Today we lost our perfect boy, Fiyero. I’m devastated, frankly, and I’m barely holding it together.
Fiyero spent most days being loving and present, opting to stay nearby during even the busiest of days. He was my shadow, truly, and I don’t know if I’ll ever feel whole again without him.

This is what you should get loud about. If you have any Republican representatives, call them now -and repeatedly. Do what you can to stop this from passing.
This is a nightmare.

One of the best games of the 32-bit era. I think @samueldeats.bsky.social and I played it non-stop for years.
Heyhey, it's the 30th anniversary of the release of GUARDIAN HEROES! Treasure's synth and sax-infused Sega Saturn 'Fighting RPG'.
Here's a snazzy bit of concept artwork of the main chars. But yeah, it's an audio-visual treat, and a real blast to play if you're fond of brawlers with some EXTRA. 🔥

So many people over decades have been called conspiracy theorists for suggesting that U.S. intervention is driven by capitalist interests, and the interests of the oil industry in particular. Now the president just says it outright in press conferences and interviews.
Q: China, Russia, and Iran have interests in Venezuela. How does this operation affect your relationships with them?
TRUMP: In terms of other countries that want oil, we're in the oil business. We're gonna sell it to them. We'll be selling oil.

I’ve curated a starter pack to make it easier to find artists working in animation on Bluesky! (If you qualify but aren’t on this list let me know, I will fill it up until it hits the 150 limit!)

Hello! It's been a year and some change since I was laid-off from my previous job, and I'd love a new one.
My name is Steve and I have 7 years of experience in the animation industry as a background artist and illustrator. I've worked on shows like Castlevania, and card games like MtG!

If your game has voice acting, then working with the voice actors is half of your writing process. It's not complete until you've heard it interpreted and reimagined by a voice actor. And they always reimagine it in ways that elevate the writing, in ways you never would have imagined yourself.

The worst part of being a former guidebook author is that I have BOXES of old books I worked on, along with friend’s books AND Japanese book references. I can’t bring myself to just get rid of them…it’s the worst when moving. 😭

We’re moving to a new place, which means several boxes of Castlevania merch and games are going into storage. Goodnight, my loves. See you soon.

I did this the other day. There were two people sitting outside of a place for some sort of survey or donations and one of them commented on my CV shirt. They then started telling their coworker/friend about how much they liked the show, and I just smiled and slinked away like a weirdo. 😬😂
@samueldeats.bsky.social is weird about telling people he worked on Castlevania so when the hotel employee commented on his CV shirt and started talking about the final battle in S4 Sam was like haha yeah that one was difficult and the guy was like haha yeah?

Hrm, the plot thickens — it appears several book listings on LibGen have incorrect crediting, which means the list of books Anthropic mined may be WAY bigger than authors know. I found several of my old Brady Games books on there, incorrectly credited.
Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.
OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
