AI preys on insecurity. I've fallen victim to it. I used to suck at art and I used image generators like Midjourney originally because I fell into the trap of thinking it could help me make the ideas in my head a visual reality.

Then I had the crazy idea to just...learn how to actually make art?

I'm now open to work and looking for my next role as a Writer or Game Designer in games, now that my contract has ended.

I have worked on the award-nominated Civilization VII, and have many other indie and AA projects where I was responsible for content, systems and production.

Did I get scammed? Someone requested a commission on tumblr from me and after putting in a full order and agreeing on price AND getting my PayPal info they blocked me and disappeared. I’m new to commissions so maybe this is normal if someone changes their mind, but why wouldn’t they just say so?

So Spotify removed my most political podcast episode, The Sacrifice, due to “possible infringement” of a book that was published a year after my episode released and is completely unrelated aside from sharing a title. Apparently I have a Time Machine and did a future plagiarism of a 2 word title!
