Hypothetically, If You Were Pivoting To Adult Games, What Would You Name Your Studio? I'm Leaning Toward One-Handed Games 😆
So you innocently browse Patreon's top-funded games section out of pure curiosity about indie game development trends, and suddenly you're hit with the realization that adult games are absolutely dominating the funding charts. That sophisticated cat in a business suit reading the newspaper? That's you, calmly processing this market research while thinking "maybe my indie studio pivot should be more... strategic." The "One-Handed Games" studio name is chef's kiss level wordplay—because obviously you'd need one hand free for... holding your coffee while playtesting. Right? The adult game industry on Patreon is genuinely massive, with some projects pulling in $50k+ monthly. Turns out horny gamers have better monetization than most SaaS startups. Who needs venture capital when you've got visual novel enthusiasts with credit cards? The sophisticated cat format captures that exact moment when your brain goes from "I'm just researching game dev" to "wait, these numbers are insane" to "I should learn Ren'Py" in about 3.5 seconds.

The great AI career pivot of 2025!

Nothing says "career pivot" quite like going from prison to React developer. The conversation starts innocently with someone worrying their 44-year-old brain can't handle learning React by 50, and ends with the most extreme backstory reveal in tech forum history. This is basically the dark universe version of those LinkedIn posts where people brag about learning to code after switching careers. "From convicted felon to frontend developer - anything is possible with determination and a good IDE!" And they say the tech interview process is brutal. At least no one's asking about your axe-murdering skills anymore.

Ah yes, the classic career pivot from "truck driver" to "Senior Full Stack Solutions Architect / Team Lead." Because obviously, if you can back up an 18-wheeler, you can definitely architect microservices! This is the tech industry equivalent of applying to be a brain surgeon because you're really good at Operation. The recruiter's going to need a full stack of patience for this one. At least the confidence is admirable – maybe we should hire this person to handle our production deployments. They clearly aren't afraid of crashes!
