Hi! I have two orders that were supposed to go out IN JUNE and I set them on my bookshelf, then, well, they are still on my bookshelf. I am dropping them off tomorrow at the post office myself with updated tracking, and if you left your email I'll send that tracking number too <3

I just keep thinking of the small bit of Destiny lore that is engraved into my wedding band. "& the rest of my life began" The Last Word's story is dark, but that one part of that one line brought me so me so much hope over the years, whispered to myself anytime something changed my path.

I haven't gotten in there yet, I don't wanna cry yet, but does anyone know if I am still in the credits on D2? I think I still have a screenshot, but I can't find it and I wanted to print it out <3

After confirming 3 times that they didn't make a mistake, I am officially vending at the Seattle Pride Parade <3 I will have all my hand made makes (fiber arts, resin/painting, embroidery, etc) and things and I might pee I am so nervous... What if they hate it all?

I got the first two hospital bills in from this weekend and I might actually throw up.... $5000 for a private room you made me stay in overnight for protocol and didn't ask me anything about? Are you serious? I would have slept in the hall y'all...

My life changed because of this game, I found my love, I moved across the country, I worked at my dream company, and through it all, I always had hope things would work out. I’m really sad, which actually shocks me, but I’m downloading to let my warlock go out with a bang, she deserves it. 🫶🏻

I just finished arc reading a book called Level Up for Love and omggggggg. It's a dual pov, split between a second chance rivals to lovers video game designer romance and their D&D campaign, AND IT'S NOT CRINGY! I am still swooning.. Roll for Romance is out already and Level Up comes out in Sept!

A little wonky, but I am making "worry worms" (and wonky frogs) for Sean to bring to his coffee shop to give out to pals that may need a smile that day. I wrote a little note to go with them just to remind them they are loved <3

A pink and yellow crocheted "worm" with yellow googly eyes and a star shaped keychain attached to it with a small white paper note that says "Here is your worry worm. Tell the worm your worries and let your worm hold them for you." A pink and yellow crocheted "worm" with yellow googly eyes and a star shaped keychain attached to it with a small white paper note that says "Reminder: You are loved. You are worthy of love. You are deserving of love. You are wanted. You are important. You are strong. You are brave. Xoxo Sam Bartley Designs

My pals made a group chat called "squish sam's face" where they are planning a trip to come see me and brb I am a damn messssss right now 🥹🥹🥹

Hey, hi pals. I had to take Ikora to the emergency vet yesterday and we found out she has a severe heart murmur and pretty intense osteoarthritis. We got her medicine and her shot, but she needs an echo and blood work to treat her heart.. I'm just really sad.. This is my girl.. And she's sick..

Something I learned about working in gaming specifically, many people are "here for you", until you reach out, and then *poof*, gone. But they still comment and interact with your posts... People are freaking weird. If I say I am "here for you", I've already recommended you, probably a lot...

Someone I really looked up to once told me straight to my face: "You're not community manager material. If I'm being honest, you're just not made for it." Yesterday, I shipped my first major mobile game update as the sole community manager for my studio. 1/3

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who made these achievements possible! Lots of stuff still left to do in this 10th year of content creation, but I am exceptionally proud of my community for supporting such wonderful causes! Thank you @tiltify.com for the recognition! Here's to more good work ahead!
