My blonde cavapoo jumping up onto my wife’s lap from my wife’s perspective. It’s outside in the daytime. The ground is flagstone.

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy. Not a selfie.

A weird reptile kinda alien wearing a flowing rainbow robe honking on some bizarre alien wind instrument with a bunch of bright lights in the background as well as other aliens staring at them. This alien is super awkward also lol

You ever have those days when you could just sit and watch “How It’s Made” for 72 hours straight?

Just got off the phone with my 91 year old grandpa, and he still knows everyone’s birthdays and can still joke about the weather. ❤️

I made a sample library out of this cool instrument called "kenari chimes." It's kind of like a mark tree, or a rain stick! And it's FREE!

Here's where you can nab it, if you like!

Today’s my birthday, and this year, I thought I’d give something in return. These are kenari chimes. I made a virtual instrument out of them. It’s free. You can get it here.

One thing I appreciate about my Bluesky feed is seeing posts in other languages. One thing I DON’T appreciate is finding out how poor my foreign language skills are😅

Same! Prolly cause they were layered with explosions an roars recorded super hot to tape for some unsubtle saturation maybe? Same reason I love the Indiana Jones punch sounds, they’re super unrealistic in the best possible way. Also, not as much super high end.

It’s a pretty warm day lol

But this gig is pretty awesome every time

A large shot of the Estudillo Mansion in San Jacinto. It’s an old 1800s brick mansion surrounded by trees which is then surrounded by a bright dirt. There is a stage setup on the lawn. In the background there is a Gazebo and an old white barn. It’s a completely clear blue sky.
