I'm ecstatic to announce I now have my own personal website! It took a lot of tweaking, but I'm very happy with how it turned out.

Walked about 21,000 steps yesterday in the heart of Vancouver yesterday, then played a fun set with @thennecan.bsky.social at the Pearl. Thanks for an unforgettable night, @bonusstagevan.bsky.social ! Hope I'll get to come visit again someday.

PSA: deep dish pizza is the longest running scam in the fast food industry. you get roughly double the volume of dough, but the ingredients don't proportionally increase. yet few people complain.
imagine if you bought a burrito that had a 2:1 tortilla:stuffing ratio. you'd be livid!

nearly every guitarist eventually yearns for the yoke of simplicity on stage, for better or worse. i love my digital rig, but there's something freeing about running direct into an amp and not having to worry about any of the minutiae that should only matter in the studio.

even a cheap melitta pour-over cone can make better coffee than a pod machine.
please stop using keurigs and git gud. you'll probably even be healthier for it in the long run, because those machines attract tons of microbes and accumulate mold.

oh wait i see it now, by [gdc] they mean "gamedev detention camp", because it's where international attendees risk ending up. they even included the brackets to symbolize the fences. 💀
i don't know why anyone would attempt coming right now. it's way too dangerous.

watching the working class collectively fumble at achieving class consciousness is frustrating. everyone implicits understands the system is broken, but few realize it's designed to fence you in. it's a midway game designed to take as much of your resources as possible. there is no prize, just bait.

(Sigh.) In a few hours, I need to take a trip to Switzerland for my grandfather's funeral, and I have 20 bucks to my name.
If anybody is able to help me cover the (not already otherwise) covered expenses of the trip, I would be massively grateful.

they're not even trying to make their arguments against green energy intelligible or coherent anymore. the status quo is relying entirely on voters being gullible dumb fucks who will believe anything FOX tells them to.
unfortunately for the rest of us, this appears to be a winning strategy.

Hey, #gameaudio and #composer folk. I don't want to keep supporting Microsoft when they're doing stuff like this, so I want to divest myself of them completely. Is there a Linux distro that's VST and DAW-friendly? Or am I up shit creek?
