My Mimikyu got a colour glow up.
It's been fun trying out a mixture of my and Azadouken's artstyles, & shading with masked hue/sat adjustment rather than multiply layers.

Pokeblock drawings based on chat requests over at www.twitch.tv/azadouken 's.

Absolutely beautiful, amazing quotes, and definitely something that needs to be talked about more.
this is such a beautiful post about a topic dear to me. my closest friendships are wildly intimate, best described as romantic, full of expressed love and adoration and poetic adulations

i wish for us all to lean fully into loving without fear of taboo

There often comes up the discourse of what is research, and trying to distinguish between complex scientific research, examination and experimentation vs doing some reading (fair), oftentimes to explain how experts gain a better picture (fair) and putting down people for their reading (not fair).

We're in the middle of a little blizzard, so I'm bringing some sunshine into the day with a look at the great gray owl I met last weekend. Hoping for similar luck this weekend.

This week I’ll get the paperwork for my new job + go to immigration to change my visa status.

This means I will not see a paycheck until I get my new visa, and if it takes a month to process? I won’t be paid… until March

Please help if you can!

Something positive: Spry Fox is spinning out of Netflix. We are independent (once again!) and preparing to launch Spirit Crossing.

We wrote up a little blog post musing about this wild adventure. Worth sharing the good news.

After three years under the Netflix umbrella, Spry Fox is once again a fully independent studio. As a studio, we’ve managed to somehow survive countless industry upheavals and release a whole lot o…

Crunch has led to so many disabilities it's unreal. Careers ruined. Helath destroyed. Lives messed up. Relentless physical pain.
A friend once told me he crunched from the time his daughter was born until she was 12. He took a new job so he could spend the next 5 years building a relationship with her.

But he’ll never get those 12 years back. He missed her childhood, and for what? A 91 Metacritic?
In my books, I talk about a writer who has holes in his memory from crunch. Forever. He's never getting that part of his memory--his life!--back. And for what? A video game.

I've been trying Zumba Burn It Up on the Switch and I'm glad I got it on a sale cause it's soooo barebones.

It uses only one joycon (because it focuses on the multiplayer party aspect). Can't favourite a song. Can't make a custom class unless you just pick a song one after the other.

all the three still employed game devs better work double time if they don't want to be two
It's that time of the year in gamedev!!!

Yes. The time when we talk about crunch, yet again, because some out-of-touch exec had a bad take about it and everyone that has been in the trenches agrees they're wrong and newcomers need to not fall for it.

Crunch is a failure of management. Pass it on.

CW Execution

I don't even know what to say. I'm already against capital punishment, but this is next level. Hanging? No trial? Over protests? Why is any of this a thing in 2026??

This, and the self-decided execution of Nicole Good by that ICE agent who got his feelings hurt.

I feel so helpless...
Erfan Soltani may be executed by hanging in Iran within 48 hours.
Arrested in Karaj on 9 January for joining protests, he was denied a lawyer, denied a fair trial, and sentenced to death within days. His family was given just ten minutes to say goodbye.

Preach, people!

“non-artists have gotten so used to expecting a ‘polished product’ from [generative AI tools] that it’s become hard for them to imagine what sketches or concepts might look like later down the line.”
