I’m getting completely lost in the sauce with this mix tape project. I kind of want to start a niche tape printing company and run away from the game industry 🫠

A couple days ago I explained to my 6 yr old that my license expired. These were words he’d never heard before so it took some time to explain what that meant. Today he asked me if my license is still rotten 🤭
Do people with good posture just wake up with good posture or do they need coffee first?
I made a music video! I had fun experimenting with various wipe effects in DaVinci Resolve and layered a lot, it was so similar to making the song actually. It gave me more ideas for future videos. (Sorry it’s so quiet, I still haven’t figured that out 😅) youtu.be/MRadbiMVUpo?...

we're doing an additional interview podcast every week now. For my first, I talked to @jasonschreier.bsky.social about how and why the video game business has changed so much in recent years www.404media.co/the-video-ga...

Video games are more popular than ever, but many of the biggest companies in the business seem like they are struggling to adapt and convert that popularity into stability and sustainability.
