Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe.

Low key was itching to play a Kirby game, so after some recommendations from some friends, I picked this one up. I've never really played a Kirby game before, but I'm glad I picked this one up because I've been enjoying it thus far. It's a pretty easy game, but it's still pretty fun too.
 
Yeah! It’s a limited edition for those of us with fat fingers 😂
Well, better than nothing. I'm on flight sim every damn day and have been doing it for seven years XD Spend so much money on that hobby XD - PMDG 777 coming soon and that's another £120

person with almost 4K hours all up in msfs XD

It’s a good game, was a bit buggy when it was first released and there have been some crappy add ons released too (Captain Sim ahem) alongside some really good stuff! It’ll be interesting to see how they have developed it for the 2024 version!

Playing Cities Skylines just now

Simulator, not a GAME XD - then again on Xbox it's a game alright. Plus she's still just a baby compared to P3D - I have P3d V5 still installed anyway 😉 - Captain scam is crap 🙁 They used to be good back in the day now they are not. Most of the devs have left CS to go to BlueSims and are the ones making the B757...

I’m hopeful for the B757 - certainly the updates they have been posting look promising and it’s probably my fav IRL aircraft.
 
I just got a Series S two weeks ago and I've been playing through Sonic Unleashed for the first time. I'm right at the end of the game but I wanted to get a bunch of extra lives before I went back to Eggman Land. I also want to get every single achievement in the game too! The game runs great on the newer Xbox console, it's a shame it lagged on the 360 because I feel like more people would have liked it.
 
Gigantic: Rampage Edition

The game was brought back on the 9th, for a revival after being dead for like 6 or so years. It's like a moba and hero shooter combined. (the only moba I've ever touched in my life)
 
I can't imagine completely stopping. Maybe dedicated one/two day/s per week. But in my situation, I live alone, have no job, and barely scrape by off SSI. I can't work normal jobs, and I haven't found any good part-time WFH jobs that don't require college degrees (only have a HS Diploma).

I've attempted learning coding, but its too much for my mind to wrap around, so something in customer service or writing would be best probably, for me.
I definitely empathize with your situation - I too have no college diploma, but I am fortunate to be experienced with software, app, web development and have been in the industry for a while. If it means anything, I used to have paralyzing anxiety in certain situations, and didn't believe I could hold a job, especially not in tech. But with a shift in how I spent my time and viewed my future, things changed drastically for me.
If it's an option, learning to build websites using some of the tools available may be something you can manage. There are more and more no-code solutions. Check out squarespace, wix, wordpress, or other platforms/software that allow you to install themes, use drag & drop editors, and plugins for functionality. This is something that can let you find a WFH entry level job for let's say $35-50k, and if you are able to learn a bit of HTML/CSS and Javascript in a couple years once you are comfortable with the no-code setups, you can hit the higher end of the range and break over 50k too. There are also many people making higher, at 75-100k as web developers, but that would definitely require more advanced coding skills. I speak from experience having run my own dev agency and now in a different company running theirs and taking on a CTO position for their 2nd company.

If I've missed the mark, my apologies - I don't want to tell you what to do. However, since you showed an interest in coding, want to make more money, don't have a diploma, and would like a WFH job... Web development seems like a natural fit if you have the energy in you to try it one more time. I personally treat coding as my videogame. Like a game, I can grind out a new skill for a new programming language, framework/library, or another hard-skill in the tech world. Like a game, it can feel boring or stressful, but fun too as I create and feel more accomplished. Like a game, I get the thrill, the rush of pounding on my keyboard, and the dopamine from launching a project. My Github portfolio, client list, and resume is my new skills window, my new progress bar & XP, and my gold & silver coins are USD in the bank. The best thing I ever did was treat coding as my videogame, but you can apply this philosophy to any skill or industry.

Sorry, didn't mean to preach lol
 
Picking up GTA V again. Been a hot minute since I've played it, and I remember dropping it after failing one of the early missions lol.
 
I've been playing Starfield. The devs are releasing a new update for the game on May the 15th and I'm pretty excited about that. It's supposed to add a few things.
 
Currently been Helldivers 2 and Apex Legends. And with the launch of the new Apex season today I will definitely be playing that a lot.
