Ohhhhhhhhh, I can so relate, buddy.

When people ask me where to start with worldbuilding, I tell them it's like standing in a hallway, with a dozen closed doors.

....pick one.

It can be anything, just pick one and open the door. You'll find yourself in another hall with a dozen doors.

Pick another door. Any door.

....follow that process, enjoy the ride, because eventually you'll find yourself in a hallway with one....or more...doors open.

It will all connect, and you do NOT have to force it.

That, to me, is worldbuilding.

Exactly! In a way, it's like the best amusement part ride ever!
