MAGA - Make AKF Great Again

Just about a year ago, I had closed AKF for good. At that point in my life, I was busy making many changes in my life, and wanted to get rid of anything from the past in order to move forward. I prematurely opened the blog back up earlier in the year, not ready to fully return. I have done a lot in the past year, and needed that time off in order to change my life for the better.





The first of the big changes is changing my job and moving to a new city across the country. I was miserable at my last job (I worked too much and I traveled too much, thus I had no life for two years and it impacted my health negatively). I found a much better job for me (overtime is concentrated to one part of the year, and I get paid overtime for actually working overtime, or can use that as extra vacation, which I will since there's plenty of places I want to visit.) I don't have to travel all of the time, so that means I get to stay in Raleigh, which is an awesome city.

The second is relationships. I documented that when I returned earlier in the year. I bought the cultural narrative that you can only be truly happy if you're in a relationship. I learned how wrong that lie was. I even went out on several dates with another girl and found out personally have shitty taste when it comes to dating women. I always went for the ones who were attractive and ignored everything else hoping it would work out. Just stay away from the crazies. Also, for the younger readers, listen to your parents when they talk shit about who you're dating. They're usually right. For now, while I'm enjoying the single life again, I'll just have to fap to Irene's ass. I know I'll find some girl whose craziness I can tolerate one day.

There are many days where I want to be Irene's butt plug.

Thirdly, and the biggest change in my life by far, is finding my mom again after 24 years. I could probably write a whole book about that, so I'll pass on that.

Fourth, I'm (hopefully) done taking the CPA exams. That was eating up all of my time the second half of the year, which is why I wasn't writing at all. I get the results next week and I'm just praying that I am done studying forever.

Lastly, and most importantly to the AKF audience, my depression is mostly gone. I actually enjoy things again, which means I'll actually enjoy writing again. It was a major chore to me in 2016 and I wasn't enjoying it at all.

HYSF has rejoined (he posted the A Pink review last month), though he'll be posting sporadically. He didn't like having to run the site and just prefers to post here and there. I don't know if any of the former authors will rejoin or if I'll hire new authors. For now, I just want to have fun and post again.
