deafness as a handicap or dysfunction. While some hearing folks might think "they're missing out on so much" it can't be further from the truth.

This was the first time I saw Asexuality mentioned on a major community, so I was happy to see the spread of awareness, then the first comment was along the lines of "it's probably a mental disorder". To me, that sounds anti-LGBT.
