When I'm working fast on multiple things and I've CTRL+C'd something, I often forget what it was BUT also feel it in my head, like a mental weight.

You too?

I’m old enough that a million bucks sounds like what rich people have, not how much a two bedroom house costs.

Drinking 4-hour-old coffee is the liquid equivalent of eating a slice of pizza that fell on the floor.

Did all my team reviews for @clockworkgame.bsky.social and as a little treat, a little reward, I’m spending the rest of Friday writing a little 1000 node conversation for @clockworkgame.bsky.social.

I know it's hard to make that special thing you're trying to make right now.

But you're still needed. That thing you're creating is gonna turn someone's life around. It's gonna turn YOUR life around.

Building something out of nothing makes the world a better place, and man, do we need it.

A weekly (soon to be daily!) reminder that I need a new job!

My Narrative Design contract at InXile ends 10/17 and I would love to have something resembling gainful employment before then if at all possible.

I bet drivers carrying open racks of logs get used to people speeding nervously past them.

Despite advice to the contrary, you CAN write fiction about your own pain, but you’d better goddamn well know which parts of it are your fault.

Just got finished writing a badass combat scene and now I’m going to write a roomful of sad, angry people shouting at each other.

So basically, a different combat scene.

If there's someone doing work out there on the fringes that matters to you, please let them know, because this world is going to tell them the opposite every day.
