Gumroad sure is putting forth a mighty impressive performance here even for how hotly contested the field of absolutely boneheaded AI pushes is An artist's personal store page that you're forced to use an AI agent to edit with no manual editing possible??? Lol, lmao, what the fuck

-IMPORTANT- Gumroad has recently updated their website with the intention of phasing out the ability to manually edit your storefront and allowing you to only edit your storefront via AI agents. I will be dropping gumroad support entirely in the near future. More to come as I sort things out.

Hey folks- if you haven't heard from me and you're supposed to have? Don't be afraid to poke me really hard with a stick or something. Balancing the 40 hour a week job and the creative work has been really fucking hard and I know I've been bad at contacting some folks because of it.

So- got a few irons in the fire right now that I can't say too much about but I can say something. - I'm working on a solo project. It'll happen when it happens. - Cooking up a Twitch thing, with some folks (you can probably guess). - Game #1 is still in production. Life just happens.

Notice: Hi, hello, did you know I do freelance consultancy on ARGs and other transmedia work? Now you do. I can help with... - Editing [dev, line, copy] - Research [ Transdiscpilnary ] - Interviews [ live, Pre-Recorded ] - Writing [ Poetry, Prose, Screen ] - Interactive Design [ Ritual ] [ 1/3 ]🧵

The terror in my gut when I realized, this morning, this is the year I publicly cursed myself into doing the Nightmind Candy bowl. I mean... there isn't a better year for it I guess, but fuck 2024 me. I bet you're amused about this or something.

Anecdote of the day on "breaking news" and how the algorithm is killing context - In the wake of major analog horror adaptation news, a fan (whose handle I'm redacting out of courtesy) made up a tweet about Monument Mythos being picked up by Apple TV. It was likely done as a joke.

I've come to the determination that my avoidance of making art for myself is actually an avoidance of self. I had my reasons... but I've spent enough time getting around to getting around to it. I'm not getting through this next bend by making nothing. Whatever comes, I hope you don't mind.
