sometimes I might be stupid

Feeling particularly silly today, so I did a quick MIDI cover of a Brazilian choro song song Tico Tico no fubá.

Quick progress update:

I am hard at work right now, so I'll just fill yall in on what I'm doing right now:

  • I have a TG sequence and a few smaller pinup commissions to work on, as well as another sequence and a longer 4-page comic down the line.

  • Other obligations like my Curly Brace TG (woot!) and the monthly sketches also underway!

  • Also my current CYOA thing.... I'm at 11.7k words now. Kill me

I made an angry-sounding song

Or at least I wanted to -- it sorta ended up the equivalent of trying to smile while being on the verge of an anxiety attack, haha.

Update: I am safe

I'm a bit on edge because we've received 2 false evacuation alarms (confirmed to be errors). I periodically lost power but things have stabilized since yesterday, biggest safety thing to deal with is the air quality and ashes, even in areas with clear-ish skies.

My parents and close family are also safe. I had to deliver stuff like power banks to some of my relatives who also lost power for much longer, usually those living more north to where I live (the fires coming largely from the n...

Just a quick public notice

LA has been facing a crazy windstorm and subsequently wildfires since yesterday and today -- my power went out last night for a while from the former (it's back now) and some friends and family are being displaced due to the fires, and I'm on standby to help evacuate and potentially lodging. Hopefully things resolve soon but I may be quiet for a bit as we deal with this, it's been wild

Meanwhile?

My sister came in again from Vancouver for a few days as a belated holiday visit! She wasn't able to make it during the holidays themselves, but it's always very nice to have her around. My time was limited due to some of the fumfering about with art and school and that jazz, but I very much enjoyed my time with her (aside from what happened yesterday where she almost lost her phone after we left a dim sum place, we came back, discovered it was where we previously parked and someone's car had...

Work-in-progress TG CYOA poll 2!

So I received a lotta feedback from my last proposition of different concepts for a text-based TG CYOA, and while it was a close competition, I decided to go with the winning concept of "waking up in a bedroom as part of a TG-ing experiment", and I've been outlining the paths, outcomes, and general logic/design for the project! I've been making a lotta progress in it and I think I found a good system to make it al...

DnD on the brain again (and also thinking about scheduling)

(evening ramble as I'm in between working on stuff) So remember back when I said last year I wanted to host a DnD campaign and then just... kinda didn't? Yeah, sorry about that, those folks who submitted to the forms 😅 I've been thinking a lot about it again lately, and perhaps it's just because of me not having seen my IRL group in a few weeks due to the holidays, but I've been getting increasingly impati...

Blake's Holiday Spirit (SCHOOL SPIRIT Aftermath)

💋🌉🎄 "My wish this year... that you'd become happiest girl in the world."
"Never thought I'd say this, but... I'm already there. Who'd have known?"

Long-requested follow-up to SCHOOL SPIRIT! The background is reminiscent of Granville Bridge, a place in Vancouver that has a really pretty skyline and holds a lotta nostalgia to me, I felt like drawing something similar to that for personal reasons, hehe.

Happy holidays, everyone :D

Need help deciding what CYOA concept to write about!

First of all, I'm getting the Blake/GF image done, hopefully it'll be done either tonight or tomorrow! I've been doing a load of other things in the last few days, including commissions, I plan on publicly uploading completed ones in bulk by the end of the month!

Now with that out of the way, I have a quick query: a few days ago I proposed the thought of doing a text-based TG/TF CYOA thing! After reading your feedback, I'm seeing that a scifi-ish direction is the most popular suggestion...

So I finished my cover of Dallon Weekes' "Christmas Drag". Idk if I'll release this on Youtube just because I still don't think it's very good lol but may yall will get a kick out of it somehow.

Query about a small TGTF thing I wanna do!

A few days ago I got an idea it might be cool to experiment with text-based CYOAs, especially to do some kind of sequel to HAVE SOME CLASS, HERO (remember that?) I was recommended by a lot of folks to look up Twine! I started tweaking around with it and I'm thinking I wanna do a very small "test run" TGTF CYOA soon (probably in my spare time in between other projects)

Anyone got any suggestions for a theme to run for it? I don't want it to be giant right off the bat, but oooooh so many ...

idk if I should finish this

mostly because I hate my voice. It's a cover of "Christmas Drag" by Dallon Weekes (formerly of Brobecks and Panic!, now of I Don't Know How But The Found Me), one of my fav Christmas songs (in that I actually like it lol). Wanted to do a bedroom pop cover for fun but then I realized that it sounds super empty and not very holiday-y without lyrics........... and I can't sing for shit and really just don't like how I sound so I can't really iterate on it, and very quickly I had to slather the t...

So I made a 20-min stream highlights vid

Alright, this is gonna need some context: as some of yall may know, I work as an editor/videographer for a web content studio as my day job. I'm not particularly proud of the reality show-style content we produce and am looking for better opportunities. Recently, however, a popular Youtuber who I've been following for a while recently announced they were looking to hire a new video editor, and I thought "hey, that looks fun! I should apply for it and see how it goes!"

I was readying up ...
