Gr*kipedia is inaccurate and dumb...
I'm listed and incorrectly credited to things I had nothing to do with. They flat out made up stuff, without citation, like how worked on @thetruthfiction.bsky.social or Penumbra.
(Great shows - but I didn't)

It's genuine AI Slop and should not be trusted.

If you are working on a TTRPG project, have a friend like @pennylescroche.transtapir.games with you. Because they sometimes remind you not to compromise on your design ideas because it's important to the entire theme.

Me: I'm an immigrant.
Them: When did you immigrate to America?
Me: No, I'm immigrating FROM America.
Them: Like we said.
Me: No, I'm leaving America.
Them: Don't you mean Expat?
Me: No, I am immigrating away FROM America.

Seriously, try googling this. It keeps "correcting" me.

Want to hear some of my best sound design and editing work EVER? This is the episode. Out now, available everywhere, for free. 2 hours of PvP edited down into a 30 minute masterpiece.
8 years of planning has brought us to this moment.
"Roll for Initiative" on an 8 player BRAWL edited to under 30 minutes with a super-soundtrack and killer sound design! (Thank you Nobuo Uematsu!)

Amazing performances by everyone, but special shoutouts to @siwelp.bsky.social and Jeff Goldblum

Gotta say, editing a 2-hour, 8 person, PvP battle and making it entertaining as a podcast will be one of my crowning achievements as an editor if I successfully pull this off.

I'm also really hoping that the final episode hits 25 minutes in length 😅

On Today's "Editing Magic"

I am editing a script where one of the lead actors didn't send me their lines, and hasn't replied to emails/messages in the last month.

... And I am going to steal from every other episode we've recorded to form the sentences I need for Tuesday's release.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Thinking about goals/missions:
Mine is to keep the creative stuff I do as my career.

Yesterday/today I worked from 10:00-16:00, 22:00-5:00, 10:00-Now+.
This is me "on holiday."

Is this unreasonable? Yeah.
Does this need to happen to keep my career alive? Absolutely.
Do I enjoy it? Mostly
And I’m not doing that for you. Your thoughts on *your* mission are your own.
And hey maybe your actual goal IS being in a starter pack or you’re focused exclusively winning a medal.

I think it’s worth thinking about why, and how long that external stuff can sustain you as a creator.

Love u bye

Get this, I took an entire day off yesterday. Not even an email or text for work… First day off to this extent, probably the entire year?

Being a full time creative looks a bit weird, when family points this stuff out.

Surprisingly a super productive week of work so far

I do reply to negative comments on YouTube.

Not all of them, but the ones who I think could actually be fans if they “got it.”

I’d like to think I’m partially responsible for this… spotted in the wild: Baba Yaga vanity plate 🤭

I enjoy what I do.
I still find it odd that I can make a new podcast, put up only a trailer, and the same few burner accounts will give it a 1 star review.

At least they're consistent?
Back to editing...

I could not be more thrilled with our latest release! @brandonboone.bsky.social and @stevenmelin.bsky.social also SLAYED in assembling a creepy orchestral soundtrack! I love everything about this...

...Except my rolling... Dice wise, this is the worst session I have rolled in my entire life.
This week @matthewmercer.bsky.social joins us on Dark Dice (horror D&D Actual Play) with a stunning new score by @awintory.bsky.social!

Details are "fuzzy at best," but we can promise this story will be memorable.
