Overheard during tech rehearsal: "Could you standby?" "Already am. I don't know any other way to be." 🩷💜💙

Geordie Theatre presents Snow White by Greg Banks, running from April 16-26, 2026 at Centaur Theatre. Read or listen to our Stage Left Q&A feature to learn more about the show: www.quebecdrama.org/the-overture... (FR below)

Don't mind me, just accidentally taking the extremely scenic route home (yes I ran and got on the train going the wrong direction because I entered the station from a different place than usual).

Tomorrow afternoon we begin our character creation sessions for #Datafall - an Exalted 3rd edition Sidereal campaign set in a cyberpunk shard of Creation. At 2:00pm EDT on YouTube.com/@RPGClinic come meet Scott's character! (Alas, #ExalTwitch makes less sense now that we're on YT)

I (finally) got a phone case last weekend and it already has confetti in it. It's not even from a show I worked on. It came in on the dance floor.

Momentarily considered live-streaming from tech this weekend but then thought the better of my likelihood to take it seriously:

Two recommendations from one sitting. 1) Project Hail Mary was lovely. 2) @runpeeapp.bsky.social took a few minutes to set up beforehand but worked perfectly in notifying me (with a single watch buzz) for a genuinely skippable flashback ~90 minutes in.

Today I fell down a rabbit hole and came out more powerful than ever before. ... In terms of stream overlay technology. #Datafall is shaping up to be quite fantastic.

@remgrandmtl.bsky.social Les annonces des horaires modifiées dans les stations sont bienvenues, mais est-ce que c'est possible d'ajouter un petit son en avant? J'ai sauté chaque fois ce soir.

Too many hats today (incl. running a Q2Q for a show I've never seen a rehearsal or run of). Thursday I get to start taking some off. Glad to be helping things come together but I'm really looking forward to next week when I'll have only the one job.

Best cue note ever? #NoTakeOnlyThrow

Uhh forgive my ignorance but how can a MLB team be playing two games at the same time?

hi i sent u my LX plot pls respond

Small update pushed today to r0b0.ca/netrunner and my google Sheets creations.

Wearing PM and SM hats today for two different productions. Good chance of a TD and/or sound design hat to boot. Slight risk of LX and Video in the forecast. I guess that dictionary prediction had merit.

Haven't had my transit fare verified in years. Now I've had it checked three times in two days.

As a Montrealer it is deeply confusing to be cheering on the team that's *facing* uniforms that are blue white and red.

Age verification? My house had just one rotary phone (with a very long cord) when I started high school.

CBC just did something I really like. Watching the Olympics live on the CBC Gem app, I paused it to go refill my coffee. The app brought up a still frame ad on the screen, with the option to dismiss it (like if I was trying to look at a freeze-frame). 10/10 way better than interrupting content.

Happy biennial international display of the performing arts! I'm (un)fortunately working on the performing arts all day and will have to catch reruns of the opening ceremony tomorrow.

No coffee in the rehearsal hall so I'm spending my dinner break in this extremely liminal hallway. At least I have risers to keep me company!

Thanks to having to tally my work history for a system not designed for contract workers, I'm pretty sure I hit my 75th production in a SM capacity last year.

I love the REM but it's hilarious to see it getting roasted on its own screens. (Also can they please get off Twitter and post service updates to a social media site you don't have to log in to read? Like, I dunno, BlueSky? )

Interview question: "So let's say you were asked to join a production the week of shows starting - what would you do?" Me: *answers this hypothetical* 90 minutes later, my phone rings. "So you said you could join a production the week of shows starting..." Holy bait-and-switch Batman.

It's only been 367 days and the world is already a very different place. January 2029 feels very far away.

8pm: Coffee and Froyo 9pm: Couch potato 11pm: Brain go zoom 1am: Brain still go zoom I knew I was digging my own grave when I did it.

Appropriate, but based on the cricket orchestra that was 2025 I'm going to have to press X to doubt.

i'm having a lovely last day of the year and everything is exploding outside so i coded some fireworks today! absolutely no concern for performance this WILL make your phone heat up orteil.dashnet.org/fireworks.html

T-minus 3.5 hours to find out if all my pre-programming makes sense and flows smoothly. It's tough when you're handing it off to be filled with secrets.

As patches set upon a little breach Discredit more in hiding of the fault Than did the fault before it was so patch’d.

We're finally getting around to playing the one-shot I made a while back, inspired by 200 word RPGs. Our stream is this Saturday, but you can getthe current rules for free over on our Patreon page: www.patreon.com/posts/major-...

It's start of a new chapter - but first, the end of a long one! Thanks for 10 fantastic years, Twitch community!

Which trailers excited you from The Game Awards? I don't seem to be the target demo for this year's trailers, but I liked the joy in a few: - The Free Shepherd (dog!) - Orbitals (80s anime co-op!) - Coven of the Chicken Foot (old witch + monster friend!) - Out of Words (stop motion co-op!)

We're moving & having a marathon to celebrate! On December 20 & 21 we'll be hosting extra-long streams on our YouTube channel to kick off our switch to our new streaming home. To Twitch, we say: Thank you, goodbye. Sat Dec 20: One-shots & game shows! Sun Dec 21: WtA: Montreal by Moonlight Ep 100!

Cartoon: My gift to you at this risky time of year. Feel free to print and share.

So uh, it's been 2 months and still no batteries in stock. Hello from my new (non-pixel) phone. Please catch me up on the best of Bluesky since (and including) Halloween!

Vanishing off the municipal electors list? Not great. It taking less than 5 minutes to get verified from the comfort of my home? Super great.

Not a bad view from just outside the venue.

This. The Pixel 7a's battery is busted. Thankfully it seems I can get a free replacement, but watching my phone go "70% - warning low battery - 18% 15% - 9% - 7% - powering off" before my eyes as I'm trying to figure out how to get home at night in a transit strike has been "fun".

Lovelies, meet Brian the Bard! You'll be crossing paths with him on and off throughout the 2025 edition of Loktober, starting tomorrow! #inktober #inktober2025 #loktober #dnd #dnd5e #dndart #rpg #ttrpg #fantasy #fantasyart

Two gig opportunities have come up this week but require resume reformats I don't have time for due to tech week. Do I just send my default and hope, or wait for when I have time despite the gigs being quite last-minute postings?

Talking Silksong before the show? ★★★★★ I've had a lot of great artists on my comedy gigs this year, yet they somehow keep getting better.

every time

Today's gigs: From rehearsals in a room behind a pretty chapel (probably deconsecrated?) to a comedy show in a gritty club (I love it but it's not a fancy place).

Not me checking the news page of @remgrandmtl.bsky.social daily to see whether they've announced the launch date yet. I am once again transiting around the mountain to get to work, whereas I'd be able to take the REM right through it... Soon™

Putting the Fit in our Honda Fit. One hundred-player live-streamed-with-commentary card tournament coming right up! @netrunner.nullsignal.games 's Americas Continental Championship @ Montréal kicks off at 1:30pm today. Catch it all on youtube.com/@nullsignalg...

Canadian coins. Toonie. 1/5

yeah
