Lights, Camera, Friendship: My year transforming loneliness into indie filmmaking
Lights, Camera, Friendship: My year transforming loneliness into indie filmmaking
At the beginning of this year, I was a burnt out 30 year old millennial with no friends. I was lonely and felt lost in life. I had no purpose and was pretty depressed. In an effort to feel less alone, I went back to school for filmmaking. Writing and directing movies gave me purpose again and transformed my life by giving me a fresh start. I met so many other writers, actors, and filmmakers that helped me grow. For anyone that’s scared to make that change in your life, it’s tough but so worth it.

    If you're a Democrat, please either change your voting habits or go back to California. I used to work in Prescott. That's why they are wary of Californians. If you're not, welcome. Check out Superstition Meadery if you haven't yet. It's amazing! Everything that's wrong with California is the fault of Democrats. It doesn't have to be that way. It wasn't always.

    LA has the WORST traffic. I dread having to go there. Further south can be much better, although not the same as a small town in Arizona. Still, the weather in San Diego is probably the best in the US.

    I´m considering to reduce the work time from 40h/week to about 25. I like to go for a walk in the parks - during the week - because it is not crowded. Same for the pool, supermarket and others. So peaceful. I did it other year and I liked it more than having a full time job.

    I'm at this crossroads now. I live in a small city, and have the option to move to a detached rural house in the countryside, or a city centre apartment in a big city. I would love to take the rural home but am worried what it would mean for my social life. The hope of moving to the big city was to expand it, with the various activities it offers.

    Optimus rlly was a toxic, I remember being a fan of him, realised he always twisted stuff to make things sound way worse and make people look as guilty as possible when they didn't rlly do much wrong, they claim to be against cancel culture yet they are exactly that, the drama channels train people to become part of cancel culture without their knowledge due to their skilled manipulation and gaslighting, they also gaslight you into thinking that if you are not perfect, you are a terrible person or a criminal, and proceed to compare you to genuine disgusting criminals like edp. Hopefully people will realise that people like optimus dont want 'the world to be a safer place' the fact that his whole career and profits are built on the dangerous, chaotic world and the downfall, pain and suffering of others

    I feel like it was fate that this showed up as a recommendation for me to watch. I needed to hear ALL of this right now….as I begin to open my laptop to work this afternoon…on the weekend….again. I pulled 3 all nighters last week and now my hair is falling out in clumps. Yesterday I took a “me” day and felt so guilty. But I do feel rested now. I think I’ll start small and just take these “me” days more often.
