Is there some kind of life hack for what to do when you keep seeing a rogue eyelash out of the corner of your eye 😩

It’s Monday everyone, and you know what that means. It’s time to make something! Do it! Don’t let this day pass you by without making something. If you’re stumped, grab a pen and doodle on something for 30 secs and then take a pic of it and send it to a pal. Good doodlin’ day to you all. ❤️

I feel like game audio is 90% problem solving and 10% holy shit that sounds rad. Some days it flips and those are the days that keep us going. Let’s do it palz.

To my game audio budz out there… your work matters, even if your colleagues or your players don’t always *consciously* notice it. Trust!

Fam. Sometimes you just gotta listen to the Wonder Dog soundtrack, okay? Especially Track 17.

It’s Saturday! Your mission is to make something today. Doesn’t matter what it is, doesn’t matter if it’s “good” or “bad” — all that matters is that it’s you that made it. Good luck!

Saw a guy with a shirt that said “Ted Cruz is the Zodiac Killer.” Had to Google it. How did I miss this?

My aunt passed away and I found this record among her things.

Every night I'm like, tomorrow morning I have an hour without meetings and I'm gonna focus on THIS ONE THING... never happens. But it's okay, I can carve that one thing up into 17 3.75-minute chunks and do it throughout the day at the most inopportune times possible.
