Small-time animator, hobbyist streamer. Lapsed cartoonist. Enjoys indie games (especially puzzles) and does demo roundups and a few rants. Designed a minigame in 2006 that isn't playable anymore, so I'm kind of a big deal. This is not my beautiful house.

The card art for Magic the Gathering's "Touch of Brilliance" - A woman with light brown skin and long dark curly hair, colorful robes, and a small owl perched on her shoulder. She is holding an open scroll and standing in front of bookshelves and globes. She is peering over her slim spectacles and giving a sly smile to the viewer. In this edited version of the artwork, the owl has been given a cat's face from a cropped photograph, and the books have been replaced with Nintendo DS games

i'm obligated to share this when i see people learn about the SBTB revival
A portion of an advertisement for the 2020 revival of "Saved By the Bell", with an added highlight around the tagline "get so excited", a reference to the infamous 1990 episode "Jessie's Song" in which Jessie becomes a substance addict while trying to handle the combined burden of her schoolwork and preparation for her upcoming performance of the Pointer Sisters' "I'm So Excited" (the script was written to include an amphetamine addiction, but it was changed to caffeine pills to appease the network, leading to decades of mockery about the depiction of the effects of caffeine).

Figured I'd make a pinned post that covers both the fact that I am an artist and that I'm very interested in indies and puzzle games.

I also have a Steam curator page (which I should update more), in case anybody has overlapping interests
store.steampowered.com/curator/2700...
The color wheel meme, filled with drawings of eight different puzzle games: Stephen's Sausage Roll (Red), Portal (Orange), A Monster's Expedition (Yellow), Superliminal (Green), Manifold Garden (Cyan) Snakebird (Blue), Escape Goat (Purple), and The Witness (Magenta)

Mycopunk has launched into Early Access. I liked the demo, and I honestly might have to pick it up purely for them having included the Randy quote in their Steam testimonials
The "reviews" section of the Steam page for Mycopunk, featuring a quote from Randy Pitchford: "Mycopunk is cheaper than a point of meth - probably fewer side effects, too!"

The meme of two men mining in separate horizontal tunnels in a search for diamonds, except that the tunnels begin with many diamonds. The top tunnel is labeled "my friends playing Destiny 2" and shows one man turning back in disappointment when he realizes there will be no more diamonds. The second tunnel is labeled "Me playing Destiny 2" and shows the second man tunneling deeper and deeper into the unimpressive dirt despite not finding diamonds in quite some time.

it immediately read to me as one of those t-shirts that are like "the ONLY THING more badass than a CLAIMS ADJUSTER is his WIFE (and that's me!)"
a black t-shirt with the text "PLEASE DO NOT PLEASE PEE FLUSH ANYTHING INTO THE EXCEPT TOLLET!! TOILET PAPER and clean up after yourselves"

I frequently see video ads for Universal parks, and while I'm sure they were obligated to demonstrate appeal to multiple age groups, it's "interesting" (for multiple reasons) that the Potter ad features a mom in student cosplay
A screenshot of an advertisement for Universal's "How To Train Your Dragon" theme park, featuring a young girl in light armor triumphantly holding what is assumed to be a dragon egg in a room full of other cheering armored people A screenshot of an advertisement for Universal's Super Mario theme park, in which a young boy is seated in a ride themed around Super Mario Kart, waiting in anticipation for the race to begin A screenshot of an advertisement for Universal's Dracula-Wolfman-Frankenstein cinematic universe theme park, in which a young adult man seated in what appears to be an indoor coaster shouts in excitement as a wolfman leaps across the background A screenshot of an advertisement for Universal's Harry Potter theme park, in which a 40-something mother gasps in wonder and excitement to be holding a stick (understood to be a magic wand) and wearing Hufflepuff robes, meaning that she is cosplaying as a student of middle-to-high school age.
