Might be a few minutes late today, but still aiming to do today's Final Fantasy III (Famicom) livestream at approximately 12:00 Noon PST. We're still in the first half of the game, so there's still a lot to enjoy. Link to come in the next post when the stream is getting started.

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Of course I would say this, but we need to talk about the moral & ideological case for play & leisure more than ever. So much political discourse - especially from the super-rich - assumes we ought to construct society around forcing citizens to spend most of their one, unrepeatable life working.

Begging some of you to understand that a voice actor acknowledging or putting out a video message as a character they used to voice - even when there’s a new VA - is not disrespectful.
If Jaleel White recorded himself as Sonic today, would you descend on him angrily and accuse him of disrespect?

Buy it or not, but the best thing you can do for my music's future is to download/rip files of it to a cool music app/device and show it to me
You can find the files. My music is free-flowing. If you feel like you'd never hear me again if I left Spotify, that is an issue between you and Spotify.

I've been seeing this headline floating around. To be clear:
1) This is "No. 1" on a miniscule chart, The "Country Digital Song Sales" chart, as in people actually paying money to download country songs which is a tiny amount of people
2) The actual consumers are almost certainly fake

glad to see pushback
learning and skill growth happen when what we knew going into a problem weren't enough to answer and move on. AI flatters you to feel you know enough to get an answer out (often not right, but even if it were!), user doesn't have to become more capable, becomes dependent on it.
