I love painting colorful skies like this. It’s a mind cleanser. Painting is a time for me to be alone under the spell of the brush. It’s easy to mentally escape into the places that I’m painting. I hope you enjoy the results as much as I enjoyed painting it.

While Amazon is investing billions of dollars to expand AI, independent bookstores are hosting community events, personally recommending books to readers, and providing a space that is safe and welcoming during a time when we need them most.
Never underestimate the power of a local bookstore.

nothing can put a bigger smile on my face than reading that Microsoft has to scale back its AI ambitions because NOBODY uses copilot.

Remember corporate democrats did this because of their rich donors. The rich want us to spend money during the festivities. We need to do the opposite. Buy from small businesses, resellers, thrift stores, swap gifts, or make it yourself, but don't buy from big corporations.

This is by far one of the stupidest things you can do in a dev cycle
So they're going to do this for one, maybe two games. It'll be full speed ahead until it's 6 months from release and the game is falling apart, at which point they'll pay an insane overtime rate for a QA studio to do it last minute which won't be enough.

Making my @rollingstone.com debut writing about Monolith's incredible F.E.A.R. and how the story's meaning has kind of gotten lost over the years.
Alma isn't F.E.A.R.'s villain. Armacham and the people that made her are. She's as much a victim as anyone else, a spirit of vengeance made, not born.

A @rollingstone.com Halloween special: writer @edgarallanbro.bsky.social looks back at #FEAR, the 2005 horror game whose famous monster has been totally misunderstood for 20 years. It's a great read.

I reviewed Bounty Star for @ign.com. It is the most personal review I've written in a long time (maybe ever) and I'm very proud of it. It would mean a lot to me if you read it.
Full disclosure: I talk about being suicidal for two years in the opening because I had to. This one hit me pretty hard.
