GOD DAMN IT I CAN'T FIGURE MY LITTLE PONY OUT.
I caved and seached for it on YouTube to see what the hell was going on, because this reminds me a lot of that episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation when everyone gets addicted to that game so some aliens can take over the Universe. Something like that, whatever, the point is that it's now *

I know what you mean. It's like... sadness extract. They distill all the essences of sadness from real life, concentrate them as much as they can. But then they also take the edge off of it being soul-destroyingly sad, because they want to save it to wrench later, and a good parasite doesn't kill its prey. If you want more animated shows that are light-hearted and fun, there's Adventure Time, which has hints of darkness to it but still overall quite light-hearted and a good kind of random, and also Amazing World of Gumball, which is more outright zany and looks like the creators just went "DFJIHHNIRFNIR", but it -works-. Also, both have that hint of adult humor that you'd mentioned earlier, and huge doses of imagination.
Mention of novels reminds me I need to read more. This year, I read... The City and the Stars, which takes place one billion years in the future, and I actually find it profoundly sad for that reason, but it left me actually with a lot of hope, in a way. Like things are never over. New Hope -is- an awesome name! I hope the move goes well! My town-or the nearest one to me-only has the name Culpeper. It's funny, though, because “cul” is French for “ass”, so I call it Ass Pepper. Sometimes.
I'm totally okay with a world in which cat and fox girls proliferate. And bunny girls. Nekomimi, kitsunemimi, usagimimi, okamimimi... it's a good way to learn Japanese animal names. It's also good motivation for me to get off my butt and... sit back down on my butt and draw. IF there aren't enough kemonomimi, then by god, I can MAKE more kemonomimi. Oh, also, you mentioned a Steam. I have some Steams. Here are my Steams. Flowers and ponies and butterflies.
Happy belated Birthday! I know that feeling. I hit 30 two months ago, myself. I look at my resounding lack of accomplishment, and how much time I've had to build on that, and just think
I'm currently not in school because I'm taking a break, but if I hadn't chosen to they would have made me do so anyway. They felt, after I failed three semesters, that I should take a break. I have no idea why I do what I do, why I don't do what I don't do, what I want to do, all manner of things. I'm good at imagining reasons for stuff, too. Separating truth and fabrication is tough. Am I better or worse than I think? But no, I know what you mean. My mom's on disability for reasons not readily apparent, too, and has dealt with crap from several sources.
Weird turns are the best kind of turns! I know at least for myself, if anything I write seems less than meandering, and disjointed, it's because I'm trying [too] hard to keep it that way. Always a pleasure to hear from you, too! Take care!
