hey folks, whatever happens today. your vote was not wasted. politics as people keep telling me is a marathon, not a sprint. very little politically changes overnight. Each step we take is 1 step. Try to remember than when panicking about results.. one step at a time. one day at a time.
Final Fantasy: Resonance is a goddamn delight. Heartily recommended.
Quick reminder that winter is a time of darkness and ghost stories. Spooky season hasn't left. It is still upon us and will reign until the thaw.
Hey, go vote. If you’re eligible, go vote. Better today than standing in long lines tomorrow. Can’t vote? Volunteer for candidate of choice if that’s an option. Or both, both can be good.
I voted yesterday. Have you? If not, get out and do so, vote like your life and liberty depend on it; because it does. Let’s vote these useless MF’s out. ✌🏾🫡
I've said it before and I'll say it again - morning people are already too powerful. We don't need to give them more morning.
Hey Scottish voice actors! If you're interested in auditioning for this, DM me for the deets!
Attention Scottish voice actors! 🏴🎤 We’re gearing up to cast an upcoming project, which will require an (almost) all Scottish cast! So watch this space, if it’s nae bother.
Do not be the person who is so afraid of doing something wrong that they refuse to try and do anything right. Hammer them in the primaries, work towards the future with a wider range of choices. But when it comes down to the line, choosing your own high road just leads to the meat grinder.
when good people pass, you ask yourself, "how can I be like them? how can I be good?"
not to lib post but im getting really pissed at who's dying and who isn't

So earlier, my brother was watching Octobinz (Romain Toutain)'s livestream on Twitch. He was the Technical Director on Mass Effect Universe, so I wanted to share some bits he discussed. As he speaks french, I added subtitles to make it more accessible for everyone! #MassEffect #MassEffectUniverse
Listen, BC may have made some questionable choices this weekend, but I am heartened to see that Lula won in Brazil and Vucic lost in Serbia.
I've seen a lot of love for Mass Effect and Dragon Age over the last couple days, with good reason. I love both of them very much, and they'll be studied for years to come. But I want to take a second to talk about a different BioWare experience: Playing Jade Empire as a terrible person.

As If For a Historical Novel
Roary Reads Back ten or fifteen years ago, I read several of Dave Gross’s Radovan and the Count novel. Part mystery, part sword and sorcery, all great reads, if you like that sort of thing—wh…

The Wordpress link is toying with me, so here's a direct link to the interview by @janelindskold.bsky.social in 2015. She asks good questions, and re-reading the result gave me a sweet jolt of nostalgia for those earlier novels. janelindskold.wordpress.com/2015/10/28/c...

Night Vale has always been a 100% independent podcast, while most independent podcasts at a similar level have sold to large companies. Being independent has protected us from a lot of the up and down of the industry, but it's also, to be clear, incredibly fucking hard work and annoying
“You can just start your own studio!” Brother I do not WANT to own a business. I don’t want to be anybody’s boss. I want to write, which is the thing i’m good at!!!
There is good in this world, Mr. Frodo.
