I've gotten so used to having a crappy landlord that when my new landlord let us know months in advance about lease renewal AND that he isn't raising rent for the year I had to stare at my phone a long minute to process

apollo turned 10 this month happy birthday to this little booger

accidentally requested a tattoo in Canada and now I am getting a tattoo in Canada ack, the consequences of my own actions

why does the project hail mary soundtrack go so unreasonably hard

man it rules here

This hoppy okapi is growing up fast 🦓

not to brag but I got a 100% on my marine ecology course project proposal so I'm basically an expert on salt marsh restoration clearly

Just because he backed off shouldn’t stop efforts to remove him. He is dangerous and cannot be left in power.

Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide. Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session. Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.

How it feels doing literally any task right now.

I've been at my job for nearly 3 years???? wh a t when did that happen 🫪

realizing I'm the friend that's always off on random side quests in the group chat anyway helped restore dune grass today

cosplaying as the guy from the Pitt

anyway idk why I have a full time job and grad school bc all I want to do is finish writing my books

project hail mary was so good and reminds me why I'm a sci fi author

Some siamese cat colors. 🦭

Mama rapidash with her newborn ponyta

trying to learn about fish locomotion and phytoplankton distribution and biomass sequestration and salt marsh blue carbon while also making Videogame while also having a garden to plan and doing illustration and also having a sinus infection is going very well for me why do you ask I'm so tired

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

I think often of a New York Times photo of a little Iraqi girl tending to her parakeets in a bombed house, probably from 20 years ago now. I will think of this man and his sweet dog often now too. People just want to love what they love, care for their little beings, and instead we do this to them

I hate this idea that gen ai in the early stages of development is okay as long as there isn't gen AI assets in the final game. Everything in early development informs the final game. I don't want this to become the norm 🫩

grad school has turned me into the side quest machine observe a riparian zone? draw creatures smaller than a dinner plate? on it chief

making videogames by day studying fucked up little guys by night

At chili’s

Fluffy timberdoodle

I miss drawing unicorns (and horses in general) and I think I'll have to get back to it soon. 🐎

i miss Chiapas but I love New York

i love coming home and getting out of the airport bc I think about how tourists visiting for the first time immediately get people yelling and honking nothing like the true NYC experience 🤌

Fantastic news! 🦋🦋 Link to full report in 🧵 www.worldwildlife.org/news/stories...

I think the most depressing thing is that all of us are insaneñy talented and just want to make videogames no idea why that's so hard

Small note. Mass layoffs like these are also a tactic to devalue the work because workers become more desperate while companies create false scarcity. Do not, ever, forget your worth. Don’t let them win. You make this industry exist. They don’t.

when does it end man

thinking of my epic friends today 😔

4/4 flights with an empty seat next to me I am god

not to brag but I went here today

every day it all gets worse and worse and worse and worse

I was in multiple rooms at GDC where management of games studios let their hair down and said "everyone's using it, gamers hate it so we just have to hide it now", but none were actually able to explain if and how AI were making games faster to develop or better at all

anyway everyone has been like wow ur Spanish is so good and it's got me flexing i worked so hard!!! I'm proud

me: I am going to mexico ppl: wow have fun at the beach! me: no not that mexico

yeah it rules here

Same sentiment imo as “don’t worry about AI, I think people will always make art ❤️” like cool but also I have spent twenty years building a career actually and I have bills

what if I just don't come home ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

current view of me living my best life

I love being in Mexico so much this country rules man

wind makes me so anxious, really triggers my prey brain

March thunderstorms is crazy work honestly

I keep going bc I know if I let myself rest I'm going to crash out, i am so fried
