Ok, last call! I haven't gotten very many submissions, which I'm a little surprised by. Send this to your artist friends!

I can also go through previous pitches, but I always like having a wide rolodex.

Gary is back for one week only because:

We need new album art for our CRPG podcast Real Lich Hours. Next season we're tackling Planescape: Torment!

lgtbq+bipoc encouraged to submit, it's a paid gig.

Send me your samples at [email protected]

Please retweet and spread the word!

I keep reposting this because I need submissions! Sorry for the spam.

I also don't know if me being gone and not posting much is making my posts get lost in the shuffle.

Depends on when you signed up!

Ok, I did this and sent out my first thingie. Deleting this account in about a week.

Cozy Snugglefield @garybutterfield.bsky.social · Aug 29

Ok! I'm leaving this site soon. If you want to get periodic emails from me, here's a link. I did the free plan, so it's limited, but I don't think I'll run up against the limit

That joke is very good

Yeah, I take it in the intended way. I would do the newsletter not as a productivity thing, but a way to process/externalize some stuff that might be an awkward fit for the show, or I don't want to entrap Kaye into feeling pressured to cosign. But yeah, that need is definitely at the root

I fucking hate this bucket dude

I'll probably talk at length about why I'm leaving in the first update!

Also, if you need to get my attention for work or something, I'm gary at duckfeed.tv

I'll let everyone know if I've discovered the cure for online.

Yeah, that site shut down, sadly.

Cozy Snugglefield @garybutterfield.bsky.social · Aug 29

If I stopped using this site and just started like, an email newsletter, would that work?

The vibes are just so fucking rancid. Taking some time off and then like, dipping your toe in, it feels like dipping your toe in acid. Why did I subject myself to this this time? Why did I historically do it all day, all the time, for years? jfc

Made a huge mistake and cruised the timeline a bit. Internet fucking sucks now, stop it.

Like, if it makes you feel less alone, hooray, but I can't imagine it makes anyone feel good overall.

Replaying Shovel Knight on my working vacation, and this level is both A) Fucking diabolical and B) has one of my favorite pieces of video game music ever www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywaT...

I might write a spec script for BOPPER, which will be about this. He trudges across the midwest to get to the show on time, carrying his buddies, because that's what he liiiiiikes

Whenever they make a movie about "the day the music died" they just get a random big dude to play the big bopper. He doesn't get a movie, we just have someone who looks like 1998 PFT to shiver a second and get on the plane.

Cyberpunk does it, but I think the first time I saw it was in Watchdogs.

I don't mind a skill tree provided the skills are all meaningful, but that almost never happens. +30% shotgun damage against moving vehicles that have started a small business in a disenfranchised community shit.

It's a real problem! Even in Elden Ring, it sort of topped out at "I don't mind it" and it straight up fucks up some games I'd otherwise like, like HZD. It's a scourge
