#post: starter.

Crazy how time flies, because I know the last time I made a post on here was before a whole lockdown and Halloween had passed, and now I'm sitting here like, oh yeah, this place actually exists to make posts and stuff. Anyway, how's it hanging? How's it going for everyone? Anything exciting happening in everyone's lives? I gotta say, everyone looked fucking awesome last night. I'm so obsessed with all of you, you're all perfect. Oh, and in some kind of fun news, I kind of got a pretty serious e-mail talking about possibly getting Mindscapes off of YouTube and on actual television. I don't know if I'm gonna follow through with it yet, but it's still exciting. Like, little 'ol me? Mindscapes? People want that on their big screens? (Not to be confused with the movie theater, I don't think I'm that cool yet.) Anyway, just thought I'd share that tidbit because when I got the e-mail I did a little jig that was absolutely embarrassing.

What the fuck is up, PSU? Not gonna lie, they gave me the info for this site when I got accepted and I completely forgot about until now. Feels weird being twenty-eight and a Freshman. My classes are filled with eighteen year olds and I'm freaked the fuck out. They're all looking at me like I'm an old man. Me? This pretty face? Please. Speaking of this pretty face, name's Nate. Who wants to show me around campus? Or better yet, tell me the ins and outs of what it's like here. What's the go to bar for the students? The cafe on campus suck? Etc.

you know what's painful? i've already seen deadpool & wolverine twice now, and i can't come on here and talk about the movie at all because spoilers, sweetie! there's so many things i want to scream about. i actually want to scream about the whole movie. but nope! i've had to distract myself by playing video games so i don't text everyone spoilers. tonight, it's been dead by daylight. i've been cursed by going against only stealth killers, and i think i might end up having a heart attack tonight. pray for me, pls.

also, hi. taylor lily chang. you can call me taylor. or tay's fine too. i don't really care. 32, she/her, game development professor @ psu and i also like to develop my own games in my spare time. i'm also a mom to the actual coolest nine year in the world, eric. i'm obsessed with video games, marvel comics & movies (obv bc i'm bitching about d&w). i've also got a serious gummy worm addiction. tell me one thing about you that's completely random and doesn't even define who you are. i like random shit, thanks.

Okay, listen up! We need to talk about Wade Wilson. No, not Deadpool. The real guy named Wade Wilson. First off, this is a real man who did really bad things. And you know what people are doing? Can you guys guess what they're doing? They're romanticizing him. Actually, they're going farther than that - they're thirsting over him, and sad that he's getting the death penalty (let's all cheer for that one, honestly). What the fuck is up with that? These are the people who are romanticizing Jeffrey Dahmer (because Evan Peters played him, big whoop, don't get me started on making dramatized adaptions of this shit when families of victims are still fucking alive) and Ted Bundy (again, because they hired some hot actor to play him, which yes I know that he was "handsome" ((was he really though?)) but still, what the fuck?). My original point: serial killers are not hot. You would not think this serial killer is hot if you become their next victim. And to top it all off, there's an author out there who is quite literally marketing her book based off of this sick fuck Wade Wilson, and people are gagged over it. GAGGED. IT'S WORKING. I understand serial killer's psyche more than the normal person's, but I just want to know what's going on in these people's mind. I have a lot of grace for people, but.. not these sick fucks.

Anyway, now that I got that word vomit out of the way. Casey Sylvester, aka The Baby Sylvester (sorry Robin the title still belongs to me xoxo). You probably know who I am, or at least that I exist in this world, so hello. Is there anything that pisses you off like this pisses me off? Let me know and we can be angry together.

Read somewhere that we're supposed to be doing introductions, or whatever, but I suck at them, so that's not what you're gonna get. The name's Amari Rutherford and that's what's important, let's be real.

Anyway. Kind of annoyed because when I was playing Overwatch 2 earlier, I literally kept dying every two minutes. You know what that is? Fucking embarrassing. Anyway (again), @ everyone: I have a show Friday night, 8PM at The Rendition Room (as always), so be there or be a loser. I don't know, man. It's up to you.

So.. Where to even start? The world has gone to shit and we're all here together. I don't even know what to say about that. I feel like a lot of you are acclimating well, but I'm pretty sure I'm still in panic mode. I feel like Troy in Community, in that one scene. You all know what I'm talking about. Does anyone else feel this way or are we all feeling chill now?

[zachwilde]

Don't know why I wasn't on this corner of the internet already, honestly. Kind of feeling like an old man who doesn't know what's "hip". But I can't be an old man, right? I'm still that eight year old who eats cereal for almost every meal while watching Pokémon all day long. Now my back just kinda hurts when I move the wrong way. No big deal.

Saw a few posts here and there that had some introductions, so I figure I might go ahead and do just that. Zach Wilde, animator of Mindscapes on YouTube. Which, by the way - I think you should watch. It's about people who deal with mental illnesses, but you have superpower for every diagnoses (or undiagnosed, but you feel me) that you have. It's all about still feeling some type of power even though your brain works differently. It's my passion project and even if you watched one episode, I would be a very happy boy. Also tell me if you like it. And please don't tell me if you hate it, I'll probably cry.
