My PC contains most of my life’s work. It is in storage at Pods along with everything else I own. Obviously, I cannot stream. I have no source of revenue. What you can do: Help me sell my screenplays. My number is 407-755-8550. My PayPal is toresimonsen@gmail.com My zenfolio is here: https://toresimonsen.zenfolio.com/p11917117?customize=3&fbclid=IwY2xjawJUqd1leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHQvdwcAwBKQw1Q26S3j3tcQrQ1pGY_ATCtJvJm_2jW5TuEaV2JtJ09R9MA_aem_FWRBmPdbzylhXDU9sSKBsQ Sales from zenfolio deposit in my mother’s account. This is also true for my book on Amazon, “On the Way “by Tore Simonsen. Follow me on Instagram.

 Playing games in real life with friends is fun.  Make sure you bring cookies. At the moment my Magic collection with over 12,000 cards is in storage. I planned to unpack my collection with my other belongings by now. 

I met Kevin Pereira of G4tv at Comicon in 2010. He was friendly and wished me “Good luck in saving tv”.  Unfortunately, the only thing that needs saving is me these days.   

Many of my books are in storage. This includes my ROG books which include rare and hard to find books. Books like Blood of Heroes are impossible to obtain. My plan was to relocate. I sold my mother's house with the plan to buy a new one. Obviously, it makes no sense that I would sell a house and risk everything I owned and put myself on the streets. Unfortunately,I need money now in large enough sums to stabilize. Gaming is a lifestyle choice. I have been gaming all my life. I survived the satanic panic. I endured the Mortal Kombat rating debacle. I lived through the blame Doom era. I watched games grow from a hobby for nerds to a mainstream activity. We went from two colors to millions. Gaming is worth billions and provides a living to 330,000 people directly and more indirectly. I need help to survive this treachery. <a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczNbcZaJi8v3u0pP2EOTNTbXVCc88w2ktcdV0X0_9GbI0aPwP5LdmKodrLPxv0bDsQXaZ1CoFhi3AEoLSjur5S6zh3EkIpm7...

The steam winter sale will be a lost opportunity for me this year because I unexpectedly became homeless.

  IN January 2010 at Branch 3 of Catholic Charities, the homeless gathered to play Madden on a PlayStation. 

I spent two nights in the so-called open air shelter. The shelter provides mylar blankes and little more. There are minimal resources at the Courtyard. I personally feel the mylar blankets are too small to cover someone and are environmentally unsound. The system refuses to provide dignity to the people it serves. Workers are polite, but they have no real resources for assisting people. There is pressure to push people into mental health systems even though they do not need them. The idea that homeless people are mentally ill is a common propaganda designed to reassure the public that homelessness is justified. My charity of choice was Habitat for Humanity since they built houses, but thee shelters are an affront to civilization. I urge elected officials to spend a week in them to familiarize themselves with the conditions. Ultimately, I believe they would defend these efforts and try a new approach. The homeless themselves are free to organize and block roads that provide the ingr...

Unfortunate series of events. I went down to Los Angeles to network. Sold the house in Florida. Was supposed to make a family connection in Vegas. Flew directly from L.A. to Las Vegas, but missed my family connection. I went partying on the first night with a bunch of rock stars at the Virgin instead of checking into the hotel I booked. My cellphone was stolen at the Horseshoe. Somewhere between the Sphere and the Wynn, my wallet was also lost or stolen. I've tried lost and found and filed a police report and checked with a lot of lost and founds. Anyway, without I.D. or a phone things were set to be difficult for me. I was holding out for meeting up with the family as planned in Las Vegas and figured I could get by for a few nights, but they never showed up. Most of my sources of potential income are routed through my family's bank account (proceeds from sales of art/photography/writing). Only my streaming was set to deposit in my account. Lost access to all the credit cards a...

My three tips from last night went to different people. The first person I tipped a dollar to was a contortionist who had a bicycle with a sign that said, "Never give up hope." Without access to significant funds, I gave them a buck for luck. The second person I tipped last night was a pregnant homeless woman. She was seven months pregnant and did not have an indoor shelter to stay at. She does not qualify for family housing. I gave her a buck for luck. The third person I tipped last night was a magician. I appreciate magic and enjoyed the demonstration. I give him a buck for luck. Those were the bets I placed last night.

In A New Hope, R2D2 is tasked with delivering the plans to destroy the Death Star. His role is critical to the rebels. Han Solo is a rogue. The lure of money brings Han Solo into contact with the rebellion. Han Solo does not initially join the rebels in the attack on the death star. He shows up just in time after the attack is well under way.

My “homeless” situation is the result of several mistakes on my part and malevolence on the part of others. What I did wrong was invest in art, photography, gaming, and creative pursuits that are entirely speculative in nature. I am a gambler who rejected the parasitic dull lifestyle offered by banking and insurance. I spent a lot of money and time in fun pursuits. I promoted and supported others. I attended festivals, conventions, gaming nights, and traveled to do so. I spent years taking photographs of wildlife. I invested in cameras and gear. I travelled to exotic locations like the Everglades. I spent years writing and promoting screenplays and other writing. I invested money in pitch decks, writing groups, and promotional material. I traveled to many events and locations to promote my work and connect with others. I spent decades playing games for fun and streamed for a long time. I promoted my stream and invested time and money in it. Recently, I sold my house. I did so withou...

Obviously, I cannot stream when my phone is stolen and I'm living on the streets of Las Vegas. I invested in trying to stream games, write and sell screenplays, take wildlife photographs, and create art. Each project required various expenditures. Now I have nothing but the clothes on my back. My possessions are in storage for now. All my books, magic cards, photographs, computer equipment, and tech gear. My mom is hostage to malignant relatives.

I flew into Las Vegas on November 15. I had big plans. I was supposed to meet my mother in town. We had sold the house and were going to spend some time in a hotel to assess our options. I made the mistake of flying to LA without my mother to promote my screenplays. My plan was to fly in from LA to Las Vegas and meet her. Things go wrong. My mother ends up in SLC. I am in Vegas. Spent the night at the Virgin late into the morning. Never checked in to my hotel. So far the trip is off to a rock and roll start, but things quickly get chaotic. My phone is stolen at the Horseshoe when I left it unattended for one minute. I report it to security, but it is never recovered. Later that night, my wallet disappears. I can no longer check into hotels. I no longer have money. I can't reach anyone because the numbers are lost. Good news. McDonald's opens its doors to me. Once in a while, someone buys me a meal. I stay out late going from Casino to Casino to pass the time. I spend time on ...
