He/Him

I'd like to preface this by saying; Yes, I'm a survivor. I played runescape over 15 years. I remember running the mile in middle school and distracting myself from the pain thinking about how much rune ess I needed to mine to afford a rune set. I remember trying to make sure no one knew I still played in highschool and then seeing swiftkit on my friends desktop and him inviting me into his clan. I remember the painful downfall of rs2 and the rekindling of lost love with oldschool. I remember trying to study in college and grind slay levels at the same time. I remember afking on mobile at my first job in my career after I got my degree. I remember not having a job for 6 months at the start of the pandemic and grinding like no ones business. And then, well, quite frankly, I was over it. I got bored and I stopped playing. Its been a few months now and I have to say I'm so much more content with life. Not having to worry about farm runs or xp waste. It's such a relief. Watching tv shows or movies and actually completely paying attention. It's been years since I can remember doing that. I've been playing video games that feel like they just came out, but they were released 10 years ago. Great vivid graphics and immersion that I had been missing out on for so long. Im fine with going to bed at a decent hour and not worrying about finishing my slay task first. It's a whole new world and it feels good to be free...but anyways, I just bought a bond.
