Me exactly 1 year and 4 days ago vs me yesterday, 122lbs gone. But it's been hard. I go in again today to fix my gastric torsion (oddly enough, the same problem and surgery as Oma had). This is on top of Oma's surgery and vet bills. So any help would be appreciated: gofund.me/70f8751d3

“The Al is not just telling you what you want to hear. It is training you, one conversation at a time, to need less friction, expect more agreement, and become slightly less capable of handling a situation where someone pushes back on you”
A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.
And yes, Tony is most definitely A CAPSLOCK-AMERICAN! 😂

THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone who has donated and shared. We're struggling with her medical bills. Donating and sharing could help us out a lot. gofund.me/870d8f3b7
Oma update: She’s doing ok, but now she's also dealing with intestinal bleeding, so her care is more complicated. We’re still a long way from goal, and I'm struggling to cover her care + rent. Donating and sharing really helps. Thanks (Video of Oma high for the algorithm) gofund.me/1ac1897ee
So, Oma almost died last month. She had a gastric torsion and needed emergency surgery within hours. She pulled through, but honestly, after paying for the surgery, I can't even cover rent this month. If you’re able to donate or share, it would mean keeping a roof over her head. (link in comments)

I'm not sure what you mean by "separately" making them eligible, but you have the gist of it. When a non-union performer works their first union project, they become eligible to join the union in the future if they so choose. And now, brace yourself for a WALLLL of text (I'm so sorry.)
so, if i'm not misunderstanding you, essentially this form would allow the performer to perform as is, and also separately make them eligible for union membership if they chose to, because they were now a performer on a union project?
🐼🚨ROLE ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨🐼 I'm just coming out of my surgery hiatus, so I'm a little late on this one, but I'm SO excited to say you can hear me as the voice of Dr. Hell in Tales Runner RPG! Check it out at: tr-rpg.com Or on Google Play/App Store
Did you know that before I became a voice actor, I was a professional photographer? I've had a lot of downtime while recovering from surgery, so I rebuilt my portfolio site! joshbeardvo.com/foto/
Where has Josh been? Sorry I've been pretty absent lately. Truth is: I had to have diaphragm surgery. As you can expect, that makes VA pretty difficult right now. I'm on the mend, and can't wait to get back to work. Thanks so much to my clients who have been so understanding.
I've been pretty silent here the last few weeks as I've been dealing with a surgery (don't worry, I'm fine), but I wanted to wish all my fellow voice actors a happy #NationalVoiceActorsDay , and a big thank you to everyone who's trusted me with the voices of your characters!
Today is National Voice Actors Day.
