What's Bothering You?

My closest friend from elementary school has been showing up all over the news. He's facing a long prison sentence. As his trial is close I guess I'm going to be seeing more and more of it.

It's quite disturbing so I'm not going to mention what he did. (Because it's really gross).

Each time I see his face and name I get a cold chill. I get these vivid flashbacks from us eating lunch together and playing outside. That's my memory of him. I can't wrap my head around him being this monster.

Man, what happened 😔
 
I still have a long way to go before I get to where I want to be in my life, it's so exhausting 😮‍💨

I'm not one of those "I wish I could go to sleep and wake up and be where I want to be" kind of people, I want to work hard for my goals. but I don't know, a breather would be nice.
 
I knew I shouldn’t get my hopes up but I still can’t help being sad I didn’t get nominated & some people got nominated more than once. They all deserve it, but still can’t help feeling sad. Part of the reason I have been discouraged from participating in events is because a lot of times the same people win. I hate feeling this way and know I should keep trying and not get discouraged but Idk,

Edit: Please do not reply.

I feel you. 🫂 The same happened to my contest entries and I was disappointed too, but I made sure to lower my expectations once the polls went up. Setting your expectations high will lead to issues when things don't go your way. I've learned this the hard way before.

But don't go too hard on yourself! I'm sure people enjoyed your entries. My favorite one you made is your Magnificent Memories drawing! And I understand how unfair it can be for the same people to win the events, but if it's any consolation it's not always like that. Just keep at it and you'll get there. Don't give up! You gotta believe! 💜

I’ve been here for 9 years lol. It’s easier said than done lol.

Thanks. It’s hard to be optimistic when I haven’t won anything in the years I’ve participated.
 
Will Nintendo ever add Donkey Kong 64 to Nintendo Switch Online? I’ve been waiting for three years, and they still didn’t add it. I know it’s important to be patient, but with Nintendo being consistent with poor decisions on retro gaming, it’s not worth being patient. Because it’s not about when they’ll release it to NSO, but rather if they’ll release it to NSO. It didn’t help that they prioritized obscure third-party titles over popular first-party titles. What is Nintendo’s aversion to uploading DK64?
 
There are a lot of wonderful artists on here. I can't say for certain if the same members get nominated/win as I've never bothered to gather results from previous events. I've known members commented on this and it was a very big issue during the Christmas event where it all came undone. I am sure events where it's not decided on staff favorites have an disadvantage with favoritism and those voting for their friends/popular members.

Which if that is the case for some members votes, you are cheapening the event by doing it that way. There isn't any way to not sugar coat that. I think everyone's entries have been amazing. But again, if it is true that the same members get nominated a lot and it is due to favoritism to an extent, then I don't know how we could even possibly remedy that.

Which is why I loved the Canvas Crossing event so much. We need more events like that. That come from the heart and gifting others. I hope this type of task isn't a one and done thing. We need more of that wholesomeness in TBT. It was my favorite event by far. I've never been nominated for anything and I really don't care if I ever will be, but events like this are great because it includes everyone.

definitely agree, I really enjoyed the Canvas Crossing event and I think it's nice to give everyone a chance to shine with an event like that 💗
