Over a founder's dead body is exactly how companies go to hell. Which is why the founder was necessary to create it. A founder is necessarily non-conformist.

It's almost like some kind of conformity.

Well, watch again cause you didn't learn the lesson. Learning a lesson can take many tries.

Dude, I quit my game design career just to make money to make the games I wanted. It was a many year detour.

@Thought Art Some Owen Cook videos would be good for you. You are lacking that Stage Orange fire in your belly.

@Thought Art Meaning comes from doing hard things. If it was easy it would be meaningless, like AI slop music. It is worthless. Maybe become a real estate agent. It is easy work and the pay is good. Don't quit so easily.

Combination of corruption and just burn out. You can't milk the same cow forever. The Simpsons should have died decades ago. But those corrupt and creatively bankrupt executives want their $$$.

Dude, this is like the reality for 98% of humans. You can't just immediately do fun stuff. You have to build it first. I had to grind my ass for years just to grind my ass on my passion. You don't appreciate how hard musicians gotta work to reach their positions. Everything good in life take enormous work.

It is not sad, it is part of the challenge of life. A caveman cannot just paint all day, he has to hunt first. No one is just born an artist, you have to build it out over decades. Don't feel bad about that. It's a long-term project. There is nothing wrong with finding a high-paying job. It can be fun too. Spend a few years mastering how to make money. It will be good for you. You need to look for ways to make your life more enjoyable.

What you do then is make money so you can one day work on your passions or art. Rarely can you work full time on your art immediately. Usually you have to buy that prevelige with work. You can find high-paying work so you save more money faster.

But in my expereince American girls are plenty feminine. I never had a lack of feminity there. Maybe the opposite.

Not submissive per se, but living in a female role and expecting her man to play the classic male role. More "traditional". A lot of this is about the roles we play, which are highly socially influenced. For example I have heard my pickup friends talk about how Asian girls are more about taking care of her man. As that is part of the culture. Whereas American girls will be more into having a career.

Daily or near daily would be chronic. Once a week is fine. But if the trips are serious you need more time to integrate than a week. 30 day retreat gets dangerous. I don't recommend it. Your options would be quite limited to chems with no tolerance.

Less is more, comes to mind here. You don't really know what any supplement does to your health. Could be negative in ways you don't even feel. But then you are paying thousands just to gamble that it is doing more good than harm.
