I got the opposite problem, I'll infodump about it a bunch, then feel really bad for a while and not speak much.

Heading back to Montreal tonight. I only get to spend one day in Montreal, then I fly to Dallas for HarmonyCon.
That's pretty tight timing, that'll be stressful.

Had a dream last night where I was naked at a pony convention.
I think that's a first.

I ended up with a bunch of painful blisters on my hands. It's not bad enough to prevent me from animating, but also I want to be careful since I'll need my hands a lot at the convention.
I had a similar issue at The Hearth's Warming Club, and I was barely able to use my right hand for the whole con.

So a little bit of an update on projects, I'm still in my hometown. I was supposed to return to Montreal tonight but I changed my schedule a bit.
We got new dialogue recorded, so I'm stuck doing a lot of lipsync for a while.
I also have to organize a bunch of panel stuff for HarmonyCon.

I still remember that one guy who made a post talking about how much of a gamechanger it was to have an NFT profile pic since it was breaking from the norms of using photos.
Furries have known that for decades.

I know short form content isn't everyone's favourite, but it's been a pretty effective way for me to infodump about animation to curious people.
It'd be nice if the market wasn't so saturated with slop, but that's a bit out of my control.

So this week's short talking about Adobe is done and will release on Friday.
The sound is a bit different, turns out I didn't have the proper settings to record with my microphone until this one.

It's always annoying when hair stylists trim too much, but at least it'll regrow.
