Unreal: got to play guitar with Hollerado!
Right time, right place, and luckily I learned the 'Juliette' riff like 15 years ago as a young lad.
At the Horseshoe Tavern no less! Same stage that the Stones, the Police, Talking Heads, Pixies, BNL and more have played!

This is so real. Human error has become more charming than ever.
the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

Last week I basically got off the plane from Japan (vacation) and headed straight to London for QTCC finale. Then it was Devstream madness on Friday.
So today feels like my first REAL work day! And I must say: it was a lovely day! Great game, great team, great community.

I think I'm too Shonen Dragon Ball brained to be sad about the Jays' World Series loss.
Goku lost the first two World Martial Arts Tournaments! Master Roshi taught him that losing shouldn't be anything but inspiration to do better next time. There's always room to grow!
We should be giga proud!!

Had a perfect 3 week holiday in Tokyo!
Now catching up on all things Warframe. Pretty lucky I enjoy my job so much that I don't have to dread that 'back to work' feeling after a long vacation :]

Very excited about my new job title: COMMUNITY PROJECT MANAGER at Digital Extremes!
Community Management is still a (relatively) new discipline. I'm very proud to be part of the DE team as we flesh out what community work can entail. Both for us, and for others!

Genuinely the best advice for creative work. The 'golden rule' equivalent of making art.
A good idea is nothing. A bad first draft EXISTS. There is something to touch up, refine, polish!
You don't have to share the bad thing immediately. Wait until it's good. But make it! Make it! Make it!
