Every now and again, something reminds me that the song "Nobody" by Skindred exists, and I am utterly delighted to rediscover it.

Sometimes that ends up with me rocking out to it at 2AM in the bathroom while I'm getting ready for bed, but nonetheless...

I loved it. I was terrible at inventory management and combat, but I LOVED the story and really want to see what the other endings are like (but I'm avoiding looking them up--I wanna play them). And the visuals were INCREDIBLE.

STREAM CRASHED, BUT IT'S BACK NOW

Ian Doherty @idoherty451.bsky.social · 7d

SLIGHT DELAY ON TONIGHT'S STREAM: I'm on the final boss of Silent Hill f. I AM BEATING THIS GAME BEFORE I STREAM. However, the stream probably won't start until 7:30 at the earliest. I'll try to post if anything changes.

As someone with a very loud brain that I like to try and silence with lots of loud things (video, radio, music, etc)... I am so mad that the best thing to do is to actually just sit in silence without moving for a full half an hour. Game changing. Silences the brain completely for hours.

Absolute royalty. Thank you for sharing their excellence with me.

Having a particularly bad head day today. Feeling discouraged about the job search. Not being very kind to myself.

If you've got some good news, whether from your own life or life in general, I'd love to hear it. Or, failing that, pictures of cute animals are also acceptable.

I've heard this from multiple established writers also. Just in the five or so years I've been giving creative careers talks, my advice has gone from opportunities lists and grants to "do whatever you can to survive".

Dragons of Wales @dragonsofwales.bsky.social · 22d

Screenshot of text, written by me, which reads:

“A message to any early-career creatives, wondering if things have always been this tough:

No. No they haven’t. I’ve been doing this for 30 yrs, through recessions, financial crashes, pandemics and wars. It has *NEVER* been this tough, not even close.

But please, PLEASE keep going if you can.
Your work has never been more needed or more important.”

Preparing for my demo on "Blank Fairy" (or "Black Fairy"? It's listed as both in different places) for my final #SH2 Remake stream on Wednesday. This is definitely going to be my most involved--I'm finally getting into the actual production and use of samples. But I think it's going to be worth it.

Ian Doherty @idoherty451.bsky.social · 23d

So excited for a new, original story from these two. Listened to this first episode, and it's SICK (in more ways than one) (complimentary).

"Some Dark Magik" was added to the New In Punk playlist on Apple Music! We mixed this track in Dolby Atmos and honestly the Atmos mix is the best way to hear it.

Apple Music subscribers, please click here to support. The more streams, the longer we stay on the playlist! music.lnk.to/F5iQsd
