Composer/illustrator/game developer. I helped make Club Penguin.

I hope you will bear with a little of my foolishness, but you are already doing that. 2 Cor 11:1

This is phenomenal advice. Yes, for game developers, but the principles are applicable to other creative projects too.

I'm starting something new on January 1st. (Not a New Year's Resolution, just a different kind of YouTube video for me.)

That second picture with the small caves... I've been there many times. I lived in that neighborhood for a number of years. There's a large boulder at the base of the path that leads down there... every time I walked that trail I made a point to sit on that rock.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Ah, OK.

That is better. Thank you.

For the first time ever, I watched The Nightmare Before Christmas last night.

I'm sorry, fans... I think it's overrated.

The movie has tremendous amounts of style, visual creativity, and good songs. But I found hardly any substance in it. I just didn't care about any of the characters (even Jack).

That answer ignores the social dynamics of a virtual world.

That's a great answer.

Cheating in a multiplayer space, even for cosmetic items, creates an undesirable social dynamic, harming the experience of players who got those items legitimately and those who can't get them at all.

It's Club Penguin's 20th anniversary. Words can't express how grateful I am to have been part of it.

But words can try. Today's Club Penguin video is going to have a lot of memories: youtu.be/ULjO6yaRAgM

You know, the Internet might be a shadow of the hopeful, optimistic place it felt like in decades past, but at least there are fewer pop-up ads.

I'm working on a new video for Friday! (This week marks the 20th anniversary of Club Penguin. Yes, really.) 🐧
