I am Infinite, as are you

What's good, everyone. I'm an anime & hip-hop fan from the west side, USA. For years, I've struggled with depression and undiagnosed neurodivergence.

Age: 32 Star sign: Cancer Black American Demisexual Demiromantic (questioning) Chronically online Tiktok creator (almost at 5k) Gamer

All my life, I've focused only on becoming as creative as possible; and due to that, my one true skill is art in its various forms. I'm a:

Author

Storyteller

Screenwriter

Illustrator

Poet

Rapper

Beatmaker

Audio Engineer

Video Editor

Filmmaker

There are various other forms of creativity that I've expressed myself in, but these are some of the more prominent modalities I've explored. My skill level in these expressions vary, but you'll understand which ones by exploring my page.

I work on a variety of stories, including: Jack's Multiverse, Kid Zed, The Adventures of Conan Lucifer; and my magnum opus, The Chronicles of Water, which will see several adaptations from the book series. It will be a unique experience that I look forward to sharing to the world.

I've been trying to grow and reach people with my art for about a decade and hope to turn my fortune around as life has been unkind to me over the years. I just want to be able to take care of myself while I pour into my passions.

On top of being an artist, I'm also a gamer and enjoy games such as Overwatch, Warframe, and horror games. My twitch will be available in the linktree below.

Currently, I'm not able to monetize my content quite yet, so I'm relying on the kindness of the community that supports me. I have a tip jar also available in my linktree where you can support me monetarily. Any amount helps.

Why does this political video look like a video game… and why it worries me

Guys, this is the video that gamifies the war posted on the white house's official account on X. It's not just bad taste, it's propaganda. The American government's goal is to normalize the war by exploiting the social and video game aesthetic, making it light and playful.

Thus, it alters people's perceptions, making them insensitive to such devastation. This erodes, indeed destroys, the culture of nonviolence, and therefore those in government will no longer have opposition to it. If people are insensitive, the government will be able to impose its unfiltered, forceless worldview, because citizens already accept it.

With insensitivity, you reduce resistance to conflict, making it the primary solution to problems. This makes war, in people's eyes, the only viable way to change a problematic situation. It's frightening. Think about it, this way they facilitate the recruitment of young people who, subjected to such propaganda on TV and social media, will associate real war with video games.

Young people are easily manipulated and therefore risk dehumanizing the enemy, losing empathy for their victims, who will become merely a digital target transposed into reality. It's a very serious manipulation of the narrative by Trump's staff, gradually shifting the bar toward authoritarianism, but not the classic authoritarianism we've become accustomed to in the past, but a more subtle and manipulative version. This is dangerous, and I'm deeply disgusted.

I'm curious to know what you think.

Emotional Walls Your Character Has Built (And What Might Finally Break Them)

(How your character defends their soft core and what could shatter it) Because protection becomes prison real fast.

✶ Sarcasm as armor. (Break it with someone who laughs gently, not mockingly.) ✶ Hyper-independence. (Break it with someone who shows up even when they’re told not to.) ✶ Stoicism. (Break it with a safe space to fall apart.) ✶ Flirting to avoid intimacy. (Break it with real vulnerability they didn’t see coming.) ✶ Ghosting everyone. (Break it with someone who won’t take silence as an answer.) ✶ Lying for convenience. (Break it with someone who sees through them but stays anyway.) ✶ Avoiding touch. (Break it with accidental, gentle contact that feels like home.) ✶ Oversharing meaningless things to hide real depth. (Break it with someone who asks the second question.) ✶ Overworking. (Break it with forced stillness and the terrifying sound of their own thoughts.) ✶ Pretending not to care. (Break it with a loss they can’t fake their way through.) ✶ Avoiding mirrors. (Break it with a quiet compliment that hits too hard.) ✶ Turning every conversation into a joke. (Break it with someone who doesn’t laugh.) ✶ Being everyone’s helper. (Break it when someone asks what they need, and waits for an answer.) ✶ Constantly saying “I’m fine.” (Break it when they finally scream that they’re not.) ✶ Running. Always running. (Break it with someone who doesn’t chase, but doesn’t leave, either.) ✶ Intellectualizing every feeling. (Break it with raw, messy emotion they can’t logic away.) ✶ Trying to be the strong one. (Break it when someone sees the weight they’re carrying, and offers to help.) ✶ Hiding behind success. (Break it when they succeed and still feel empty.) ✶ Avoiding conflict at all costs. (Break it when silence causes more pain than the truth.) ✶ Focusing on everyone else’s healing but their own. (Break it when they hit emotional burnout.)

5 Tiny Writing Tips That Aren’t Talked About Enough (but work for me)

These are some lowkey underrated tips I’ve seen floating around writing communities — the kind that don’t get flashy attention but seriously changed how I write.

1. Put “he/she/they” at the start of the sentence less often.

Try switching up your sentence rhythm. Instead of

“She walked to the window,”

try

“The window creaked open under her touch.”

Keeps it fresh and stops the paragraph from sounding like a checklist.

2. Don’t describe everything — describe what matters.

Instead of listing every detail in a room, pick 2–3 objects that say something.

“A half-drunk mug of tea and a knife on the table”

sets a way stronger tone than

“There was a wooden table, two chairs, and a shelf.”

3. Use beats instead of dialogue tags sometimes.

Instead of:

"I'm fine," she said.

Try:

"I'm fine." She wiped her hands on her skirt.

It helps shows emotion, and movement.

4. Write your first draft like no one will ever read it.

No pressure. No perfection. Just vibes. The point of draft one is to exist. Let it be messy and weird — future you will thank you for at least something to edit.

5. When stuck, ask: “What’s the most fun thing that could happen next?”

Not logical. Not realistic. FUN. It doesn’t have to stay — but chasing excitement can blast through writer’s block and give you ideas you actually want to write.

What’s a tip that unexpectedly helped with your writing? Let me know!! 🍒

I might just be fucking stupid but it just hit me that I don't NEED my laptop to write my stories. I don't NEED to sit down on my bed or kitchen table and stare at my keyboard trying to make it type on its own. I can open the WIP on my phone and do it there. I have free will. There is nothing stopping me. There is no right or wrong way to write

As someone who lost the use of his right arm last year, I felt this. It's been saddening not being able to write like I used to.
