We only get one spin on this blue ball, so seriously, go make stuff. Learn things. Stay out of the comfort bubble and be kind.
I'm a writer, marketing person, artist.

Bastion stands up and screams his mother's name after the Childlike Empress pleads with him through the pages of the book.
Bullies jump out from behind the shelves, phones in hand...
"HAHA, did you see that,Todd!? I told you he'd fall for it if I wrote that book."

More important now than ever to glom onto what makes you happy and sane.
So for me that's glomming onto those that make things. The writers, the illustrators, the filmmakers, the comics people, the painters, the nerds, the geeks, the birdwatchers, the photographers etc.

I have a nice camera and apropos of nothing I've been taking pictures of the phases of the moon (among other things)
It's been fun and it actually makes cloudy days a bummer.
Here's what I have so far.

It is absolutely disgusting how well I know this game. Last night, I finally got the last trophy.
Now I have this relief and emptiness.
It's only a matter of time before I play either Bioshock, Dishonored, or Mass Effect again to fill the void.
Or I guess I could write more...

In other news here's a bird.
I'm doing 3 things today.
Taking pictures of birbs, writing, and skateboarding. It's up to you to imagine me doing it all three at the same time.
I deserve it.
I cleaned the inside of my hell stove.

I think people used to be in the Cars universe.
Cars are basically animals. They have waste, they need fuel, cooling, energy, specific "nutrients," lubrication...
They just don't self repair or steer themselves or feed themselves...yet.
We're so obsessed with AI and self driving cars. Wars comin.

I guess it's time to break out the leaf blow....me
Let the leaves fall. It's called fall.
The leaves are good. They're pretty. Your lawn sucks. Your leaf blower sucks which I suppose is kind of ironic.

I really love this world.
Each character has a vast history and a proper development arc. ...And I hear the voice of every character as soon as I see their face.
They're silly but I end up rooting for all of them. The story is excellent.
God I want to write a VB book or comic book series.

I've on a Venture Bros kick lately. My 4th time rewatching.
What always gets me (aside from the big laughs) is the rich world-building. It started as this parody show of old action cartoons and built this amazing mythology of its own.
Been doodling a lot of VB characters for inktober.
