my current hyperfixation is modifying my dining table to be a TTRPG table, how can i turn doing this into an audio roleplay so i actually get paid for it

oh, also - happy new year

i have to do something important. i need to make Art. i must leave something behind, make my mark on the world, be remembered. i want to create something that makes people feel big things. i have to.

my favourite bit of lord of ring is when grand elf is like "you're not allowed to come over here" to the bullfrog

a short local theatre run of a play i was in finished a few days ago and i'm going to miss it so much. spending 3 evenings each week rehearsing, making art with real people in-person, was so nice. i really needed it. anyway sorry for the little unannounced hiatus, more audio coming this week.

i’m really struggling

got banned from overwatch for being too sexy

just found out Emile in Ratatouille ISN’T played by Wayne Knight and my life will never be the same again

i really truly cannot stand the trend of CoNtEnT cReAtOrS holding lavalier microphones instead of clipping them on. if you want to hold your microphone that’s fine, but why not simply get a mic that’s designed to be used that way???

cock and balls

trans people are so fucking admirable man. like there are a bunch of things in my life that i'd like to change that would be way easier to change than my whole ass GENDER, but i don't do it. trans people just go for it. they whole-ass gender. it's so sick

life’s like cock and ball torture… without the torture

seeing all the props start to appear and the sets coming together and everybody going off-book is THRILLING!

if your system relies on colour to discern status then it is ableist. i’m colourblind, and i have no idea if this broadband router status light is yellow, orange or green. sick of it

this stream just wasn’t meant to be. sorry folks! i’m going to bed

whisper into my ear a spooky game for playing

most of the sound effects i use come from a library, but it is very satisfying when i occasionally need something super specific that i can't find but am able to record perfectly myself. most recently this was the sound of a glass jar of honey being opened. very tingly sound.

there’s not much that gives me more second-hand embarrassment than that particular personality type that’s prone to contrarianism, intellectual snobbery, cultural elitism etc. makes my skin crawl

i have just finished reading the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb and it is really really good. BIG recommend. it took me most of the first book to really get into it, because it was completely different than what i was expecting, but i’m glad i stuck with it

the answer to my audio woes was 32-bit float recording. can’t believe i didn’t try this sooner. there is practically infinite headroom compared to the traditional 24-bit. this is fantastic

really wish i could share more about the (amateur) stage play i’m in because ngl i am doing some shit hot acting work in this. like i am GOOD.

here is a fun little tidbit of analytics info - putting the p logo + the 🔞 emoji in my thumbnails has *always* increased click-through. i've done this test a bunch of times

someone please come and reorganise my office and plug my external monitors in so i can stream. i’ve had a massive dysfunctional block on this task for over a month

I haven’t got to sleep before 4am or got more than five hours of sleep in a night for weeks. i’m exhausted lads

i wanna play Alien: Isolation again

oh, i've been doing this a little over 3 years now. nice

i am once again unsatified with my audio quality. i am constantly chasing some idea of perfection that i don't even know exists, but i know for sure i am not anywhere near there yet. all my stuff is too loud, and my workflow cannot handle higher dynamic ranges at all. i want to do things properly.

i don't like idioms in general. they are sometimes useful for conveying thoughts to others, but most of the time they get in the way of critical thinking. "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" is an especially bad one. why not? it is good to hone and perfect things after getting to a "good enough" state

the last time i posted asking for artist recs on twitter the replies were filled with bots. maybe bsky better. HELLO i need artists to commission for thumbnail art for my silly little asmr roleplays. tight turnaround time (3-4 days usually) because i'm a dysfunctional fool. recs in replies please!!

scared of streaming again. want to, but scared

gonna get a cat and name it Michael and insist that everybody calls him Michael. NEVER Mike or Mikey or anything - ONLY Michael. or perhaps Jonathan. same rules

my life is just one big cock-and-ballathon

my studio is finally all back together in my new home. tomorrow i’ll be recording some new stuff, and i reckon within the next two weeks i’ll be streaming on twitch again!

the Online Safety Act 2023 should be repealed. sign this, please: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

1 week to go until i move into my new place. it can't come soon enough. i am going to record and stream so much.

i hate the word “lose”. the spelling NEVER looks right, it looks like it should be pronounced like the o in load or nose

cum

oh, to anybody i am currently collaborating with: i’m going to hold off on recording any collab project audio until i have my new studio on the 28th. my quality won’t be acceptable to me until then

this sounds awful. i am so demoralised and absolutely sick of this living situation. i need my own studio space again.

it is recorded and i will do my very best to complete the edit and have it uploaded TODAY!!

moving into a new place of my own on the 28th and that day can't come soon enough. where i'm staying now has been a huge barrier to recording on a regular basis. my output will increase so much when i have a proper studio space again.

alas, the last patreon exclusive i recorded is completely unusable. recording gear problems. i will re-record and edit it tomorrow. very sorry for the delays

editing now: final part of the phasmid asmr beauty and the beast-inspired series. early access for patrons later today, and a SPICY extended cut tomorrow

of all the fictional characters to have rabid “stans” who’ll jump down the throat of anybody who dares criticise him, Tom bloody Bombadildo is not one i expected

if you have to tell people you’re a merry fellow, how merry a fellow can you really be

this is now a Tom Bombadil hate account and i’m going to start things off by saying that i’m a merrier fellow than he could EVER hope to be

as soon as LOTR is in the public domain, i will publish a version of it with Tom Bombadil completely removed. i hate that cunt. what was Tolkien thinking

if i hear a youtuber (especially someone making “video essay” type stuff) repeatedly mispronounce a word, i immediately lose all respect for them
