Gah this reminds me so much of an office I used to work at.
My gremlin self shaking my gremlin self by the shoulders. Gremlin 1, indifferent to what's happening: I'm a little bummed that I no longer have the lever of output I had in my 20s and 30s. Am I washed up? Gremlin 2, yelling: YOU'RE OLDER AND YOUR LIFE IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NOW! YOU JUST GOT PAST BURNOUT! YOU HAVE MORE RESPONSIBILITIES! THE WORLD IS HELL!!
Me VS Me
My average experience trying to RP with anyone
Me: *Writing my next story for publication*
My brain: Okay, but what if THIS were the situation, instead?
Me: Oh shit! That IS better! *writes it furiously down!*
Next story is up!
It was inspired by the music video for "Now and Then," the last Beatles song released in 2023. Watch it if you haven't: youtu.be/Opxhh9Oh3rg?...

I'm still learning to pace myself to avoid burnout. Going forward, I'm limitng myself to two stories a month.
Next story is finally done - "Uneasy Lies the Head."

Update: There'll be a delay in getting the next story out. I'm not feeling well today.
It's almost done, so I hope to release it by tomorrow.
Rendered out some new animation for an upcoming collab with author Daniel Siceloff (www.dssiceloff.com) and his new book series.
I've been trying to comp things to give off the vibe of an 80's cartoon. Still figuring things out, but I've learned some new tricks.
As promised, here's the next story - The Homecoming.
A man returns home to visit his parents after being away for seven years. The twist? His home is a haunted house and he was raised by the ghosts.

First of what I hope will be a regular series of short stories. Trying to post one every 2 weeks. This one's a sci fi piece called "The Last Thanksgiving."

My creativity has two settings:
- Hyperfocused explosion
- Blood from a stone
I highly recommend this Netflix miniseries. I'm only two episodes in but it's just so poignant and thought provoking.

RPG design notes: Though I started with a good idea of a base system, I find I'm discovering ways I want to adjust it organically as I figure out HOW I want the system to resolve different in-game events and actions.
Me anytime I see my Redditt reply count go above 10: Ohfuckohfuckohfuck they all hate me
Retired captain. Deeply misses it. Misses the sea so so much. For medical reasons he literally can't be exposed to salt water.
Gets a landlubber romance. Who works out a way to treat his exposure just enough that he can be on the shore.
They make love for the first time to the sound of the surf.

Artists create universes from nothing.
Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.
Create NSFW art
Porn is not evil, sex is not abhorrent, pleasure is not a crime
Even if you don't agree with all kinks doesn't mean they should be allowed to censor art
This is why we have tags and the blick button, not megacorps deciding what we can and cannot like
Always resist oppression
