My name is David M. Briggs, but everybody calls me either Dave or Hal. I am a mid-30s Midwestern writer, designer, performer and enthusiast who is full of love and poetry and breakfast cereal. davidmbriggs.com

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back

You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

Little update: Next Wednesday, New Years Eve, for our anniversary, @chironseye.bsky.social and I will be starting a playthrough of Haven from 12-4 PM ET to raise funds for Trans Lifeline. But tonight's stream has hit a snag: I apparently don't have the right equipment to pick up PS3 audio.

As such, we won't be doing Zone of the Enders until I can find a workable solution to this problem, but in the meantime, since Haven will probably take up our Wednesdays for a while, I think we'll be moving Mega Man to Saturdays.

Jesus, can you hear me? Good, the comms are working. Now, you're gonna need to run if you want to evade those Roman soldiers. Hold down A to sprint. Go ahead and try it. ... Good work! You just might be the savior yet. Now pick up that AR-15 and let's do some target practice.
