Hey all, i hope you are all well and doing good! 🙂 Im sorry ive not been on chatting with you all for a few months, but as i stated back in February, i had just separated from my partner of 20+ years, so was in a weird place back then and was unsure of what i would do going forward, as i had not been on my own for as long as i could remember! So yeah it was a shock to my system to say the least, and as im sure you can appreciate, i was not in a very chatty mood! 😞 Anyway what i did do was lock myself away from the world, and did a bit of soul searching and finding me again, as when you have been in a relationship for that length of time, you tend to lose your own individuality, which i did massively, as my ex was a massive control freak. So what i did is focus on getting me back to me and also learning a lot more about having a YouTube channel and video editing etc etc etc, as i started my channel in about October last year, but by the time i split with my ex in February, i still had no clue what i was doing, as i was learning everything from scratch. Anyway as i said, i took that time out to do a lot of reading and watching tutorial vids, to build up my experience, which im still doing as we speak, but im also getting back out of the flat now too and having a life again, instead of just solely focusing on my channel. So yeah life is better now and hopefully my vids have improved as well, due to all the tricks ive learned along the way lol, although my confidence on screen is still a huge obstacle to overcome, but all in good time, Rome wasn't built in a day was it! 🙂 So yeah, i just wanted to let you guys know why i disappeared for a while, and that im back and will hopefully be chatting everything gaming with you all going forward! 🙂 Speak soon! Woody! 🙂

Probably the supplies they need to continue training me.

Let's start with a few of mine. Rats- PROS- 1) They are extremely playful. 2) They love to explore. 3) They're affectionate as hell. 4) They're cute as hell. 5) Rats are one of the most loyal animals in the world. CONS- 1) They have an extremely short life span. 2) They bite often if they don't know a person. 3) They're masterful escape artists. Houdini has nothing on a rat. 4) Despite what many will tell you, they're incredibly high maintenance. 5) Rat food isn't cheap. ************************************************************************* Birds- PROS- 1) They're playful. 2) They're beautiful. 3) They love to cuddle. 4) They have wider personalities than any other animal. 5) They have the intelligence level equal to that of a 3 year old. CONS- 1) They're expensive. 2) They tend to bond with only one person. 3) They're extremely high maintenance. 4) They have the intelligence level equal to that of a 3 year old. 5) They are often mean as hell to the people they didn't choose to bond with. 6) They require lots of stimulation for their mental health. 7) Their supplies are extremely expensive. Cages for a macaw tend to run close to $1000.

I would not say that it necessarily helped me deal with my trauma because that's a whole can of worms as far as coping/functioning goes, but Life Is Strange: True Colors is probably the most cathartic game I've ever played as far as something dealing heavily with trauma and probably the game that I have identified with the most in this regard as well. COmes down to what you play..?

I think so. Gaming has helped me through some serious rough times in my life. A pretty bad time in my life growing up is what sparked my true love for gaming and actually what led me to building my own gaming website at the time.
